Abstract: An adjusting mechanism for a height adjustable headrest of a child safety seat includes an actuator and a locking device. The child safety seat includes a seat shell and a headrest. The headrest is slidably mounted to the seat shell for up-and-down movement. The locking device is configured to releasably lock the headrest at a selected height. The actuator is configured to allow the locking device to be released by actuation of the actuator, thus allowing the height of the headrest to be adjusted. The actuator is positioned between the headrest and the seat shell and is configured to project above the headrest. The locking device includes a first component mounted to the seat shell and a second component mounted to the headrest. The second component is configured to releasably engage with the first component.

Abstract: A cooling circuit for a liquid-cooled internal combustion engine for motor vehicles, includes a main cooling circuit including a feed line leading to a radiator and a return line, and a bypass line, which bypasses the radiator and can be controlled as a function of temperature and secondary cooling circuit for a retarder of a braking device of the motor vehicle, which is connected, likewise by a feed line, a return line and a control valve, to the main cooling circuit. The two cooling circuits (2, 3) can be controlled by a single rotary slide valve (10). Both cooling circuits (2, 3) are interconnected in such a way that the flow rates thereof to the radiator (6) and/or to the retarder (4) can be varied in a predetermined or defined manner, in particular between 0% and 100%.

Abstract: An oil supply device for a crankcase of an internal combustion engine feeds oil from a reservoir to a main oil duct of the crankcase. A filter switching device allows a selection from a plurality of oil filter units in the flow path of the oil to be selectively connected into the oil flow path, to set a proportion of the oil filter units to active and a proportion of the oil filter units to passive. A switching unit switches between the active and passive states and opens up a pressurized oil flow path to the active oil filter unit(s) and also a drainage flow path between the passive oil filter unit(s) and a drainage duct. An evacuation device drains or evacuates oil from the drainage duct which has accumulated at the passive oil filter unit(s).

Abstract: An electric control device in the form of a final control element for fuel injection pumps for internal combustion engines is protected in the interior of its housing from having the parts it contains inundated by lubricant originating in the interior of the injection pump. This protection is effected in that a suction device driven by the camshaft is disposed in the interior and aspirates lubricant originating in the injection pump and returns it then. The suction device has a rotating part driven by the camshaft, and at its lowest point in the sump it has a sliding shoe which under spring pressure rests at the rear on the rotating part and is so embodied that lubricant adhering to the rotating part reaches a gap and from there is transported back into the injection pump via a drainage hose containing a check valve.

Abstract: A pneumatic diaphragm control member is proposed for a fuel injection device for internal combustion engines, especially for a boost-pressure dependent full-load stop, wherein the initial and end positions of a push rod provided with a control diaphragm and movable against a resetting spring can be varied, and wherein the effective pressure range is variable by means of separate adjusting means which do not affect one another. The push rod of the diaphragm control member contacts, in the unpressurized starting position, a stop screw mounted in the lid cover, and, in the pressurized end position, is in contact, by means of a counter stop attached to an extension of the push rod and adjustable in the direction of motion of the push rod, with a second end stop arranged in the pressure chamber. Thus, the bias of the resetting spring can be changed by changing the position of a bearing bushing for the push rod, which bushing serves as an abutment.

Abstract: A transport track and a sliding carriage for transporting heavy loads in substantially horizontal direction. The track comprising a bottom plate intended to be positioned loosely on a support capable to bear heavy loads. The upper surface of the plate and the lower surface of the sliding carriage being designed so as to provide minimum resistance to the movement of the sliding carriage over the surface. At least one rod is attached to the bottom plate which rod is adapted for cooperation with a climbing jack intended for moving the carriage and with a guide groove in the carriage for guiding the carriage during the movement. Structure is also arranged for transferring axial forces arising in the rod to the bottom plate.
