Abstract: The invention relates to a pressure switching device of the type used in motor vehicles and includes a pressure sensor 21 arranged in a housing 3, which generates an electrical signal U according to the pressure p of a pressure medium or monitored fluid transmitted through a supply opening 15 of housing 3. The pressure switching devices includes an interpretation and switching unit 55 adapted to received the electrical sensor signal U and is further adapted to compare the sensor signal with at least one switching threshold value to trigger a switching function or a sequence of switching functions upon the electrical sensor signal exceeding and/or falling short of the switching threshold value.

Abstract: A self-adjusting electric tappet switch includes a housing, an electrical switch contact carried on the housing, a slider member movable relative to the housing and adapted to actuate the electrical switch, and an elongate tappet member extending from the housing and selectively engageable with the slider member. The slider member has a first engagement portion adapted to selectively connect with a second engagement portion provided on the elongate tappet member. The switch is self-adjusted by relative rotational movement between the slider member and the elongate tappet member to lock the pair together.

Abstract: A self-adjusting electric tappet switch includes a slider linearly guided in a housing for activation or closure of one of several electrical contacts and a tappet which is selectively rotatable relative to the slider for adjustment of the travel limit of the switch. The slider has a first engagement portion provided with engagements parts, and the tappet includes a corresponding second engagement portion having an oblong cross-section provided with spaced apart circumferential grooves. The switch is self-adjusted by relative rotational movement between the slider and the tappet to lock the pair together. In an installation and adjustment position of the tappet and slider system, the slider is held in a predetermined fixed switching position in the housing to permit relative longitudinal slidable movement between the tappet and the slider for adjustment of the tappet without causing any movement of affecting the position of the slider within the housing.

Abstract: Stepping motor comprising a rotor (4) and two, one above the other and with respect to each other angularly offset, stators (2) which are comprised of coils (30) and stator plates (20), wherein the stator plates (20) respectively have a planer U-shaped form with two essentially parallel extending arms (22, 25), the end of arms (22, 25) each exhibits on the inside for the formation of a polar pair an arch shaped recess (23, 26) such that the rotor (4) extending therebetween, in top view, is encompassed along its circumferential segment corresponding to the contour without, however, making contact.

Abstract: A self-adjusting plunger switch having a housing (3) carrying contacts (7, 19) with an actuation element (5, 27) for actuation of the contacts (7, 19). A resilient element (11) biases the actuating element outwardly of the housing toward an inoperative position. The actuating element comprises a housing-guided slider (5) and a plunger (27) adjustably connected with the slider. The plunger (27) has a first stop arrest (45) which can be brought from an adjustment between the plunger (27) and the slider (5) through rotational movement around the longitudinal axis of the plunger to engage with a second stop arrest (29a) of the slider as a result of which an arrest of the position between the plunger (27) and slider (5) is attainable.
