摘要:
A control system for a vehicle powered by a fuel cell includes a voltage conversion device that communicates with the fuel cell through a voltage bus and a propulsion system that is selectively powered by the fuel cell through the voltage bus and that selectively generates a ripple current in the voltage bus. The voltage conversion device is regulated to selectively generate a counter-ripple current that reduces the ripple current.

Methods and apparatus for controlling flare in roll-forming processes are disclosed. An example system includes a component position detector configured to detect a component. The example system also includes a comparator configured to compare a flare tolerance value and a flare measurement value of the component and a storage interface configured to retrieve a roller position value from a memory based on the comparison. In addition, the example system includes a flange roller adjuster communicatively coupled to the storage interface and the component position detector and configured to obtain the roller position value from the storage interface and change a position of a roller based on the roller position value to condition the component.

A wireless communication (120) device for placing calls within a wireless communication system (100) on a plurality of channels is provided. The wireless communication unit (120) includes a transceiver (204) for transmitting and receiving radio frequency (RF) signals on the plurality of channels, a signal detector (220), a network scanner (222) and a controller (206). The signal detector (220) detects whether a call on one of the plurality of channels has been dropped (304). The network scanner (222) controls which of the plurality of channels the transceiver receives signals on and which of the plurality of channels the transceiver transmits signals on. The controller (206) automatically increases a scan rate (308) of the network scanner (222) in response to the signal detector (220) determining that the call has been dropped (304).

A stretchable string (100) having a first cross sectional diameter at rest and a second smaller cross sectional diameter when stretched. An aglet (200) positioned on the string. The aglet has an inner cross sectional diameter that is smaller than the cross sectional diameter of the string at rest and approximate to the cross sectional diameter of the string when it is sufficiently elongated. The aglet is moved along the string when the string is sufficiently elongated. The aglet can be repositioned along the string by stretching the string such that the diameter of the string is approximate to the inner diameter of the aglet. Excess string can then be removed.

A roll-forming machine is provided with a base structure, a plurality of first roll-forming stations that form a first component having a Z-shaped cross section, and a plurality of second roll-forming stations that form a second component having a C-shaped cross section. At least one of the roll-forming stations has a pair of rotatable arbors adapted to support a plurality of forming rolls and a pair of support structures adapted to support a plurality of bearing assemblies. The roll-forming station also includes a pair of adjustment mechanisms that allow the position of some of the bearing assemblies to be adjusted and a pair of compression assemblies that exert a force upon some of the bearing assemblies when the bearing assemblies are moved away from an initial position.

A portable air filter system having a manually operable spray pump for scenting the air flowing therethrough. The system includes an enclosure having an air inlet and an air outlet, a motor/fan assembly for moving air through the air inlet and out the air outlet, a plurality of air filters disposed between the air inlet and the air outlet, and a manually operable pump in fluid communication with a liquid scented material for scenting the air disposed between the air filters and the air outlet. A brush is attached to a pair of side walls of a wide portion of the enclosure and spans the air inlet. In use the brush aids in dislodging dust and lint from fabric materials.

A toilet flush handle cover or guard is attachable to the bottom of a toilet seat and provides cover for the flush handle of a conventional toilet when the seat is raised to an upright position. The cover is formed to require a male user of the toilet to lower the seat to access the flush handle and flush the toilet after use, thereby providing considerate positioning of the seat of the toilet in the lowered position for subsequent female users. The flush handle cover may be formed in various configurations in order to provide proper coverage for various flush handles as desired, or alternatively may be formed as a single, integral unit with the toilet seat to extend therefrom. The present handle cover is adapted to remain clear of the upper surface of the seat and of any portion of the lid or tank, thus insuring comfort for a user of the toilet. The handle cover may be formed of a variety of materials, such as relatively thin sheet metal bent or formed to the proper shape, but is preferably formed of plastic and/or of the same materials as the accompanying toilet seat.
