Abstract:
A release arrangement for a hydraulically actuated clutch in a motor vehicle has an energy accumulator connected with a hydraulic system. The energy accumulator is connected with a pedal via a kinematic arrangement which adapts the pedal forces to the pedal path. It is possible to adapt the boosting force characteristic to the required pedal force curve in a very precise manner. This leads to a boosting force that possibly increases the depressing force, but primarily increases the force in the boosting area following the dead center of the kinematic arrangement. The characteristic of the boosting force curve over the pedal path can be adapted to the respective operating system in the motor vehicle without major structural alterations.

Abstract:
In a cylinder for a hydraulic system, a seal has a sealing bead clamped between a housing of the cylinder and a supporting part which holds the sealing bead in a deformed state by pretensioning. The seal is reliably held in its intended position by the supporting part and, therefore, pressure fluctuations in the pressure space do not cause a relative movement of the seal and wear of the sealing bead.
Abstract:
In a master/slave cylinder system for clutches or brakes, primary seals have bevels which interact with similar bevels of formations on housings of the respective cylinders. Along with the lowest possible friction in the region of the sealing lips, this permits carrying out uncomplicated pressure/negative-pressure filling in the case of the master cylinder. The primary seals slide by the wedge of effects in the direction of the pressure on the bevels of the annular formations and reduce the annular bearing face of the sealing lip in a frictionally optimized manner.

Presented is a hydraulic coupling for an actuating system for actuating a motor vehicle clutch. The hydraulic coupling includes a socket part defining an internal recess, a plug part configured for insertion into the socket part, a locking element that engages with the plug part and the socket part in an assembled state of the hydraulic coupling and which holds the plug part and the socket part captively together, a damping element that is configured for damping undesirable vibrations, with the damping element being supported on the locking element, and a support element disposed between the damping element and the locking element and extending around the entire circumference of the damping element.
Abstract:
A hydraulic cylinder includes a housing having a fluid connection for connecting to a hydraulic system and an after-running connection for connecting to a fluid after-running vessel, and a piston which is axially displaceable in the housing to define a variable pressure space having a gas collecting portion, the piston being fixed against rotation in the housing and having at least one after-running groove which is oriented substantially toward the gas collecting portion. A primary seal arranged in the housing and receiving the piston therethrough is bridged by the after-running groove when the piston is in an extended end position, whereby the gas collecting portion of the pressure space communicates with the after-running connection when the piston is in the extended end position.

Abstract:
This invention relates to apparatuses for non-contact three-dimensional measurement of bodies and methods for determining a system of coordinates for measuring points on an apparatus for non-contact three-dimensional measurement of bodies. The apparatus and the method are characterized by particular simplicity and easy implementation. Advantageously, this makes the apparatus and method applicable in production sites for special workpieces. This opens up a wide and highly cost-efficient range of uses. Before the workpieces are measured, a system of coordinates for three-dimensional matching of the workpiece geometry is determined in a first measurement. A body with known dimensions of its edges or lines is placed on any position on the turntable and measured during one rotation using the triangulation sensor. The apparatus according to the invention is thus characterized by its minimal design. The low number of movements required, i.e. one translatory movement of the triangulation sensor and a rotational movement of the turntable, results in determining the outline of a body with a minimal error of measurement.
Abstract:
An elastomeric seal seals a pipe which is held in a push-in part of a plug-in coupling relative to a cylindrical interior surface of a housing of the plug-in coupling, into which the push-in part is pushed together with the pipe. The seal is in prestressed contact with the interior surface of the housing via an outward-facing annular lip and with the pipe via a radially inward-facing annular lip. The elastomeric seal is connectable by positive fitting to the push-in part, this positive fit being lockable by the assembly of the pipe to form a non-releasable connection, the pipe having a cylindrical and uninterrupted exterior circumference in the region of the seal. The joint between the seal and the push-in part is simple to assemble and is lockable by the insertion of the pipe. The connection of the seal to the push-in part may be additionally secured, with certain changes of diameter, by compression of the web-shaped connection between them.
