Abstract: A method for verifying the authenticity of content created by one host for verification and portability to other hosts includes the steps of creating a data set containing data objects, establishing an authentication code system, authorizing the first host to modify the data set; establishing a valid authentication code for the first host in accordance with the authentication code system, modifying the data set by the first host, signing the data set using the authentication code for the first host, transferring the data set to a second host, determining whether the data set was modified by a host having authority to modify the data set by verifying the authentication code used to sign the data set, and then allowing transfer to and use of the modified data set by the second host so long as the data set was modified by a host having a valid authentication code.
Abstract: A positioning system is provided for moving a seat back in a vehicle between a seating position and a cargo storage position. The positioning system includes a release mechanism actuatable between a first position to permit movement of the seat back and a second position to prevent movement of the seat back. A first actuator is provided on the seat back near an upper corner of the seat back and a second actuator is provided on the seat back near a lower corner of the seat back, so that the seat back can be moved from the cargo storage position to the seating position by a person actuating the first actuator from a location alongside the vehicle and by a person actuating the second actuator from a location behind the vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle seat includes a seat part having a seat substructure. The seat part is displaceable along a transverse axis with respect to the seat substructure and the seat part is at least partially swivelably about the transverse axis. The seat includes a displacement element having a displacement length, a fixed lower part and an upper part. A first longitudinal movement of the seat part and a first transverse movement of the seat part occurs along a first section of the adjustment length. A second longitudinal movement of the seat part and a second transverse movement of the seat part occurs along a second section of the adjustment length. The ratio of the first longitudinal movement to the first transverse movement differs from the ratio of the second longitudinal movement to the second transverse movement.

Abstract: This invention relates to a filling apparatus (2) and a process for intermittently receiving and discharging specific quantities of bulk product, in particular for delivering specific quantities of bulk product from a weighing machine to a packaging machine. The filling apparatus (2) comprises two partial vessels (8, 10), with each partial vessel (8, 10) comprising a feed opening (20, 22) and an outlet opening (26, 28). Furthermore, an outlet element (30) is provided which is movable at least into a first and into a second position. In the first position, the outlet element (30) closes the outlet opening (26) of a first partial vessel (8) and releases the outlet opening (28) of the second partial vessel (10). In the second position, the outlet element (30) closes the outlet opening (28) of the second partial vessel (10) and releases the outlet opening (26) of the first partial vessel (8).
Abstract: A memory device for blocking a component configured to move between an adjusting position and a functional position is provided. The memory device includes a housing configured to be coupled to the component, a blocking element pivotally coupled to the housing and a variable transmission mechanism coupled to the housing. The variable transmission mechanism is configured to transfer the movement of the component to the blocking element as a variable transmission when the component is moved from the adjusting position toward the functional position. According to one exemplary embodiment, the component is an adjustable easy entry vehicle seat.
Abstract: A track system for a seat is disclosed. The track system comprises a first track including a plurality of apertures; a second track configured to move relative to the first track and including a plurality of apertures; and a latch assembly coupled to the first track. The latch assembly comprises a base, a first pin, and a second pin. The base comprises a first slot and a second slot. The first pin is moveable in the first slot between a first position, in which the first pin engages the second track and cants in a first direction, and a second position, in which the first pin disengages the second track. The second pin is moveable in the second slot between a first position, in which the second pin engages the second track and cants in a second direction, and a second position, in which the second pin disengages the second track.
Abstract: A mini-type electric vehicle, which is mainly used for individual transportation and includes a frame, a seat, front and rear wheels, a driving device, a battery, a steering system and a front wheel suspension device. A casing in which the battery is placed is provided forward in the middle position of the front end of the frame. The suspension device for front wheels has a front convex shape and a rear concave shape and covers the front end of the casing, and pivots to the middle of the front end of the casing. Two front wheels are installed on the front wheel suspension device. The rear edge line of the two front wheels is located at the rear of the battery front edge. The steering system is connected to the front end of the frame and interlocks with the front wheels. The battery is installed at the front so as to balance the weight distribution, improve the driving safety, comfort and steering performance for electric vehicle.
Abstract: An adjusting device for a vehicle seat has a sheet metal structure with at least one recess which can be brought into interlocking engagement with a locking element. According to the disclosure, it is provided that the recess is provided with an at least partially encircling bead.
