  • Publication number: 20070113392
    Abstract: There is provided a decking cone device adapted for automatically mutually angularly aligning and laterally aligning at least a first component part to a second component part. The device includes one or more features for laterally and angularly engaging onto or into the first component. Moreover, the device has external surfaces so shaped so as to cooperate with edges of a hole formed in the second component part. Furthermore, the device is operable so as to generate when the decking device engaged onto or into the first component part is offered to the hole in the second component part lateral and angular alignment forces so as to mutually laterally and angularly align said first component part to said second component part.

  • Patent number: 5797618
    Abstract: Spring strut for a front wheel suspension arrangement of the McPherson type for motor vehicles, which spring strut (1) presents a link bracket (40) for a stabilizer link intended to be pivotably arranged on the spring strut of a stabilizer forming part of the vehicle's front wheel suspension. The link presents a pivot portion (38) with an attachment means (39) for mounting the link on an attachment point on the link bracket. With respect to its attachment point, the link bracket (40) is oriented to adopt a fixed angular position in relation to the angular position for the wheel axis of the wheel axle, as determined by the carrier for the wheel axle. The angular position is the same for both spring struts in the vehicle's front suspension with respect to a turning angle about the longitudinal axis of the spring strut in relation to the wheel axis. Furthermore, the angular position deviates from 180.degree.
