  • Patent number: 5005548
    Abstract: A fuel injection pump is proposed in which over a first portion of the supply stroke of the pump piston fuel for the main injection is pumped via a distributor line and a distributor groove into one at a time of a plurality of fuel injection lines. In a second, remaining portion of the pump piston supply stroke, on the same cam flank, fuel is then pre-stored in a reservoir, controlled by a first electrically controlled valve and a second electrically controlled valve and by one of a plurality of longitudinal control grooves, which fuel subsequently, before the beginning of the next main injection determined by the closure of the first electrically controlled valve, is pumped via a second distributor line into the next succeeding injection line.

  • Patent number: 4972817
    Abstract: An apparatus for motor vehicles having traction control and/or anti-lock brakes. In a known apparatus, a distinction can be made between an unregulated and a regulated operating stage. In the regulated operating state, the position of a control device is determined by means of a control motor. In the unregulated operating state, a position of an operating element is transmitted to a control device with the aid of the transmission device. When the operating element is adjusted and the control device is restored by a restoring spring, however, a rotor of a control motor is adjusted along with them. This requires great actuation forces and a strong restoring spring. In this system, a third rotary element is provided. In the unregulated operating state, the third rotary element returns to a position of repose. In that case there is then no longer any operative connection between the transmission device and the control motor.

  • Patent number: 4926755
    Abstract: A rail car moving system including a double truck assembly which is operative in a guide track alongside the rail track for applying a pushing force to a rail car. The double truck assembly includes pusher arms which are movable from a recessed position to a raised position in order to apply a force onto the side frame of a rail car. The pusher arms are spring loaded for raising the arms and a hydraulic cylinder-piston is provided to lower the pusher arms. A cable-winch is used for applying the moving force.
