  • Patent number: 12221252
    Abstract: The invention relates to a parcel for the transport of objects, comprising: a case having a bottom and a peripheral border formed of panels abutted to each other, digital display means, making it possible to display delivery information on the parcel, the digital display means comprising a damping system, characterized in that the damping system comprises an elastically deformable cover damping the movement of the digital display means from outside the parcel inwards, and vice versa.

  • Patent number: 11939106
    Abstract: A foldable package includes a box defining a stowage volume, the box having a bottom and a peripheral rim including: a first panel; a second panel opposite to the first panel; a third panel; a fourth panel opposite to the third panel. The box is able to adopt: a stowage configuration in which each panel extends substantially parallel to the bottom; and an operating configuration in which each panel, of the second panel, of the third panel and of the fourth panel extends substantially perpendicular to the bottom. The package further includes a mechanism for returning the first panel and the second panel into the operating position, tending to make them pass from their stowage position to their operating position in the inactive position of the locking mechanism.

  • Patent number: 11857048
    Abstract: Mechanism for opening/closing an opening leaf with respect to a frame. The mechanism is configured to cause, upon opening, a lifting of the opening leaf from a closure plane to an opening plane parallel to the closure plane, followed by a pivoting of the opening leaf about a pivot axis orthogonal to the translational movement of the opening leaf, and vice versa upon closing. The mechanism comprises: a fixed frame; a movable frame mounted translationally on the fixed frame; a hinge part mounted in a pivoting manner on the movable frame and coupled to a mechanism for attachment to the opening leaf; an actuator comprising an output member which can be actuated in a direction orthogonal to the pivot axis of the opening leaf; and a transmission that comprises a transmission link coupled in a pivoting manner to the output member, and to the hinge part.

  • Patent number: 7752957
    Abstract: A hydraulic motor with rotating shaft coupled to a piston with alternating rectilinear displacement. The hydraulic motor comprises a casing enclosing a rotating shaft, a piston and an inverter comprising a first sleeve formed as one piece with the piston, a second sleeve, fixed in position, and a distributor mounted so as to rotate in the interior of the second sleeve and conduit and hole elements arranged between the second sleeve and the distributor and means for controlling the rotation of the distributor as a function of the displacement of the first sleeve so as to invert the direction of displacement of the piston.
