摘要:
A drive axle assembly for an all-wheel drive vehicle includes an adaptively controlled first hydraulic coupling for providing front-to-rear torque transfer control to a first wheel and an adaptively controlled second hydraulic coupling for providing front-to-rear torque control to a second wheel. The drive axle assembly is contained with a common housing and communicates with a traction control system to actively control actuation of the first and second hydraulic couplings based on the operating characteristics of the vehicle as detected by suitable sensors.

A package having two or more compartments that is made from a laminated flexible film is disclosed. The compartments store products having different requirements for in relation to contact of oxygen and other gases from outside the compartments or release of oxygen and other gases generated by the products in the compartments. The laminated film has different OTR or GTR levels in different sections of the film to suit the different requirements for oxygen and other gases of the products in the compartments. A method of manufacturing the package is also disclosed.
摘要:
A method of enabling a wireless information device to access data from several data services providers in which the method comprises the step of the device using an extensible framework which handles data passing to and from several applications resident on the device, the framework being shared by each of the applications resident on the device and also being shared by each of the data services providers.
摘要:
The liquid concentrator has a vacuum vessel or chamber (1) in which a required vacuum is established. Within the common vessel or chamber (1) are provided concentrator components including a feed section (2), an evaporation plus condensing/section (3), a separation area (4), a baffle arrangement (5) and a vapour compressor (6). A seal (8) may be provided for the connection between the compressor (6) and a motor (7) mounted externally of the vessel or chamber (1). In another embodiment the motor (7) may also be mounted within the vessel or chamber (1). The invention avoids the cost and complexity of providing separate vacuum seals for each of the concentrator components.
摘要:
A method of providing data to a wireless information device, in which data supplied from a remote service provider is represented by an icon which is (a) automatically displayed within an application running on the device, and which (b) changes if the data alters, in order to alert the user to new data or to represent that new data. For example, a weather icon could be displayed in a calendar application if the device is being supplied or can access weather data. The weather icon changes dynamically to represent the weather on the particular day in the calendar; perhaps tomorrow's predicated weather
摘要:
A shift fork/gate assembly is provided for use in a manual transmission of the type including a gear train having a plurality of gears disposed thereon and a shift control assembly for selecting one of the plurality of gears. The shift fork/gate assembly includes a shift fork member engaging a synchronizer device along the gear train. A gate member is connected to the fork member by inserting a portion of the gate member into an aperture formed in the fork member. The gate member selectively cooperates with a blocker of the shift control assembly to selectively prevent movement of the shift fork member until the shift control assembly is properly aligned.
