Abstract: An adjustable hinge mountings has a first hinge arm, a second hinge arm, a toothed quadrant centered on a hinge axis and connected to the first hinge arm, a detent part which has a toothed surface feature cooperating with the toothed quadrant and a control part associated with the detent part. The hinge arms can be pivoted between an active angular range in which the detent part is allowed to engage the toothed quadrant and a passive angular range in which the detent part is not located opposite the toothed quadrant so that the detent part is not allowed to engage the toothed quadrant. In the passive angular range, the detent part is retained by the control part in a passive position in which it is not in the range of movement of the toothed quadrant. In the active angular range, the detent part adopts an active position in which the detent part can be brought into engagement with the toothed quadrant.

Abstract: A motor vehicle seat having an underframe comprising at least one base and at least one rear rocker, which is connected to the base through a rear pivot axis, a seat carrier carried by the underframe, a seat back connected to the seat carrier, and a drive device. A crash sensor controls the drive device. In the event of a crash, the drive device pivots the seat carrier inclusive of the seat back about the rear pivot axis, and a seat front edge of the seat carrier is raised at least 10 mm relative to the base.

Abstract: An apparatus for removing an adhesive substance such as gum, paint, and the like from a surface is provided. The apparatus includes at least two reservoirs, one reservoir contains water so as to provide steam and another reservoir contains a cleaning agent. A common conduit is in fluid communication with the first and second reservoirs and comprising an outlet. A controller modulates the dispensing of steam and cleaning agent. Applying an effective mixture of steam and cleaning agent onto the surface area having this adhesive substance causes the removal thereof.

Abstract: A longitudinal guide for motor vehicle seats having a bottom rail and a seat rail that are displaceable with respect to each other in one longitudinal direction. The motor vehicle seats are adjustable in a longitudinal direction and are also removable from the longitudinal guide. Detents are formed in the bottom rail. The seat rail comprises a base part and a supporting part. The base part has at least one front and at least one rear transverse bolt, which cooperate with the detents. The base part is adjustable with respect to the supporting part between a lower position, in which the transverse bolts are not engaged with the detents, and an upper position, in which the transverse bolts engage detents. Only in the lower position is the seat rail displaceable with respect to the bottom rail.

Abstract: A communications cable reel package includes a box having a bottom, first, second, third and fourth side walls, and a top, wherein the first and second side walls are opposing side walls, and wherein each of the first and second side walls includes a slot with an open upper end. The package further comprises: an axle member mounted in the slots; a spool mounted on the axle member; and communications cable wound onto the spool.

Abstract: A communications cable payout bag includes: a main compartment configured to hold a communications cable package; a shoulder strap attached to the exterior of the bag; a pair of handle straps attached to the exterior of the bag, wherein each handle strap is shorter than the shoulder strap; a cable payout passageway between the main compartment and the exterior of the bag; and a closure mechanism configured to close the main compartment.

Abstract: A motor vehicle seat having an underframe comprising at least one base and at least one rear rocker, which is connected to the base through a rear pivot axis, a seat carrier carried by the underframe, a seat back connected to the seat carrier, and a drive device. A crash sensor controls the drive device. In the event of a crash, the drive device pivots the seat carrier inclusive of the seat back about the rear pivot axis, and a seat front edge of the seat carrier is raised at least 10 mm relative to the base.

Abstract: An adjustable hinge mountings has a first hinge arm, a second hinge arm, a toothed quadrant centered on a hinge axis and connected to the first hinge arm, a detent part which has a toothed surface feature cooperating with the toothed quadrant and a control part associated with the detent part. The hinge arms can be pivoted between an active angular range in which the detent part is allowed to engage the toothed quadrant and a passive angular range in which the detent part is not located opposite the toothed quadrant so that the detent part is not allowed to engage the toothed quadrant. In the passive angular range, the detent part is retained by the control part in a passive position in which it is not in the range of movement of the toothed quadrant. In the active angular range, the detent part adopts an active position in which the detent part can be brought into engagement with the toothed quadrant.

Abstract: The seat back of a motor vehicle seat with an integrated seat belt has a frame having two side parts and an upper base connecting the side parts and an upper belt point provided in proximity to the first upper corner. It further contains an L-shaped supporting body. The supporting body has a long leg connected to the frame in proximity to a first upper corner, of a length substantially equalling the length of the neighbouring side part and extending at an acute angle with respect to the neighbouring side part. A short leg is connected to the upper base, and a lower carrier piece connects a lower end of the long leg to the neighbouring side part so that the neighbouring side part, the long leg and the carrier piece form an acute-angled triangle.
