Title: Electrical supply control system for a motor vehicle
IPC: B60R16/04
Filed: 1989-09-04
Granted: 1993-01-13
Abstract: A typical motor vehicle has an electrical storage battery (BT) to power its electrical facilities (L), including facilities which normally consume current when the vehicle is left unattended. A control system (CU) for the electrical supply system comprises means for generating a first relatively low reference voltage (VR1) and a second relatively high reference voltage (VR2), each selected to conform to a pre-selected battery condition; a first timing means (T1) operable for a relatively short period and a second timing means (T2) operable for a relatively long period. The timers operate from the time when the driver leaves the vehicle. A first voltage comparator (C1) is arranged to compare the actual battery voltage with the first reference voltage after said relatively short period and thereafter to provide a low battery signal if the actual voltage is below the first reference voltage. Similarly a second voltage comparator (C2) is arranged to compare actual battery voltage with the second reference voltage after said relatively long period and thereafter to provide a low battery signal if the actual voltage is below the first reference voltage. The battery is isolated from the electrical system (at master switch MS) in response to either low battery signal to preserve some battery charge and is reconnected by the driver on return to the vehicle, for example in response operation of an ignition switch (IS).

Abstract: The invention relates to a blind riveting member of the type comprising a tubular sleeve (1) and a mandrel (2) passing through said sleeve. The stem portion (5) of the tubular sleeve (1) comprises successively along its length, a first articulation zone (5a), an inclined portion (5b), a second articulation zone (5c) and an end portion (5d). These zones or portions are arranged in such a manner that the sleeve is subjected to a double folding during setting of the rivet which causes the inclined portion to expand and fold back upon itself toward the materials being assembled, forming a continuous rest surface at the periphery of the hole which contains the riveting member. The invention is applied in particular for assembling fragile materials such as composite materials. It permits providing a good vibration resistant holding for these materials without risk of damaging the same.

Abstract: This invention relates to rechargeable manganese dioxide cells (usually alkaline cells with zinc anodes or cells having non-aqueous electrolyte and lithium anodes), and particularly to the cathode therefor. In keeping with the present invention, the cathodes are essentially unconstrained, that is, no cage is used in the cell between the cathodes and the anodes. The cathode is restricted from significantly changing its dimensions during discharge of the cell, when it is inclined to swell, as opposed to the tendency of the cathode to contract during a charge cycle. The cathode substantially fills the entire space allotted for it within the cell, with a slight accommodation for height-wise or longitudinal expansion or growth of the cathode of bobbin-type cells, or cross-wise expansion or growth of button-type cells. There may be additives in the cathode mix, including particularly conductive fibres of graphite or other conductive materials; and other materials may also be added to the cathode mix, including metallic additives. Methods of manufacture are also provided by the present invention, including compaction and recompaction of the cathode pellet, and a range of compaction pressures is suggested. Cells in keeping with the present invention are capable of exhibiting high current drain rates, and long cycle life.

Abstract: 2.1 Test devices for earth-fault circuit breakers have the object of closing an auxiliary circuit when a test button is operated, in order to be able to test the operation of the earth-fault circuit breaker. In this case, it must be ensured that the auxiliary circuit cannot be closed in the switched-off state. 2.2 The invention indicates a means by which a test device is combined with an auxiliary circuit and a test button (7) having a contact position display device (6), a switch shaft (1) which is connected to the moving contact (2) additionally being equipped with a bending spring (4) which is used not only as an operating device for the contact position display device (6) but also makes contact with a contact spring (5) of the auxiliary circuit when the contacts (2, 3) are closed. When the contacts (2, 3) are opened, the contact spring (5) cannot make contact with the bending spring (4), so that the auxiliary circuit remains opened even if the test button (7) is operated. 2.3 The test device can be used in all types of earth-fault circuit breakers, but is particularly suitable for earth-fault circuit breakers of narrow construction. <IMAGE>
