Abstract: An adapter for the articulation of a bar (such as a lock bar of a bar closure) at a lever (such as an actuating lever of the bar closure), including a connection piece with an articulation eyelet at one end and a receiving cavity for the end of the bar at the other end. A clamping device, which extends into the cavity, secures the bar in the cavity. The articulation eyelet has a bore hole for forming a securing device, by which the adapter is fitted to a joint bolt which is carried by the drive lever. The joint bolt has an annular groove and is secured either by a retaining ring in the annular groove or, alternatively, by springing tongues proceeding from an edge of the bore hole, these springing tongues being supported in the annular groove of the joint bolt.

Abstract: A handle has at least one fastening plate or holding part which can be fastened in a through-hole in a thin wall such as a sheet-metal wall by means of snap devices. According to the invention, the fastening plate forms or carries a pivot bearing for the at least one end of a handle, or the like, which is bent, for example, from a round material such as thick wire, this end having a round cross section.

Abstract: A swivel lever can be locked in a trough in a swiveled in position and comprises a locking device which is accommodated in the swivel lever and which can be unlocked by way of an access opening in the swivel lever. The access opening can be made inaccessible by means of a cover. According to the invention, the cover can be blocked mechanically, particularly electromechanically, in its covering position.

Abstract: A bar guide for guiding locking bars on sheet metal cabinet doors, or the like, comprises a carrier which can be secured, e.g., spot welded, to the inside surface of the door leaf and a guide element which can be mounted on the carrier and which has a guide surface whose distance from the inside surface of the door leaf is adjustable. According to the invention, the carrier which is spot welded to the door leaf is a pin with a circumferential thread, and an adjusting screw or adjusting nut can be screwed, or is screwed, on this pin. The guide element is a housing which encloses the adjusting screw and which has a guide channel forming the guide surface for the locking bar.

Abstract: Disclosed is a fastening element (10) for a threaded bolt (14), particularly a stud bolt, comprising a plastic or metal block (10) that has a threaded bore (18) and can be screwed onto the bolt (14). Said fastening element (10) is characterized in that the threaded bore (18) is laterally open by means of an axial slot (20) such that the block (10) can also be laterally placed on the threaded bolt (14).

Abstract: A snap fastener which secures a first thin wall with a through-opening. A base part includes a plate which overlaps the longitudinal edges of the through-opening. A head part is provided as a housing with fastening projections such as fastening cams or leaf spring devices having flexible fastening surfaces. The housing is snapped into the through-opening so that it grips only the first thin wall. Unlocking devices are provided in the housing, via which the push elements can be pulled back into the housing from the front, and the housing can be disengaged from the other thin wall (e.g., a wall support). The dimensions between (1) the holding area of the fastening projections and the push members, and (2) the supporting plane of the base part are selected in such a way that, when the push elements are pulled back, the fastening projections lie on the front panel with clearance.

Abstract: A retractable hand lever actuator which can be locked in a trough for driving a latch for a switch cabinet or the like is described. The hand lever is articulated at a drive shaft supported in the trough. According to the invention, the hand lever actuator comprises a handle such as a T-handle or L-handle having two connection levers which are arranged relative to one another in a parallelogram configuration and which are articulated by one end at the drive shaft and by the other end in a similar manner at the handle in such a way that, on the one hand, they hold the handle in its direction parallel to the extension of the trough when the handle is folded out of the trough and, on the other hand, are able to transmit a rotational movement of the handle to the drive shaft in the folded out position.

Abstract: The description relates to a tolerance compensating device for rotating bolts and swiveling bolts, in particular a tolerance compensating device for non-engaging tongues, that is, for example, for pull-turn bolts or swiveling bolts of closures for mounting in thin walls such as sheet-metal cabinets with a frame and door. The closure has a housing which holds a pull-turn bolt so as to be axially displaceable and rotatable or a housing which supports a swiveling bolt, which bolt is provided near its free end with a bore hole in which a back-engaging device is held to as to be displaceable perpendicular to the back-engagement plane. According to the invention, the back-engaging device has a spring which forces the back-engaging device in direction of the back-engagement surface in the closed position of the closure.

Abstract: The description is directed to a snap fastening for fast mounting of fittings such as socket wrench latches, swivel lever latches, hinge parts in openings in a thin wall, comprising a head part which is to be arranged on one, outer side of the thin wall and which overlaps the outer rim of the opening, and a body part which proceeds from the head part and projects through the opening in the mounted position, and holding elements which project from the body part and are flexible in direction of its outer surface, the free end of these holding elements being provided with a first inclined surface (run-in bevel) such that the holding element is pushed back in a spring-loaded manner by the opening edge and with a second inclined surface (stop bevel) for supporting the body part without play on the rim or edge of the opening of the other, inner side of the thin wall, which second inclined surface is substantially perpendicular to the first inclined surface.

Abstract: The description is of a fastening device for securing a fitting such as a lock case, bar guide, or the like, to the back of a thin wall such as a sheet metal cabinet door which is provided, if necessary, with an opening for the fitting. According to the invention, a projection such as a nose, shoulder, head pin or bent portion projects from the back, possibly from the edge area of the opening, if any, which projection forms at its free end a recess or notch or opening or fold behind which a clip element projecting from the fitting engages in the mounted position so as to secure the fitting to the wall.
