Abstract:
A brake-equipped retracting device (3) returns a liquid crystal display device (1) from a deployed position (1B) to a stored position (1A) using an elastic returning force of a spiral spring (18) that is wound up when the liquid crystal display device (1) is opened by the rotational force of a motor. A braking force for preventing the liquid crystal display device (1) from returning with too much force is applied to an input shaft (17a) of a reducer by having a rope (21) whose tensile force increases and decreases in relation to the opening and closing of the liquid crystal display device (1) be wound around a slip clutch (15) that is connected to the input shaft (17a). In emergency situations such as when the rope (21) breaks, a centrifugal grip (53) of a rotation-restraining mechanism (50) strikes an engagement notch surface (56b) on a fixed side, and the rotation of the input shaft (17a) is forcibly halted. A retracting device for a liquid crystal display device comprising a braking device that has a simple structure, is reliable, is highly safe, and is low in cost can be realized.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a mechanical sprung anti-backoff device, capable of fixedly immobilizing or releasing a manual control handwheel (4) and a motor acting on one and the same rotation shaft, comprising a cylindrical spring (7, 16), a cylinder (9, 17) mounted so as to rotate on the rotation shaft, the spring being able to rotate with the cylinder, turns of the spring being in contact with a surface of the cylinder and its ends being capable of coming into contact with the handwheel. The ends of the spring (7, 16) are curved inward or outward, the handwheel (4) may act on the curve of one or other of the ends of the spring (7, 16), and the rotation of the spring (7, 16) is limited by a stop acting against one or other of the ends of the spring. Application can be to manual control and motorized control valves, for example on fluid pipes.

Abstract:
PURPOSE: To prevent a driven member from backlash or lost motion, by engaging coil springs of all sizes with the notched surface situated in a reverse sense of the rotating direction of a handle shaft. CONSTITUTION: An annular projection 30a to be installed in a plate 30 or a driven member and a notched part 28 of a handle shaft 27 or a driving member both are designed to make these driven and driving members rotatable as one body via a clearance around a shaft. In a state of freedom, the outer diameter of a large diametral coil spring 35 is made to be larger than a diameter of the inner circumferential surface of an outer wall 22 of a case 21, while the inner diameter of a small diametral coil spring 34 is made to be smaller than the outer circumferential surface of an inner wall 23. In addition, the large diametral coil spring 35 makes its one side end part 35a engage with a slit groove 32 of a projection 30b while the other side end part 35b engages with a notched surface 29a of a notched part 29. On the other hand, the small diametral coil spring 34 makes its one side end part 34a engage with a slit groove 31 while the other end part 34b engages with a notched surface 29b of the notched part 29.

Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Getriebeeinheit und eine Motor-Getriebeeinheit für Seil-Fensterheber von Kraftfahrzeugen, die einen Antrieb (14, 50; 59, 60) und ein mit dem Antrieb zusammenwirkendes Getriebe (15, 10) umfasst, welches mit einer drehbar gelagerten Seiltrommel (17) zum Auf- und Abwickeln eines Seils (53) des Seil-Fensterhebers (100) gekoppelt ist. Die Getriebe- oder Motor-Getriebeeinheit zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass ein Dichtungsmittel (30) drehfest entweder auf einem oberen Umfangsrand des Schneckenrads (10) oder auf einem oberen Rand (29) des Gehäuseabschnitts (6) sitzt und einen dazwischen ausgebildeten Ringspalt überbrückt, um den Raum des Schneckenrads (10) gegen den Raum des Gehäuseabschnitts (6) abzudichten. Dadurch kann eine zuverlässige Abdichtung bei zugleich geringem Bauvolumen der Getriebeeinheit erzielt werden. Gleichzeitig können auch die Herstellungskosten reduziert werden. Das Dichtungsmittel kann durch ein Zwei-Komponenten-Spritzgießverfahren ausgebildet sein, bei dem ein Gehäuse der Getriebeeinheit in einem ersten Arbeitsschritt aus einem vergleichsweise harten Kunststoff spritzgegossen wird und dann das Dichtungsmittel aus einem vergleichsweise weichen Kunststoff in einem zweiten Arbeitsschritt an das Gehäuse angespritzt wird.
Abstract:
A decoupler assembly for transferring rotary movement between an engine driven shaft and a serpentine belt. The decoupler includes a hub configured to be assembled to the shaft. The hub has a helical first slot formed therein. A pulley is rotatably coupled to the hub. A carrier is mounted on the hub and includes a helical second slot formed therein, as well as an anti-ramp up boss formed thereon. A thrust plate is fixed to the hub and has a slot formed therein. A torsion spring is compressed between a hub end retained in the helical first slot and a carrier end retained in the helical second slot for transferring torque between the hub and carrier. The anti-ramp up boss travels within the slot formed in the thrust plate for limiting rotation between the carrier and thrust plate and preventing rotation of the torsion spring relative to the hub and carrier.
Abstract:
A decoupler assembly is provided for allowing an alternator to be rotatably driven by a serpentine belt in an engine of an automotive vehicle and for allowing the speed of the belt to oscillate relative to the alternator. A hub is fixedly carried by a drive shaft from the alternator for rotation therewith. A pulley is rotatably journaled to the hub by a ball bearing assembly. A bare, helical clutch spring is operatively coupled between the hub and pulley for transferring rotational movement from the pulley to the hub during acceleration of the pulley relative to the hub by the serpentine belt and for allowing the hub to overrun the pulley during deceleration of the pulley relative to the hub. A torque limiter, preferably a spring or sleeve, is wrapped about the torsion limiting outward expansion of the torsion isolating the torsion spring from torques above a predetermined limit.
