  • Patent number: 10787942
    Abstract: A valve component is provided with a unit for regulating or controlling a fluid pressure and is further provided with an expansion chamber. The unit has a valve housing with a first housing part and a second housing part, between which a switching element is arranged. The first housing part has an inlet and an outlet for a fluid. The switching element is arranged between the inlet and the outlet for regulating, releasing or shutting of a flow of the fluid. The switching element separates two chambers in the valve housing from each other. In open switching position of the switching element, the inlet and the outlet are connected by one of the chambers, and at least one first venting bore opens from the other one of the chambers into the expansion chamber.

  • Patent number: 8419199
    Abstract: The invention relates to a mirror head for an exterior rear view mirror for motor vehicles, comprising a mirror housing, which is fixed to the mirror support. To minimize vibrations caused by the force of the wind or similar, the mirror housing has a partial flexibility in relation to the mirror support. By subjecting the mirror housing to an appropriate force, said housing can be displaced in relation to the mirror support. A flexible connection between the mirror housing and the mirror support permits the vibrations at least to be minimized. The mirror head is designed for use as an exterior rear view mirror for motor vehicles.

  • Patent number: 8127641
    Abstract: A device to adjust the orientation of a mirror of a motorcar includes a body to accommodate a first and a second electric motor and a first and a second gear driven by first and second motor respectively. Gear rods are formed as circular arc sections and the body accommodates means to resiliently press the first and second gear rod against the first and second gears, respectively, eliminating relative movement between the gearing of the gear rods and the gears in operation conditions. Each of the gears include a safety clutch, allowing the gears to slip in overload conditions.

  • Publication number: 20100202074
    Abstract: The invention relates to a mirror head for an exterior rear view mirror for motor vehicles, comprising a mirror housing (3), which is fixed to the mirror support (4). To minimise vibrations caused by the force of the wind or similar, the mirror housing (3) has a partial flexibility in relation to the mirror support (4). By subjecting the mirror housing (3) to an appropriate force, said housing can be displaced in relation to the mirror support (4). A flexible connection between the mirror housing (3) and the mirror support (4) permits the vibrations at least to be minimised. The mirror head is designed for use as an exterior rear view mirror for motor vehicles.

  • Publication number: 20060050424
    Abstract: Exterior rearview mirror for vehicles, in particular for motor vehicles. The exterior rearview mirror has a mirror body that is rotatably attached to a mirror base and whose operating position is determined by contact between at least one stop and at least one opposing stop. In order to design the exterior rearview mirror to ensure that the generation of noise in the mirror during driving or as a result of shocks is no longer bothersome, at least one noise damping device is associated with at least the area of contact between stop and opposing stop. As a result, the sound waves caused by the constant striking together of the stop and opposing stop are largely absorbed by the noise damping device so that the sound does not reach the outside, or does so to only a small degree. The exterior rearview mirror is suitable for use in motor vehicles.
