Abstract: A pressurized fluid-powered actuator includes a housing and a striker movably coupled to the housing. Resilient sealing means are positioned between the striker and the housing. The sealing means are compressible so as to seal an end of the housing responsive to a force exerted on the sealing means by the striker in a first direction toward the housing. Releasable retaining means are operatively coupled to the striker and are structured to prevent motion of the striker in a second direction opposite the first direction prior to activation of the actuator, and responsive to a reaction force in the second direction exerted on the striker by the sealing means when the sealing means is compressed.

Abstract: A mandrel-locking unit for a rotary printing machine has a mandrel-mounting element that surrounds print roller mandrels in an inner bearing for mounting a mandrel-supporting surface and into which the mandrel-mounting element can be slid such that the mandrel-supporting surface is released by the sliding movement. The unit has a pressurizing medium cylinder that provides the force required for the sliding movement and a piston, which delimits a pressure chamber of the pressurizing medium cylinder at a boundary surface and which is in contact with the mandrel-mounting element at a connecting point and conveys to the mandrel mounting element the pressure required for the sliding movement. A feature of the unit is that the distance between the boundary surface and the connecting point is smaller than the maximum stroke of the piston in the pressurizing medium cylinder.

Abstract: An airbag arrangement for restraining an occupant of a motor vehicle. The vehicle roof is bounded by lateral roof edge regions extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle and also bounded by a front window cross member extending transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. A first section of the folded-up airbag can be arranged along a lateral roof edge region. A second section can be angled away from the first section transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle, wherein the second section of the airbag is arranged along a longitudinal side of the front window cross member. The airbag can be disconnected from the vehicle body in the region of the second section or be connected releasably thereto when the airbag is deployed. Therefore, when the airbag is deployed, the entire second section can be deployed freely.

Abstract: The disclosed occupant protection device for a vehicle can include at least one airbag that protects a vehicle occupant in the event of a collision of the vehicle. The airbag can have an outflow opening through which the gas can exit the side airbag and/or has an overflow opening located inside the airbag. After the occupant protection device has been tripped, the side airbag can be inflated and be positioned laterally next to the vehicle occupant in such a manner that the outflow opening and/or the overflow opening is closed, is throttled, or remains open according to the body size of the vehicle occupant.

Abstract: The invention relates to an airbag arrangement, comprising a gas bag, a gas generator for inflating the gas bag, a flexible chamber arranged within the gas bag, into which the gas from the gas generator flows, at least one outlet opening through which the gas is led into the gas bag in order to inflate the same and at least one ventilating opening, through which gas can escape into the environment. According to the invention, the ventilating opening (E) is arranged such that gas from the flexible chamber (2) can reach the ventilating opening (E) without passing through the outlet opening of the flexible chamber (2).

Abstract: An occupant protection device for protecting a vehicle occupant in the event of a vehicle accident, with a gas generator and an airbag which is connected to the gas generator and is inflated by the gas generator in the event of an accident. The gas generator includes a combustion chamber with propellant material which is ignited by a releasable igniting charge, and both the gas formed during combustion of the igniting charge and the gas formed during combustion of the propellant material being used for filling the airbag.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a mandrel-locking unit (1) for a rotary printing machine in which (1) a mandrel-mounting element (9)—preferably, a sleeve—surrounds print roller mandrels (13) in its inner bearing (11) for mounting the mandrel-supporting surface (12) and into which (1) the mandrel-mounting element (9) can be slid in such a manner that the mandrel-supporting surface (12) is released by the sliding movement and which (1) comprises a pressurizing medium cylinder (2) that provides the force required for the sliding movement and that (2) has a piston (4), which (4) delimits the pressure chamber (3) of the pressurizing medium cylinder (2) at a boundary surface and which (4) is in contact with the mandrel-mounting element (9) at a connecting point and conveys to the mandrel mounting element (9) the pressure required for the sliding movement by means of the connecting point.

Abstract: An occupant protection device having an inflatable airbag for protecting a vehicle occupant in the rear compartment of a vehicle. The airbag being designed is fastened in the roof region of the vehicle so that, when inflated, the airbag at least partially covers both the side wall and/or the side window of the vehicle and also the rear window and/or the rear wall of the vehicle.

Abstract: An airbag arrangement for a motor vehicle includes an airbag deployable in a direction to protect a vehicle occupant and an arrangement for limiting the unfolding impulse of the airbag upon an obstacle placed in a deployment path of the airbag to reduce the unfolding impulse transferred to the obstacle. The limitation arrangement, which can be, for example, a sheath, aperture in the airbag, can respond to the resistance of the occupant located in the deployment path, which is outside a normal seating position, or respond to a lack of resistance from the passenger. As the limitation arrangement limits the unfolding impulse of the airbag, it reduces the maximum unfolding impulse transferable to the occupant located outside the normal seating, in the deploying path.
