  • Swivel Angle Measuring Device on a Hydrostatic Axial Piston Machine with Variable Stroke Volume
    Publication number: 20250362157
    Abstract: A swivel angle measuring device is configured to indirectly sense a swivel angle of a swashplate or cylinder drum of an axial piston machine. The swivel angle is adjustable using an adjustment piston guided in an adjustment cylinder. The swivel angle measuring device includes a movable encoder and a transducer affixed to a housing. The encoder is formed by two permanent magnets that are carried linearly and translationally by the adjustment piston along its direction of movement and that have a distance to one other.

  • Insulation displacement connection apparatus, and method for connecting two components using the same
    Patent number: 7946878
    Abstract: The invention relates to an insulation displacement connection and to a method for connecting two components, especially for high current applications, said connection comprising a first insulation displacement element, which is fixed to a first component, and a second insulation displacement element, which is fixed to a second component. The two insulation displacement elements can be inserted into each other in the direction of assembly, the first and/or second insulation displacement element being fixed to the first and/or second component in such a way that the insulation displacement element is moveably arranged in a plane transversal to the direction of assembly.
