  • Patent number: 11952041
    Abstract: A cockpit for a vehicle, wherein the cockpit comprises a first module with a support and a second module with a support. The support of the second module is arranged in a first direction behind the support of the first module and higher than the support of the first module, so that the support of the first module slides at least partially under the support of the second module in the first direction in a crash case with a force acting on the first module.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7291943
    Abstract: An electromechanical energy converter for a gaseous or vaporous medium comprising a stator (1) with two pot-shaped stator members (1a, 1b), each open at one end face and adjoining each other at these end faces, the stator members surrounding a working space (12) and forming a common magnetically permeated air gap (7) in which a coreless armature coil (25) is displaceably arranged. Arranged in the working space (12) is a freely oscillating piston (14) linked to the armature coil (25). Furthermore, at least one source (21a, 21b) for the medium, two reaction chambers (66a, 66b) each assigned to a head (15a, 15b) of the piston (14) and control means (17a, 19a, 22a, 23a; 17b, 19b, 22b, 23b) assigned to the reaction chambers (66a, 66b) for self-control of the piston oscillations are provided, by means of which the reaction chambers (66a, 66b) may be opened to the source (21a, 21b) during the piston oscillations for accepting medium under pressure, and to the working chamber (12) for releasing expanded medium (FIG.

  • Patent number: 4138925
    Abstract: A deburring device has a fixed or pivotable head on a rod or shaft which projects into the tube, pipe or other hollow to be deburred. The head has an oblique bore in which sits a tube; a cutting edge is provided along and around one end of that tube. Turning of the edge permits easy use of a new cutting edge portion. The position of the cutting tube is adjusted by a hollow nut through which runs also the removed burr. Guide rolls on the shaft position the tool, whereby rolls on the opposite side of the cutter are resiliently journalled.
