If the company is defunct, where do Bendix brake products come from in the modern era? knoodelhed 07:52, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
- http://www.bendix.com/index.do
- "Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems LLC, a member of the Knorr-Bremse Group, supplies air brakes, charging and control systems and components, wheel-end and electronic braking systems, vehicle modules and leading-edge safety technologies under the Bendix® brand name for medium-duty and heavy-duty trucks, tractors, trailers, buses and other commercial vehicles. Employing more than 1,800 people, Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems is headquartered in Elyria, Ohio, with manufacturing plants in Acuña, Mexico, Frankfort, Ky., and Huntington, Ind."
"In 1937, at a Louisiana state fair, Bendix Corporation introduced the first automatic washer that washed, rinsed and extracted water from garments in one process." Is this statement true?
I work for what once was a division of The Bendix Corporation. I've been able to find no one that can support the claim that The Bendix Corporation actually made washing machines. The stories told locally are that the company licensed their name to another company that made the machines. Can anyone provide any historical references supporting one story or the other?
My Father worked for Bendix 1953-72. He more than once said Bendix of Mishawaka had nothing to do with the washing machines. The washing machines were junk and the name dogged the company for years. Another was that the company's first product was a spring which went inside GM's starter solenoid. It had the Bendix name on it and eventually the entire assembly became known as "The Bendix".

- A starter drive with an overrun clutch, for engaging and disengaging the electric starter and the engine flywheel is indeed commonly called a 'bendix' (lowercase) since the early days of American automobiles. I have no source to cite, but it should be in the article, including your info concerning the spring. I doubt if this usage is common overseas, but it is certainly notable in the States.

This article needs mention and a link to RIM-8 Talos-- Turnbull FL ( talk) 15:00, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
- I agree, and I added a link to the wiki article in the See also section. KeptSouth ( talk) 09:30, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
There doesn't appear to be any discussion here on why it is necessary, and I don't see the need for clean up or wikificiation, so I removed the tag. KeptSouth ( talk) 09:30, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
- This is the worst article I've read in a long time and it has multiple issues. The top pic is a product not made by Bendix. It reads as though it wasn't originally written in English. It needs expansion and I am not qualified.
- If you see something you recognize as substandard, and you can improve it, then you ARE qualified. No PhD required. Jump in and help. If you err, all is easy corrected or reverted. Be bold. But, please sign your posts, and the indentation convention makes the discussion page simpler to follow. Rags ( talk) 00:11, 4 September 2016 (UTC)

- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
I propose to merge Bendix Aviation into Bendix Corporation. The former appears to not be a separate company, but actually just a change in name of the latter. For example, according to a 1929 newspaper article:
Vincent Bendix today announced the organization of the Bendix Aviation Corporation, with an authorized issue of 3,000,000 shares of which 2,200,000 shares presently will be outstanding. "The Bendix Aviation Corporation is being formed," Mr. Bendix stated, "to acquire the assets and business of the Bendix Corporation and subsidiaries; including the Bendix Brake company, the Eclipse Machine company and its subsidiaries, the Delco Aviation Corporation, the assets and business of the Stromberg Carburetor company of America including its subsidiaries, the Scintilla Magneto Corporation, and other companies in the general aviation accessory field. [emphasis added]
Therefore, neither of the above existed separately at the same time. At most, one was a subsidiary of the other – and I suspect that might simply be a distinction that existed only on paper and was likely quickly eliminated even there. As further evidence, the article for the former states that [t]he company was renamed to Bendix Corporation in 1960
.
As such, Bendix Aviation does not seem to be deserving of a separate article from Bendix Corporation. For precedent, see the recent merger of Farchild Industries into Fairchild Aircraft. – Noha307 ( talk) 20:49, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- This sounds reasonable to me, one is barely more than a stub as is.
Kyteto (

- As further evidence, the National Air and Space Museum has uploaded an unsigned contract from 1929 that reads, in part:
3. Bendix Corporation will transfer all its assets, subject to liabilities, or cause to be transferred all its capital stock, to Bendix Aviation Corporation for 1,140,000 shares of stock.
- The remainder of the text matches the claims, specifically the acquisitions of other companies, in the first quote. – Noha307 ( talk) 18:11, 7 September 2021 (UTC)

Hey, i was reading through the patents for the Moiré effect light. (link for the patents) https://patents.google.com/patent/US4474430A/en I was scrolling through the patents to find more information on the previous patents and possible creators and purposes of the mark before Inogon. I checked the page, and there was nothing on their possible patent or patent attempt on the mark. Correct me if i'm wrong or this is just a patent attempt. Information is very hard to come by on this subject anyway, so i dont blame you if you cant find anything. Spaghettimaghetti ( talk) 19:18, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
