Patent number: 8231317Abstract: A fastening clamp for connecting a carrier part (13) and an add-on part (14) has a plug-through leg (1), with a plug-through sleeve (5), and a threaded leg (2), which is connected to a thread unit (10). The plug-through sleeve (5) extends away from the threaded leg (2) and has an effective overall height which is greater than the thickness of an add-on part (14). Engagement elements (11) are present on that side of the thread leg (2) which is directed towards the plug-through leg (1). In a pre-assembly arrangement, the legs (1, 2) are spaced apart by a distance which is large enough to allow a carrier part (13) to be positioned between the legs (1, 2) such that it is essentially free of engagement with the engagement elements (11), in which case, once a screw has been screwed into an end position, the engagement elements (11) thus engage with the carrier part (13) such that the fastening clamp is connected in a non-displaceable manner to the carrier part (13).Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2006Date of Patent: July 31, 2012Assignee: A.

Patent number: 8205912Abstract: A fluid line coupling includes a receiving part and a locking part connectable to the receiving part. The locking part includes a plurality of elastically resilient spring tongues engageable behind an annular collar formed on a plug-in part that is insertable into the receiving part. A securing part includes a plurality of elongate securing arms. Guide elements are formed on the securing part and the receiving part that are engagable with one another to displace the securing part in relation to the receiving part. In a securing position of the securing part, each securing arm bears against a respective associated spring tongue and prevents the spring tongue from deflecting outwardly. In this manner, the plug-in part is secured by a very high pull-out force against being pulled out of the receiving part.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2008Date of Patent: June 26, 2012Assignee: A.

Patent number: 8146956Abstract: A coupling for a connector for fluid pipes includes a female base in which a male end-piece is inserted to produce a sealed connection. An elastically deformable C-shaped metal wire spring immobilizes the end-piece in the base. A locking sleeve is movable axially around the spring and the base between a first axial position in which the spring can deform radially towards the outside of the base, and a second axial position prohibiting the radial deformation of the spring. The sleeve has at least one radial interior recess into which the spring retracts when deformed by the end-piece in the first position. Each recess is offset axially with respect to the spring in the second position, preventing the radial deformation of the spring and thereby safeguarding the sealed connection.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2009Date of Patent: April 3, 2012Assignee: A.

Patent number: 8136772Abstract: The device for receiving oblong objects comprises a bottom wall (2) and a receiving element (1) having two bordering walls (3, 4) facing each other. A cover element (16) is mounted on the receiving element (1) so as to be pivoted by means of a border hinge (15) and can be linked with the receiving element (1) by means of a closure system (23, 24, 25, 26) facing the border hinge (15). The cover element (16) has at least three cover sections (17, 19, 21). Between adjacent cover sections (17, 19, 21), a center hinge (18, 20) is configured. The closure system (23, 24, 25, 26) allows for a number of closure positions that corresponds to the number of center hinges (18, 20) and in which the cover sections (17, 19, 21) are spaced apart from the bottom wall at different distances. The same design of the inventive device can therefore be used in different environments of assembly.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2005Date of Patent: March 20, 2012Assignee: A.

Publication number: 20120037679Abstract: The invention relates to a device for feeding a quasi-endless material web (4) to a manipulation device (19) receiving the material web (4), wherein a feed tension unit (8) is provided, through which the material web (4) is fed in an S-shape. The feed tension unit (8) comprises a pivotal feed dancer roller (12), the angle positions thereof being captured by a feed angle sensor (34) and fed to a control unit (36), by means of which the material web (4) is fed or retracted by a dispenser roller motor (3) in the direction of the manipulation device (19), depending on the deviation of the angle position from a reference angle position. Substantially uniform tension in the material web (4) is thereby ensured, even under extreme operating conditions.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 9, 2010Publication date: February 16, 2012Applicant: A.

Patent number: 8113549Abstract: A coupling part (1) for a fluid line coupling is provided with a locking element for locking in place a plug-in part that is to be introduced into the coupling (1), and with a checking element (8) to verify proper locking of the plug-in part. The checking element (8) is equipped with axially flexible spring arms (11, 12), which comprise an engagement structure (14, 15) devised to engage with a latching structure (15), and which, in a first checking position, block the checking element (8) from shifting into a second checking position if the plug-in part is not properly locked. After the second checking position has been assumed, as a result of the actuation by the plug-in part of an actuating structure formed on each spring arm (11, 12), the checking element (8) is out of engagement with the plug-in part, and it is therefore possible to remove the plug-in part from the coupling part in the second checking position of the checking part (8), as well, by actuating the locking element (5).Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2007Date of Patent: February 14, 2012Assignee: A. Raymond et CieInventors: Sven Bokühn, Axel Feger, Bernd Grünmüller, Daniel Utz, Patrick Borderie, Jacques Boyer
