SCHILLING, Rainer |
In an electric rotary hand tool, especially a hand circular saw, with a drive spindle (13) driven by an electric motor (11) via a gear system (12), there is a spindle stop system (24) to stop the spindle (13) when the rotary tool (14) is to be changed having a grooved disc (25) fixed in rotation on the drive spindle (13) or the drive shaft (16) of the motor (11) with at least one engagement groove (26, 27) and an engagement pin (28) insertable in the engagement groove (26, 27) against a return spring (36). In order to engage automatically the spindle stop (24) when the tool is placed on a surface (15) on the tool casing (19) when the rotary tool is changed, an actuating slide (40) is fitted in the tool casing (10) so as to be axially movable and connected to the engagement pin (28) in such a way that, when the actuating slide (40) is moved axially to a position behind the surface (15), the engagement pin (28) is pushed into the engagement groove (26 or 27) of the grooved disc (26). |

A positioning device for a remote control of a heavy duty vehicle or agricultural vehicle includes an elastic element. The elastic element has a fastening portion, configured to be secured to a body of the remote control, and a retaining portion, arranged to cooperate with an actuator of the remote control at a threshold position delimiting a first portion of a displacement trajectory of the actuator, and a second portion of the displacement trajectory, so as to oppose movement of the actuator according to its displacement trajectory along at least one displacement direction upon switching of said threshold position and allow switching at the threshold position in said displacement direction as a result of application of a threshold switching force exerted on the actuator. The threshold switching force is higher than a displacement force necessary for movement of the actuator on the first or second portion of the displacement trajectory. |

A brake controller having independently adjustable friction and detent torque to allow for easy adjustment of handle feel without changing or replacing components. The brake handle is coupled to a cam that rotates with the handle and has a series of divots in its outer circumference corresponding to established brake handle positions. A detent roller is biased by an adjustable spring into engagement with the outer circumference of the cam and thus into the divots when the handle is moved. A separately adjustable spring biases a lateral surface of the cam into engagement with a frictional surface. Independent adjustment of the two spring can adjust both detent and friction torque, thus allowing a user to easily adjust handle feel without having to change or replace handle components |

A first rotating body, which is rotated integrally with an operating knob, holds driving bodies and compression coil springs in recesses, and makes the driving bodies come into elastic contact with cam surfaces formed on the inner peripheral surface of a second rotating body. When current is not applied to an electromagnetic brake, the first and second rotating bodies are rotated integrally. When a user further rotates the operating knob against a sensation of resistance while the electromagnetic brake magnetically attracts a friction plate and a braking force is applied, the first rotating body is rotated relative to the second rotating body while the driving bodies slide on the cam surfaces. This relative rotation is allowed until stopper portions provided near the recesses come into contact with restricting wall portions provided near the cam surfaces. |

A liner-less seal application system is programmed to generate a real time seal, the serial number of which is data-matched with product label data on an approach product article. The image is printed in the required position (to suit the article being sealed), onto the adhesive surface of the seal tape. A vacuum drive belt has both low and high vacuum sections to assist in moving the sealing tape along a vacuum drive belt toward the print head. The real-time seal is printed while the belt drive indexes the tape, and the cutting action is done while the system collects data and the belt drive is stationary. There is only one stepper motor employed to drive the vacuum belt. The vacuum belt drive pulls the tape from the unwind assembly and feeds the tape through the print head and onto the vacuum drum applicator. A perforator device bursts perforation across the round element of the seal image. This is to apply a weak point on which the seal will break if tampered with. |

In an electric hand-operated machine tool, particularly a hand-operated circular saw, with a drive spindle which is driven by an electric motor via a gear unit, a spindle locking arrangement is provided for locking the drive spindle when changing the rotary tool, and includes a slot disk provided with at least one locking slot and arranged on the drive spindle or on the power take-off shaft of the motor so as to be fixed with respect to rotation relative thereto. The spindle locking arrangement also has a locking pin which is insertable in the locking slot against the force of a restoring spring. For the purpose of an automatic engagement of the spindle locking arrangement when resting the machine tool on a standing surface provided at the machine tool housing when changing the rotary tool, an actuating slide is supported in the machine tool housing so as to be axially displaceable and is coupled with the locking pin in such a way that the locking pin slides into the locking slot of the slot disk when the actuating slide is displaced axially until arriving behind the standing surface. |

A speed sensitive safety lock is provided for arresting and holding a control member when it is moved above a predetermined speed along a control path in one plane in close proximity to a stationary surface. The safety lock comprises a mounting portion for mounting the safety lock to either the stationary surface of the control member, and an arresting member pivotably supported on the mounting portion having a contact surface on one end for making a glancing contact with a part on the control member or the stationary surface as the control member is moved along the control path, and an arresting portion on another end which is movable so as to arrest the control member from further movement when the glancing contact is made at a speed in excess of a predetermined level. The preferred form of the lock has a single moving part and can be readily retrofitted to existing devices. |
