Patent number: 10407951Abstract: The invention relates to a motor vehicle lock, comprising a lock housing, a lock case, a locking mechanism and an operating device, wherein at least one component of the operating device extends through an opening in the lock housing and said opening is designed with at least one reinforcing insert. The main area of the plate or the metal sheet from which the lock case is made is basically relatively large. In light of this, it has proved advantageous to form the reinforcing insert from the lock case. Waste is thus avoided.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2011Date of Patent: September 10, 2019Assignee: Kiekert AGInventors: Klaus Götzen, Alexander Grossmann, Dorothea Müller

Patent number: 9236665Abstract: The invention relates to a conductor track unit, in particular for a motor vehicle. The conductor track unit is provided with conductor tracks which are embedded in an electrically insulating material. The conductor tracks are, in particular completely, surrounded by the electrically insulating material and are therefore not accessible from the outside. Electrical connections are electrically connected to the conductor tracks. The electrical connections are accessible from the outside, and therefore can be electrically connected to electrical contacts of electrical or electronic components such as a switch, detector, electronic radio component, integrated circuit, electronic chip, electronic control device or motor, for example by soldering. The conductor tracks and electrical connections are different components which are therefore initially independent of one another and can be produced independently dependently of one another.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2012Date of Patent: January 12, 2016Assignee: Kiekert AktiengesellschaftInventor: Klaus Götzen
