  • Publication number: 20240391595
    Abstract: Seat belt web retractors having web locking mechanisms are described herein. In some embodiments, a seat belt web retractor includes an inertial locking mechanism operably coupled to a spool about which a seat belt web is wound. The web retractor further includes a web locking mechanism operably coupled to the inertial locking mechanism. The web locking mechanism can include a driving member that is actuated by engagement of the inertial locking mechanism with the web spool in response to rapid extraction of the web from the retractor. Actuation of the driving member drives first and second clamping portions toward each other, thereby clamping the web in between the clamping members and restraining the web from further movement out of the retractor.

  • Patent number: 11099091
    Abstract: A tire pressure monitoring system comprising a tire pressure monitoring device for mounting on an internal surface of a tire and including a pressure sensor for monitoring the fluid pressure in the tire. The system has an RFID tag located on the tire separately from the tire pressure monitoring device. In response to detecting a tire pressure event from monitoring the fluid pressure of said fluid, the tire pressure monitoring device causes the RFID to transmit data, which is received by the tire pressure monitoring device.

  • Patent number: 7503557
    Abstract: An apparatus for dividing a bundle of sheet material into smaller bundles includes a platform having a front and back on which the bundle is placed on an edge, a back wall against which the bundle is placed, a recess in the platform, a sliding member moveable from the front to the back of the recess along an axis and pivotable about the axis and having a portion which extends above the platform, and a finger protruding rearwardly from the sliding member offset from the axis and having a length equal to the thickness of the smaller bundles. The sliding member is moved backwards until the portion which extends above the platform abuts the bundle. It is then pivoted to lift the finger under a part of the bundle and a smaller bundle is lifted upwards from the bundle such that a user can then remove that smaller bundle.
