IPC: H05B39/08
Filed: 2014-06-05
Abstract: Apparatuses for controlling light modules (5) comprise first circuits (1) for detecting first control information transported via first signals and second circuits (2) for converting first control information into second control information. The second control information is transported via second signals. The first and second control information define light settings of the light modules (5) and have different representations. The first control information may be phase-cut information or first data. The second control information may be a parameter of the second signal or second data. The apparatus may further comprise a third circuit (3) for converting power from the first signals into third signals destined for power inputs (51) of the light modules (5). The second signals may be destined for control inputs (52) of the light modules (5). This way, a control of a light module (5) has been separated from powering the light module (5). Many more control options have become possible.

Abstract: A transmission clutch module includes an inner race, an outer race, and a plurality of race engaging pawls adapted to selectively secure the races together in either a locked position or an unlocked position. The clutch module includes 5 an actuator cam configured to be moved between two angularly spaced positions to control the pawls. The inner race is comprised of two axially spaced inner race plates axially secured together by rivets for retaining, and accommodating angular limited movements of, the pawls. The pawls are circumferentially disposed about the inner race plates, and are radially outwardly biased by springs 10 to engage the outer race, unless blocked by the actuator cam. The pawls are weighted at one end, so that at a threshold speed of the inner race, they can overcome spring resistance to disengage from both the actuator cam and the outer race.

Abstract: Quick tasks for on-screen keyboards are described in which an on-screen keyboard supports a plurality of quick tasks configured to edit selected text in defined ways. Quick task functions may be assigned to keys of the on-screen keyboard in addition to the default actions or "normal" character entry functions of the keys. During text input, the keys operate normally to perform a function related to character entry, such as to cause input of corresponding text character. When text is selected or in other designated interaction scenarios, operation of a key associated with a quick task may automatically trigger the quick task to modify selected text in a corresponding way. Thus, the same key of an on¬ screen keyboard may be employed to initiate a function related to character entry or apply of a quick task to text depending upon the interaction scenario.
