  • Patent number: 7344191
    Abstract: In the case of a head restraint (1) for a vehicle seat, with a support (5), at least two rockers (15, 25) which are arranged movably on the support (5) and are pivotable about horizontal spindles (7, 17), an impact element (13) which is coupled to the rockers (15, 25) and, with the rockers (15, 25) and the support (5), forms at least one four-bar linkage (31), and a spring (21) as an energy accumulator which drives the four-bar linkage (31) in the event of a crash, so that the impact element (13) extends forward out of a starting position into a crash position, at least one leg (25) of the spring (21) forms one of the rockers.

  • Patent number: 7195313
    Abstract: In a headrest (201) for a vehicle seat, having a support (205), at least one upper and lower linkage (211, 215) hinged to the support (205), which are pivotable around horizontal axles (207, 217), an impact element (213) hinged to the linkages (211, 215), which forms at least one four-bar linkage (219) with the linkages (211, 215) and the support (205), and an energy storage, the energy storage driving the four-bar linkage (219) in the event of a crash, so that the impact element (213) is driven out forwardly from an initial position into a crash position that is locked rearward by a crash lock, a drive (271) is provided by way of which, in normal use, the headrest (201) can be brought from its initial position to at least one other comfort position.

  • Patent number: 7070235
    Abstract: In a headrest (1) for a vehicle seat, having a carrier (5), at least one upper and lower linkage (11, 15) linked to the carrier (5), which can be pivoted around horizontal axles (7, 17), a impact element (13) linked to the linkages (11, 15) which forms at least one four-bar linkage (19) with the linkages (11, 15) and the carrier (5), and an energy storage device (25), the energy storage device (25) driving the four-bar linkage (19) in the event of a crash, so that the impact element (13) comes out forward from an original position into a crash position that is locked against a backward movement by a crash lock, the upper linkage (11) and the lower linkage (15) are unparallel with respect to one another.

  • Publication number: 20030168897
    Abstract: A vehicle seat, in particular a motor vehicle seat, has a bearing device (11) between two components (7, 9) which are at least slightly moveable relative to each other. The bearing device (11) has at least one elastic fastening element (21) for connecting the two components (7, 9) transversely to the direction of movement.

  • Patent number: 4998877
    Abstract: A blower burner is provided for a boiler heated with fluid fuels with a blower casing, which incorporates on one side the blower with the attached drive motor and where the fire tube of the burner comes out on the other side. The motor and the fire tube form protruding parts on opposite sides of the blower housing. The rear side of the fire tube protrudes beyond the side of the casing disposed toward the drive motor and the rear side of the fire tube protrudes into a cover extension attachment of the blower casing. The burner is provided with a pressure controller, where the air pressure inside of the fire tube element is measured by the input sensor signal and where the blower speed is the variable controlled by the pressure controller. Furthermore, a sound absorbing means is provided for the blower burner.

  • Patent number: 4915621
    Abstract: A gas burner comprising a heating gas pipe, the wall of which is traversed by at least one group of longitudinally arranged outlet nozzles. These groups of nozzles (2 or 3) are connected with at least one conduit (5) for a heat accumulating agent which is parallel to the heating gas pipe (1).

  • Patent number: 4735551
    Abstract: A radial blower is provided with a spiral shape casing, which has an input port for the medium to be moved and an output port for the medium to be delivered. The input port is disposed on the side of the casing in the direction of a spiral axis and where the center of the input port is displaced relative to the center of the spiral. The output port connects the start of the spiral section to the end of the spiral section and forms a connection piece. The output port according to the invention increases in its cross-section continuously while going from the connection point of the spiral to the outer end. Preferably a protruding nose is placed at the junction point of the output port and of the smaller radius side of the spiral for enhancing the pushing power of the fan blades versus the medium and for reducing the flow resistance of the output port to the medium stream.
