  • Publication number: 20240147473
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may be configured to receive, from a network entity, a control message indicating a serving cell group including a set of serving cells usable for wireless communications at the UE. The UE may determine whether to monitor for a multi-cell scheduling message for the serving cell group based on activation states of the set of serving cells of the serving cell group, where the multi-cell scheduling message includes scheduling information for multiple serving cells of the set of serving cells. The UE may then monitor at least a portion of control signaling that includes the multi-cell scheduling message in accordance with the determination.

  • Publication number: 20240102522
    Abstract: A brake for a motor includes a fixed-side engaging plate fixed to a motor shaft; a movable-side engaging plate coaxially opposed to the fixed-side engaging plate along the direction of a center axis; and a self-holding type solenoid that moves, in the direction of the center axis, the movable-side engaging plate to a halt cancelation position separated from the fixed-side engaging plate and a halt position where engagement with the fixed-side engaging plate occurs. When the motor is halted, the solenoid is driven to move the movable-side engaging plate from the halt cancelation position to the halt position. The movable-side engaging plate which has reached the halt position is mechanically engaged with the fixed-side engaging plate, and the motor shaft is forcibly halted.

  • Patent number: 10753450
    Abstract: A magnetic type rotation transmitting mechanism has a rotating plate made of a magnetic material, and a magnet to which the rotational movement of the rotating plate is transmitted through a magnetic coupling between the magnet and the rotating plate. When the rotating plate is rotated, a plurality of oblique edge portions formed on the outer peripheral edge of the rotating plate rotate while sequentially passing through a magnet-facing area. The oblique edge portions move in the direction of the rotation centerline of the rotating plate, the rotation centerline being perpendicular to the center axis line of the magnet. The magnet is rotated about the center axis line by a magnetic force occurring between the magnet and the oblique edge portions passing through the magnet-facing area. It is possible to realize a small and compact mechanism for extracting rotation.
