Title: Silane coating material and a process to produce silane coating
Inventor: THURN CAROLIN
IPC: C09D183/04
Filed: 2007-09-10
Abstract: The invention relates to a silane coating material and to a method for the production of a silane coating. In order to create a silane coating material according to the generic term, in which the disadvantages stated above can be avoided, a method for the production of a silane coating according to the invention is proposed, wherein one or more silanes that are not, or are only slightly, pre-condensed, are added to a reaction partner and the resulting coating material is applied to a substrate and cured. Surprisingly it has been found that by means of the reaction of higher molecular and possibly slightly pre-cross-linked silanes and a suitable reaction partner a new class of coating materials can be created. According to prior art, silanes are processed via sol-gel processes, starting with pre-condensed species. The procedural method according to the invention is advantageous insofar as no restrictions exist with regard to the working life, and additionally improved properties of the coating material are achieved, particularly high scratch resistance.

Abstract: An occupancy sensor is provided with a separable override unit which can selectively override the operation of the occupancy sensor at designated times and for selected time intervals. The occupancy sensor includes a light sensor for actuating the occupancy sensor and a light assembly when the ambient light is below a predetermined level and to deactivate the occupancy sensor when the ambient light is above a threshold level to prevent the light assembly from being actuated when the light level is sufficient to avoid the need for actuating the light assembly. The override unit is removably attached to the occupancy sensor and is provided with a light source, such as an LED. The override unit is coupled to the occupancy sensor to emit light to actuate the light sensor of the occupancy sensor, thereby controlling the operation of the occupancy sensor, such as by preventing the occupancy sensor from being actuated regardless of the light level in the surrounding areas. The occupancy sensor includes a cavity on a top surface for receiving the override unit. The light sensor of the occupancy sensor is positioned in the cavity. The LED on the override unit is on an end that is inserted into the cavity to align with the light sensor.
