Abstract: An automated handling line guide rail assembly. The automated handling line guide rail assembly comprises a guide rail that defines the perimeter of a path of a container when conveyed along part of an automated handling line. The path and hence the perimeter are arcuate about a center and positioned at a radius from the center. The guide rail is movable radially to define the perimeter at a plurality of different radii from substantially the same center and the guide rail comprises at least three segments. The first segment is driveable in a substantially radial direction; the second segment is connected to the first segment by a link and the third segment is connected to the second segment by a link such that the second and third segments follow movement of the first segment. The first and second segments and the second and third segments are arranged in superposition to overlap and are provided with a slideable link between overlapping portions to allow relative circumferential movement between the first and second segments and the second and third segments as the segments move radially inwardly and outwardly.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method, a reading device and a system for transmitting data and/or energy between a reading device and a transponder unit. Via a first antenna coil of the reading device generating a first magnetic field data and/or energy are transmitted to the transponder unit. By means of a second antenna coil a second magnetic field with opposite sign is generated. Within a near field or communication range (12) of the reading device the second magnetic field is weaker than the first magnetic field. In a tap-proof range (13), i.e. outside the near field, the two magnetic fields have the same absolute value and cancel each other out due to the opposite signs.

Abstract: A total amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in a breath sample (101) is detected by oxidizing/burning (120) the VOCs to form CO2 and H2O, and the amounts of one or both of these compounds are measured (130). CO2 and H2O molecules in the breath sample (101) are removed (110) before the VOCs are converted (120) to CO2 and H2O. Because one VOC molecule contains multiple carbon and hydrogen atoms, the number of formed CO2 and H2O molecules will be substantially larger than the original number of VOC molecules, thereby improving the sensitivity of the detection.

Abstract: An air induction system for an engine having an improved mechanism for control of an intake door. The system includes a housing having an opening for receiving intake air. A power activated door is pivotable between a closed position wherein the opening is closed and an open position wherein intake air may enter through the opening.

The linkages include first and second bellcranks mounted for pivotal motion, and a link which interconnects the bellcranks. Movement of the cylinder at a first position causes pivoting of the door, while movement at a second position causes substantially no pivoting of the door.
