A sensing device for vehicle includes a first sensing part configured to sense first information related to a wheel to generate a first signal; a second sensing part configured to sense second information related to the wheel to generating a second signal; a first insert to which the first sensing part is fixed; a second insert to which the second sensing part is fixed, the second insert being coupled to the first insert; at least one first connection part connected to the first sensing part and configured to supply a first power to the first sensing part or to transmit the first signal; at least one second connection part connected to the second sensing part and configured to supply a second power to the second sensing part or to transmit the second signal; and a body configured to accommodate the first and second sensing parts therein.
Suspension arm and ball joint
A suspension arm includes a ball stud including a spherical ball; a bearing in which the ball is accommodated; a housing having an inner peripheral portion, an outer peripheral portion, and a lower end portion that connects a lower end of the inner peripheral portion and a lower end of the outer peripheral portion, and configured to accommodate the ball and the bearing in a state in which the ball and the bearing are spaced apart from the inner peripheral portion; an arm body coupled to a portion of the outer peripheral portion of the housing; and an insert molding part formed on an outer peripheral portion of the bearing, the inner peripheral portion of the housing, and the lower end portion of the housing to couple the bearing with the housing. A convex-concave portion is formed on the inner peripheral portion of the housing along a circumferential direction.
HINGE FOR ORTHOPEDIC DEVICE
A hinge has a hinge body forming an articulating section extending between a first end and a second end of the hinge. The articulating section is adapted to bend from a neutral axis when the first and second ends are parallel to an angular range in which the first end is arranged among a plurality of angles within the angular range relative to the second end. The hinge body may define a receptacle along the articulating section, and an insert may be provided for insertion into the receptacle. The insert can modify the stiffness of the hinge in the angular range and is arranged parallel to the neutral axis.
INSERT SINTERED PART AND MANUFACTURING METHOD FOR SAME
By using a forming die having a fixed die and a movable die moving along a parting surface on the fixed die and by moving the movable die along the parting surface, to press and hold a sintered part between the movable die and the fixed die, to form a cavity around the sintered part except parts which abut on the fixed die and the movable die by the forming die, and to fill the cavity with melted material which becomes an exterior part, so that the sintered part and the exterior part are integrated by insert molding.
Hinge for orthopedic device
A hinge has a hinge body forming an articulating section extending between a first end and a second end of the hinge. The articulating section is adapted to bend from a neutral axis when the first and second ends are parallel to an angular range in which the first end is arranged among a plurality of angles within the angular range relative to the second end. The hinge body may define a receptacle along the articulating section, and an insert may be provided for insertion into the receptacle. The insert can modify the stiffness of the hinge in the angular range and is arranged parallel to the neutral axis.
MOTOR BEARING PRELOADING SYSTEM WITH PLASTIC ENDBELLS
A motor assembly has an enhanced retention system for minimizing axial and radial movement of the bearings and output shaft. A front endbell assembly is fixed to a front end of the motor, the front endbell assembly including a plastic front endbell and a front bearing assembly through which a driving end of the output shaft extends. The plastic front endbell is over-molded about the front bearing assembly and elasticity of the plastic front endbell operates to preload the front bearing assembly to restrict axial movement of the front bearing assembly. Similarly, a rear endbell assembly is fixed to a rear end of the motor opposite from the front end, the rear endbell assembly including a plastic rear endbell and a rear bearing assembly into which a rear end of the output shaft extends. The plastic rear endbell is over-molded about the rear bearing assembly and elasticity of the plastic rear endbell operates to preload the rear bearing assembly to restrict axial movement of the rear bearing assembly. A spring or an appropriately sized output shaft may be used to preload the bearing assemblies oppositely from the over-molded plastic endbells.
ROTOR FOR ELECTRIC WATER PUMPS AND SLIDING BEARING DEVICE FOR WATER PUMPS
To provide a rotor for electric water pumps in which a sliding bearing formed of a thermoplastic resin composition can be produced at a low cost and has superior low friction and low wear property, and an inner diameter of the sliding bearing is hardly contracted by the insert-molding. A rotor 1 used for electric water pumps has a main body 2 that supports an impeller of the pump, a sliding bearing 3 that rotatably supports a shaft, and a magnet 4 disposed to face a stator. The sliding bearing 3 is an annealing treated body of a polyphenylene sulfide resin composition. The polyphenylene sulfide resin composition contains 5-30 vol % of carbon fiber, 1-20 vol % of polytetrafluoroethylene resin and 1-30 vol % of graphite relative to the whole volume of the polyphenylene sulfide resin composition. The main body 2 is an injection-molded body disposed by insert-molding a thermoplastic resin composition, which is different from the polyphenylene sulfide resin composition, at an outer diameter side of the sliding bearing 3.
Guide carriage of a linear guide and method for producing a head piece of a guide carriage
A guide carriage (1) of a linear guide includes a circulation channel (8) for rolling bodies (2), which is formed from a load section (3), two deflection sections (5) and a return section (4). A valve (16) arranged in a lubricant channel (10) to prevent the back flow of lubricant from the circulation channel (8) is arranged at a supply point (13) for supplying lubricating agent to one of the deflection sections (5), and the deflection section (5) is delimited by a deflection shell (9) located in an end piece (7). The valve (16) is formed integrally with at least one of the elements deflection shell (9) and end piece (7).
JOINING ARRANGEMENT HAVING A RECEIVER AND A BALL JOINT
The present invention relates to a joining arrangement having a receiver with a receiving opening and having a ball joint which is spread open into the receiver, wherein the ball joint comprises a joint pin with a joint ball and a joint socket for receiving the joint ball, wherein the joint socket has at least two wings with in each case one internally situated joint surface, wherein the joint surfaces are in contact with the joint ball and enclose the joint ball in sections. According to the invention, the wings have in each case one reboundable resilience section by means of which the respective joint surface presses with a defined force onto the joint ball.
