Title: Power switch for preventing accidental arcs
Inventor: DAHL SAMUEL
IPC: H02H1/00
Filed: 2008-05-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a power switch configured for the purposes of preventing accidental arcs in a low-voltage switchgear. The invention provides the power switch with an overcurrent evaluation means responding to an accidental arc produced in the switchgear. An overcurrent signal 104 arriving from the arc monitoring system LBS (occurrence of the flash of an accidental arc) is linked to the signal 103 for triggering the control means via a first evaluation means S1, 182, 63 for evaluating the intensity of the overcurrent originating from the accidental arc. The means 70 for triggering the power switch is activated, on issuing of a turn-off pulse 200, merely if the signal 180 from the current detection means 80 is above a preadjustable threshold S1. The invention allows the power switch to cut off more rapidly an overcurrent based on an accidental arc.

Title: Lawn spreader hopper flow control apparatus
Inventor: CONNER LEE ROBERT
IPC: A01C15/02
Filed: 2010-02-19
Abstract: A control mechanism for a lawn spreader controls output flow of granular material out of the spreader hopper by adjusting the position of a control cable anchor point. The control mechanism includes a clamping portion for clamping to a tubular handle of the spreader. A top surface of the clamp portion, adjacent to the handle, provides a slide for a slideable cable anchor shuttle, which internally provides the anchor point for a control cable. The shuttle may be made from a plastic material. A dial housed within a dial housing, adjacent to the slide portion of the clamp, may be rotated to various indicated positions which in turn controls the position of the shuttle on the metal slide portion of the clamp, thereby adjusting the position of the control cable anchor point. The control cable extends from the end of the shuttle anchor mechanism to a hopper spring-loaded aperture cover.
