A control unit for controlling an electromotive drive unit has a housing (), which can be connected to the drive unit by a mechanical interface device, and a plug-in device () provided on the housing, for plugging in a cable () that is guided to the hosing from the outside, wherein contact pins () of the plug-in device are arranged in at least one slot () of the plug-in device () and are electrically connected to conductor tracks of a circuit board (), which is arranged on the inside of the housing. The at least one slot () is arranged on the side () of the housing () facing away from the drive unit and is formed by a connector collar (), which is configured as one piece with the housing () and made of the same polymer material.

Control unit for controlling an electromotive drive unit

A fuel injector for an internal combustion engine which includes a housing having a flange for mounting the fuel injector to a cylinder head, a pump jet and at least one electrical component internal of the housing, a pair of electrical connector leads for the electrical component, an aperture extending through the flange, and a portion of the electrical connector leads extending from internally of the housing and terminating in the aperture, thereby permitting the pair of electrical connector leads to be connected with another pair of electrical connector leads in the aperture. The ends of the electrical connector leads are preferably provided with electrical connecting elements secured in the aperture and the other pair of electrical connector leads may be provided in the form of an extension or plug adapted to engage the electrical connecting elements in the aperture.

Fuel injector for internal combustion engines

A recording and/or reproducing apparatus (1) for a tape (12) in a cassette (2) includes a tape-guide device (24) for withdrawing the tape (12) from the cassette (2), wrapping the tape around a tape-guide drum (34) , and returning the tape into the cassette (2). The tape-guide device (24) includes a supporting ring (49) which is rotatable relative to the tape-guide drum (34), for carrying at least two tape guides (22,23), a first tape-guide (22) keeping the tape (12) wrapped around the tape-guide drum (34) and a second tape-guide (23) which in its operating position keeps the tape (12) away from the tape-guide drum (34). The second tape guide (23) is arranged on a lever (57) which is pivotable relative to the supporting ring (49) under the influence of the tape tension forces exerted on it, against the force of a spring (61) which acts on the lever (57), thus precluding looping of the tape and the occurrence of excessive tape-tension forces during change-over between search modes in different directions and when the tape is returned into the cassette (2).

Cassette recorder with improved tape tension control

A magnetic tape cassette for a tape recorder, having at least one erase interlock device including an actuating member movable over a defined path in the cassette between a operating position in which an opening in the housing is uncovered, and a position in which the opening is closed. The cassette includes at least one latching element preventing movement from a third position and either of the first two positions. Preferably the latch is movable, and in addition the interlock may be set in a fourth position from which it can be moved only upon disassembly of the cassette.
