  • Patent number: 7434428
    Abstract: A portable anti-theft brake pedal locking device for a motor vehicle, comprising a horizontal barrier member, upwardly extending, u-shaped rod shackle engaging members, and a manner of locking the device against removal from beneath existing brake/clutch pedal(s). The manner of locking may be either by a lock integral to the anti-theft device, in the form of a pivoting catching lock member, or by a lock independent of the anti-theft device, such as by a padlock. This portable anti-theft device in its preferred embodiment may be double-locked through use of the lock integral to the anti-theft device, and also secondarily by use of the independent locking padlock. Through the placement of this device beneath the under edge of a brake pedal shaft, the under edge of a clutch pedal shaft when present, against the vehicle floorboard, and locking the device to the brake pedal shaft, a resulting disabling of the operation of such pedals is accomplished by preventing the pedals being depressed.

  • Publication number: 20080105229
    Abstract: A tappet for an internal combustion engine is formed from a high-carbon, bearing grade steel. The high-carbon, bearing grade steel has a relatively high surface fatigue strength that provides the tappet with the ability to absorb a relatively large contact stresses during operation, thereby minimizing the formation of cracks within the tappet. Additionally, the high-carbon steel tappet can be heat treated to provide a substantially uniform hardness, between about 58 Rockwell Hardness C (HRC) and 62 HRC, and a substantially consistent microstructure throughout the tappet, thereby minimizing wear of the tappet during use.
