Patent EP-0915778-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GOODRICH RONALD W
IPC: B60P1/44
Filed: 1998-06-10
Abstract: An under floor lift comprising a horizontal, U-shaped header framework which is mountable between a vehicle axle and floor, and which reciprocatingly receives a nestable carriage comprising a second U-shaped framework. The carriage comprises a transverse motor mount plate and a pair of spaced, horizontal arms between which is received the lift platform. The platform is pivotably suspended, lifted and lowered by spaced pairs of parallelogram linkages pivotably secured at their outboard ends to the outboard end of the carriage side rails and at their inboard ends to the inboard end of the lift platform. The carriage is telescoped by a gear and chain mechanism from an inboard stowed position horizontally out to a transfer level deployed position. The wheelchair lift is moved by a hydraulic/chain drive downwardly and upwardly supported by the parallelogram arms to or from a ground level position, to permit the lift to be an in-swing, negative type lift. An automatically transitioning inboard bridge plate is pivoted to the platform, and during decent inclines and forms an inboard barrier. The bridge plate is slidably mounted on channels or rails which are in turn mounted on a support plate pivotably mounted to the outboard edge of the carriage motor mount plate. The combination of the bridge and support plate assembly provides excellent stability to the lift mechanism, essentially eliminating lateral sway way and the problems attendant thereto.

Abstract: A washing drum is positioned inside a retaining sleeve (5) of a rigid bearing bracket (1) by means of an at least approximately horizontally arranged shaft (4), said bearing bracket (1) being mounted on a bottom surface (3) of a lye container. The inventive drive unit can be mounted on the rear side of the lye container. Said drive unit comprises a flat motor (7) with a stator support member (8), exciter windings (13) a rotor (10) and magnetisable poles (15), and drives the washing drum directly. The stator support member (8) and the rotor (10) of the motor (7) are detachably interconnected for the duration of transportation before the drive unit is finally mounted on the bottom surface (3) of the lye container, wherein the position of said stator support member (8) in relation to the rotor (10) corresponds to the operating position. This ensures that the motor (7) is already fully pre-assembled and tested on delivery to the washing machine manufacturing facility and can be built into the washing machines more simply. Therefore, no additional intervention is required in installing the motor (7). This avoids the risk of interfering with the tolerances which are necessary for the motor to function properly.

Abstract: Sensor systems and devices with a detecting (especially ion-selective or redox) electrode and reference electrode with the detecting electrode (and preferably both electrodes) covered by a permeable barrier interfacing with samples under examination so that the main bridging contact between the electrodes to complete a measuring circuit is not through the sample. The permeable barrier encloses a liquid zone (e.g. electrolyte) at the electrodes and controls, by restricting diffusion, the passage of analytes and impurities in either direction through the barrier. The main function of the permeable barrier is to slow the rate of diffusion of analyte. More rapid identification of the analyte content in a sample can be facilitated, e.g. by 'loading' the liquid zone with analyte or impurity to control diffusion. The strongly preferred method for analyte determination is based on using measurements of the rate of change of the detecting electrode's output potential as analyte diffuses through the barrier.

Abstract: The godet roller (2) assembly, for synthetic filaments, is mounted to a linked arm (6) together with the deflection tine, mounted (7) to the machine frame. The godet (2) axis (8) is supported by bearings (9a,b), with a drive roller (12) at the free end in contact with a motor drive shaft in the working position, which extends along the machine length as a common drive for all the workstations. A mechanism acts on the swing arms (6) to hold the drive roller (12) with a given pressure against the drive shaft during normal working, and detach the roller from the shaft when not in use. The drive roller (12) has a cladding (13), preferably of rubber. A spring (17) gives the required pressure against the drive shaft. One end of the spring is at a pedestal (7) supporting the godet (2) and the other end is at the machine frame. The swing axis for the support arms (6) is positioned so that, in the working position, the spring tension holds the drive roller against the drive shaft and, when not in use, holds the roller clear of the drive shaft. The godet (2) is electrically heated, pref. by induction.
