  • Patent number: 10899291
    Abstract: A liftgate seal is disclosed for a vehicle including a vehicle roof and a vehicle liftgate having a liftgate window pane, the liftgate seal includes a base wall, adapted to be secured to an interior surface of the window pane, and a channel structure including a first wall connected to the base wall and a second wall angled relative to the first wall. The second wall includes a distal end adapted to contact a rear edge of the vehicle roof when the vehicle liftgate is closed position thereby sealing a gap between the rear edge of the vehicle roof and the liftgate window pane.

  • Patent number: 10596981
    Abstract: A bracket for fixating a housing including a camera to a windscreen of a road vehicle including a base plate and a fixation arrangement. The fixation arrangement includes a cradle for receiving a locking pin protruding from the housing and a spring for applying a pressure on the locking pin forcing the locking pin towards a seat of the cradle when the spring is inserted into at least one slot of the cradle such that the locking pin is inserted located between the spring and the cradle. The spring is an elongated flat plate and includes a through-hole for securing the spring to the base plate. The through-hole is arranged at a longitudinally distal end of the spring and the fixation arrangement includes a first protrusion connected to said base plate. The first protrusion is arranged to engage the through-hole when the spring is inserted into the slot.

  • Publication number: 20160113468
    Abstract: A device for a scrubbing-liquid scraper ring for a wet-scrubbing machine having a motor-driven rotatable brush. The scraper ring includes a plurality of flexible blade members that are tilted in relation to the ring's circumference and intended rotational direction and that are held in place in the scraper ring by respective quick-attachment mechanisms. A quick-attachment mechanism includes a manual actuation part and an attachment part that cooperates with a respective flexible blade member, and the attachment part is configured to move between a holding position and a releasing position.

  • Publication number: 20150340767
    Abstract: A dual antenna comprising a dual reflector set-up with a main reflector, a sub-reflector and a feed antenna, where a helix is provided which also utilizes the main reflector. The sub-reflector is positioned between the main reflector and the helix so that the helix will not unnecessarily disturb the operation of the dual reflector set-up while using the main reflector.

  • Patent number: 6147648
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an antenna array adapted to radiate or receive electromagnetic waves of one or two polarizations with very low cross polarization and low sidelobes. An antenna array comprising many antenna elements, e.g., more than ten antenna elements, is provided in which formation of grating lobes are inhibited in selected directions of the radiation and cross polarization within the main lobe is suppressed at least 30 dB below the main lobe peak value. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the antenna elements of the antenna array comprise probe-fed patches, preferably rectangular patches, more preferred, square patches. Further, it is preferred that the feed probes are positioned at the axis of symmetry of the square or rectangular patches.
