A rear lock of a brassiere comprises a strip of an inelastic textile material, said strip fastened to one end of one of the rear parts of the brassiere and supporting a plurality of series of eyelets disposed on the rear side, said series extending in the lateral direction and being at a distance from one another in the longitudinal direction, wherein each series comprises at least two eyelets that are disposed at a distance from one another in the lateral direction. A flat base member has an inner end that is fastened to the end of the other rear part, an opposite outer end, a front side that at least partially overlaps the rear side of the material piece at the outer end, and a rear side opposite the front side. Corresponding plastic hooks which are generally designed to be complementary to the eyelets and which can be engaged therewith in paired fashion, are fastened to the front side of the member at the outer end thereof in such a way that the hooks can be engaged with the eyelets in alignment therewith and affixed thereto. A laterally extending rigid bar disposed on the base member or designed as a part thereof prevents relative motions of the hook from occurring in the lateral direction and bending of the base member near the hook.

A method of determining the position of a rotor of a permanent-magnet motor. The method uses two different schemes to determine the position of the rotor. A first scheme is used when the rotor rotates within a first speed range, by sequentially exciting and freewheeling a winding of the motor, measuring a parameter that depends on the rate of change of current in the winding, and comparing the parameter against a threshold. A second scheme is used when the rotor rotates within a second speed range, by generating a voltage signal that is proportional to the voltage across the winding, generating a further voltage signal that depends on the rate of change of current in the winding, and comparing the two signals.

A method of determining the position of a rotor of a brushless permanent-magnet motor is provided. The phase winding is freewheeled when a phase current exceeds an upper threshold. The method further includes measuring a parameter that corresponds to either: (i) the magnitude of the phase current during or at the end of freewheeling when the phase winding is freewheeled for the fixed period of time, or (ii) the time interval between the start and end of freewheeling or the start and end of excitation when the phase winding is freewheeled until the phase current falls below the lower threshold. The measured parameter is then used to define a saturation threshold. The phase winding is subsequently excited and freewheeled in the same manner, and the parameter is measured again. The method then compares the measured parameter against the saturation threshold, and determines that the rotor is at a predetermined position.
