Abstract: A synchronous drive apparatus includes first and a second rotors. The rotors have multiple teeth for engaging engaging sections of an elongate drive structure. A rotary load assembly couples to the second rotor. The elongate drive structure engages about the rotors. The first rotor drives and the second rotor is driven by the elongate drive structure. One of the rotors has a non-circular profile having at least two protruding portions alternating with receding portions. The rotary load assembly presents a periodic fluctuating load torque when driven in rotation. The angular positions of the protruding and receding portions of the non-circular profile relative to the angular position of the second rotor, and the magnitude of the eccentricity of the non-circular profile, are such that the non-circular profile applies to the second rotor an opposing fluctuating corrective torque which reduces or cancels the fluctuating load torque of the rotary load assembly.

Abstract: A headliner ventilation system that includes a headliner air duct positioned within the headliner along with an integrated pillar air duct for delivering air from a source, such as a heater and/or air conditioner, to the headliner air duct. The pillar air duct is integrally formed with the headliner air duct by use of a flexible hinge portion that allows the pillar air duct to be selectively positioned between a compact shipping state for easy storage and transport of the headliner and an extended state for easy installation into the vehicle. Because the pillar air duct is integrated with the headliner air duct, an adequate seal is ensured between the headliner air duct and the pillar air duct. In addition, less time and inventory are required, thereby reducing labor and expenses.
