  • Vehicle door handle with sensitive actuator
    Patent number: 11248403
    Abstract: A vehicle door handle includes a coupling device having a handle lever movable between a flush position in which the handle lever is flush with an exterior door panel surface, a ready position in which the handle lever is extended and graspable by a user, and an inwards pushed position. The handle lever includes a handle lever shaft rotatively connected to a handle lever base. The vehicle door handle further includes a positioning device, at least one reduction mechanism driven in rotation by an electric motor and driving in rotation the handle lever shaft, and an electronic control unit operable to create a motor short circuit so as to generate a torque resistance on the handle lever.
    Type: Grant

  • Medically implantable energy storage system having safe recharging capabilities
    Patent number: 6570363
    Abstract: An implantable energy storage arrangement for a medical implant, which is provided with a rechargeable storage for electrical energy and a unit for controlling the charging process via an actuator in the charging path. A control which can be externally activated is provided to bypass the actuator. Furthermore, a corresponding process for operating an implantable energy storage arrangement provides for bypassing of the actuator when storage voltage is overly low.
