Abstract: An actuator assembly for a vehicle brake is disclosed. The actuator assembly comprises, a carrier assembly, which comprises a first transmission plate and a second transmission plate, wherein the two transmission plates are connected to one another via a carrier component, are mounted in an actuator housing and carry a transmission unit. The first transmission plate has a fastening interface for an electric motor and is mounted in an elastically damped manner on the carrier component, and the second transmission plate is rigidly coupled to the carrier component.

Abstract: A driving device for a hatch in a motor vehicle includes a first fastening element which can be connected to a stationary structural component, a second fastening element which can be connected to a movable structural component, a spindle drive including a threaded spindle having an axis of rotation and a spindle nut arranged on the threaded spindle, and a rotary drive having a driveshaft for rotating spindle to move the first fastening element axially relative to the second fastening element. A stroke detection sensor for continuously detecting the position of the movable structural component includes a rotatable sensor element driven in rotation by the driveshaft and a stationary sensor element for continuously detecting the rotational position of the rotatable sensor element. A gear reduction unit is provided between the driveshaft and the rotatable sensor element so the revolutions of the sensor element are reduced by about 14:1.

Abstract: A force supporting device for assisting a force required to move a flap of an overhead baggage compartment from an open position to a closed position includes a blockable piston cylinder unit attached to the flap for assisting the force required to move the flap, and a triggering device for blocking and releasing the blockable piston cylinder unit as a function of loading of the flap.

Abstract: A piston/cylinder unit is disclosed. The piston/cylinder unit includes a pressure tube having one end; a piston rod axially movable in the pressure tube, the piston rod extending through the one end of the pressure tube so that a portion of the piston rod is disposed outside the pressure tube; a casing tube attached to the portion of the piston rod, the casing tube at least partially enveloping the pressure tube; and a bush attached to the pressure tube, wherein the bush is disposed between the casing tube and the pressure tube so that the casing tube is axially movable relative to the pressure tube via the bush.

Abstract: A continuously blockable adjustment device for fixing two structural elements moveable in relation to one another, in particular a body of the motor vehicle and a door or flap of the motor vehicle moveable in relation to the body of the motor vehicle, includes a piston/cylinder unit with a cylinder, a piston displaceable axially in the cylinder, and a piston rod led out of the cylinder. The piston/cylinder unit has a piston-rod-side attachment element for connection to a first of the structural elements and a cylinder-side attachment element for connection to the second of the structural elements. A bracket at least partially engaging over the piston/cylinder unit axially is provided. The bracket 12 is fastenable in a first bracket end region to one of the two structural elements and, in a second bracket end region facing away from the first bracket end region, is tied to the piston-rod-side attachment element or the cylinder-side attachment element of the piston/cylinder unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for transmitting light over a fat fiber (1) between optical components (B1; B2) of an optical measuring device, which are provided at a launching end (C) and at an extraction end (R; K; O) of the fat fiber (1). Said measuring device comprises a guiding means for the curved rigid guidance of a first partial section (PQ; FGHI; IJ; FL; LM; MN) of the fat fiber (1). If the radius of curvature of the curved guidance falls below a first limit, the light beam profile of the fat fiber (1) is homogenized by a mode mixing. In order to diminish the effect on the transmitted light caused by a permitted change in position of the fat fiber (1), a stiffening means, which is rigidly connected to the guiding means, is provided for rigidly guiding a second partial section (QR; JK; NO) of the fat fiber (1).
