Abstract: A locking assembly for a door assembly of an agricultural vehicle includes: an actuator that defines an actuator axis and is linearly movable between a first position and a second position and rotatable about the actuator axis between a first locking orientation and a second locking orientation and includes a pair of locking features; a biaser configured to bias the actuator toward the first position; an energizer configured to bias the actuator toward the first locking orientation when the actuator is in the second locking orientation; and a lock configured to engage a second locking feature when the actuator is in the second locking orientation. Linear movement of the actuator from the first position to the second position while the actuator is in the second locking orientation causes the lock to disengage from the second locking feature so the energizer rotates the actuator towards the first locking orientation.

Abstract: A rotor shaft includes at least two rotor modules each having a body. Each rotor module has a first longitudinal end including a first torque transmitting feature and a second longitudinal end including a second torque transmitting feature. The rotor module body has a plurality of flats formed on a surface thereof. A magnet is mounted on one or more flat in each of the at least two rotor modules. A sleeve is fitted over the magnets to retain the magnets on the flats.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel visual golf club-head curvilinear path indicator and method of use. Specifically, the present invention provides a visual golf club-head curvilinear path guide in the form of one or more alignment lines or markings on putters and other club-heads that are curvilinear (instead of linear) and that curve toward the golfer's body as he or she stands at address. The curvilinear line (or lines) and/or shape (or shapes) are intended to provide the golfer with a visual reminder to move the club-head back and through along a curvilinear path.

Abstract: There is presented an electroluminescent phosphor powder of copper-activated zinc sulfide particles that has a size distribution with a D50 value of less than 12 ?m, and more preferably less than 10 ?m. The powder is preferably made by a method that includes the steps of combining copper-doped zinc sulfide with sulfur, zinc oxide and a chloride-containing flux to form a first mixture; preliminarily firing the first mixture and milling the preliminarily fired first mixture to form a milled material having a D50 value of less than or equal to about 5 ?m; blending the milled material with sulfur, zinc oxide and a chloride-containing flux to form a second mixture; firing the mixture in a first firing step at a temperature in a range of about 1020° C. to about 1080° C. to form a hexagonal zinc sulfide material; inducing defects into the hexagonal zinc sulfide material; firing the hexagonal zinc sulfide material in a second firing step at a temperature in a range of about 650° C. to about 850° C.

Abstract: The electroluminescent phosphor of this invention is comprised of zinc sulfide activated with copper and iodine and may produce an emission with an x color coordinate from 0.145 to 0.155 and a y color coordinate from 0.085 to 0.095. The phosphor preferably contains from about 0.08 to about 0.90 weight percent (wt. %) copper.

Abstract: There is provided a new and useful system for activating building facilities in the case of an emergency in which the system comprises an activation means to allow emergency personnel to selectively access the system. There is further provided a plurality of adjustable timer circuits, each of which timer circuit is arranged so that the system controls a respective one or more of the building facilities for a predetermined period of time, and a microprocessor to control the timer circuits.

Abstract: A gated optical amplifier for a PON includes an input for receiving an optical signal to be amplified, an output for outputting and amplified optical signal, an optical amplifier device for amplifying an optical input thereto, a detector, and an optical switch for allowing the amplified optical signal to leave the output upon the detector detecting the presence of an optical signal of a predetermined magnitude.
