Abstract: The invention provides a single member insert positionable between a front axle and each front leaf spring as a spacer. The member allows attachment of one end of a shock absorber for bracing against the axle. The member also serves as a caster wedge for maintaining proper steering response.

Abstract: A metal gasket for preventing leakage of radio frequency signals when mounting shielded radio electronics includes gasket body having a first surface and an opposite second surface and a plurality of spring arms. Each spring arm includes a free proximal portion and a free distal portion and a connection connecting the spring arm to the body portion. Each spring arm is configured so that the distal portion contacts a component proximate the first surface of the body portion and the proximate portion of each spring arm contacts a second component proximate the second surface of the body. Preferably, the distance between adjacent contacts on a component is less than or approximately equal to a predetermined ratio of a shielded radio wavelength.

Abstract: The bearing module (10) is used to support an actuating element which can be displaced counter to the force of at least one return spring (32) with a force hysteresis due to friction. With previous bearing modules, complex friction mechanisms which ensure the desired hysteresis are provided in addition to the return springs. To reduce the number of parts necessary for a bearing module, the proposal is that the force should be transmitted from the return spring (32) via a friction element (24) which slides on a friction surface (28) assigned to the return spring (32) during the displacement, either tensioning the spring (32) or being returned by it. The direct production of hysteresis in the return mechanism reduces the number of components and hence the costs of production for the bearing module (10).
