Patent number: 10611285Abstract: A seat adjuster having a fixed part (12), a drive element (26), an output element (22, 24), a clamping body coupling arrangement (16) by means of which a back and forth movement of the drive element (22, 24) out of a neutral position and back into the neutral position is converted into a continued movement of the output element (22, 24) in a uniform direction of rotation, and a releasable locking device for locking the output element (22) in a form-fitting manner on the fixed part (12), characterized in that the locking device is formed by a locking ring (74) which is axially displaceable between a locking position, in which it is non-rotatably coupled to the output element (22), and a release position, and cam surfaces (82, 84) are formed on the locking ring (74) and the drive element (26), which cam surfaces are complementary to one another and translate a rotation of the drive element (26) away from the neutral position into an axial movement of the locking ring (74) into the released position.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2016Date of Patent: April 7, 2020Assignee: Rollax GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Michael Kuhlmann, Jörg Franke

Patent number: 9488228Abstract: A bearing arrangement for a steering shaft (10) of a vehicle, having a bearing plate (12) which has an inversion (18) and, at the bottom of the inversion, a bearing seat (14) in which a bearing (16) for the steering shaft (10) is held in such a way that a steering shaft (10) runs obliquely with respect to a plate plane (P) which is defined by the outer edge of the inversion (18), and having an insert (28) which is made from plastic, surrounds the steering shaft (10), and is fitted into the inversion (18), in which the inversion (18) has at least one section (24) with walls which run at right angles with respect to the plate plane (P), and the insert (28) has at least one disk (30, 32) which has a uniform thickness and is fitted into the cross-section of the section (24).Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2014Date of Patent: November 8, 2016Assignee: Rollax GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Heike Böke, Andreas Sommer

Patent number: 8662744Abstract: A method of calibrating a position sensor in an automotive transmission having a transmission housing having mounted therein a casing (10) for the position sensor which includes a pressure member (14) movably supported in the casing (10), and an electrical displacement sensor (38) actuated by the pressure member (14) for measuring the position of the pressure member (14) relative to the casing (10), such that, after the casing (10) of the position sensor has been mounted in the transmission housing, the displacement sensor (38) is used for performing at least one calibration measurement for at least one gear position, and, for each gear position to be detected, a tolerance range for the corresponding measurement value of the displacement sensor is defined on the basis of the result of the calibration measurement.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2009Date of Patent: March 4, 2014Assignee: Rollax GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Wolfgang Rösch, Thomas Ullrich
