Title: Self-tightening rim brake for bicycles
IPC: B62L1/16
Filed: 1989-04-27
Granted: 1992-01-15
Abstract: A pair of brake shoes (36) arranged opposite one another are intended for engaging the side faces of a rim (F) and are each fastened to the end region of an arm (30, 31) of a brake caliper (29). The arms (30, 31) are jointly pivotable, counter to the effect of a restoring spring (47), in a plane at a right angle to the direction of frictional force, and moreover the brake shoes are displaceable to a restricted extent in a direction at a right angle to the pivoting plane. The arms (30, 31) interact with a sloping face (23, 24), in order, during the displacement of the brake shoes (36), to be pressed against the corresponding side face of the rim (F) in an assisted manner. To reduce the danger that the arms (30, 31) will jam during the application of the brake and that consequently the braked wheel (11) will lock, the end regions of the two arms (30, 31) are each supported on a sloping face (23, 24) via a freely rotatable roller (51), these sloping faces (23 24) converging in the direction of frictional force and are anchored firmly to the bicycle frame (12, 13). The arms (30, 31) are each pivotable about their own pivot pin (33, 34'), and the sloping faces (23, 24) and rollers (51) are arranged between the respective brake shoe (36) and the pivot pin (33, 34').

Granted: 1993-06-23
Abstract: An overextensible, three-piece telescopic guide comprising an outer or housing bar (1), a middle bar (2) and an inner or drawer bar (3). The bars are slidable relatively to each other by means of two ball cages (4,5) respectively mounted between the housing bar and the middle bar and between the middle bar and the drawer bar. For the purpose of locking the bars (1,2,3) in the the direction of extension, loose sliding buffers (6,7) are mounted at both ends of the two ball cages (4,5) which sliding buffers are slidable within the corresponding bars and lock the middle and the drawer bars (2,3) in both extended end positions by means of end stops (12,14). At each end (10) of the middle bar (2) a substantially triangular tilting member (8) is mounted, by means of which the guide's movement in the direction of extension is defined so that the drawer bar (2) and the middle bar (3) first move jointly outwardly until the middle bar (2) has reached its end position.

Abstract: The fixture housing (10) has a fixed housing part (16a) which is surrounded by a shell element (18) pivotable about the axis (17). A connection piece (58), in which a guide bush (66) is inserted, projects forwardly from the shell element (18). The guide bush (66) defines, together with the inner wall (58'') of the connection piece (58), the shell space (78), which is connected to the atmosphere by means of the passage (90). In addition, the shell space (78) is flow-connected by means of the ventilation passage (92) to the annular duct (94) which is flow-connected by means of the ventilation conduit (100) to the ventilation opening (102) of the safety device (46). The water supplied through the feed pipe (44) is mixed in the control cartridge (42) and flows through the safety device (46) arranged downstream thereof and the pipe (52) into the hose (54) to the spray head (60). In conditions permitting a backflow of water into the feed pipe (44), the safety device (46) prevents this backflow and ventilates the pipe (52) and the hose (54) by freeing the ventilation opening (102). Any water escaping through the ventilation opening (102) during this process is conveyed through the ventilation duct (104) into the depression (130) of the sink (26).

Abstract: An electrospray ion source is designed for ready and simple plugging into commercial mass analyzers for mass spectrometric analysis of organic molecules. The electrospray is carried out is the ambient air and the ions and other charged species enter the mass analyuzer through a long metal capillary tube and three stages of differential pumping. The use of the long tube allows (a) convenient injection of the ions into the mass analyzer (b) optimization of the spray by direct visualization in the air (c) efficient and controlled heat transfer to the droplets and (d) efficient pumping of the region between the capillary exit and the skinner. Desolvation of the solvated ions is carried out using a combination of controlled heat transfer to the charged droplets during the transit through the tube and collisional activation in a region of reduced pressure. Desolvation with this system does not involve use of a strong countercurrent flow of heated gas. The system also may be used to obtain the collisional activated fragmentation spectra of molecule ions. The use of a metal capillary tube avoids complications from charging that arise from the use of dielectric capilliary tubes.

Abstract: A technique for invaginating the esophagus (20) at the gastroesophageal junction (10) is disclosed, as well as an invagination device (70) useful in the described technique. The invagination device includes an introducer guide (75) which has an outside diameter approximating that of the esophagus and a plurality of needle-receiving lumens (78) extending to its outer diametric surface. The invagination device also has an engagement assembly which includes 10 needles (88), each having a retracted position in which they lie within the needle-receiving lumens of the introducer guide, and an extended position in which they extend out of the lumens and project radially from the guide for engagement with the esophagus at the gastroesophageal junction. The invagination device is introduced transorally into the esophagus, its engagement assembly is activated to place the needles in their extended position in engagement with the esophagus, and the engaged invagination device is advanced the toward the stomach to fold the attached esophagus beyond the gastroesophageal junction. A remotely operable fastening assembly (50), which has been introduced into the stomach through an operating channel/insufflation port, is then operated to fasten the invaginated gastroesophageal junction to the surrounding involuted fundic wall. Finally, the needles are retracted back into their needle-receiving lumens and the invagination device and the fastening assembly are removed from the body of the patient. This minimally-invasive technique accomplishes the formation of a new valve between the esophagus and stomach, thus preventing acid reflux.
