In a method for displaying information in a motor vehicle, a plurality of objects are represented graphically with the aid of a display mounted in a motor vehicle. A user-interface device generates graphics data which control the display such that the graphical objects are shown disposed on a virtual, perspectively displayed ring, and that in response to an input with the aid of an input device, an arithmetic logic unit of the user-interface device alters the graphics data such that the graphical objects on the virtual ring rotate like a carousel. A corresponding display device is provided.

This invention provides a slipcover touch input apparatus and structure for displays for computing devices that converts a non-touch screen display to a touch screen display. The slipcover assembly acts as a sheath or cover for the display, and the touch screen is mounted in a window or opening of the casing of the display so that the touch screen is oriented to mimic the position of the display. This touch screen slipcover can convert any display of a computing device into a touch screen display.

The present invention describes a cartridge magazine assembly for air guns and paintball guns, and the magazine is designed as an independent device inserted into a breech of a gun to connect a feeder of the gun. The magazine has a vertical feeding chamber at the front of the magazine, and a casing can be added onto the feeding chamber for feeding paintballs or pellets of different sizes, and a feeder spring is installed to pop a feeder bracket to define the feeding device. A bottle frame with through holes is defined at the rear of the magazine, a hopper is secured into the bottom of the bottle frame by a screw, and the hopper can be moved up and down manually or by a tool. A valve connected with a gas supply tube is installed at the top of the hopper, a flexible plastic feeder case is installed at the top of the magazine or a valve member is installed at the connection of the hopper and the feeding chamber, so that paintballs or pellets are fed from an end of the feeding chamber of the magazine and a gas cylinder is installed from a side of the magazine and pushed upward by a secured hopper underneath. The value controls the compressed gas in the gas cylinder to discharge the gas from the valve tube, so as to supply powerful push for shooting when the magazine is installed into a gun, and provide an easy and quick way for loading and storing paintballs or pellets and carrying and changing the gas cylinder.

An assembly of an airbag module and a steering wheel of a vehicle has the airbag module moveable between a resting position and a working position, corresponding to the actuation of the horn of the vehicle. Advantageously, the retaining assembly drives the airbag module exclusively along parallel to the axis of rotation of the steering wheel, providing constant horn activation loads.

As improved airbag module retention assembly for attachment to a steering wheel has an airbag module housing having an airbag cover, an internally stored airbag. The airbag module housing has two pairs of attachment legs. A base plate assembly has a base plate with a pair of mounting brackets pivotally attached at ends of the mounting brackets to the hinge supports projecting from the base plate and being linearly movable relative to the hinge supports. A resilient member such as a spring returns the airbag module housing to a resting position upon activation of a horn. The resilient member is interposed between one mounting bracket and the base plate. The pair of mounting brackets are connected by a pin and a slot. Each end of a mounting bracket is attached to an attachment leg of the airbag module housing. Movement of the airbag module housing assembly is constrained to a displacement parallel to the axis of rotation of the steering wheel.

A system and method for generating code that reduces the cost for large projects and that provides easier and quicker ways of finding errors and making modifications. A method of generating code to be deployed in an application server comprises the steps of receiving an archive file to be deployed, introspecting an input class included in the archive file to generate information relating to the input class, generating a markup language description of the input class based on the generated information relating to the input class, creating an event handler for a method node found in the markup language description, registering the event handler, parsing the markup language description and invoking the registered event handler, and generating output code using the invoked event handler.

A compact shade held over the head during inclement weather or to shield the sun. The shade has a simple circular or elongated loop of a thin strip of spring-like material covered by a sheet of one or more layers of soft, lightweight material. The shape of the elongated loop may vary from a generally rectangular shape with slightly rounded corners to an oval or generally elliptical shape. One or both of the major surfaces of the material are adapted to reflect water, snow, or radiation from the sun. The single elongated fabric-covered loop of the head shade can easily be twisted into a figure-8 configuration and fold into itself with two quick hand motions. The shade is made of soft, lightweight flexible material having two handles on the underside. It can be held together in its compact state with either a retaining member or separate pouch.
