  • Publication number: 20120197774
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and media for generating and sending indications of interest in trading systems are provided. In some embodiments, systems for generating and sending indications of interest in trading systems are provided, the systems comprising: at least one hardware processor that: determines whether an order is blocked from inclusion in an indication of interest; determines whether the order is marketable; generates the indication of interest so that it includes at least a portion of the order when the order is determined to not be blocked and the order is marketable; determines whether the indication of interest is blocked from being sent to a destination; and sends the indication of interest to the destination when the indication of interest is determined to not be blocked from being sent to the destination.

  • Publication number: 20090230703
    Abstract: A latch mechanism includes a latch chassis, a latch bolt having a closed position and an open position, a pawl having an engaged position at which the pawl holds the latch bolt in the closed position and a disengaged position at which the pawl allows the latch bolt to move to the open position, and a first release handle operably connected to the pawl via a transmission path to selectively move the pawl from the engaged position to the disengaged position. The transmission path includes a toggle linkage having a first link pivotable about a first axis and a second link pivotable about a second axis, the first link and the second link being pivotable relative to each other about a common axis. The latch mechanism includes a stop to limit rotation of the second link in a first direction relative to the first link.

  • Publication number: 20090173186
    Abstract: A declutching mechanism includes a chassis, a first gear rotatable relative to the chassis about a first gear axis fixed relative to the chassis, and a second gear selectively engageable with the first gear. The declutching mechanism includes an eccentric arrangement having a first shaft with a first shaft axis and a second shaft with a second shaft axis offset from the first shaft axis. The first shaft is non-rotatably fixed to the second shaft and selectively rotatably mounted in the chassis. The second gear is rotatably mounted on the second shaft. A holding feature selectively holds the eccentric arrangement in a first position. With the eccentric arrangement being held in the first position by the holding feature, the first gear and the second gear are in meshing engagement. With the eccentric arrangement being released by the holding feature, gear separating forces cause the eccentric arrangement to rotate about the first axis to a second position, thereby disengaging the first gear and the second gear.

  • Patent number: 7311341
    Abstract: A lock mechanism for a vehicle door latch includes a lock actuator drivingly coupled to a lock link for movement of the lock link between a first position corresponding to a locked state of a latch and a second position corresponding to an unlocked state of the latch. The mechanism further includes a superlock actuator drivingly connected to a superlock link slidably mounted for movement of the superlock link between a third position corresponding to a superlocked state of the latch and a fourth position corresponding to a non-superlocked state of the latch. A fixed abutment surface and an inside lock lever are mounted such that movement of the lock link between the first and second positions may be achieved when the superlock link is in the fourth position. When the superlock link is the third position, the relative positions of the inside lock lever, the superlock link and the abutment surface prevent movement of the lock link between the first and second positions.
