Abstract: The application relates to a brake arrangement for braking a flap of a motor vehicle, wherein a connecting element, which is rotatable in a braked manner about a brake axis, for releasing the braking force is provided. It is proposed that a housing accommodating the connecting element and having a first housing part and a second housing part is provided, and that the braking force is adjustable by means of an adjustment movement of the two housing parts with respect to each other.

Abstract: A mounting device with an anti-rotation feature is provided. The mounting device includes a base including a cavity adapted to receive a portion of a shock absorber assembly. The base provides for movement of the shock absorber assembly relative to a vehicle body in at least one degree of freedom. The base substantially prevents movement of the shock absorber assembly relative to the vehicle body in at least another degree of freedom. The mounting device includes a pin integrated with the base on a side distal from the cavity. The pin is substantially parallel to an axis of the shock absorber assembly. The pin is adapted to engagingly couple to one or more cushions and a vehicle frame.

Abstract: A shock absorbing tow bar for connection between the accumulating trolley and load carriage of a power and free conveyor system includes one component that is connectable to the accumulating trolley and another that is connectable to the intermediate trolley of the load carriage. Limited relative shifting is permitted between the components of the tow bar. Moreover, the components are threadably intercoupled so that such relative shifting requires a screwing or unscrewing action that serves to cushion movement between the accumulating trolley and load carriage.
