Patent number: 10086488Abstract: The invention relates to a protective cover comprising a plurality of protective cover segments (1), which can be moved telescopically against one another and which have a covering leg (2) and a supporting leg (3), and comprising a connecting element or bellows (4). When the protective cover is telescopically extended, an elastic restoring element produces a torque (M) and transfers said torque to the supporting leg (3). The invention is characterized in that the elastic restoring element is an integral component of the connecting element (4) in that the connecting element (4) has flexural rigidity and is connected to the supporting leg (3) in a planar manner along a height portion (h) of the supporting leg (3). Owing to the invention, an additional elastic restoring element and the attachment thereof to the supporting leg are no longer necessary.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2014Date of Patent: October 2, 2018Assignee: ARNO ARNOLD GMBHInventors: Thomas Kreutzer, Thomas Christlieb, Alexander Grimm, Maximilian Roehnert, Tatjana Bock, Peter Weise, Josef Gawlik

Patent number: 9573233Abstract: A device for keyway broaching is provided with a housing, a drive shaft, a broaching carriage received and supported in the housing, a tool support connected to the broaching carriage, and a crank drive that couples the drive shaft and the broaching carriage with each other. The broaching carriage, when driven by the drive shaft, performs an oscillating movement comprising a cutting movement and a return stroke. A sleeve is arranged between the housing and the broaching carriage. A first seal is provided between the housing and the sleeve and/or between the sleeve and the broaching carriage. The tool support is connected to the broaching carriage with a rocking lever interposed between the tool support and the broaching carriage. The drive shaft has a control section that controls a relative movement between the rocking lever and the broaching carriage.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2014Date of Patent: February 21, 2017Assignee: WTO Werkzeug-Einrichtungen GmbHInventors: Tobias Fautz, Thomas Kreutzer, Karlheinz Jansen
