  • Patent number: 8388057
    Abstract: An air-conditioned seat includes a seat area and a backrest, the seat area and/or the backrest being cushioned with foam. For climate-control, a ventilator, in particular a radial ventilator, is provided, which is in operative connection with an air distribution device in the foam of the seat area and/or the backrest, the air distribution device including an air distribution structure on the side (e.g., a B side) facing away from the seated person, as well as air-conducting channels toward the side (e.g., an A side) facing the seated person. The ventilator is to be disposed in the foam itself, on the B side. The air is transported to the A side via the air distribution structure in the form of air trenches introduced into the foam on the B side, and via the air-conducting channels.

  • Patent number: 4573386
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a saw chain for a power-driven chain saw. The saw chain includes a plurality of cutting links, a plurality of connecting links and a plurality of driving links. The links are interconnected by rivets to define the saw chain. The cutting links include a cutting tooth and a rearward foot defining a tilt edge. The cutting link tilts about the tilt edge when the cutting tooth penetrates the wood to be cut. In tilting about the tilt edge, the cutting edge of the cutting tooth is raised from a first elevation to a second elevation and the difference between these elevations is the tilt displacement. The tilt edge lies in a vertical plane which is perpendicular to a traverse plane containing the axes defined by the forward and rearward openings for the linkage rivets connecting the cutting link to the rest of the saw chain.

  • Patent number: 4558621
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a saw chain for a motor-driven chain saw which includes cutting links, side connecting links, driving links and safety links. Each safety link has an upper edge defining a wave-like contour that prevents chips from accumulating during the cutting action. The cutting links and safety links of the saw chain are arranged with respect to each other so that overlap is avoided between the tail end of the rearward projection of the safety link and the forward projection of the depth limiter of the cutting tooth. This affords the advantage that cutting chips do not become jammed therebetween.

  • Patent number: 4385532
    Abstract: A sharpening device, for the saw chain of a motor chain saw, with a holding device for a sharpening element which is arranged in the region of the reversing radius and is curved approximately concavely with respect to the center of this reversing radius. The sharpening element is seated upon an adjustment lever which is pivotable in a direction toward the saw chain. This lever cooperates with a screw device which determines the feed path of the sharpening element. An actuating handle is provided for the feeding of the sharpening element; this handle is arranged on that side of the housing of the chain saw located remote from the free reversing end of the guide bar of the saw chain. The actuating handle is preferably releasably secured in the grasping range of the front handle of the chain saw.
