Publication number: 20240100933Abstract: The present disclosure relates to powertrains for a vehicle. In one embodiment, a driveline for a cargo vehicle is provided comprising a plurality of ground engaging members comprising a front left ground engaging member, a front right ground engaging member, a rear left ground engaging member and a rear right ground engaging member. The driveline also comprises a first motor and a first power source electrically coupled to the first motor. The driveline further comprises a non-driven axle coupled between the rear left ground engaging member and the rear right ground engaging member, a second motor operably coupled to the rear left ground engaging member and a third motor operably coupled to the rear right ground engaging member. Further, a second power source is electrically coupled to each of the second motor and the third motor.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Applicant: Wabash National, L.P.Inventors: Mark Ehrlich, Michael Bodey

Publication number: 20220012461Abstract: A technique for geospatial tracking includes receiving live video from a first source, rendering a map that encompasses a geographical region imaged by the live video, and displaying the map along with the live video, thereby enabling a human user or computer to associate objects in the video with geographical features on the map. The technique further includes receiving geotagged content from a second source and displaying a representation of the geotagged content along with the video and the map.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 9, 2021Publication date: January 13, 2022Inventors: Jonathan Michael Ehrlich, Hillel Steinberg

Patent number: 7939992Abstract: An electrical switch element, particularly a relay, is provided with an actuator with a switch contact and a switch mechanism. The switch mechanism translates a driving movement of the actuator into a switching movement of the switch contact so that the switch contact is brought into and out of contact with a mating contact. In order to create a switching movement with a large lift in the case of an actuator which can only execute a driving movement with small lift, the switch mechanism has two swivelling levers connected to each other via the actuator and at least one contact retainer. The contact retainer connects the two swivelling levers in its longitudinal direction with a lever arm larger than the actuator and is configured so it can be deflected transverse to its longitudinal direction.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2007Date of Patent: May 10, 2011Assignee: Tyco Electronics AMP GmbHInventor: Heinz-Michael Ehrlich

Publication number: 20040067172Abstract: The present invention is directed to air freshener devices with child resistant features. The air freshener devices comprise (a) a housing having a socket portion; (b) a container for holding a liquid to be evaporated by heat, the container having a body for storing the liquid and a neck connected to the body, the neck engaging the socket portion of the housing thereby supporting the container on the housing, the neck having a passage therethrough; (c) a retaining ring fixed in the passage of the neck of the container; (d) a wick having an upper portion extending through the retaining ring and a lower portion extending into the body of the container, the lower portion of the wick absorbing the liquid from the container and moving the liquid from the lower portion into the upper portion of the wick by capillary action; and (e) heating means in the housing for heating the upper portion of the wick above the neck of the body to evaporate the liquid from the wick.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 7, 2002Publication date: April 8, 2004Applicant: Homescents Inc.Inventors: Michael Ehrlich, Tina Jenuleson

Publication number: 20020110275Abstract: In a telepresence system, a scene is captured by recording pixel data elements, each associated with a pixel ray vector having a direction and an intercept on an known locus in the frame of reference of the scene. Each pixel data element includes data representing the illumination along the pixel ray vector. For example, the pixel data elements may be captured by operating numerous video cameras pointing in different directions on a spherical locus. A virtual viewpoint image representing the image which would be seen from an arbitrary viewpoint, looking in an arbitrary direction, can be synthesized by determining the directions of synthetic pixel ray vectors from each pixel of the virtual viewpoint image through the virtual viewpoint and the intercepts of these vectors on the locus. Recorded pixel data elements having pixel ray vector directions and intercepts close to those of the synthetic pixel ray vector can be copied or interpolated to provide data representing illumination in the synthetic pixel.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 5, 2002Publication date: August 15, 2002Inventors: Peter Rogina, Michael Ehrlich, David Macintosh
