Abstract: A thrust bearing configuration for rotary applications includes a shaft having an external surface and a housing having an internal surface. The housing and the shaft are adapted for relative rotational movement. Inner bearing support members extend radially outwardly from the external surface of the shaft in axially spaced relation. Outer bearing support members extend radially inwardly from the internal surface of the housing. A bearing pad is disposed between each one of the inner bearing support members and an adjacent one of the outer bearing support members. With the described configuration an axial force exerted upon the shaft is transmitted from the shaft through each of the inner bearing support members and bearing pads to the outer bearing support members and the housing. This thrust bearing acts like a bearing stack. It is possible to stack any number of these bearing pads to withstand anticipated axial loads.

Abstract: The invention relates to a gas generator (1) for unfolding and filling an impact cushion (24) of a restraint system. Said generator comprises a gas generator housing with a seal (2), for receiving fuel for producing filler gas for the impact cushion (24). The invention also relates to a restraint system for vehicles and a method for unfolding and filling the impact cushion (24) of one such restraint system. According to the invention, fuel is used exclusively to produce the filler gas, said fuel being in the liquid phase and ready to operate the gas generator (1), and if necessary, i.e. when the restraint system is triggered, abruptly evaporating. The evaporation required when the restraint system is triggered is caused by a release of pressure in the heated liquid fuel in a closed pressure chamber (3), said fuel being especially water.

Abstract: A lock mechanism for use with lever handles (36, 74) includes a lock core (10) and a latch mechanism (18) that is rigidly connected to the lock core (10).  Stops and a spring return mechanism (130, 132) are entirely located within the lock core (10), allowing the rose (50) to be thin. The lock core (10) defines the rest position for the lever handles (36, 74) at an angle slightly above horizontal. The lock core (10) is made substantially symmetrical about a vertical plane, instead of a horizontal plane, and the inner and outer sides of the lock mechanism can be interchanged. A heavy-duty locking piece (86), including a pair of locking lugs (82, 84) that directly engage the lock core (10) near its inner perimeter, allow the lock to withstand abusive forces applied through the lever handle (36). Endplay is nearly completely eliminated through the use of collars (48, 70) that connect the interchangeable inner and outer sides of the lock to the lock core (10).
