  • Patent number: 11111989
    Abstract: A device for level adjustment for a motor vehicle includes a ball screw. The screw nut of the ball screw is driven by an electric motor. The spindle of the ball screw is displaceable with respect to a housing. The ball screw is supported with respect to the housing using two axial self-aligning bearings with a common pivot point such that the housing can pivot with respect to the spindle, thereby avoiding loads on the balls of the ball screw.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10981428
    Abstract: An active wheel suspension element has a ball screw drive having a screw drive with a threaded spindle and a spindle nut which is mounted in a housing via an axial bearing. The axial bearing is formed as a rolling bearing, whose rolling element rolls directly on the spindle nut.

  • Patent number: 10520067
    Abstract: A belt drive for driving a rotatably mounted object, includes a main part, at least two belt wheels, a device for generating a pretensioning force, and a continuously circulating belt which loops around the belt wheels. The first belt wheel is connected to or can be connected to a drive, and the second belt wheel is connected to or can be connected to the object. The invention is characterized in that the device has at least two rollers which are attached to opposite sides of a lever that is pivotally mounted on the main part, and each roller contacts a section of the belt, wherein the lever is acted upon by at least one spring element and can be moved relative to the main part.

  • Patent number: 9987897
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for adjusting the height of a vehicle body, having two components, which can be moved longitudinally relative to each other, and a movement thread, which is arranged between these components. The movement thread includes a partial thread which is designed as a spindle paired with a first component and a partial thread which is designed as a spindle nut paired with the other component. The partial threads are designed to be axially movable relative to each other by a rotational drive.

  • Patent number: 9694643
    Abstract: A device (1) for adjusting the height of a vehicle body, including a movement thread (4) which is arranged between vehicle body and a wheel carrier and shifts two components (2, 3) which are displaceable in relation to each other between an upper and a lower adjustment position, wherein the movement thread (4) is provided with two threaded parts which are rotatable relative to each other, are formed from a spindle (7) and a spindle nut (3) and are in operative engagement with each other. The one threaded part is accommodated on one component in a manner fixed axially and rotationally driven by a rotary drive (6), and the other threaded part is accommodated on the other component non-rotatably and in an axially displaceable manner. In order to protect the movement thread (4), in particular the operative engagement, against high mechanical loads, a switchable locking device (18) spanning the operative engagement of the threaded parts (A, B) of the movement thread (4) is provided.
