Title: A hand-held cleaning appliance
Inventor: HICKMOTT RICHARD MORGAN
IPC: A47L5/24
Filed: 2007-07-06
Granted: 2011-03-24
Abstract: A handheld cleaning appliance includes a dirty air inlet, a clean air outlet and separating apparatus for separating dirt and dust from an airflow in an airflow path leading from the air inlet to the air outlet. The cyclonic separator is arranged in a generally upright orientation. A base surface of the main body and a base surface of the cyclonic separator together form a base surface of the appliance for supporting the appliance on a surface. By providing a base surface of the appliance which is made up of the base surface of the main body and the base surface of the cyclonic separator, the appliance is provided with a substantial base surface on which the appliance can be stably and reliably supported. This is also achieved without substantially increasing the size of the appliance as a whole.

Title: Microelectromechanical sensor and operating method for a microelectromechanical sensor
Inventor: SPAHLINGER GUNTER
IPC: G01C19/56
Filed: 2007-08-08
Granted: 2010-09-30
Abstract: A microelectromechanical sensor and operating method therefor. The sensor has at least one movable electrode. An electrode arrangement is spaced apart from the movable electrode with a plurality of electrodes that can be driven separately and to which corresponding electrode signals can be applied that can be used to electrostatically set/change the application of force, the spring constant and the read-out factor of the movable electrode. An electrode signal generation unit is connected to the electrode arrangement and can be supplied with a force application signal, a spring constant signal and a read-out factor signal, which define the settings/changes to be brought about with regard to the application of force, spring constant and read-out factor of the movable electrode. The electrode signal generation unit generates each electrode signal in a manner dependent on the force application signal, the spring constant signal and the read-out factor signal and matches the electrode signals to one another so that the application of force, the spring constant and the read-out factor of the movable electrode can be set/changed to specific desired values independently of one another.
