Abstract: A teat cup (1) constructed to apply treatment and cleaning fluid to cows teats, post-milking, comprises a nozzle (13) in the head portion (6) of the flexible liner (3) of the teat cup for delivering fluid internally of the teat cup. A delivery tube (14) for supplying fluid to the nozzle (13) is integrated with the teat cup. The nozzle is directed so as to discharge fluid towards the milk discharge end (4) of the teat cup. When milking is terminated, treatment fluid is injected through the nozzle (13) into the head portion of the liner (3) just prior to and/or as the teat cup is being withdrawn from the teat and, as a result, the teat cup wipes the injected fluid down the teat so as substantially to coat the teat with the treatment fluid. When the teat cup (1) falls into an inverted rest position, after take-off, the interior of the liner (3) may be flushed and dried with disinfectant, water and compressed air discharged upwardly into the liner by the nozzle (13). Flushing fluid can then drain downwardly from the liner and through its mouth (7).

Abstract: The invention relates to an airborne-sound absorbing component, in particular for motor vehicles, comprising a resonance absorber ( 1 ) with a plurality of differently sized hollow chambers ( 2 ) spaced apart from each other, and comprising a porous sound-absorbing layer ( 8 ) made of an air-permeable material, which layer faces the incoming sound, wherein in each instance the hollow chambers comprise a wall section ( 5 ) which faces the incoming sound. The wall sections ( 5 ), which face the incoming sound and which are able to oscillate, are closed off so as to be airtight, wherein the resonance absorber ( 1 ) comprises one or several spacers ( 10 ) such that at least the majority of the wall sections ( 5 ) of the hollow chambers ( 2 ), which wall sections face the incoming sound, do not establish contact with the porous layer ( 8 ) and are able to oscillate independently of said porous layer ( 8 ). As a result of these features improved sound absorption capability across a broad frequency range is achieved.

Granted: 2011-05-04
Abstract: L'invention concerne un châssis et une suspension assurant l'inclinaison et l'alignement automatiques d'un véhicule. L'inclinaison est déterminée par des capteurs de force, la vitesse et/ou l'angle de braquage, et est produite par des actionneurs placés dans la suspension en fonction d'un protocole prédéterminé dans une unité de commande électronique (ECU). Ledit protocole assure également l'absorption des chocs au moyen d'un repérage rapide du contour d'une surface sur laquelle le véhicule se déplace. La suspension est assurée par une pluralité d'ensembles bras, chacun d'eux comprenant un bras inférieur, un bras de commande supérieur et un actionneur connecté de manière mobile au bras inférieur et au bras de commande supérieur. Les ensembles bras sont connectés de manière pivotante au châssis sur un axe commun. Ils forment généralement des parallélogrammes et sont actionnés de concert afin de rester globalement parallèles les uns aux autres sur une plage angulaire afin de régler l'inclinaison du véhicule. Ils sont également actionnés indépendamment les uns des autres afin de s'adapter aux variations du contour. Selon un aspect, un actionneur commandé par une ECU peut être remplacé par un actionneur mécanique pouvant être activé mécaniquement tel que par le propre poids incliné du conducteur.

Abstract: Power switching apparatus comprising switch means having a control terminal and output terminals for connection in series between a power supply and a load. The switch means is responsive to a control signal applied to the control terminal to switch between an ON-state in which it supplies power supply current from the power supply through the output terminals to the load and an OFF-state in which it interrupts the supply of power through the output terminals to the load. The apparatus includes detection means for detecting an open-load condition of the load at least during the ON-state of the switch means, comprising detection control means operable in the ON-state of the switch means for modifying the control signal so as to start switching the switch means to the OFF-state during a lapse of time substantially less than the time required for the switch means to reach the OFF-state and for restoring the control signal to a value corresponding to the ON-state at or before the end of the lapse of time, and comparator means responsive to variation of voltage at the output terminals during the lapse of time. The duration of the variation of voltage during the open-load detection is too short and its magnitude too small for the variation of load current to be perceptible, notably in the case where the load is a lamp.
