  • Patent number: 10436321
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a parking lock gear mechanism including a planetary gear train with a sun gear, a ring gear, and at least one planet gear that meshes with the sun gear and the ring gear. The at least one planet gear may be attached to a rotating planet carrier. The parking lock gear mechanism may also have a spring unit coupled to the ring gear, where the spring unit is configured such that it is tensioned by a rotation of the ring gear, and exerts a torque and/or force on the ring gear when it is tensioned. A ring gear securing unit may be configured to secure the ring gear against rotation in a first operating state, and to release the ring gear such that it can rotate in a second operating state.

  • Patent number: 9300192
    Abstract: An electromagnetic control device has a coil with a central axis and an interior space, and a control element that moves along the axis and is arranged at least partially within an interior space of the coil. The control element comprises an armature that axially moves to a desired position when the coil is energized. The coil is divided into at least two separate portions that are arranged axially behind one another and connected electrically in series with one another. An electric central tap is provided, between two adjacent coil portions, by which a sensor current, provided for determining an axial position of the armature, can be fed into a subset of the coil portions. When the armature is in a defined axial position, an axial end face of the armature is located within an axial area determined by an axial separation zone provided between two adjacent coil portions.

  • Patent number: 8821980
    Abstract: A patterned layer is intended to be used in an absorbent article, and has a pattern, for example in the form of a text or an image, which appears clearly legible or interpretable for an observer at a certain distance. The pattern can be formed by a number of dots which, when the layer is in a first state, have a first surface density which forms the legible or interpretable pattern and which, when the layer is in a second and then expanded state, have a second surface density which is lower than the first surface density in the first state, the pattern becoming in the second state essentially illegible or uninterpretable for the observer at the given distance on account of the lower surface density.

  • Patent number: 8753139
    Abstract: A device for the mechanical fastening and electrical contact with at least one control element (2), having first electrical contacts (9a, 9b), within a housing (3). Mating second electrical contacts (11a, 11b) are arranged on a connecting element (4) which can also be plugged into the housing (3). During assembly, the at least one control element (2) and the connecting element (4) are both plugged into the housing (3) so that such plugging engagement achieves electrical connection between the first electrical contacts (9a, 9b) and the second electrical contacts (11a, 11b) and, at the same time, an interlocked fastening of the at least one control element (2) with the housing (3).

  • Patent number: 7642398
    Abstract: An elasticized web has a gatherable substrate and a multi-strand elastic yarn affixed to the gatherable substrate at a plurality of fixation locations. So that the yarn can be affixed to the substrate without the use of an adhesive, the yarn is subjected to forces to create partial delamination of the yarn at the fixation locations and a portion of the gatherable substrate is caused to pass between the thus delaminated strands of the multi-strand elastic yarn. The elasticized web of the present invention is particularly suitable for use in disposable absorbent articles.

  • Publication number: 20060239733
    Abstract: A system and method for registering a sheet transported along a sheet path of a printing system, including receiving a sheet at a first location, transporting the sheet along the sheet path from the first location in a downstream direction at a first speed. The speed at which the sheet is transported is decreased from the first speed to a second speed. The transported sheet is received at a second location downstream from the first location and registered at the second location, including correcting at least one of lateral position of the sheet, skew of the sheet, and timing error in a downstream direction.

  • Patent number: 6926950
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for production of a three-dimensional dyed macropattern in a web of web-shaped flexible material. The method comprises a bonding device being made, in interaction with the dye-coated tops of the raised macroportions, to form bonding points and three-dimensional bonding areas at the same time as the bonding areas and/or the bonding points are dyed, thereby forming a three-dimensional dyed macropattern.
