  • Patent number: 6895848
    Abstract: A device (1) for extracting one or more paper strip portions (3?) from a paper strip rotatably arranged around an axle, preferably rolled around a bobbin, while utilizing an edge surface serving as a tearing edge or a scissor device, belonging to a lid part (6). Adjacent the edge surface (5) and located within or below the lid part (6) is arranged a rotatable counter roller (8), adapted to press against the paper strip (3) with part of its peripheral surface. The counter roller is rotatable by a powered feed roller (7) so that the rotation will extract a paper strip portion (3?) past the edge surface. The counter roller (8) is made to press against the paper strip by a spring force. A frontal lid part (6) carries the counter roller (8) and has an edge surface or cutting edge (5).

  • Patent number: 4773698
    Abstract: An axle attachment for a sun visor assembly, or a dazzle shield assembly, intended for automotive vehicles, the sun visor of the assembly having a U-shaped recess provided in its upper edge for accommodating an axle that is capable of being detached manually from axle bearings provided in the ceiling of the vehicle. The axle is formed integrally with a U-shaped attachment fitting, the axle being located between the limbs of the attachment fitting. The sides of the attachment fitting facing the recess in the visor have a shape which is complementary with the shape of the recess edge surfaces, such that the side surfaces of the attachment fitting will embrace the recess edges substantially over the whole width thereof in a saddle-like manner. The attachment fitting is firmly connected to the sun visor. The resulting attachment can be fitted in one single rectilinear movement.

  • Patent number: 4765674
    Abstract: A pivot axle bearing for a sun visor, the one end of which bearing is connected to the ceiling of a vehicle and the other end of which is connected to the sun visor. At least one end of the pivot axles of the sun visor is formed by at least one universal joint coupling, the component parts of which are resiliently connected together and which, when the sun visor is subjected to a force directed in the plane of the visor and exceeding a given magnitude, are forced out of engagement with one another. This ensures that a passenger will not be seriously injured by contact with the visor.

  • Patent number: 4326365
    Abstract: A joint system for structural panels in which the panels have an edge construction providing a U-shaped profile having a side leg spanning between the opposite surfaces of the panel, a base coplanar with one of the surfaces and a clamp leg having an inwardly projecting portion. The panels are interconnected by cover strips of U-shaped cross section having a body adapted to overlie the clamp legs of the adjoining panels. At the opposite side edges of the body, arms extend inwardly and mount locking strips which extend toward the center of the body and are adapted to engage with the inwardly projecting portions of the profile to permit the panels to be connected in endwise alignment, at right angles, or in back-to-back relation. The patent specification discloses several different configurations of the U-shaped construction and several different configurations for the cover strips.
