Abstract: Disclosed is an anti-rattle valve feature for a heating, ventilating,
and air conditioning assembly (20, 50, 100). In a typical HVAC assembly (20,
50, 100) each end of an air valve shaft (32, 34, 64, 74, 84, 102) is received in a
pivot hole (40, 42, 66, 76, 86) permitting the air valve shaft (32, 34, 64, 74, 84,
102) to rotate within the assembly (20, 50, 100). Because the inside diameter of
the pivot holes (40, 42, 66, 76, 86) are larger than the outside diameter of the
ends of the air valve shaft (32, 34, 64, 74, 84, 102), the air valve shaft (32, 34,
64, 74, 84, 102) may rattle within the pivot holes (40, 42, 66, 76, 86). Disclosed
is a finger (44, 70, 80, 90, 108) that contacts the air valve shaft (32, 34, 64, 74,
84, 102) to apply pressure to the air valve shaft (32, 34, 64, 74, 84, 102) and
biases an end of the air valve shaft (32, 34, 64, 74, 84, 102) against the inside of
it pivot hole (40, 42, 66, 76, 86), thereby preventing rattling of the air valve
shaft (32, 34, 64, 74, 84, 102) within its respective pivot holes (40, 42, 66, 76,
86).

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a plasma display
panel, and more particularly, to a method of driving a
plasma display panel. According to an embodiment, the method
of driving the plasma display panel includes the step of:
alternately applying a first sustain pulse to scan electrode
lines and sustain electrode lines during a sustain period
with a first period intervened between them; and applying
the last sustain pulse to the scan electrode lines during
the sustain period after a second period longer than the
first period. Accordingly, more particularly, in low
temperature environment, a stabilized address discharge can
be generated in an address period of a subsequent selective
erasing sub-field because a stable sustain discharge is
generated by a last sustain pulse having a long pulse width.
