Apparatus for testing endurance of brake hose
Disclosed is a brake hose endurance testing apparatus, including: a plurality of first fitting members inserted at one end of the brake hose into a plurality of first fixing brackets; a first mounting block attached to the plurality of first fixing brackets and configured to move up and down; a vertical driving unit configured to drive the first mounting block up and down; a second mounting block attached to a plurality of second fitting members inserted at the opposite end of the brake hose into a plurality of second fixing brackets or attached and fixed to moving brackets; and a horizontal driving unit configured to drive the moving brackets to move left and right, wherein the first and second fitting members of the brake hose are universal fitting members laid out to reflect the interference characteristics between the brake hose and peripheral components.
Systems, methods, and apparatuses for engaging and transporting objects
Systems, methods, and apparatuses for engaging, lifting, and moving objects such as wheeled cargo trailers are provided. In one embodiment, a mobile apparatus includes a transport mechanism, a frame, and one or more lift assemblies. The lift assemblies may be adjusted using one or more attached actuators that position the lift assemblies and/or components thereof for engaging and lifting an object. The transport mechanism may be autonomously operated. A vision system may be used to locate and identify objects and/or guide the mobile apparatus into position to engage and lift the objects. An adapter for a pneumatic braking system of a wheeled cargo trailer is also provided. The adapter provides a pneumatic attachment for a pressurized air source that is separate from a glad hands connector attached to the braking system.
Holding assembly
A holding assembly for securing a flange part which is provided on a braking device on an bulkhead of a motor vehicle, which bulkhead divides an engine compartment from a vehicle interior, wherein a holding plate is fastened on the side of the bulkhead facing the engine compartment and is provided with a form-locking connection that engages with the flange part.
REVERSIBLE BRAKE TUBE CONNECTOR
A fluid connector assembly comprised of a connector body having a female end portion and a male end portion. The female end portion includes an internal bore extending through the female end portion from an annular opening to an inner seat. The inner seat defining a concave frustoconical surface. The male end portion includes an internal bore axially aligned with the female bore extending from an opening at a head end of the male end portion to a second opening at the female end portion inner seat. The head end including an abutting face disposed around the first opening. The connector body arranged to accept an elongated tube having a concave flared end extending through said male bore from said first opening with said flared end resting on said inner seat. The connector body is further adapted to receive an elongated tube having a spherical/convex flared end through the female bore and the male bore with the spherical/convex flared end extending outward from the first opening at the head end with the spherical/convex flare resting on the abutting face.
FLUID RESERVOIR WITH A STOP VALVE
A fluid container for supplying a consuming device with a working fluid, including at least one connector piece having a shut-off valve arranged therein for preventing undesired escaping of the working fluid from the fluid container. In order to increase safety against undesired emptying of the fluid container, it is provided that the valve closure body, in the closed state of the shut-off valve, is accommodated in the fluid container completely inside a contour formed by an outer edge of the connector piece, and provision is made, for support against the valve closure body, of a support, which, upon insertion of the connector piece into the receiving seat, engages at least regionally into the connecting duct and in this way displaces the valve closure body in the connecting duct.
Hydraulic bicycle system
A normally closed port valve seals a hydraulic hose connection port of a hydraulic bicycle component. Connection of an end of a hydraulic hose assembly to the port opens the valve, placing the assembly's hydraulic fluid chamber in fluid communication with the interior of the hose assembly. A hydraulic cylinder of the assembly is in fluid communication with the chamber. A spring may be used to bias the valve to a closed condition.
Hydraulic block for a hydraulic assembly of a slip control system of a hydraulic vehicle brake system
A hydraulic block of a slip control system of a hydraulic vehicle brake system includes receptacles for the hydraulic accumulator and receptacles for outlet valves arranged on opposite sides of each other in the hydraulic block. The sides of the hydraulic block, which comprise the receptacles for the outlet valves and the hydraulic accumulators, are connected to one another by bores perpendicular thereto.
ECP overlay system for W-type triple valve
An ECP overlay system for a W-type triple valve includes a manifold body having a pipe bracket face configured to engage a face of a pipe bracket of a vehicle brake system, a valve face configured to engage a face of a W-type triple valve of a vehicle brake system, and an electric manifold face. The system also includes an electric manifold assembly engaged with the electric manifold face of the manifold body, with the electric manifold assembly having a pneumatic mode here the electric manifold assembly is configured to allow pneumatic-only control of a brake cylinder of vehicle brake system and an ECP mode where the electric manifold assembly is configured to allow electronic control of a brake cylinder of a vehicle brake system.
Apparatus, system, and method for use in brake caliper inspection
A brake caliper inspection apparatus that includes a housing including an interior and a plurality of ports that provide access to the interior. The apparatus also includes a plurality of components each coupled to a port of the plurality of ports. The plurality of components includes a sensor configured to monitor a gauge pressure within said interior, a nozzle configured to channel fluid therethrough, and a viewing dome configured to provide a visual indication of an air-to-fluid ratio within said interior.
Hydraulic line connection for a hydraulic brake for handlebar steering and handlebar with hydraulic brake
A hydraulic line connection for a hydraulic brake of vehicles with handlebar steering comprises a line-fastening device, which has a fastening portion for fastening the line-fastening device in a support of a hydraulic component of the hydraulic brake and a connecting portion for connection with a hydraulic line, wherein the line-fastening device has an extension, which is attached to the fastening portion on the side opposite to the connecting portion.
