Patent EP-1452675-A2 (EP)
Inventor: THEIL FRANK
IPC: E05C9/18
Filed: 2003-11-26
Abstract: A locking system for a door or window has a main lock operated by a handle and/or key and a secondary lock operated by a slider (5) coupled to a rack and pinion servo drive. The connection between the rack and the slider is via a pin and slot which, when the servo drive is set into the parking position, provides sufficient movement in the coupling to cater for manual operation of the lock, i.e. the lock can be operated manually without dragging the servo drive. The maximum play in the coupling exceeds the manual displacement by 2 mm in either direction. The invention is also applicable to locking systems with a servo drive for both the main and secondary catches.

Abstract: The present invention provides a commodity carrying-out apparatus
of an automatic vending machine capable of reliably carrying out a
commodity one by one without causing falling down or clinging of the
commodities, and efficiently housing even commodities having no
definite shape. 
     According to the present invention, the commodities in the
commodity column can be supported by the commodity supporting members,
and therefore even when the commodity carried out of the commodity
column falls down or is changed in its posture, the following commodity
does not fall down due to the carried-out commodity. Since the
commodity supporting members each exist between the commodities,
clinging of the commodities to each other does not occur. As a result,
the commodities can be reliably carried out one by one. Even the
commodities having no definite shape, which cannot be self-sustained
in a vertical orientation, can be housed in the vertical orientation
by being supported respectively by the commodity supporting members.

Abstract: An apparatus and method provide for singulating thin and substantially porous material layers arranged in a stack. A pick head is positioned above the stack of material layers. An adhesive tape is stabilized against the pick head through use of a vacuum between the adhesive tape and the pick head. Contact is effected between the stabilized adhesive tape and the top material layer. The pick head is moved to move the top material layer from the stack to a predetermined location. While at the predetermined location, the adhesive tape is detached from the top material layer. The singulation apparatus and method are particularly well suited for destacking individual porous fluid transport layers (FTLs) from a magazine of FTLs during automated fuel cell assembly.

Abstract: In a driving condition control system, a sensing unit senses a first physical quantity indicative of a rotation of the first rotatable axle assembly and a second physical quantity indicative of a rotation of the second rotatable axle assembly. A determining unit compares the first and second physical quantities of the rotations of the first and second rotational axle assemblies and determines whether a driving condition of the vehicle is unstable according to the compared result. As a result, the unstable condition of the vehicle can be rapidly detected without detecting a yaw moment of the vehicle.

Abstract: A stator and diffuser assembly is introduced between an
engine cooling fan and engine. The stator acts increase the static efficiency
per unit airflow of the axial fan by reducing the rotational component of air
traveling through the fan and by directing the airflow in an axial direction
towards the engine. The diffuser acts to increase the static efficiency per
unit airflow of the axial fan used by decelerating the airflow, thereby
providing more airflow to the engine at a given fan rotational speed. The
stator and diffuser assembly thus decreases the amount of horsepower
necessary to drive the fan at a given rotational speed and reduces noise.
