Abstract: An apparatus for pressing a pneumatic tire off a rim of a motor vehicle wheel comprises a pressing blade for removing the tire by pressing it off the rim. The pressing blade is mounted pivotably on a support structure of the machine in a substantially horizontal plane of pivotal movement. The apparatus includes a lift means for lifting the motor vehicle wheel in a standing position with its wheel axis into the horizontal plane of pivotal movement of the pressing blade.

Abstract: A device for temporary attaching holding or fastening structure to a surface. The device includes a fixture traversed by vacuum passages, whose one side bears the holding or fastening structure and whose other side serves sealing purposes and is provided with a closed roll of compressible material.

Abstract: The invention relates to an exterior mirror for vehicles, with a mirror-housing which, in normal operation, is retained in a fixed location on the vehicle and which, in the event of a collision, can fold away, forwards or backwards, until it assumes at least an approximately flat position against the vehicle. Folding occurs about a pair of pivot-axes. A mirror-shell, carrying a reflector, is retained in the interior of the mirror-housing. An aerodynamically efficient fairing is provided on the leading side of the mirror-housing. In order to be able to design the fairing with a shape which is particularly aerodynamically efficient, namely with a shape which is particularly long in the direction in which the vehicle travels and which resembles a wedge, while nevertheless being able, on the other hand, to permit the mirror to fold away effectively and with little overhang, at least one separate pivot-axis is provided for the fairing of the mirror-housing.

Abstract: The invention relates to a servo-controlled adjustable outside rear view mirror for vehicles, having a stationary mirror housing and a mirror shell which carries the reflector and is able to move therein. In the mirror housing there is provided an interchangeable drive unit for the vertical and horizontal adjustment of the reflector, said drive unit being affixed to the back of the mirror housing or of the mirror shell. The invention aims at providing a broad vibrationless bearing surface for the mirror shell. Furthermore, by means of a simple control switch the mirror shall be adjustable in the same manner about a geometrically defined horizontal and vertical axis. The invention also aims at providing a wedge-shaped convergent, aerodynamic mirror housing. For this purpose, the drive unit is coupled by means of a movable plate to the rear of the mirror shell which can turn on a vertical axis, but the swivel connection has torsional strength about the horizontal axis.

Abstract: A push button for locks of safety belts whose top side closes off flush with the housing receiving the same or is arranged recessed in the housing; the lateral guide surfaces of the push button and the corresponding guide surfaces in the lock housing are thereby provided with a large number of projecting and recessed areas.

Abstract: A combination of several seals at the juncture of a vehicle door engaging a resilient sealing strip on the lower portion of the vehicle door.

Abstract: A fastening arrangement of safety belt locks at motor vehicle seats, especially at rear seat benches which are adapted to be converted into an additional storage space by folding-over the seat cushion and the backrest; elastic means are provided which during non-use hold fast the safety belt locks together with the belt band directly on the front side of the backrest in the stretched-out position.
