Alternatively, a mechanical stop may provide the different spatial sensitivity.

According to the invention, a second mechanical stop is arranged between two other shafts as the first stop.

An adjustable mechanical stop for a tube bender is disclosed.

A mechanical stop may be provided to limit inward deflection.

A tube bender incorporating the mechanical stop is also disclosed.

The metering valve (19) incorporates a positive mechanical stop to limit valve lift.

The stroke limiter (11) is of an electro-mechanical type including, besides an electrical contact, a mechanical stop.

The mechanical stop preferably has an opening (50) which is disposed at least around one end of the integral key (30).

The attachment means may be a mechanical stopper, a magnet, a clasp, a rivet, or an adhesive.

A mechanical stop (14) which is separate from the rolls (2,3) is arranged to halt the closing movement.

Unlike a conventional mechanical stop, which absorbs and then partially restores energy, the hydraulic stops absorb and dissipate this energy.

Unlike a mechanical stop, which absorbs and partially returns energy, the hydraulic cushions absorb and dissipate energy.

Unlike a mechanical stop, which absorbs and partially returns energy, the hydraulic cushions absorb and dissipate energy.

Unlike a conventional mechanical stop, which absorbs the energy then partially returns it, the hydraulic cushion absorbs and dissipates the energy.

Unlike a traditional mechanical stop, which absorbs energy but returns a part of it, the hydraulic stop absorbs and dissipates this energy.
