  • Publication number: 20050284343
    Abstract: The invention relates to a table tennis table comprising a lower frame and two playing surface boards. Said lower frame comprises vertical struts which are used as carrier elements and are arranged opposite each other along the width of the table tennis table, in the central region of the same, and vertical guiding means on which guiding elements pertaining to fixing units applied to the playing surface boards can be moved upwards and downwards, in such a way that the playing surface boars can thus be transferred from a first position, in which the playing surface boards are vertically oriented and the guiding elements are arranged in a lower position, to a second position, in which the playing surface boards are horizontally oriented and the guiding elements are arranged in an upper position, the guiding means being embodied on the vertical struts used as carrier elements.

  • Patent number: 6799772
    Abstract: Vehicle steering head including a connecting element adapted to engage a handlebar. A support tube rotatably supports the connecting element. A fork member adapted to connect a wheel fork to a handlebar. The fork member is rotatable with respect to the support tube. A mechanism limits the rotational movement of the fork member in each of two directions. A lower bearing support is mounted to the support tube. The mechanism and the lower bearing support cooperate to limit the rotational movement of the fork member.

  • Patent number: 6705443
    Abstract: Clutch for a pedal vehicle having pedals and a frame and a method of transmitting power from the pedals, wherein the clutch is shiftable in two rotational directions. The clutch includes a drive shaft which can rotate in each of two directions upon corresponding rotation of the pedals in each of the two directions. A catch element is fixedly secured to the drive shaft. A driven shaft is provided. An engagement mechanism is arranged between the drive shaft and the driven shaft. A fixed member is provided. A holding element frictionally engages the fixed member. A spring element is biased to release the engagement mechanism from engagement with the driven shaft. The clutch allows the pedal vehicle to be moved in each of the two directions with or without corresponding movement of the pedals.
