Patent number: 8579067Abstract: A gas spring with a center longitudinal axis including a cylinder includes a piston in the cylinder that divides the cylinder into a first cylinder chamber and a second cylinder chamber. A piston rod is arranged at the piston guided out of the cylinder at a second end opposite the first end. A connection element with a socket housing is arranged at each of the first end and the free end of the piston rod for receiving a ball head. At least one of the two socket housings comprises a ball socket with a longitudinal extension and a transverse dimension, the longitudinal extension is greater than the transverse dimension. A catch element having a spring tongue is arranged at the first end for insertion together with the catch element into a cover tube that locks into a recess associated with it in the cover tube.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2011Date of Patent: November 12, 2013Assignee: Stabilus GmbHInventors: Nadja Kaiser, Axel Knopp, Gerhard Stein, Jörg Wolf

Publication number: 20090019777Abstract: A device is provided for pivoting a lid, especially a motor vehicle lid, around a pivot axis. The pivoting device has a first actuating unit on one side of the lid and a second actuating unit on the opposite side of the lid. The two actuating units have substantially the same drive forces in a first section of the lid travel distance and different drive forces in a second section of the lid travel distance.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 3, 2008Publication date: January 22, 2009Applicant: Stabilus GmbHInventors: Thomas Flesch, Gerhard Stein, Christoph Ulrich, Jorg Wolf

Publication number: 20050098525Abstract: Apparatus for removing a bobbin deposited by a bobbin winding device includes a traveling unit suspended from an overhead track and having a drive comprised of an electric motor and a driving roller rolling along the track. A gripping device has at least two gripper arms for grabbing a bobbin in a jaw-like manner, whereby the gripper arms are urged by a mechanical spring assembly against a bobbin surface and can be released from the bobbin surface through pneumatic or electric energy in opposition to the spring assembly. A motor-driven hoisting device connects the gripping device to the traveling unit and moves the gripping device between up and down positions, wherein the gripping device is centered in the traveling unit, when assuming the up position. Flexible supply lines are provided to feed power to the traveling unit and the gripping device and extend between one end of the track and a connection of the traveling unit.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 7, 2004Publication date: May 12, 2005Applicant: NEUENHAUSER MASCHINENBAU GMBHInventors: Bernd Keen, Jorg Wolf

Patent number: 6769854Abstract: An arrangement for exchanging empty bobbins with full bobbins includes a creel having lateral delivery positions for holding filament-carrying bobbins for delivery of filaments to a textile machine. Disposed above the creel is a bobbin carrier which has several transport positions for bobbins and is moveably guided in a rail for travel in suspended disposition along a travel path. Transfer units are positioned on either side of the creel for transferring bobbins between the creel and the bobbin carrier and include an upright moveable along the creel and at least one support moveable along the upright and having receptacles for the bobbins. The receptacles are moveable horizontally relative to the support, wherein the delivery positions of the creel that neighbor the transfer unit are provided at a number and at a distance which corresponds to a number of and a vertical distance of the transport positions on the bobbin carrier.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2002Date of Patent: August 3, 2004Assignee: Neuenhauser Maschinenbau GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Jörg Wolf, Bernd Keen

Patent number: 6189205Abstract: A method for manufacturing pressure sensing elements which have a metal membrane and a resistive thin film arranged thereon, in which a blind opening is introduced into a base element, and the resistive thin film is applied on a side of the base element facing away from the blind opening. Provision is made for a plurality of pressure sensing elements to be manufactured simultaneously in one panel, and after application of the resistive thin film onto the panel, the panel is sectioned to yield the pressure sensing elements.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 1999Date of Patent: February 20, 2001Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Thomas Mölkner, Martin Mast, Jörg Wolf, Horst Münzel
