Abstract: A pedal assembly  (10)  is mounted on a body structure of a motor vehicle and is used
to generate a control signal for vehicle system. The pedal assembly includes a pedal arm  (12) 
having a lower end  (14)  connected to a pedal pad  (16)  and an upper end  (18)  pivotally
supported on a pivot shaft  (22)  to define a pivot axis  (24).  A housing  (20)  supports the pivot
shaft  (22)  such that the pedal arm  (12)  is mounted for movement relative to the housing  (20) 
about the pivot axis  (24).  A non-contact sensor assembly with a magnet member  (26) 
spaced apart from a non-contact sensing surface  (30)  is used to generate the control signal
based on pedal movement. The magnet member  (26)  is pivotally mounted on the shaft  (22) 
for pivotal movement with the pedal arm  (12)  about the pivot axis  (24)  and the non-contact
sensing surface  (30)  extends across an interior face  (28)  of the housing  (20)  to interact with
the magnet member  (26).  Rotational movement of the magnet member  (26)  is converted to
a linear output control signal via the non-contact sensing surface  (30).  A resilient member
 (50)  is mounted within a curved pocket  (54)  of the housing  (20).  A first end  (58)  of the
resilient member  (50)  is fixed to the housing  (20)  and a second end  (62)  is engageable by a
camming portion  (60)  on the upper end  (48)  of the pedal arm  (12)  to create a hysteresis
effect when the pedal arm  (12)  is moved from a rest position to an applied position. A cover
 (64)  is attached to the housing  (20)  to enclose the sensor assembly within the housing  (20) 
to provide a sealed environment for the magnet member  (26)  and the non-contact sensing
surface  (30).

Abstract: A lithographic apparatus has an inner purge compartment 2 surrounding and
moving with a moveable component such as a mask table or a substrate table and an outer
purge compartment 3 surrounding the inner purge compartment. Purge gas is supplied to
the inner compartment and exhausted from the outer compartment so that the inner purge
compartment is at an average pressure higher than ambient and the outer compartment is at
a pressure lower than ambient. Even when acceleration of the moveable object and
compartments cause local pressure variations, the inner compartment is at a higher pressure
than the outer compartment so that any gas flow is outward and contamination is prevented
from reaching the inner compartment

Abstract: The present invention provides a drum-type washing
machine which features suppression of vibrations and
noises during dehydration. To this end, an unbalanced
load occurring around a rotation axis of the drum due
to uneven distribution of laundry is canceled. More
specifically, a plurality of water tanks (20) each having
an opening on the inner periphery thereof are provided
around the rotation axis on the back side of the drum
(3). Where an eccentric load occurring due to the uneven
distribution of the laundry is greater than an allowable
level, a water supply valve (14) is opened to introduce
water into the respective water tanks (20) with the drum
3 kept rotated, and the water is kept retained in the
water tanks by a centrifugal force. Thereafter, the
rotation speed of the drum (3) is temporarily reduced
at a time point according to the position of the eccentric
load to cause the water to fall only from water tanks
(20) located at the same position as the position of the
eccentric load or adjacent the position of the eccentric
load for reduction of the weight of the water retained
therein. The eccentric load occurring due to the uneven
distribution of the laundry is canceled by an eccentric
load generated by the water tanks not fully filled with
the water and the other water tanks fully filled with 
the water, whereby the unbalanced load exerted on the
entire drum (3) can be eliminated.

Abstract: A method for selectively heating cancerous conditions of the breast including invasive ductal carcinoma and invasive glandular lobular carcinoma, and pre-cancerous conditions of the breast including ductal carcinoma in-situ, lobular carcinoma in-situ, and intraductal hyperplasia, as well as benign lesions (any localized pathological change in the breast tissue) such as fibroadenomas and cysts by irradiation of the breast tissue with adaptive phased array focused microwave energy is introduced. Microwave energy provides preferential heating of high-water content breast tissues such as carcinomas, fibroadenomas, and cysts compared to the surrounding lower-water content normal breast tissues. To focus the microwave energy in the breast, the patient's breast can be compressed and a single electric-field probe, inserted in the central portion of the breast, or two noninvasive electric-field probes on opposite sides of the breast skin, can be used to measure a feedback signal to adjust the microwave phase delivered to waveguide applicators on opposite sides of the compressed breast tissue. The initial microwave power delivered to the microwave applicators is set to a desired value that is known to produce a desired increase in temperature in breast tumors. Temperature feedback sensors are used to measure skin temperatures during treatment to adjust the microwave power delivered to the waveguide applicators to avoid overheating the skin. The microwave energy delivered to the waveguide applicators is monitored in real time during treatment, and the treatment is completed when a desired total microwave energy dose has been administered. By heating and destroying the breast lesion sufficiently, lesions can be reduced in size and surrounding normal breast tissues are spared so that surgical mastectomy can be replaced with surgical lumpectomy or the lesions can be completely destroyed so that surgical mastectomy or lumpectomy is avoided.

Abstract: The method and the device relate to a rotor which rotates about a vertical axis and is fitted in a streamlined mill in which the stationary collision surface is constructed as a smooth (cylindrical) collision ring and is arranged an adequate distance away from the rotor and thus makes it possible to allow the material to collide, optionally several times, in an essentially completely deterministic manner, or at an essentially predetermined collision location, at an essentially predetermined collision velocity and at an essentially predetermined collision angle; by which a high probability of breakage-and thus the degree of comminution-is achieved, the energy consumption is reduced, wear is restricted and a crushed product is produced which has a regular grain size distribution, a restricted amount of undersize and oversize and a very good cubic grain configuration, the effect-i.e. the determinism-essentially not being influenced by the wear on the collision element, while the material does not rebound (or at least rebounds to a much lesser extent) against the rotor.
