Abstract: An electromechanical integrated machine (EIM) according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, an internal rotor coupled to a vehicle wheel and an external rotor coupled to a flywheel. An electrified vehicle according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a first EIM associated with a first wheel, a second EIM associated with a second wheel, a battery having energy to power the first and second wheels, and a flywheel to receive energy from the first and second EIMs during braking. Each EIM includes an internal rotor coupled to the respective first or second wheel and an external rotor coupled to the flywheel.

Abstract: A securement system is provided for use with a storage area of a vehicle having a cover panel adjustably positionable relative to the storage area. The securement system includes a locking portion cooperating with the cover panel including a body having a first end and an opposing second end terminating at a securement member. A receiving portion cooperates with the storage area and includes a housing, a channel extending at least partially through the receiving portion housing to receive and engage the locking portion securement member. The receiving portion channel includes a first passage configured to receive the locking portion securement member and a second passage configured to guide the locking portion body between at least a first position and a second position to receive and secure the securement member.

Abstract: A radio controlled clock together with a fire alarm, a carbon monoxide gas meter, a thermometer, a pollen meter, and a smog level detector. It can even come equipped with a battery life meter so it is self monitoring. The device is capable of keeping records of the parameters it reads and notifying a remote unit (such as by calling a cellular telephone or sending an electronic mail notification that a parameter has reached a certain level. The radio controlling takes the form of the time and date being automatically adjusted by an atomic clock through radio waves when the batteries are installed. Particulate size and flourescence are used to determine the respective concentrations of airborne particulates using a sensor array.
