  • Publication number: 20240093541
    Abstract: A device for identifying a position of a grip member of a vehicle handle includes a cam rotatably movable inside the device around an axis fixed relative to the grip member. The cam is rotatably secured to a lever, which is rotatably movable around the axis, so that an angular position of the cam around the axis is directly related to an angular position of the lever around the axis. The angular position of the lever is also mechanically related to the position of the grip member. The device includes at least one switch secured to the handle and complementary to a member of the cam, so that the at least one switch is configured to be in electrical contact with the member of the cam when the angular position of the cam is equal to one or more predetermined angular positions around the axis.

  • Patent number: 11921358
    Abstract: A bistable hinge element for an eyeglasses frame, which includes a temple cage having a bottom extended laterally by two longitudinal side walls which define a housing that opens onto the proximal transverse face through an opening that is U-shaped in cross-section. The hinge element further includes a front cage which has a bottom extended laterally by two longitudinal side walls which define a housing that opens onto the proximal transverse face through an opening that is U-shaped in cross-section, and a solid body that is elastically deformable along the longitudinal axis, and which has a central portion, with a cross-section corresponding to the transverse cross-section of the U-shaped openings, which is extended at each end by a bulge of a cross-section that is complementary to the transverse cross-section of the housings of the temple and front cages.

  • Patent number: 10362895
    Abstract: Provided is a milk-based drink production device designed to work with a steam output nozzle tip of a coffee maker, where the device contains a steam input conduit. The device contains a connection system to the steam output nozzle tip which includes at least one mobile jaw that shifts between a connected position, in which a watertight connection is formed between the steam output nozzle tip and the steam input conduit and in which the device cannot be separated from the steam output nozzle tip, and a disconnected position in which the device may be separated from the steam output nozzle tip.

  • Patent number: 10178926
    Abstract: Provided is a milk-based drink production device with a connection system designed to work with a steam output nozzle tip of a coffee maker, where said connection system has a connected position, in which a watertight connection is formed between the steam output nozzle tip and the device, and a disconnected position, in which the device may be separated from the steam output nozzle tip, and the device contains a frothing system which shifts between an installed position on the device and a position removed from the device. The device contains extraction safety mechanisms which prevent the frothing system from moving from the installed position to the removed position when the connection system is in the connected position and/or connection safety mechanisms which prevent the connection system from moving from the disconnected position to the connected position when the frothing system is not in the installed position.

  • Patent number: 4646108
    Abstract: The invention relates to a printing method and to a magnetic printing machine, which makes it possible to obtain images in at least two colors on a printing medium. A magnetic recording device (13) is arranged such that when it is excited by pulses it forms magnetized points on the drum (10). The points comprising elementary magnetic domains having magnetizations in different directions. The machine further includes developer applicators (40, 42), retouching devices (41, 43) and a transfer post (45), where the developers deposited onto the drum (10) are transferred onto a strip of paper (20).
