Abstract: An actuating device has an actuating member (2) pivotable in a first operating state about an axis (1). The actuating member (2) is connected in a torsion-proof manner with a toothed member (3). The toothed member (3), in a second operating state, prevents pivoting movement of the actuating member (2). The toothed member is coupled, in a lockable manner, with a detent member (4). The detent member 4 is movably mounted with respect to the axis (1).

Abstract: A swivel device has a swivel shaft (2) rotatably mounted in a housing. A portion of the swivel shaft (2) projects from the housing (1). A swivel lever (3) is fixably mounted on the shaft (2) and is swivelable relative to the housing (1). The swivel lever (3) is arranged outside the housing (1). A first part (4) of a stop is arranged externally on the housing (1). A second part (5) of the stop is connected with the swivel lever (3). The first (4) and second (5) parts of the stop form a rotational movement stop for the swivel lever (3). The second part (5) of the stop is detachable from the swivel lever (3) and is reattachable to the swivel lever (3) in various positions on the swivel lever (3).

Abstract: An actuating device has a drive element with a cylinder (1) and a piston (2) having a piston rod (3). A toothed rack (4) is provided outside the cylinder (1) on the piston rod (3). The toothed rack (4) is implemented to cooperate with a gear element (5). An actuating element (6), pivotable in relation to the drive element, is situated in a rotationally-fixed manner with the gear element (5). An intermediate gear element (7) is situated between the cylinder (1) and the gear element (5). The intermediate gear element (7) cooperates, on one side, with the toothed rack (4) and, on the other side, with the gear element (5).

Abstract: A clamping device has a toggle lever mechanism (2) with a linearly movable actuator (1) and a pivot shaft (23) with a tensioning arm (21). A mechanism to unlock an over-center position is coupled with the toggle lever mechanism. The mechanism includes a control element (3) that is arranged on the actuator (1) and a rocker (4). The rocker (4) can be brought into adjusting contact with the control element (3). The control element (3) is in the form of a control extension in a direction facing away from the pivot shaft. The actuator (1) is arranged between the pivot shaft (23) and the rocker (4).

Abstract: A connection arrangement comprising a tube element formed from a fiber composite material, the tube element has a conically shaped tube attachment area on one of its ends; a flange attachment area is provided on a flange element, the flange attachment area is inversely conically shaped to the tube element; the tube element and the conically shaped tube attachment area are integrally formed and the tube attachment area is glued to the flange attachment area.

Abstract: A connecting element has a base (1) with a first interface (2), to connect to a robot, and a plurality of second interfaces (3), to connect to clamping frame elements. The base (1) with its interfaces (2, 3) is formed from a fibre-plastic composite material.

Abstract: A support frame has tube elements (1) that are connected to one another by node elements (2). Both the tube elements (1) and the node elements (2) are formed from fiber-reinforced plastic. The tube elements (1) are connected to the node elements (2) by material bonding.

Abstract: A clamping device has a clamping head piece with a linearly movable actuator in the clamping head piece. Two positional transducers are coupled with the actuating element. The two position transducers are adjustable with respect to one another. Two sensors cooperate with the two positional transducers. The two sensors are arranged at a fixed distance from one another. The two transducers are immovable with respect to the clamping head piece. A separate external access insertion opening is provided in the clamping head piece for each sensor.

Abstract: An electrically powered clamp has a housing, a motor attached to the housing, a ball screw driven by the motor via gears, and a linkage driven at one end by the ball screw such that the linkage rotates an output shaft attached to the other end of the linkage. The motor and gears drive the ball screw to a fully extended position to rotate the shaft to a clamped position or to a fully retracted position to rotate the shaft to an unclamped position. A built-in computer monitors and controls the clamp. The clamp can also be controlled and monitored by a remote pendant. Indicator lights on the housing and remote pendant convey clamp status information. The clamp is programmable and can memorize the clamped and unclamped positions. The clamp uses velocity and position feedback to determine appropriate drive mode. Torque monitors and timers determine if the clamp becomes stuck.
