Abstract: A sliding arrangement, in particular a slide-out device for drawers, sliding doors, etc., includes a sliding piece and a pulling arrangement which can be coupled together by a coupling piece. The pulling arrangement can be placed in a resiliently pretensioned manner in a parking position and can be blocked in the parking position by a locking element. In order to ensure a reliable movement of a drawer or the like into the closure position, the locking element may be locked in the parking position of the pulling arrangement by a bar.

Abstract: A sliding arrangement, in particular an extension apparatus for drawers, sliding doors, hinged doors, etc., has an extending arrangement which comprises a sliding piece (21) that is displaceable by means of a spring element (22) between an inserted position and an extended position. In order to enable user-friendly opening of the drawer, provision is made according to the present invention that the sliding piece is displaceable over a first displacement distance in spring-impinged fashion, and in an adjacent second displacement distance is displaceable without spring impingement in a free-running portion of the extension apparatus.

Abstract: A stop damper including a damper member with a cylinder. A piston is moveably guided inside a receiving space of the cylinder. The cylinder has a sliding surface against which the piston rests with a sealing element. A braking force that acts upon the piston can be applied using the air pressure generated in the receiving space because the piston is displaced, the receiving space being connected to the environment via an air-conducting connection to reduce the air pressure. In order to improve the braking effect of the sliding element, the sealing element of the piston and the sliding surface of the cylinder can contact each other in at least some areas via a defined rubbing surface geometry, the peak-to-valley height of the sliding surface being <1 ?m and the peak-to-valley height of the facing surface of the sealing element being =4.5 ?m in at least some areas.

Abstract: A stop damper with a damper member including a receiving space inside which a piston is movably guided between an initial and an inserting position. The piston includes a bellows section and a sealing element, the sealing element resting on a sliding surface of the damper member and the bellows section being allocated to a rest section of the damper member at the initial position. To improve a damping characteristic of a stop damper, the rest section includes at least sectionwise a region that enlarges in the direction of the inserting movement of the piston.

Abstract: An end-stop damper including a damper body in the form of a cylinder, wherein a piston is guided so that it is displaceable in the cylinder receiving chamber. An air pressure is formed in the receiving chamber produces a braking force acting on the piston during its displacement. The receiving chamber includes at least one pressure reducing opening and the piston includes a bellows section which is actively connected to the cylinder according to pressure conditions in the receiving chamber. This invention substantially simplifies the structural design of the end-stop damper because the piston and the bellows section are connected to each other so that they are formed in one piece.

Abstract: A shock absorber with a shock absorber body having a cylinder. A piston is moveably guided in a receiving space of the cylinder. When the piston is moved, an air pressure generated in the receiving space exerts a braking force that acts on the piston. For air pressure reduction, the receiving space has at least one opening that produces an air-carrying connection between the receiving space and the environment. The shock absorber body has a simple design if the piston or the cylinder contains a receptacle into which an insert piece is inserted in a frictionally engaging fashion and if the opening is positioned between the insert piece and the wall of the receptacle that is touched by the insert piece.

Abstract: A lock which can be used for doors which are fitted on the right or left. The lock includes a nut which can be adjusted from the outside by an actuating element and which is disposed in a housing. The lock enables a bolt to be displaced between a closed position, when it is pushed out from the housing, and an open position, when it is pushed into the housing, by an adjusting element. According to this invention, the bolt is maintained in a closed position, counter to the pretension of a spring, in order to enable the type of lock, which can be optionally used on the left or on the right, to be produced without any additional costs. The nut can be adjusted from the pushed out bolt or the closed position, optionally, in a clockwise direction or in an counter-clockwise direction, in order to move the bolt into an open position.

Abstract: An end stop damper including a stop element, guided in an elongate damper body with an opened and a closed end as well as a receiving chamber, for receiving a sliding piece, joined to the stop element. The end of the sliding piece, which extends into the receiving chamber, forms a cavity with the inner contour of the receiving chamber. The cavity has at least one opening, for reducing the air pressure. The opening cooperates with a damping element which creates a flow resistance for the air, escaping through the opening.

Abstract: A fastening mechanism for a cover, door or the like, hinged on a body, frame or the like, wherein a locking element is fixedly attached to the body, frame or the like. The cover, door or the like supports an actuating element which controls a locking mechanism that can be disengaged from the locking element during opening and engaged with the locking element during closing. To assure an easy operation of such a fastening mechanism, while at the same time assuring locking, the actuating element can be moved from the closed position to the open position by a pulling force acting generally perpendicularly relative to the connecting plane defined by the cover, door or the like.

Abstract: A method for producing a milling disc with embedded insets of hard metal, ceramics or other similar hard materials. The milling disc has a centrical bore in the base body of the disc. The tips of the insets protrude over the circumference of the disc body. The invention also relates to a milling disc produced according to the method wherein a powdery sintered metal material is filled into the recess of a mold pertaining to a compression molding die, and the mold matches the outer contour of the disc base body. Pre-fabricated insets are inserted into the sintered metal material and are positioned in the mold of the compression molding die. A green compact is subsequently pressed in the compression molding die and then taken out of the compression molding die. The green compact is sintered with the pressed insets and is subjected to hardening and/or surface treatment, if required.

Abstract: A propping support for a chest, having a lid rest fastened on an inside surface of the lid of a chest, and a wall rest connected with the body of the chest. The lid rest and the wall rest are connected by a support device which secures the lid of the chest in a flipped-open position. To improve operational safety, the propping support has a spring holder with a spring element. An actuating element, which is prestressed by a spring against the spring element, can be displaced in a guide between two tilt positions of the chest lid when the lid of the chest is closed. The lid rest and the wall rest are coupled to the spring holder by swivel bearings.

Abstract: A fastening mechanism for a cover, door or the like, hinged on a body, frame or the like, wherein a locking element is fixedly attached to the body, frame or the like. The cover, door or the like supports an actuating element. The actuating element controls a locking mechanism, which can be disengaged from the locking element during opening and engaged with the locking element during closing. The operation of the fastening mechanism is simplified and an assured locking in the closed position is achieved because the locking element is embodied as a locking bolt on the body, frame and the like, in particular for furniture. The actuating element is adjustable relative to the cover, door or the like and controls a locking mechanism, on the inside, which includes a locking lever and a rotatably seated locking claw. The locking claw is held in a receiving position for the insertion of the locking bolt in the open position of the fastening mechanism.
