Abstract: A non-articulated wiper blade (10), which is constructed of a wiper strip (12) having a wiper lip (14), two spring rails (30, 32) and a connecting device (22), wherein the spring rails (30, 32) engage in lateral longitudinal grooves of the wiper strip (12) that are open towards the outside and are clasped by claw feet (28, 68, 76, 108) of a sheet metal claw (24, 64, 72, 106) of the connecting device (22) from an outer narrow side.

Abstract: The invention starts from a wiper blade (20) of a windshield wiper with a wiper strip support (22) and wiper strip (24), which feature end caps (28) on their ends, whose inner cross-sectional profile is adapted to the cross-sectional profile of the wiper strip support (22). It is proposed that a guide rib (42, 48, 50) running transverse to the longitudinal direction (58) of the wiper blade (20) and having a guide surface (44, 54) be formed laterally on at least one of the end caps (28).

Abstract: The apparatus (2) for vibrationproof locking of a plug (3) in its plugged-in position inside a unit, in particular inside a clutch actuator (1), encompasses a housing (4) that has a housing top shell (16) and a housing bottom shell (6), by means of at least one locking element (30) that engages the plug (3). The locking element (30) has a blocking section (52), which is kept in a blocking position by the plug (3) when this plug is not completely plugged in—thus preventing the housing shells (6) from being joined—and which can be brought into a position that permits the housing shells (6) to be joined only when the plug (3) is completely plugged in.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device for connecting vibrating components having different electric potentials, in particular for connecting a stator housing (8) for an electric motor (1) with a housing (4) for control electronics (6) inside a clutch actuator of a motor vehicle, containing electrical contact means (30) for establishing an electrically conductive connection between the components, and means (26) for establishing its mechanical connection.

Abstract: A method of making a device for establishing an electric contact with conductors of an electric apparatus includes the following steps: forming a one-piece leadframe from sheet metal; securing the leadframe pattern to an electrically insulating carrier; severing the conductor into individual conductor strips; mounting an electric and/or electronic component on the carrier; and electrically contacting the components with selected conductor strips.

Abstract: A device is suggested which serves to lock and unlock closed doors of a motor vehicle. The device comprises a lock which is assigned to every door, can be actuated with a key and whose locking element is swivelably supported at the door and whose retainers, which cooperate with the latter, are arranged near the door opening so as to be fixed with respect to the body of the vehicle. The locking element is a structural component part which is spring-loaded relative to the unlocking position and engages behind the pin-like retainers with a hook-shaped projection in its locking position. The locking element has two catches which together enclose an angle with reference to the swivel axis of the locking element, which catches cooperate with counter-catches of a swivelable latch element which are spring-loaded relative to the catch position.

Abstract: An adjuster for a throttle device of an internal combustion engine in which a switch tappet is guided in an actuating tappet in such a way that external forces are not exerted upon it, which prevents any problems to the switch performance. The adjuster is embodied such that the switch performance is easily adjustable and is protected against external influences. The adjuster has an actuating tappet, formed of a guide body and a switch socket, in which a switch is disposed. The switch socket is displaceably supported in the guide body with a guide shoulder counter to the force of a restoring spring and it guides a switch tappet, which is aligned with the switch and which is threaded to a variable depth into the switch socket in order to adjust the switch point. Any external forces act upon an actuating body supported in the switch socket. The adjuster is used to adjust the position of a throttle device in the intake tube of an engine.

Abstract: In a potentiometer, wherein switching functions are triggered in association with the potentiometer position electrical switches (21-24) are mounted on the potentiometer plate (1) which supports the collector path (11) for the purpose of the very accurate association of the switching operations with respect to the potentiometer position and with spatially fixed switch on and switch off points with respect to the collector path (11). The switch elements which effect the switching on and off are mounted ona potentiometer setting member (17) electrically insulated which supports the customary potentiometer slider (19,20). Advantageously, each switch (21-24) is formed by a contact path (25-28) and a contact finger (29,30) rotating and sliding over the associated contact path (25,28), whereby the contact finger is mechanically connected with the potentiometer member (17). The beginning and the end of the contact paths (25-28) define the switching on and off point of each switch (21-24) (FIG. 1).

Abstract: An adjusting device for adjusting a stop lever coupled with a control device of an internal combustion engine. The adjusting device includes a housing having an electric motor which via a worm gear rotates a gear wheel. An internal thread is provided in an inner bore of the gear wheel and is engaged by the external thread of a spindle. The spindle is joined to an actuating sleeve and on one end has struts extending in the axial direction, which protrude into guide grooves of a short tubular portion of the bottom part of the housing and are displaceable therein in order to secure the spindle against rotation. A feeler is slidably disposed in the actuating sleeve and when the stop lever of the control device is in contact with the feeler, the feeler closes switch contacts which communicate via wiper fingers with contact paths, which are disposed on a protuberance which extends into the spindle.

Abstract: A washing arrangement for a window of a motor vehicle has a washing liquid supply element, a main conduit extending from the supply element, a plurality of transverse conduits each connected with a spraying nozzle, and a branching element connecting the main conduit with the transverse conduits. The branching element includes a branching member formed as a valve body of a check valve, and a flexible tubular member which closes ports on the outer surface of the valve body. The valve body is provided with a plurality of transverse openings which extend substantially parallel to each other and into each of which a respective one of the transverse conduits is open.
