A substrate with a textured surface is disclosed. The substrate may be, for example, a light emitter comprising a light guide, for example a backlight element for use in a display device, wherein a surface of the light guide, for example a glass substrate, is configured to have a textured surface with a predetermined RMS roughness and a predetermined correlation length of the texture. A plurality of light scatter supressing features can be provided on the textured surface. Textured surfaces disclosed herein may be effective to reduce electrostatic charging of the substrate surface. Methods of producing the textured surface are also disclosed.

A telecommunication cable is equipped with at least one optical fiber coated by a tight buffer layer made from a polymeric material having an ultimate elongation equal to or lower than 100% and an ultimate tensile strength equal to or lower than 10 MPa. The above combination of features of the polymeric material forming the buffer layer provides an optical fiber which is effectively protected during installation operations and during use, and at the same time can be easily stripped by an installer without using any stripping tools, simply by applying a small pressure with his fingertips and a moderate tearing force along the fiber axis.

Electro-optic modulator devices and related waveguide components comprising BaTiO₃ films.

A cable guiding device includes a base, upper and lower guide members disposed along a longitudinal direction, in which two ends of the upper guide member are mounted on the base and two ends of the lower guide member are mounted on the base. A slider defining a central cavity is penetrated therethrough in a lateral direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. Upper and lower movable members are fitted slidably over the upper and lower guide members respectively, in which two ends of the upper movable member are mounted on two longitudinal side walls of the slider, and two ends of the lower movable member are mounted on two longitudinal side walls of the slider respectively. Upper and lower guiding rollers are fitted rotatably over the upper and lower movable members and disposed within the central cavity respectively.

A wheel hub transmission unit for a drive wheel of a vehicle is provided. The wheel hub transmission unit includes a wheel axle, a pinion hub carrier concentrically arranged with respect to the wheel axle, a pinion mounted in a torsionally rigid manner onto said pinion hub carrier and configured to drive the drive wheel, and a torque transmission device having a transmission sleeve. The transmission sleeve is made from a magnetically coded material and includes a measuring area that is utilized to measure a torque by utilizing magnetic properties of the magnetically coded material of the transmission sleeve. An annular space is radially provided between the transmission sleeve and the wheel axle in the measuring area with a sensor coil being accommodated therein, the annular space being axially accessible from outside the transmission sleeve.

A color changer has a valve block for connecting a plurality of coating material lines to an application device. The valve block has a parallelepiped housing. The housing has a central color channel with an axial direction and contains valve bores for receiving valves and a length of a central color channel is as short as possible with a simultaneous supply of many paint feed lines. A first number of parallel valve bores open into the color channel at first openings, a second number of parallel valve bores open into the color channel at second openings on the opposite side of the color channel and offset in the axial direction with respect to the first number of valve bores. A third number of parallel valve bores open into the color channel at third openings and a fourth number of parallel valve bores open into the color channel at fourth openings.

For the production of fibre waveguides mounted in a metal hollow profile, a flat metal strip is supplied to a deforming unit. The deforming unit is configured for continuously deforming the supplied flat metal strip into a shape corresponding to the hollow profile. The hollow profile is continuously welded along a longitudinal seam by means of a laser. A filler gel with a viscosity which increases with decreasing temperature, and one or more fibre waveguides, are introduced into the welded hollow profile in a continuous process via a guide or protective tube. In order to introduce the one or more fibre waveguides with an excess length into the hollow profile, the welded hollow profile is elastically stretched, is cooled, and is relaxed again. The finished product is received in a receiving unit. The continuous closed-loop control of the excess length of the fibre waveguides is performed inter alia through continuous open-loop control of the gel temperature, of the laser power and of the force exerted on the hollow profile for the elastic stretching.

A starter unit comprising: an input and an output; a starter element, configured as a hydrodynamic component comprising a drive element that can be coupled to the input in a rotationally fixed manner and a driven element that can be coupled to the output. A free wheel mechanism is located between the driven element of the starter element and the output.

A foldable frame comprising at least an elongate first frame member foldable about an intermediately disposed first folding axis and a pair of second frame members, each foldably connected to portions of the first frame member on opposing ends of the first folding axis. The second frame members are each foldable about respective end axes, but only when the respective end axes are aligned on a second folding axis. Alignment of the end axes on the second folding axis occurs only when the frame is folded to approximately a discrete position about the first folding axis; folding of the second frame members is not enable when the frame is mis-positioned from the discrete position.

An internal heat exchanger for an air conditioning system, comprising an outer tube and a line structure arranged inside the outer tube defining a meandering serpentine first flow channel, with the second flow channel formed between the outer tube and the line structure. The first flow channel is formed by extruded components joined together to form a unitary structure inserted into the second flow channel which includes facing channel elements defining a serpentine path and two shells adhered to the channel elements defining the sides of the flow path and having fins extending perpendicular to the base disposed in the second flow channel.
