Abstract: A motorization device for a wheelchair may have a positioning arm adapted to be connected to a frame of the wheelchair by at least one lockable joint. A motor block may be operatively connected to the positioning arm by at least one other lockable joint, the motor block including at least a motor and an output roller operatively coupled to the motor, the output roller configured to contact a wheel of the wheelchair to impart torque to the wheel. The positioning arm and the motor block collaborate to provide the motor block with an engaged configuration in which the motor block is configured to biasingly contact a wheel of the wheelchair, and a disengaged configuration in which the motor block is separated from the wheel of the wheelchair.

Abstract: A control system for a vehicle includes a controller. The controller is configured to receive signals from a plurality of vehicle sensors, a vehicle communications system, a ride-share application, a navigation system, or a combination of these. The controller is configured to determine whether at least one of a plurality of conditions is met to execute a small leak test on a fuel system of the vehicle based on the signals, where the plurality of conditions include an available time segment to execute the small leak test, a level surface, a smooth surface, and a constant vehicular momentum. The controller is configured to execute the small leak test when at least one of the plurality of conditions is met.

Abstract: A body bag (900) can be assembled by a stitching process while providing increased fluid retention capabilities. An upper outer layer (101) and a lower outer layer (102), each of which can be non-woven materials, form the outer surfaces of the body bag (900). An absorbent layer (103) is disposed between the upper outer layer (101) and the lower outer layer (102). One or more edges (303,403,503,603) can be folded into a periphery (332) of the body bag (900). Stitching (802) can then be applied along the periphery (332) such that the stitching (802) passes through the upper outer layer (101), the lower outer layer (102), an upper edge (994) of the fold in the absorbent layer (103), and a complementary bottom edge (995) of the fold in the absorbent layer (103). Handles (1001,1002,1003,1004) can be included as well.

Abstract: A secondary air control valve connected to an exhaust system includes a passage forming member and a valve mechanism. The passage forming member includes a container unit and a plurality of fins. The container unit that defines therein an exit cavity and an exit passage. The plurality of fins projects from the container unit into the exit cavity such that the plurality of fins collides with counter-flow exhaust gas that counter-flows in a direction from the exit passage to the exit cavity through the first opening. The plurality of fins divides the exit cavity into a plurality of cavities, in which counter-flow exhaust gas forms a plurality of vortex flows.
