  • Patent number: 5535958
    Abstract: A technical device, such as an electromechanical deck for moving information carriers, includes a plastics function part molded into a deck plate by outsert-molding. The function part includes a bridge element, which traverses a hole in the deck plate, and retaining elements, which are situated at the deck plate surfaces and are interconnected by the bridge element, the plastics of said part being subject to shrinkage after injection-molding. The mobility of the function part as a rotatable or slidable part is obtained automatically despite shrinkage of the plastics part by positioning the retaining elements at each end of the bridge element so that they do not overlap, when viewed in the axial direction of the bridge, with a retaining element at the opposite end of the bridge.

  • Patent number: 5479305
    Abstract: An technical device, particularly an electromechanical deck for moving information carriers, has one plastics part formed on a deck plate, which part has been moulded onto the deck plate by outsert-moulding and has at least one bridge element which traverses a hole in the deck plate, and retaining elements, which are situated at the deck plate surfaces and are interconnected by a bridge element, the plastics of said part being subject to shrinkage after injection-moulding, the mobility of the plastics part relative to the deck plate as a rotatable or slidable part being obtained automatically through its shrinkage by the following construction:1. the bridge element is provided with retaining elements at only one of the deck plate surfaces;2. the diameter of the hole in the deck plate widens towards the surface which is free of retaining elements;3. the bridge element has a flange which fills the portion of widened diameter when the plastics is injected during injection-moulding.

  • Patent number: 4817919
    Abstract: A casting device in particular a converter for pouring and/or treating of molten metal is provided with a tilting mechanism. A tilting arm with two turn- or tilting axles at least is provided for. A guiding segment allied to the tilting arm show--according to the relation to the tilting axle--different arc radii. The segment is motor-driven and spanned by one chain at least.
