  • Patent number: 8414321
    Abstract: A power element for a motor of an industrial truck having a housing, and at least one circuit board, which has power and control components for the motor, and power terminals for the power supply line, which is led through a wall of the housing and is bonded to the circuit board, wherein the power terminals have a first connection part led through the wall with a first contact section lying within the housing, a second contact part in contact with the circuit board and with a second contact section, which is aligned to the first contact section and is distanced from it, and a radially elastic sleeve, composed of conducting material, that surrounds the two contact sections in a clamping manner, wherein the outer contour of the contact sections and the sleeve is formed such that a mechanical contact of the contact sections to the sleeve is maintained.

  • Publication number: 20090061154
    Abstract: The invention relates to a metallic-colored thermoplastic molding material, which contains metal glitter in various admixtures. In addition, the invention relates to a method to manufacture this molding material and its use in molded bodies with openings. No visible formation of flow lines occurs with the use of this molding material, so that the quality of the goods manufactured is improved. For this purpose, it is planned that the percentage by weight of the metal glitter in the thermoplastic molding material lies between six and 15%, wherein the size of the glitter is not in a Gaussian distribution, but the molding material to a large extent contains only equally sized glitter particles in glitter mixtures.

  • Patent number: 7226322
    Abstract: A current supply point for a power and control unit of a battery-operated industrial truck wherein the power and control unit has a printed-circuit board inside a casing, the current supply point has a first component connectable to the printed-circuit board and a pin-shaped second component led out of the casing in an insulation which is adapted to be brought into electric contact with the first component, and wherein a portion of the second component that is located outside the casing has means for connection to a conductor, wherein the first component has a first portion connectable to the printed-circuit board, a second portion having a male thread, and a third portion including an annular first contact surface, the second component has an axial bore with a female thread within a first end portion that is adapted to be screwed onto the male thread of the first component so as to cause the first contact surface to abut against an annular second contact surface of the second component.

  • Patent number: 5383882
    Abstract: An endoscopic instrument for the application of ligature binders and a ligature are described. A base body and an actuation part of a handle part are longitudinally displaceable relative to each other against an elastic force within a fixed range. Connected to the actuation part is an actuation rod at whose distal end a first ratchet heat is secured. A shaft, firmly connected to the base body, carries a second ratchet head at its distal end. With the help of the ratchet heads, which are matched to the toothed end zone of a ligature binder, a ligature can be drawn together. A ligature whose end zone has already been inserted into the endoscopic instrument prior to the operation can be brought into a closed shape with the help of a constricted zone in its binding part and of a longitudinal slot in its headpiece.
