Abstract: The invention relates to a safety net device (9) with a housing (11), in which a winding shaft is rotationally mounted. The winding shaft (13) is pretensioned by means of a spring motor (14) in the direction of winding of a safety net (12) which is fixed to the winding shaft (13). The other edge of the safety net (12) is connected to a pull bar (21) which is suspended in recesses (24) in the car body. In order to minimize the effort required by the user to suspend said device, a holding device (25) absorbs at least part of the pull-back force when the safety net (12) is wound back into the housing (11) immediately after the safety net (12) has been pulled out of the housing (11) to enable the pull bar (21) to be suspended in the recesses (24). The holding device (25) can be released at will in order to roll up the safety net (25) back into the housing (11).

Abstract: A shade covering a window movable from a first position to a second position and a plurality of shade carriers supporting the shade in spaced, parallel relationship to each other and disposed substantially perpendicular to tracks, with the carriers secured to and movable in the tracks. Slides are affixed to the carriers, seated in the tracks and movable therein, and a retaining device is provided between at least one of the slides and carriers releasably firmly holding the slide in any desired position in the tracks.

Abstract: The device comprises a foldably extensible and collapsible shade member, and means for forming corresponding sets of laterally projecting trunnions at spaced intervals along opposing edges of the shade member. It also comprises a pair of elongated track defining members which are adapted to be mounted on opposing sides of the window frame so that tracks thereof are oppositely disposed to one another across the frame. The track defining members have opposing sets of carrier elements slidably engaged on the respective tracks thereof, which are adapted to support the trunnions of the shade member on spaced parallel axes extending crosswise the sides of the frame. In addition, there are means for extending and retracting the shade member when the trunnions thereof are supported on the sets of carrier elements, and means whereby the respective sets of carrier elements and trunnions can reciprocate in relation to one another along the aforesaid axes when the shade member is extended and retracted thereon.

Abstract: An air-fuel ratio controlling system for an internal combustion engine including a control circuit for controlling, in accordance with a detected air-fuel ratio, the operation of a drive motor of a control valve mounted in an additional air supply passage. The control circuit includes a timing pulse generator for generating timing pulses synchronized with a running speed of the engine and thus the control valve is intermittently rotated by a predetermined amount in response to the timing pulses. By increasing the frequency of the timing pulses during the periods of rapid acceleration and deceleration, a response to the change in the engine speed is further improved.
