Patent application number | Description | Published |
20090272776 | On board screen device - A motor vehicle screen device having a screen that can be driven by a driving mechanism between an inactive position within a cavity of a dashboard and an approximately vertical active position outside the cavity and from the active position into the inactive position. The screen is provided with spaced-apart guiding elements which are guided within guides that run nearly horizontal, perpendicular to the movement path of the screen. The monitor can be driven such that the guiding elements thereof are movable within the guides. At least one of the guiding elements is locked at the active position end of the guide by a locking mechanism. | 11-05-2009 |
20100206109 | Drive Device - A driving device for the rotary or pivoting drive of a constructional unit about an axis of rotation with an electric motor which has a driving pinion which is arranged on a drive shaft and by means of which, via a gearing arrangement, a driven shaft running perpendicularly to the drive shaft can be rotatably driven, the rotational movement of which driven shaft can be transmitted to the axis of rotation of the constructional unit. The gearing arrangement has a crown wheel gearing which can be driven rotatably by the driving pinion of the drive shaft, and a cycloid gearing which is connected downstream of the crown wheel gearing and by means of which the driven shaft can be driven rotatably. | 08-19-2010 |

20100289378 | INFORMATION PROCESSOR AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION THEREOF - An information converter has at least two material layers having polygonal base surfaces, which are connected to each other in a shear-rigid way, wherein at least in one material layer a change of length can be induced. The polygonal base surface has at least two different interior angles. | 11-18-2010 |
20100295418 | ELECTROMECHANICAL MOTOR, ESPECIALLY A PIEZOELECTRIC MICROSTEPPER DRIVE - A motor which includes two drive elements, especially piezoelectric bending actuators, having effective directions that are perpendicular to each other. These actuators act upon a drive ring to thereby rotate a shaft. Two tension-compression bars, which are parallel to an effective direction, are connected to the drive ring, have respective joints at their ends and are connected to the ends of a diagonal bar, relative to which the ring can be displaced in the other effective direction. The diagonal bar itself can be displaced relative to fixing elements to an effective direction via a diagonal suspension. The drive, having actuators that are non-radially hinged to the ring. | 11-25-2010 |
20110141702 | Display Device - A display unit for displaying information including a housing having an opening and a display unit with a display, moveable between a rest position in which the display unit is completely retracted into the housing and a display position in which the display unit is extended from the housing. A cover is moveably driven between a cover position that covers the housing opening and a release position releasing the housing opening. The display unit and the cover can be moveably driven by way of a coupling assembly by a rotary drive. The coupling assembly couples the motion of the display unit and the cover. The coupling assembly includes a first coupler that can rotate about a fixed first axis of rotation with a free end of hinged to the cover. The display unit is hinged to a free end of a second coupler by a second linkage at the cover and at distances from the first linkage and the second linkage by a third linkage. | 06-16-2011 |
20110260580 | Electromechanical Motor, especially a piezoelectric Microstepper Drive - A microstepper motor which comprises two electromechanical drive elements, especially piezoelectric bending actuators, having effective directions that are perpendicular to each other. These actuators act upon a drive ring to thereby rotate a shaft. The actuators are non-radially hinged to the drive ring via a torsion-proof, nested frame-type complex structure (drive module) including an interior drive ring, a frame and a U-shaped outer frame. The drive according to the invention is compact and, the drive module being is configured as a single injection-molded structure. | 10-27-2011 |
20110266920 | ELECTROMECHANICAL MOTOR, ESPECIALLY A PIEZOELECTRIC MICROSTEPPER DRIVE - A motor which includes two drive elements, especially piezoelectric bending actuators, having effective directions that are perpendicular to each other. These actuators act upon a drive ring to thereby rotate a shaft. Diagonally opposite securing elements are provided on the drive ring and are used to flexibly suspend the drive ring via respective articulated corner elements on respective fixing elements that are diagonally opposite the respective securing elements. The drive according to the invention is compact, having actuators that are non-radially hinged to the drive ring. | 11-03-2011 |
20120146461 | Electromechanical Motor Especially a Piezoelectric Microstepper Motor - A microstepper motor which comprises two electromechanical drive elements, especially piezoelectric bending actuators, having effective directions that are perpendicular to each other, These actuators act upon a drive ring to thereby rotate a shaft. The actuators are non-radially hinged to the drive ring via an approximately square shear-flexible and torsion-proof frame structure, the drive ring being arranged inside said frame. The drive according to the invention is compact, the frame and the drive ring being configured as a single injection-molded drive module. | 06-14-2012 |
20130314639 | DISPLAY UNIT - A display unit having a display module, which has a display having a rear display wall with bosses having support surfaces. A housing covers the of the display has support bosses through which fastening screws are guided and can be screwed into holes of the screw bosses to brace the display module against the housing. A spacer is arranged between each screw and support. The surface of the spacer extends parallel to the rear display wall. The spacer is supported on the support boss. The spacer surface and the supporting surface of the support boss rise helically in opposite directions and are concentric to a through-hole. The threaded shaft of the fastening screw protrudes through a spacer through-opening and is frictionally locked to the inner wall of the spacer through-opening to a certain torque. | 11-28-2013 |
20140207268 | Operating Arrangement - An operator control device includes an operator control element configured to provide haptic feedback to an operator. The operator control element is activatable by an input member of the operator and has: a first planar component; and a second planar component oriented in parallel with the first planar component, the first and second planar components being movable relative to one another. The first and second planar components are guidable between a position of rest and an activation position while maintaining their parallel orientation with respect to one another. In the activation position the distance between the first and second planar components is smaller than in the position of rest. The first and second planar components are spring loaded in the position of rest. | 07-24-2014 |
