Abstract: A direct drive for a loom reed includes a linear motor carrying out a linear oscillating motion, or an arc segment motor carrying out a pivoting oscillating motion, or a circular coaxial motor carrying out a pivoting oscillating motion. The circular coaxial motor has a hollow shaft rotor arranged within a hollow shaft stator, and may further have an additional hollow shaft stator arranged within the rotor in a sandwich motor construction. The arc segment motor and the linear motor may similarly have a rotor member sandwiched between two stator members. Two motor units can be provided respectively above and below the weaving plane to drive the reed together. With these measures, the driving force is increased, yet the drive arrangement is confined to the available installation space.

Abstract: A gas bag for a vehicle occupant restraint system, which gas bag can be transferred from a folded condition into a deployed condition and comprises a first chamber which has an inflation opening, and a second chamber which is in flow connection with the first chamber. The first chamber is generally elongate in the deployed condition and the second chamber is connected with the first chamber at a side face of the first chamber, so that the gas bag is asymmetrical. A limiting strap is provided which extends across an outside of the second chamber and across part of an outside of the first chamber.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for generating a steering signal for controlling an actuating drive for an adjustment of steerable wheels on motor vehicles, in particular passenger vehicles. The device comprises a non-rotatable frame having an axis of symmetry and curved guiding portions, as well as a pair of handles intended for transmitting actuating forces and being coupled with each other. The handles are mounted on the guiding portions so as to be displaceable in same direction and are able to be displaced along the guiding portions and relative to the axis of symmetry to a limited extent. The device further comprises a measurement transducer for generating one of an electrical and electronic signal for determining a position of the handles relative to the frame.

Abstract: An information management system, method and computer program code and means for facilitating communications between user members of an online network is provided which includes receipt, from a first user of an online network, of an identification of a second user of the online network. An indication of an association level of the second user is also received First information having an association level different from the second user and second information having an association level corresponding to the second user is also received from the first user. Only the second information based on the association level is transmitted to the second user.

Abstract: The invention relates to a steering wheel comprising a hub, a steering wheel rim, at least one spoke connecting the hub and the steering wheel rim, and at least one decorative element. At least one of the steering wheel rim and the spoke have a skeleton and a sheathing surrounding the skeleton. The skeleton has a recess and the decorative element has a fastening element which projects into the recess.

Abstract: A heatable steering wheel with electric heating wires on a wheel rim is provided. The heating, wires are covered by a casing. The casing consists of a support layer that has good thermal conductivity and of an externally applied layer of veneer wood.
