  • Patent number: 10246926
    Abstract: A driver for a movable window pane, in particular of a motor vehicle, having a receptacle recess, a receptacle of an edge section of the window pane, and having an elastically displaceable detent lug which is designed to engage in a latching cutout of the window pane in order to arrest the window pane on the driver, wherein the detent lug, in the reset position thereof, obstructs the receptacle recess and has an insertion taper assigned to the receptacle recess such that the detent lug is displaced into a position releasing the receptacle recess by insertion of the window pane into the receptacle recess. The detent lug has a catch groove on the insertion taper which extends parallel to the receptacle recess over the detent lug.

  • Patent number: 10107016
    Abstract: A locking device for a door or flap having a cylinder lock that has a cylinder bush and a cylinder core rotatably supported in the cylinder bush. A bearing bracket is fastenable to the door or flap and has a receptacle for the cylinder lock. A screw is also provided that establishes a mechanical connection of the cylinder bush to a trim element for the door or flap. The screw interacts with a threaded hole of a bow element in order to move the bow element. The cylinder bush has a radial recess, which forms a pressure tip at the end of the screw facing the cylinder bush, which pressure tip, while inserted in the radial recess, interacts with the pressure surface in order to axially and radially support the screw.

  • Patent number: 9447606
    Abstract: A locking system is provided whereby at least two locking devices can be actuated with one and the same key. The key has at least two control tracks, via which, in at least two scanning planes lying one behind the other respectively transverse to the insertion direction, the scanning of scanning points provided on the key is possible. Via the scanning points provided in at least one scanning plane, both types of platelet tumblers can be scanned via the mating scanning points thereof and separated, so that the arrangement of one type of the two platelet tumblers in at least one scanning plane can be chosen freely in order to form a multiplicity of locking devices having cylinders cores having an associated cylinder housing and matched to the free choice of the platelet tumblers, which can be actuated with one and the same key.

  • Patent number: 9043080
    Abstract: A method and device for activating and deactivating a valet parking function for a motor vehicle is provided. An activated valet parking function prevents access to one or more lockable areas in the motor vehicle. The method including the steps of checking whether a freely operable control element has been actuated. If the actuation of a control element has been detected, the valet parking function is activated to prevent exclusively the access to the lockable area in the motor vehicle, particularly to a trunk.

  • Patent number: 8904838
    Abstract: A lock device having a lock cylinder and a flat key having a control gate. The lock cylinder has a cylinder housing and a cylinder core rotationally supported in the cylinder housing and a plurality of plate-shaped tumblers that are supported in the cylinder core so as to be radially slidable with respect to the rotational axis of the cylinder core and which each have a key opening and are at least partially pushed by the spring load into a locking channel of the cylinder housing in order to lock the lock cylinder when the flat key is removed and which are slid into an unlocking position by the control cam guided in the control gate when the key is inserted. At least one stop is associated with each of the tumblers in order to limit the sliding path to conceal the unlocking position.
