Abstract: Described herein is a glass article comprising a glass substrate having a major surface and an opaque layer disposed on the major surface. The opaque layer comprises a photocurable ink that comprises at least 10 wt % of a pigment. The opaque layer comprises a thickness of less than or equal to 25 ?m and an optical density of greater than or equal to 4.0. After curing via exposure to curing light from an ultraviolet light (“UV”) light emitting diode (“LED”), the opaque layer exhibits: (a) a pencil hardness of greater than or equal to 3H when measured according to ASTM 3363, and (b) an adhesion to the glass substrate of greater than or equal to 4B after being subjected to a temperature of 85° C. at 95% relative humidity for a period of at least 500 hours, when tested according to ASTM 3359.

Abstract: An ultraviolet ink composition includes from 25 wt % to 50 wt % of a pigment dispersion, from greater than 0 wt % to 10 wt % of a photoinitiator package; from 10 wt % to 42 wt % of a reactive diluent; from 10 wt % to 20 wt % of a multifunctional monomer; and from 0 wt % to 25 wt % of a difunctional monomer. An ink primer includes from 2 wt % to 10 wt % of an adhesion promoter configured to bond to glass and from 90 wt % to 98 wt % of a solvent configured to promote bonding of the adhesion promoter to the glass. Another ink primer includes from 2 wt % to 10 wt % of an adhesion promoter configured to bond to glass, from greater than 0 wt % to 10 wt % of a photoinitiator package; and from 30 wt % to 45 wt % of a monofunctional monomer.

Abstract: A vehicle for use in collective zone lighting includes a wireless transceiver and a controller. The controller is configured to create a group of vehicles using wireless messaging, via the wireless transceiver, between the vehicle and one or more other vehicles, and instruct the group of vehicles to collectively light an area using exterior lights of a plurality of the group of vehicles.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture for trailers with adjustable batteries are disclosed herein. An example trailer disclosed herein includes a platform, a battery disposed at a first location relative to the platform, a drive to move the battery relative to the platform, and a controller to determine a first load distribution on the platform and in response to determining the first load distribution on the platform does not satisfy a first threshold, adjust a position of the battery, via the drive, to a second location relative to the platform.

Abstract: A respiratory mask system includes a mask interface and a headgear assembly. The headgear assembly is adjustable and comprised of an elastic portion, a non-elastic portion and a restriction mechanism configured to provide a force resisting movement of the non-elastic portion when the elastic portion is extended. There is a support beam coupled to the non-elastic portion and extending along a portion of the headgear that is curved along its longitudinal extent. In this way particular seal modules can be comfortably fitted to a user and any blow off force is mitigated. A particular example of the respiratory mask system includes provision for removable attachment between the seal and a mask frame, the mask frame and a yoke of the headgear; and between a conduit and the mask frame.

Abstract: A vehicle cargo storage system configured to be located in a floor of a vehicle is provided. The vehicle cargo storage system includes a chamber configured to extend into and below the floor of the vehicle, and a cargo holding structure configured to hold one or more cargo items and configured to move between a stowed position within the chamber and a deployed position outside the chamber. The vehicle cargo system also including a cover to a pivot mechanism to pivot the cover between a first closed position covering the one or more cargo items in the chamber and a second position to expose the one or more cargo items outside the chamber, and a locking mechanism configured to be actuated to lock the cover in the first closed position.

Abstract: A vehicle lighting system is disclosed. The vehicle lighting system may include a display unit configured to operate in a plurality of display modes. The display unit may be mounted on a vehicle rear top portion. The vehicle lighting system may further include a processor that may be configured to obtain trigger event information associated with the display unit. Based on the trigger event information, the processor may select a display mode from the plurality of display modes, and may activate the display unit responsive to the selection.

Abstract: An assembly includes a roof of a vehicle, and a light assembly that emits light outward from a passenger side, a driver side, and a forward side of the vehicle. The light assembly is vertically beneath the roof. A method includes providing a light assembly that extends along a passenger side, along a driver side, and along a forward side of a vehicle. The light assembly is between a roof of the vehicle and side doors of the vehicle. The method further includes selectively activating the light assembly to emit light outward from the vehicle.

Abstract: The invention is a Clamp system that is able to rotate and swivel on a base allowing it to self-align itself to the part being secured. When the clamp is tightened to the part it is securing, the base, clamp and part all become rigid and unable to swivel or rotate.

Abstract: Vehicle exterior lighting systems may be equipped with fascia mounted lamp assemblies. The proposed systems are capable of controlling a fascia lamp assembly to reveal the lamp assembly within the vehicle fascia and then produce various lighting effects based on sensed vehicle conditions. Exemplary fascia lamp assemblies may include a conductive lens that can be charged in order to reveal the lamp assembly within the vehicle fascia.
