Abstract: A removable manual and tactical safety device (1) for a hammerless or linear striker fired firearm, comprising a cylindrical body (2) having a longitudinal recess (3), a first lever (4) and a second lever (5) being secured together according to the axis of said longitudinal recess (3), said cylindrical body (2) having a transverse housing (9) for lodging a push pin (10) comprising a cogwheel having at least two cut cogs (14A) defining at least a first position and a second position of the push pin (10) respectively, said first lever (4) having a body (6) provided on its external surface with at least two pinions teeth (14B) capable of cooperating with the cut cogs (14A), so that the rotating of the first lever (4) secured with the second lever (5) permits the displacement of the push pin (10) perpendicularly to the axis of the longitudinal recess (3), said push pin (10) being held in said first and second position respectively by a spring (11) cooperating with a pin (12) located in a longitudinal cavity (13)

Abstract: A lithographic apparatus having a component that moves in a first direction, the component including a passive gas flow system. The passive gas flow system has a gas inlet to drive gas into the passive gas flow system when the component moves in the first direction and a gas outlet, connected to the gas inlet by a gas conduit, to direct the gas that is driven into the passive gas flow system in a certain direction.

Abstract: A display device comprises row (5) and column (6) electrodes and a movable element (3) and means (17) for supplying voltages to the electrodes, wherein the row electrodes are situated on the movable element. The means supply, in operation, such voltages to the electrodes that use is made of the memory effect of the movable element. More in particular, the row electrodes are, in operation, supplied with “on”, “off” and “hold” voltages and the column electrodes are supplied with “hold” and ‘off’-voltages. Application of “on” voltages turns on the pixels in a row, simultaneous application of “off” voltages turns a pixel off. Application of a “hold” voltage to either one of the electrodes preserves the status of the pixel.

Abstract: An automatic functioning device for distributing compressed gas comprises a jack and a distributor. The device successively and automatically carries out the following operations, after the piston has been initially hit on its rear end by a hammer: forward piston displacement, compressed gas intake into the chamber and pressurization of the latter; recoil of the piston to the rear, escape of compressed gas contained in the chamber and depressurization of the latter; return of the piston to the front, closing of the compressed gas intake, escape to the front of the remaining compressed gas contained in the chamber and return of the device to its initial position.
