  • Patent number: 9555511
    Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for the assembly and disassembly of hydraulic cylinders, composed of a pedestal-like machine frame having horizontally arranged guide means which bear, in displaceable manner, a receptacle for the cylinder barrel of the hydraulic cylinder, at least one receptacle for a support and a receptacle for a tool, and furthermore having a holder for fixing the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder. According to the invention, the holder for fixing the piston rod has a centering carriage which is driven by a centering spindle and which comprises a piston rod receptacle, wherein the holder is designed to be rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the machine frame and the rotational movement is realized by means of a torque-controlled electromotive drive.

  • Patent number: 7748166
    Abstract: A vehicle door glass blocker assembly including a blocking bracket securable to a vehicle door frame panel, and a blocking edge integrally formed with the blocking bracket, being substantially normal to a vertical edge of a vehicle window, and being capable of at least partially shattering the vehicle window when the window impacts the blocking edge during a vehicle crash event. A blocking protrusion may be coupled to the blocking bracket, be longitudinally disposable between the vehicle window and a vehicle door latch mechanism, and be capable of at least partially preventing transverse displacement of the vehicle window. A support bracket may be secured to the blocking bracket, and a glass run extrusion may be secured to the support bracket, be adapted to accept a vertical edge of the vehicle window, and be capable of reducing vibrations in the vehicle window.
