Abstract: A handling system for handling objects in a vehicle comprises a storage apparatus that is positionable outside a vehicle cabin, an access device that is positionable in a vehicle cabin, and a transport device for transporting objects between the storage apparatus and the access device. The storage apparatus comprises a storage space and a connection station that is connectable to the transport device, wherein the storage apparatus comprises at least one drive device for moving carriers on which objects to be stored are held. The handling system comprises at least one guiding device that with the drive device guides the carriers on at least one circular path within the storage space. The storage space thus comprises a vertical flat shape that results in a significantly smaller reduction in the available cargo volume in a vehicle, while at the same time maximizing the design space available for passenger seats.

Abstract: A device for moving an object on a rail that has grid openings, the device having at least one first movement element, at least one first drive element, and at least one engagement element for engaging at least one grid opening. The engagement element is positioned on the first movement element. The first drive element for driving the first movement element is connected to the first movement element, and the first movement element is movably held in such a way that the engagement element is at least in some regions guided along an outside of the device. As a result of this an even force is directly introduced into the rail to prevent the object to be moved by sliding becoming skewed or jammed. Likewise, the device can be supplemented by a motor so moving the object can be carried out automatically, precisely, and quickly.

Abstract: The invention relates to a force supporting device (10) for providing a load-dependent supporting force, in particular for a lowerable overhead locker (12) in an aircraft. The device (10) comprises a bracket (20), whose one end is attached to a supporting structure so as to be pivotal about an axis (P) and whose other end is configured for connection to an object to which the supporting force should be applied. There is also a gas-filled spring (22), whose one end is pivotally articulated to the bracket (20) and whose other is pivotally articulated to one end of an oscillating lever (24), whose other end is pivotally attached to a bearing plate (18) and which can pivot relative to the bearing plate (18) between a first end position and a second end position. By means of an arresting device the oscillating lever (24) can be arrested at a plurality of positions in the region of its first end position to the second end position.

Abstract: An aligning device for a headlight in a vehicle body of a motor vehicle has an adjusting element which is arranged between the vehicle body and a carrying part of the headlight. The adjusting element comprises an elastic ring clamped in between holding parts by way of an adjusting screw, which elastic ring is supported in a ring sleeve of the carrying part, and the adjusting screw is held on the vehicle body in a threaded nut.

Abstract: A connection arrangement accommodates misalignments in three dimensions, and achieves a positive fixed connection between two components. A threaded standoff with a first bolt hole therein is partially screwed into a threaded hole in the first component and protrudes to match the spacing distance between the components. Inner and outer eccentric disks are received and supported in a hole in the second component. The inner disk has an offset center relative to the outer disk, and has a second bolt hole offset from the inner disk's center. Rotating the two disks accommodates radial misalignments to bring the two bolt holes into alignment. A bolt shaft extends through the bolt holes. While a bolt head or nut at one end of the shaft bears against the eccentric disks, a clamping cone at the opposite end of the shaft is tightened to axially clamp the standoff against the second component, and to radially outwardly spread and clamp the standoff against the internal threading of the first hole in the first component.

Abstract: A vibration damper including a damping element in a housing supports a component via a mounting bracket clamped between upper and lower plates after making horizontal adjustments. A hollow adjusting screw, a fixing screw and a counternut achieve a vertical adjustment, and a connection to the damping element. A hollow guide screw and an indicating pin axially slidably extending therethrough have visual alignment sights that indicate the vertical adjustment (via the adjusting screw) of the damping element relative to the housing, to facilitate achieving an optimal neutral loading of the damping element despite dimensional tolerances.
