  • Publication number: 20110037009
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a non-return valve for a liquid piping system, comprising a valve housing and a valve member, which is movable between a first position, in which a flow path is blocked, and a second position, in which the flow path is un-blocked. The non-return valve comprises a non-return valve attachment comprising a housing, a piston assembly and an energy storing means, the piston assembly being axially movable in relation to said housing between a first active position, and a second position. In said second position the fluid pressure of said liquid drives the piston assembly against the action of the energy storing means away from said first position, such that the valve member is movable into said second position of the valve member.

  • Publication number: 20070029817
    Abstract: The invention relates to a safety lock (1) for opening members (2), such as doors and windows, comprising a stop shoulder (3) arranged adjacent to the frame (4) of the door, a locking means (5) arranged adjacent to the door (2) and movable along the plane of the door, and movingly overlapping the stop shoulder (3). The locking means (5) is operable at least from the inside of the door (2), said locking means (5), having a locked position, a safety position and an open position. Said locking means (5) constitutes both lock and limitation for the opening movement of the door. The end part (6) of the locking means is, when the locking means (5) is in its safety position, movable a limited distance perpendicular to the plane of the door. The end part (6) of said locking means engages an abutment means (7) arranged adjacent to the frame (4) and thus limits the opening movement of the door.

  • Publication number: 20060272880
    Abstract: Shear strain-carrying joint (1) between two parts (2, 3) abutting one another in a motor vehicle. The joint includes two pins (4, 5) arranged in pairs, securely fixed in the one part (2) projecting upwards from an abutting surface (9) and situated at a selected interval (a) form one another. Openings (7, 8) are furthermore arranged in an abutting surface (6) on the second part (3) and situated at a corresponding interval from one another. The pins are dimensioned, shaped and positioned such that they each fit in one of the openings. The pins (4, 5) in a base section have two convexly curved mating surfaces (20, 21) that give each pin a selected cross-sectional dimension (d) between the mating surfaces. In the assembled state, the mating surfaces of the parts coincide with sections of the peripheral surface (29) of the openings.

  • Patent number: 6826597
    Abstract: A method and system for allowing clients to retrieve data from data sources that do not necessarily support the same protocols and formats as the clients. The clients issue service requests. A pre-processor responds to the requests by generating XML-structured request objects with unresolved links to the data sources that have information required by the clients. An XML processor resolves the links by issuing requests through one or more gateways. The gateways convert the responses received from the data sources into XML, which the XML processor uses to create XML composite response documents. A post-processor filters the XML response documents, and applies XSL stylesheets to transform the XML composite response documents into client-specific responses that conform to the format required by the clients. The client-specific responses are then sent to the clients.

  • Patent number: 6439588
    Abstract: Attachment bracket with attachment plate for fixing a V-shaped torque rod. The bracket (21) has a support plate (22) intended to be fixed on a frame member, and a bearing surface (23) which forms an angle of less than 90° with the support plate and against which an attachment plate (19) fixed to the torque rod is intended to be screwed securely. The bracket and the plate have slots (27, 28, 31) which are open to the sides and which receive screws (29, 30), that slot (27) of the bracket nearest the support plate being designed so that the screw can be pivoted between a mounting position parallel to the support plate and a position at right angles to the bearing surface.

  • Patent number: 6324988
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device at rails for exhaust extraction devices, which are adapted for removal of exhausts from vehicles. The rail (2) consists of several rail members (5) which are put together or assembled by means of coupling elements (6). The coupling elements (6) are wedge-shaped and the shape of spaces (9) in rail members (5) for the coupling elements (6) corresponds with the wedge-shape of said coupling elements (6). Mounting means (10) are provided for downward movement (arrow A) relative to the rail members (5) and thereby, for pulling the coupling elements (6) upwards (arrow D) relative to said rail members (5) such that said coupling elements (6) and rail members (5) are secured by wedge to each other.

  • Patent number: 6012978
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for removal of exhausts from vehicles, which device includes a rail (3) which is mounted in premises in which the vehicle is located when its exhausts shall be removed. The rail (3) may be composed or put together of a plurality of rail members (19) of which each rail member (19) has a length which is similar to or somewhat less than the length of a standard-type pallet (21) so that all the rail members (19) of one rail (3) or several rails (3) can be transported on said pallet (21) in unassembled condition. Each rail member (19) has such coupling spaces in opposite end portions that coupling portions of coupling members (20) can be inserted into coupling spaces of two adjacent rail members (19).
