A nested bushing arrangement may comprise a first nested bushing coupled to a second nested bushing. Each nested bushing may comprise a mating aperture located opposite an annulus body. The annulus body of each nested bushing may insert within the mating aperture of the opposite nested bushing to couple the first nested bushing to the second nested bushing.

The present invention relates to a cooling device (8) comprising: a housing (22); a crank (28) rotationally movable relative to the housing (22); a piston (16); a coupling component (34) rotationally mounted on the crank (28), the coupling component (34) having a first edge (54) facing the piston (16) and a second edge (56) opposite the first edge (54); a deformable element (64) integrated in the coupling component (34) and integrated in the piston (16), the deformable element (64) being configured to translationally move the piston (16) relative to the housing while deforming, when the crank (28) is rotated relative to the housing (22), the deformable element (64) being integrated in the second edge (56) of the coupling component (34).

A link for a wheel suspension of a vehicle may include a middle section and two end sections. The end sections may have connecting points for receiving linking and/or joining elements. The object of providing a link that has sufficient stability and rigidity throughout a service life of that link and that can be produced cost-effectively is accomplished at least in part and at least in some cases by way of the middle section of the link being formed from at least two shells. The at least two shells may in some cases have substantially U-shaped cross sections, and the at least two shells may be joined together by integral bonding, force locking, and/or form fitting in a butt joint or a lap joint.

A link arm member of the present invention is used in a vehicle for connecting a suspension and a stabilizer, and includes: a support bar that is sealed by plastically deforming a hollow metal pipe at both ends thereof; and a housing part made of resin that is arranged at each end of the support bar and has a receiving hole for receiving a ball part of a ball stud to which the suspension or the stabilizer is fixed, wherein the housing part is formed by insert molding with the support bar.

A linkage extends between an actuator and a valve in a turbocharger. The linkage comprises two spaced member bodies having central portions with opposing curved shapes that extend between ends translatable along and rotatable about spaced pivots. Translation of one member toward the other member compresses the central portions, increasing overall stiffness of the linkage, and translation of one member away from the other member creates a gap between the central portions, allowing independent translation of the ends along the spaced pivots to compensate for misalignment between the actuator and the valve caused by heat and vibration. Another linkage extending between an actuator and a valve in a turbocharger includes two planar spaced member bodies extending between ends translatable along and rotatable about spaced pivots. The two member bodies have different thicknesses.

A nested bushing arrangement is provided. The nested bushing arrangement may maximize bushing retention length in a narrow and/or small joint, and may offer anti-rotation features in the event that the nested bushing arrangement becomes loose. The nested bushing arrangement may comprise a first nested bushing coupled to a second nested bushing. Each nested bushing may comprise a mating aperture located opposite an annulus body. The annulus body of each nested bushing may insert within the mating aperture of the opposite nested bushing to couple the first nested bushing to the second nested bushing.

A suspension arm includes a suspension arm body having a tubular joint portion defining an opening in an end surface, and a bushing receiving sleeve integrally welded to the end surface of the tubular joint portion to seal the opening in the end surface. The end surface is curved to have a circular arc profile complementary to the cylindrical outer surface of the bushing receiving sleeve so that when butted against the cylindrical outer surface the end surface is in contact with the cylindrical outer surface on its entire periphery. The end surface is butted against the cylindrical outer surface in the entire periphery and then welded along the entire periphery to the cylindrical outer surface.
