Abstract: A twist beam (10) is manufactured from a tube and has a shorter sectional perimeter in the "V" or "U" shape center section and a longer sectional perimeter at the beam ends (14, 16). The present disclosure therefore proposes to use a tubular member having a predetermined length. The tubular member is deformed at the center section of the tube into a "V" or "U" shape and then expanded at both end portions. This structure is formed using a closed die internal pressure forming process such as hydro - forming or blow molding or the like. The ends of the tubular member may also have a substantially oval or rectangular section. The tubular member of the present disclosure may also be heat treated in the closed die internal forming process to achieve a higher material strength. In this manner, the twist beam of the present disclosure is optimized to use the smallest possible section along its entire length, thus has a substantially lower mass and can be manufactured using less material and therefore at a substantially lower cost.

Abstract: A door check for an automobile has an arm with a cam formed between oppositely directed flanks. A unitary energy storage component cooperates with the arm to provide progressive resistance to opening and closing and a plurality of stable positions. The unitary energy storage component includes a pair of springs, each connected to shoes that bear against the flanks and load the springs in torsion as the shoes moves along the cam. The unitary energy storage component is formed as an integral unit to facilitate handling and assembly.

Abstract: An automotive hood hinge assembly is adapted to act as a safety device in the event of a collision with a pedestrian. The hood hinge assembly is constructed from a series of linkages and an energy storage actuator that is configured to raise the rear of a vehicle hood in response to a pedestrian collision. The deployed system forms a rigid structure that restrains rearward movement of the hood while providing a vertical motion path and resistive force capable of efficiently dissipating the energy imparted by the pedestrian and therefore significantly lowering injury levels. The linkages are configured to provide conventional rotary opening and closing motion of the hood when the system is in the retracted position and also provide a reset function so that a simple opening and closing motion of the hood when the system is in the deployed position resets it to the retracted position.

Abstract: Ein Querlenker weist eine erste Doppelschalenhälfte und eine zweite Doppelschalenhälfte, ein Kugelgelenkgehäuse und einen Blattabschnitt auf. Der Blattabschnitt ist mit dem Kugelgelenkgehäuse einstückig gebildet, weist eine erste und eine zweite Seite auf und ist zwischen der ersten Doppelschalenhälfte und der zweiten Doppelschalenhälfte angeordnet. Eine erste Schweißverbindung kann die erste Doppelschalenhälfte mit der ersten Seite des Blattabschnitts verbinden, und eine zweite Schweißverbindung kann die zweite Doppelschalenhälfte mit der zweiten Seite des Blattabschnitts verbinden. Die Befestigung der ersten Doppelschalenhälfte an der ersten Seite des Blattabschnitts und die Befestigung der zweiten Doppelschalenhälfte an der zweiten Seite des Blattabschnitts können durch das Fehlen einer Niete und einer Schraube charakterisiert werden.

Abstract: An electro-magnetic mechanism comprises a spring-operated rod (1) having a recess (1a) and a latching member (2) engageable in the recess to block motion of the rod. A release member (4) retains the latching member engaged in the recess (1a) in a first position of the release member and allows the latching member to be disengaged from the recess in a second position of the release member (4). A magnet (5) retains the release member in the first position and the mechanism includes an element such as a spring (7) for urging the release member (4) to the second position. A coil (8) is arranged to demagnetize the magnet (5) at least such that the release member moves to the second position, the latching member (2) is disengaged from the recess (1a) and the rod (1) moves axially by spring force.

Abstract: An automotive hinge assembly adapted to facilitate motion of a closure panel relative to a fixed body structure comprises a door component constructed from two press formed angle brackets structurally connected via a pivot pin and adapted to be mounted to a vehicle closure panel, a body component constructed from two press formed angle brackets structurally connected via a simple formed feature and the pivot pin and adapted to be mounted to a vehicle body structure, such that the pivot pin structurally assembles the two hinge components, facilitates relative rotary motion between them and structurally connects the multiple press formed angle brackets so that the resulting assembly achieves a much higher material efficiency than the prior art with an associated significant cost reduction.

Abstract: A structural attachment system for a cargo management system is fully integrated into the cargo bed side walls of a pick-up truck so that the only feature that is different than a standard pick-up is an array of holes along the top of the cargo bed side walls. The cargo management system also includes a wide range of different pick-up truck cargo bed mounted accessories that incorporate structural hooks that are adapted to be retained and released by the structural attachment system. Additionally, the structural attachment system provides a single point, simple method of retention and release via an actuation handle at the rear most point of the pick-up truck cargo bed. The configuration of the structural attachment system allows significant structural retention forces to be transferred from the accessories into the pick-up truck cargo bed side walls via the structural hooks.
