Interior rearview mirror assembly with polymeric components

An interior rearview mirror assembly for vehicles incorporates a rearview mirror mount, a rearview mirror, and a rearview mirror support. The support is pivotally attached to the mirror mount by a first pivot element, and to the rearview mirror by a second pivot element. The mirror mount, support, a rearview mirror housing, and the pivot elements are each formed by molding from polymeric material having a respective color. In various embodiments, the colors may all be substantially the same, such as black, gray, tan, brown, burgundy, green, or another color, or may be different. In one form, the rearview mirror housing includes at least one electrical accessory. Electrical conductors may extend through the pivot elements and mirror support to the rearview mirror housing to provide an electrical connection for the electrical accessory to the vehicle electrical system. The pivot elements preferably include ball pivot members and sockets on various of the mirror mount, support and rearview mirror housing, and may include surfaces for enhanced frictional resistance to pivotal movement. In one form, the rearview mirror mount preferably includes receiving members which release the assembly from a windshield attachment member when sufficient force is applied such as upon impact.

Reduction-Oxidation-Tolerant Electrodes for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

InactiveUS20100159356A1Fraction of NiOIncrease volumeActive material electrodesSolid electrolyte fuel cellsPorosityLanthanum strontium manganite
An anode component of a solid oxide fuel cell is formed by combining a relatively coarse yttria-stabilized-zirconium (YSZ) powder, that is substantially composed of elongated particles, with a relatively fine NiO / YSZ or NiO powder of reduced particle size, whereby, upon sintering the combined powders, the coarse YSZ powder forms a microstructural cage of open porosity wherein the fine powder is distributed through the open porosity of the cage. A method of forming a cathode component includes combining a coarse YSZ powder, that is substantially composed of elongated particles, with a fine lanthanum strontium manganite powder of reduced particle size, whereby, upon sintering the combined powders, the coarse YSZ powder forms a microstructural cage of open porosity, wherein the fine powder is distributed through the open porosity of the cage.

Optical probe

The present invention relates to an optical probe (1) with an optical guide (2), e.g. an optical fibre, and a lens system (6) rigidly coupled to an end portion (2a) of the optical guide. The probe has a housing (3) with a cavity for the optical guide, the housing having at its distal end a transparent window (4), the window having an insignificant optical power as compared to the optical power of the said lens system (6). Actuation means (8) displaces the 5 lens system so as to enable optical scanning of a region of interest (ROI). The invention is particularly suited for miniature applications e.g. for in-vivo medical application. By attaching the lens system (6) to the optical guide (2) via the mount (7), the field of view (FOV) of the optical probe (1) may be determined directly by the transverse stroke of the optical fibre (2). Hence only a relatively small stroke is required. The field of view is thus 10 effectively no longer limited by the transverse stroke. The optical probe is especially advantageous for non-linear optical imaging where the optical guide may be an optical fibre with a relatively low exit numerical aperture.

Fiber optic coupler with variable coupling ratio and manufacturing method thereof

InactiveUS20100080509A1Modulation quality of the coupling ratio of the coupler becomes stable and able to be controlled preciselyManufacturingOptical articlesCoupling light guidesFiber loopEngineering
A fiber loop formed by bending of a connection section between the first fiber and the second fiber includes a coupling region and an upper taper region as well as a down taper region arranged symmetrically on two sides of the coupling region. Then the fiber optic splitter with the fiber loop is assembled with a splitting ratio modulation mechanism. Thus the manufacturing of the fiber optic power splitter with variable splitting ratio is simplified and this favors production and applications of the device. Moreover, the splitting and modulation quality of the splitter are stable and are controlled precisely. Thus the economic benefits of the device in manufacturing, operation quality and product competitiveness are all improved.

Clutch system with dual clutch and CSC with an axial CSC bearing comprising a platform for receiving the CSC, and powertrain

The invention relates to a clutch system (1) for a powertrain of a motor vehicle, comprising a clutch (2), which has at least one sub-clutch (3a, 3b), and an actuating device (4), which is provided in order to move the at least one sub-clutch (3a, 3b) between an engaged and a disengaged position. The actuating device (4) has a cylinder housing (6) which forms a central passage opening (5) for passing a transmission input shaft (26, 28) and which is axially and / or radially mounted by means of a support bearing (7). A bearing ring (8) of the support bearing (7) has a recess (10) which at least partly receives an axially oriented extension (9) of the cylinder housing (6). The invention also relates to a powertrain for a motor vehicle, comprising a transmission housing (14), which has an opening (13), and a clutch system (1) of the type according to the invention, at least the support bearing (7) being arranged radially within the opening (13).
