Abstract: L'invention concerne des combineurs de lumière et des séparateurs de lumière, et des procédés d'utilisation de combineurs de lumière et de séparateurs de lumière. En particulier, l'invention concerne des combineurs et séparateurs de lumière qui combinent et partagent, respectivement, la lumière de différents spectres de longueur d'onde en utilisant des séparateurs de faisceau polarisant. Les combineurs de lumière comprennent des dispositions de quatre séparateurs de faisceau polarisant, de telle sorte que trois spectres de longueur d'onde différents de lumière peuvent être dirigés dans trois des séparateurs de faisceau polarisant, et une lumière combinée peut être reçue à partir du quatrième séparateur de faisceau polarisant. Les séparateurs de lumière peuvent avoir la même configuration que les combineurs de lumière, mais la direction du chemin de lumière est inversée pour séparer, plutôt que combiner, la lumière. De la lumière polychromatique peut être dirigée dans l'un des séparateurs de faisceau polarisant, et de la lumière ayant trois spectres de longueur d'onde différents peut être reçue depuis les trois autres séparateurs de faisceau polarisant. Les trois spectres de longueur d'onde différents de lumière, la lumière combinée et la lumière polychromatique peuvent être de la lumière non polarisée. Les combineurs de lumière peuvent être utiles en tant que sources de lumière blanche non polarisée, telles que dans des systèmes de projection d'affichage à micro-miroir numériques.

Abstract: A vehicle door lock device is provided. The vehicle door lock device includes a latch mechanism, an inside lever, an inside open lever, a bushing, a child protector lever, and an intermediate lever. The inside lever is operable from a passenger compartment side of a vehicle and supported pivotally about a support pin arranged in the vehicle door. The intermediate lever includes a guide hole, which receives the support pin. When pushed by the child protector lever as the child protector lever pivots, the intermediate lever pushes the bushing while moving along the guide hole relative to the support pin and thereby moves the bushing to a position between the unset position and the set position.

Abstract: Summary 
     
     The invention describes the system and operation for sampling fine dust from air as well as exhaust gas streams with a humidity between 5 and 100%. 
The invention is also in respect on the sampling of dust particles with a convergent and divergent tube to accelerate and rotate a gaseous medium. Though this temperature declines and condensation of the moisture start. Under these conditions the diameter of the particles increases together with the rotation the dust is in a pendulum movement against the wall and separates from the gas stream. The gas stream is directed via one or more concentric tubes from the system. The separated particles are collected from the wall in a continuous flow for further analysis. The system only operates well with sufficient pressure drop. 
In order to operate the system properly the ratio between inlet and outlet pressure must be 0,6. The walls must be smooth and properly designed. 
With small systems it is necessary to thermally insulate the system.
