Abstract: The present finding concerns a safety device for automatically checking the weight present on one or more lifting groups of an elevator, of a platform, of a lift or of other similar apparatuses. Such a device is of the type in which the mobile platform or the cabin (1), able to slide on the column (2), consists of a board (3) on which the load rests and a motorisation group (4), formed from a welded structure (5), which supports the motor group, consisting of a geared motor (6) or another work device, which takes care of moving the aforementioned platform on the aforementioned column. Such a safety device is characterised in that it foresees that the two components of the platform (1), i.e. the board (3) on which the load is rested and the motorisation group (4) consist of two distinct and separate work groups, between which an intermediate element (8) is inserted that, as well as acting as connection means between the aforementioned groups, to allow the entire platform to be moved vertically, also detects the weight value of the material loaded onto the board.

Abstract: A method of aspirating a liquid, includes: providing an aspirating probe which comprises a probe tip and a piston pump, wherein the probe tip and piston pump are in fluid communication; measuring an initial gas pressure in the tip of the aspirating probe prior to the liquid entering the liquid to be aspirated; moving the tip into the liquid, whereby a volume of gas is located between the top of the liquid and the piston of the piston pump; moving the piston of the piston pump a predetermined distance which corresponds to a selected volume of liquid to be aspirated; measuring the gas pressure in the volume of gas when the piston stops moving and the column of liquid pulled into the tip has equilibrated; determining the piston volume created by the movement of the piston; and determining the volume of liquid aspirated by the following formula:     V  liquid aspirated   =   V  piston volume        P  initial      P  final      Volume  /  unit pressure   ,     
wherein 
P initial  is initial gas pressure before the liquid enters the tip, 
P final  is final pressure of the volume of gas after the column of liquid has equilibrated, and

Abstract: A horological motor of the Lavet motor concept is used to form an actuator to control movement of a lens system to reduce power consumption in digital camera units used in various electronic equipment, e.g. PDA's, mobile phones, digital still cameras and camcorders, and as a result increase battery life. The coils of the horological motor are driven with CMOS I/O signals eliminating the need for high current motor drivers and allowing the integration of all picture capture functions, including the light sensitive pixel array, into a single chip to form a system on chip implementation. A plurality of actuators is used to control a lens system comprising auto focus, zoom and shutter and iris functions. A gear transmission system is used to allow the motor of the actuator to move in micro step, which allows calibration of the motor against mechanical barriers.

Abstract: A control device for controlling a shower waste pump, includes a housing, a pump setting, and an over-run setting. The pump setting, by way of a control element, preferably a manually adjustable potentiometer, allows selective setting of a maximum pumping capacity of the waste pump. The over-run setting, also by way of a control element, allows selective setting of an over-run period from a predetermined range during which the waste pump continues to operate after fluid flow through the waste pump has ceased or substantially ceased. The over-run setting and the pump setting together optimize operation of the waste pump, so that the over-run period of the waste pump can be set based on the selected maximum pumping capacity.

Abstract: This internal combustion engine includes a plurality of cylinders, an air intake line, and an exhaust line. The internal combustion engine also includes a turbocharging system having at least one compressor stage and intake air cooling arrangement having at least one charge air cooler located upstream from the intake manifold. The internal combustion engine further includes an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) line rerouting a portion of the engine's exhaust gas into the air intake line at a point located upstream from the at least one charge air cooler. This engine therefore uses an heat exchanger to cool the EGR gas. Thus, EGR gas mixed with intake air flows through at least one change air cooler before entering the engine cylinders. The efficiency of this cooler—generally of the air/water type—makes it possible to significantly decrease the EGR gas temperature before it enters the cylinders. Less cooling power from the engine cooling system is required to cool down the EGR gas as fresh intake air is used as a cooling medium in the heat exchanger.
