Abstract: A sensor cleaning apparatus, for cleaning a sensor field of a sensor, in particular a LiDAR sensor, of a vehicle, includes at least one wiper drive housing, which houses at least a majority of at least one wiper drive unit. At least one wiper is arranged at least partially outside of the wiper drive housing and is configured to clean the sensor field by way of a wiping motion. At least one wiper receiving element is provided for transferring a drive movement from the wiper drive unit to the wiper. The sensor cleaning apparatus further includes a sealing unit configured for an at least water-tight seal of the wiper drive housing and includes at least one movable passage opening for the wiper receiving element and/or for the wiper.

Abstract: A disk brake with lower cost and improved maintainability is provided. The brake caliper includes at least one actuating device for actuating the disc brake using a moveably guided bridge. The bridge has at least one threaded hole into which an actuating spindle is displaceably located. A brake disk end of the actuating spindle penetrates a caliper closing plate facing the brake disk. The positioning spindle carries a rotatably-mounted pressure piece which presses a brake pad against the brake disc. The opening is sealed by a bellows retained on the brake caliper on one side and on the pressure piece on the other side. A securing ring non-rotatably located on the actuating spindle and rotatably connected to the thrust piece interacts with the bellows during brake application and/or release to maintain a desired air gap between the brake disk and brake pad.

Abstract: A disc brake for a commercial vehicle includes a caliper that straddles a brake disc and is retained on a stationary brake carrier in such a way as to be axially movable in relation to the brake disc on two guide bars connected to the brake carrier. The guide bars are each guided in a sliding bearing that is non-movably retained in a bore of the caliper. The disc brake is designed such that at least one of the sliding bearings is made up of at least two metal sleeves, which rest against the guide bar and are located at a distance from one another in the axial direction, and at least one spacing sleeve located there between.

Abstract: A paint tool includes a base with at least two sides and a handle secured thereto. An edging device is pivotally and removably mounted on the tool and includes a plate with a slot. At least one position is defined in the slot by an enlargement of the width of the slot. First and second wheels are rotatably mounted in tandem on the plate and the plate may be secured to either side of the base and will pivot upon securement to allow an edge to be painted on a surface.

Abstract: An extension handle for a tool such as a paint roller, paint pad or the like includes a first tubular member including an attachment device for attaching a paint roller or the like thereto. The extension handle further includes a second tubular member telescopically mounted within the first tubular member. The second tubular member includes a detent mechanism that engages one of several detent capturing devices on the first tubular member thereby defining a plurality of stops allowing adjustment of the relative position of the first and second tubular members to provide the extension feature of the handle. The handle further includes an alignment structure including a groove in one of the first and second tubular members and a tongue in the other of the first and second members that engage each other to align the first and second tubular members and the detent and detent capturing mechanism relative to each other.

Abstract: A handle for a paint brush or similar tool which facilitates the removal of the paint brush from a display device where the brushes are stacked on a cantilever-type display arm. The paint brush handle includes a generally vertical slot adapted to slidably engage a flat, generally vertically oriented cantilever arm to maintain the brushes in general relative alignment along the arm. The slot in each paint brush handle includes a pair of upwardly converging canted surfaces on the bottom end of the slot to facilitate removal of the brushes from the cantilever arm, for example by a customer desiring to purchase a brush. The paint brush handle may include a hollow interior, or the handle may be solid throughout in which case the canted surfaces terminate in a generally central crown. A generally circular aperture is provided at the upper end of the slot to define a "keyhole" slot so that the brushes also may be displayed on a hanger having a circular cross-section.
