Abstract: The invention relates to a grip device (10) for a closure device (80) for a movable part (70), such as a door, lid or the like, of a vehicle, comprising a grip part (20), which is movably mounted relative to the movable part (70), wherein the closure device can be connected to the grip part (20) via a connecting element (14) and the grip part (20) is used to actuate the closure device (80). To this end, according to the invention the grip part (20) is composed of at least two parts, wherein a first part (21) is directly or indirectly mounted on the movable part (70) and a second part (22) is arranged movably on the first part (21), which forms an operating part (22) for operating the grip device (10).

Abstract: The invention concerns an outer door grip, in particular for vehicles. The outer door grip exhibits a handle (10), which can operate a lock disposed in the door upon actuation. The outer door grip exhibits a pivotal blocking member (20), which is normally placed in its ineffective release position (21) and therewith enables actuation of the handle (10). The blocking member (20) passes into an effective blocking position (22.1, 22.2) based on the inertia of the mass of the blocking member (20) in case of a crash, whereby the handle (10) becomes blocked. The blocking member (20) has available two blocking positions (22.1, 22.2), wherein the blocking member (20) moves into the first blocking position (22.1) upon a crash out of a first direction (30.1) and wherein the blocking member (20) moves into the second blocking position (22.2) upon a crash out of a second direction (30.2) located opposite to the first direction (30.1).

Abstract: The invention relates to a mirror head for an exterior rear view mirror for motor vehicles, comprising a mirror housing, which is fixed to the mirror support. To minimize vibrations caused by the force of the wind or similar, the mirror housing has a partial flexibility in relation to the mirror support. By subjecting the mirror housing to an appropriate force, said housing can be displaced in relation to the mirror support. A flexible connection between the mirror housing and the mirror support permits the vibrations at least to be minimized. The mirror head is designed for use as an exterior rear view mirror for motor vehicles.

Abstract: Two sensors (20, 30) which cooperate with one another are used in the interior of an activator (10) in order to trigger functions in a vehicle, said sensors (20, 30) being a proximity sensor (20) with a capacitive electrode (21) and a pressure sensor (30) with a pressure measuring element (31). The intention is that the pressure measuring element (31) will be acted on when pressure is applied manually (44) to an application point (43) on the outside of the actuator (10). It is proposed that in order to improve the method of functioning that the electrode (21) of the proximity sensor (20) be provided with a breakthrough (22) and that the pressure transmission between the application point (43) on the actuator (10) and the pressure measuring element (31) be lead through the breakthrough (22) in the electrode (21). The space between the application point (43) and the pressure measuring element (31) is spanned by a pressure transmitting means (50) which passes through the breakthrough (22).

Abstract: A handle for a moving part of a motor vehicle, particularly for a door, hatch, tailgate, or the like, having a retaining element which can at least partially be arranged on the outer paneling of the moving part, and having a support which can be arranged on the inside of the moving part and which is attached to the retaining element by means of an attachment means.

Abstract: A drive system for an entry/exit facility with at least one pivotably and/or slidably mounted door, ramp, tread or the like of a passenger transport vehicle, the system including at least one actuator or drive motor and a mechanical system driven by it and/or a gear unit for effecting the pivoting or sliding movement of the door, ramp, tread or the like, with an absolute value encoder for acquiring a momentary position during the pivoting or sliding movement, where an evaluation unit is configured to compare the momentary position with at least one reference position stored in a non-volatile memory of the evaluation unit in order to generate an output signal dependent thereon, and the absolute value encoder is flange-connected to a pin that fixes the pivoting movement of the door, ramp, tread or the like, and the gear unit includes a first reduction gear unit, a second reduction gear unit, and a controllable coupling is provided between the reduction gear units.

Abstract: The invention relates to a handle device (1) for a lock unit of a vehicle and to a method for releasing a lock cylin- der of a lock unit, said device comprising a handle part (10) which is movably mounted relative to a door (11) of the vehicle and which can be displaced between a rest position and an operating position, the handle part (10) being flush with the exterior of the door (11) in the rest position and projecting from the exterior of the door (11) in the operating position. The handle part (10) can be manually actuated to open the door (11) when in the operating position. The handle device further comprises an actuating unit (12) which can be used to transfer the handle part (10) at least from the rest position to the operating position when the actuating unit (12) is activated.

Abstract: The invention relates to a handle device for a lock unit (7) of a vehicle, comprising a handle part (10) which is movably mounted relative to a door (5) of the vehicle, a locking unit (40) for preventing unintentional opening of the door (5) caused by accelerations acting upon the handle part (10), especially accelerations such as they act upon the vehicle during a crash, the locking unit (40) being displaceable between a locking position (1) and a release position (2), and a movement of the handle part (10) being enabled in the release position (2) and a movement of the handle part (10) being disabled in the locking position (1). The invention is characterized in that an actuating unit (50) is actively connected to the locking unit (40) such that the locking unit (40) can be brought from the locking position (1) into the release position (2) when the actuating unit (50) is activated.

Abstract: The present invention is preferably directed to a dispenser of the type sold by 3M ESPE under the trade name Pentamix and as also described above. Such a dispenser preferably comprises at least a first and a second compartment for a first reservoir and a second reservoir, respectively, the first and the second reservoirs containing a first and a second component for the dental material, respectively. It further preferably comprises a first and a second plunger driven by a first drive for advancing the first and the second components from the first and the second reservoirs, respectively. Moreover, a dynamic mixer driven by a second drive for automatically mixing the first and second components to form the dental material from the first and second components is provided. Such a dispenser further preferably has a dispensing portion or mixing tip for dispensing the mixed dental material.

Abstract: A construction unit (35) comprising a support (30) and a locking cylinder (20) is present in the device and is secured from the inner door side (11) behind the outer door lining (15). Those parts of the locking cylinder which project on the outer door side are covered by a cap which is secured on the inner door side (11) by securing means. In order to simplify the handling and to save space, it is proposed to use the securing means for the cap at the same time in order to also secure the construction unit (35) on the inner door side (11).
