Abstract: The invention concerns a damping device for damping the kinetic energy of movable cabinet components, which has a first damping element with a first cylinder that has a first piston, which slides lengthwise in it, and at least one more (second) damping element with a second cylinder that has a second piston, which slides lengthwise in it. Both damping elements are located one behind the other in a serial arrangement and form an integral system. The invention is characterized by the fact that each of the two damping elements are each designed as pneumatic (air) dampers, and a compression chamber and an expansion chamber respectively contain variable volumes; whereby, the damping effects of the damping elements are affected by the guide canals, which control the air distribution and air flow within and between the compression chambers and/or expansion chambers.

The side adjusting device has a side adjusting screw with at least one eccentric- or cam disks so that by turning the side adjusting screw, a side adjustment and, at the same time, a parallel shifting of the hinge arm relative to the mounting plate occurs, resulting in a correction of the door's depth adjustment for an amount.

Abstract: A device for measuring at least one parameter of a medium flowing in a line, in particular the intake air mass of an internal combustion engine in which fluid particles and solid particles in the line influence a characteristic curve behavior of a measuring element which is used to determine a parameter of the flowing medium. A protective screen according to the invention deflects fluids and solid particles away from the measuring element in such a way that they are conveyed against an inner wall of the line. In addition, the device stabilizes the flowing medium by generating longitudinal eddies in a flow direction.

Abstract: The invention concerns a drawer slide that has a swiveling double-armed lever around a pivot bearing and whose lever arms extend out from the pivot bearing and whose first lever arm, depending on the closed position, forms a positive/form-fitting connection between a linearly moving part and a cabinet-fixed part of the drawer slide, and whose second lever arm is connected to the draw-pull tension spring's first end and the second end of the draw-pull tension spring, distanced from it by under spring extension to a linearly moved or cabinet-fixed part of the drawer slide, is fastened. When the drawer is pushed in, the form-closure of the lever's first arm is turned out of a rest position over a dead center position in an automatic position, such that a further turn of the lever automatically shortens the pre-stressed spring on the second lever arm, so thus, pulling the drawer slide with the drawer into the cabinet opening.

Abstract: In devices for measuring the mass of aspirated air of an internal combustion engine, for instance, via a line, it is already known to provide a tubular body inside this line and to provide a temperature-dependent measuring element inside the tubular body. In order that dirt particles and liquid droplets entrained by the aspirated air will be kept away from the measuring element, in accordance with the invention, a protective screen is disposed inside the tubular body, upstream of the measuring element; the screen extends in inclined fashion in the flow direction, and dirt particles and liquid droplets are deposited on it and carried to a downstream end of the protective screen, so that via an outflow opening they can reach the inner conduit wall of the tubular body and be made to bypass the measuring element.

Abstract: A process for manufacturing a road-bound, horizontally fitted vehicle body with a roof unit having an outer skin and an inward facing ceiling with a ceiling frame, whereby the roof unit is a unit ready for installation, and a basic structure having longitudinal frames. The ceiling and the outer skin along with the basic structure have joining configurations that mate with each other at mutual places for joining. The process includes the steps of introducing the ceiling frame through an opening in the basic structure for a rear or front window, moving the ceiling frame upwardly into contact with matching configuration points for connection at least one of laterally on the longitudinal frames and on front and rear cross members, fixing the ceiling frame in place, and lowering the ceiling and the ceiling frame followed by the outer skin onto the corresponding matching configuration points for connection to the longitudinal frames laterally and onto the front and rear cross members and securing there permanently.

Abstract: This invention relates to the use of organophilic, swellable specially modified phyllosilicates in the production of nano-reinforced thermoplastic polymers, preferably polyamides, polyesters and polycarbonates. The inorganic phyllosilicate particles are bonded to or incorporated into the polymer in a covalent manner with nanodistribution. Special modification enables the phyllosilicates to be used as initiators in the case of polymerization or a chain elements in the case of condensation. The covalent bonding of the phyllosilicate particles to the polymer increases the stability of the reinforcing effect as opposed to an ionic bond. The special modification is performed for phyllosilicates which become hydrophobic as a result of cationic exchange. This property makes it possible for certain organic reaction partners to reach reactive groups present on the surface of the phyllosilicate and to react therewith on certain conditions.
