Abstract: The present invention relates to a driver module for use in a light fixture, especially an outdoor light fixture. The driver module is arranged for wirelessly powering a further module and for transmitting data from and/or to this further module. The further module can be a sensor module or a communications module. This allows for easy replacement of modules in light fixtures, late stage configuration of light fixtures and for upgradeability of light fixtures.

Abstract: An optical device for a lens assembly of a camera module is disclosed. The optical device includes a liquid lens having at least one fixed lens and a transparent window, facing each other and delimiting, at least in part, an internal volume containing two immiscible liquids having different optical indices, and a first and a second electrode. The liquids form an interface moveable by application of a voltage between said electrodes. The optical device also includes a liquid lens holder, wherein the liquid lens holder has at least one electrical contact for contacting one electrode of the liquid lens, and at least one Z reference datum for aligning the fixed lens of the liquid lens with other optical elements of the lens assembly.

Abstract: An optical lens arrangement including a lens barrel having a monolithic structure and including a first, a second, a third, and a fourth contact region having a common axis, a liquid lens having a structure containing a first conductive liquid and a second insulating liquid, both liquids immiscible, having different refractive indices and meeting each other at a liquid-liquid interface the curvature of which is controllable by a voltage applied to first and second electrode, wherein the structure has first and second fixed lenses in contact respectively with one of the liquids, and a third fixed lens, wherein outer edges of the first, second and third fixed lenses are positioned in contact with respective first, second and third contact regions of the lens barrel to align the first, second and third fixed lenses with each other, and wherein the fourth contact region contacts an edge of the liquid-liquid interface.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the tool for working tubes. The tool includes a body having hinged thereto a trigger for moving back-and-fourth, and which is connected to a support member supporting a working head. A drive device is provided for driving the support member mounted on the body and connected to the trigger. The support member includes a toothed rack, and the drive device includes a first toothed gearwheel having a first module and meshing with the rack, a drive pawl serving to advance the rack forwards, and a retaining pawl preventing it from moving backwards. The drive device includes a second toothed gearwheel having a second module smaller than the first module, the second gear-wheel being secured to the first gearwheel, the drive pawl and the retaining pawl being engaged with the second gearwheel.
