  • Publication number: 20070209857
    Abstract: The invention relates to an actuator, in particular for components of a motor vehicle such as an electric seat adjuster or the like. The actuator comprises a drive motor (1) and a reduction gear (2). The reduction gear (2) comprises a housing (3), a wobble plate (4), a driven wheel (6) interacting by means of a toothing (5) with the wobble plate (4), and a guide device (7) for the wobble plate (4). By means of the guide device (7), the wobble plate (4) is substantially secured against rotation relative to the housing (3) and allowed to perform a wobbling movement on a circular path (8). The guide device (7) comprises a guide arm (52) that is formed in particular as a unitary part of the wobble plate (4) which guide arm by means of a radial guide (10) is slidable in a radial direction (9) relative to the circular path (8) and is essentially secured against rotation.

  • Patent number: 6386831
    Abstract: The invention relates to a fan wheel for a turbo charger. The fan wheel (1) is comprised of a base body with a central axis of rotation (5) wherein the base body is assembled of two cover discs (2, 3) positioned approximately congruently opposite one another, between whose end faces (12, 13) facing one another fan blades (6) are arranged. The fan blades (6) are formed as monolithic parts on at least one of the cover discs (2, 3) and have an axial contact surface (30) against which an oppositely positioned axial contact surface (31) of the other cover disc (2,3) rests. Fastening means are provided in the area of the contact surfaces (8, 9) for non-detachably connecting the cover discs (2, 3) to one another.

  • Patent number: 6261181
    Abstract: The invention relates to a drive device for a motor vehicle door lock or the like, which comprises a motor or in particular an electromotor drive and a gear unit (3) with a drive end and an output end. In order to optimize mechanical back-up actuation in the case of power failure or voltage drop or other interruption of the motor, in particular electromotor drive, according to the invention, between the drive end and the output end of the gear unit (3), is fitted a coupling (10) that is variable in coupling degree, which has a high degree of coupling in the case of high rotational speed, and a low degree of coupling in the case of low rotational speed.

  • Patent number: 5205400
    Abstract: A transportation device for the transportation of foodstuffs in particular of cut foods consists in essence of a rack in which two rollers are arranged across from one another and over which runs a conveyor belt designed as a continuous belt. The rollers can be rotated on the free ends of end sections readily removable from the rack. This makes it possible to readily exchange the conveyor belt and to modify the length of the transportation device in a simple manner.

  • Patent number: 5081976
    Abstract: A bucket tappet for an internal combustion engine with overhead camshaft comprises a hollow cylindrical tappet shank made of an aluminum material which is closed at one end by a baseplate made of a steel or hard metal material. A guide bush for accommodating a play-compensating element is arranged inside the tappet shank and is concentric to the longitudinal center axis. In order to obtain a permanent connection between the baseplate and the tappet shank, a steel material carrier element is embedded in the tappet shank and the baseplate is secured by soldering or welding to the carrier element.

  • Patent number: 4628608
    Abstract: A guide device for hand-held machine tools includes a foot plate in which a guide rail, provided with a parallel guide, can be clamped. The foot plate has guide openings in its edge portions. The guide rail is insertable into these openings. The clamping device is displaceable on the guide rail and can be clamped to the latter. The clamping device includes a clamping element with an overhanging clamping projection, which is engageable with the edge portion of the foot plate, and a clamping bolt for clamping the clamping element to the guide rail. The clamping bolt can be moved out from the narrow space between the foot plate and the machine housing and can be easily accessible.

  • Patent number: 4380693
    Abstract: A switching device has a switch and an actuating member displaceable in switching on and switching off directions and tiltable in engaging and disengaging directions coordinated with one another so that when the actuating member moves in switching on direction and tilts in engaging direction it switches on the switch and is arrested, and when the actuating member moves in switching off direction and disengaging direction it is released and switches off the switch. The actuating member is tiltable about an axis located in a plane which extends between a point of connection with the spring and gripping surfaces provided on the actuating member.
