Abstract: There is described a filter assembly (2) comprising a filter housing (15) and a removable filter cartridge (16) arranged and/or arrangeable within the filter housing (15). The filter assembly (2) comprises an expelling device configured to exert an expelling force onto the filter cartridge (16) when being arranged within the filter housing (15) for at least partially directing the filter cartridge (16) out of the filter housing (15) and a control device controllable into a locking configuration for blocking the filter cartridge (16) within the filter housing (15) and/or for counter-acting against the expelling force and an unlocking configuration for allowing the expelling force to at least partially expel the filter cartridge (16) from the filter housing (15). The control device comprises at least a first interaction element (20) and a second interaction element (21) interacting and/or being configured to interact with one another with the control device being controlled into the locking configuration.

Abstract: A refrigerator including a controller for controlling a cooling system of the refrigerator. The controller configured to have at least two modes, wherein in a first mode the controller controls the cooling system to achieve a desired temperature within a fresh food compartment without respect to a temperature in a temperature-controlled drawer, and in a second mode the controller controls the cooling system to achieve a desired temperature within the temperature-controlled drawer without respect to the temperature in the fresh food compartment.

Abstract: An actuation device for movement of a barrier comprising a gear motor adapted to transmit a rotary motion to a tubular support, integrally connected to said barrier and rotating with respect to a fixed support. The actuation device comprises actuation means manually operable by a user and reversibly movable between a position decoupled from, and a position coupled with, a microswitch to start/stop a detection procedure of an end-of-travel position for said gear motor.

Abstract: A device for interrupting selectively a rotary translational movement, includes a threaded elongated element and an element having a female thread mating with the tread of the elongated element, one of said elements performing a translatory movements as far as at least a position defined by an end-of-travel stop as a result of engagement with the other element, and said translating element being able to undergo momentary deformation upon reaching said at least one end-of-travel position with the effect of being disengaged from the other element.

Abstract: End-of-travel device (10) for roller blind actuating systems, comprising a member (22) displaceable as far as an end-of-travel position (26), coupling means (20) in engagement with the displaceable member (22) and rotationally actuated by a motor, and lever means (40) for converting the displacement of the displaceable member (22) into activation of an end-of-travel switch (60). The lever means (40) comprise a movable member (50) pivotably hinged on a frame and engageable with pressure by the displaceable member (22) when its reaches the end-of-travel position (26). The member (50) can be engaged with an actuating member (58) of the switch (60) where an actuating member of the switch (60) is positioned radially with respect to the axis of displacement of the member (22).

Abstract: A device (10) for fixing a pulley (40) includes a rotating pin (12) on the outer surface of which the pulley (40) may be fixed. The rotating pin (12) has at least one locking element (50) movable between a first locking position where it retains the pulley (40) and a second releasing position where it does not retain it. The locking element (50) is coupled with at least one element (60) which can be operated by the user so that the displacement of said at least one element (60) which can be operated by the user causes the displacement of the at least one locking element (50) between the first and second position.
