A vehicular slider window assembly includes a frame having upper and lower rails. A fixed window has an opening and the rails are attached at the fixed window. A movable window is movable between a closed position and an opened position. A carrier disposed at a lower edge of the movable window moves with the movable window between the opened and closed positions. A sensing system determines when the movable window is in the closed position and includes a switch assembly that is actuated when the movable window is in the closed position. The switch assembly includes a switch device within a housing. A portion of the housing is an end stop configured to limit movement of the carrier when the movable window is in the closed position. The switch device includes a contact and, when the movable window is in the closed position, the contact actuates the switch device.

A dump gate system for a fluid hopper in a firefighting aircraft. A gate sealably engages a gate opening in the hopper at a closed position. The gate is hingedly connected about the gate opening, and a drive shaft is supported within the hopper. A crank arm is fixed to the drive shaft and is further coupled to the gate by a connecting link. The crank arm and the connecting link define an over-center geometry while the gate is at the closed position, such that weight of the fluid on the gate induces torque on the drive shaft in a gate-closing direction. An electric motor is selectively coupled to rotate the drive shaft in a gate-opening direction to thereby enable control of the fluid flow from the hopper according to an angular position of the drive shaft.

An electronic gaming machine including a cabinet defining an interior space. The electronic gaming machine also includes a door releasably fastened to the cabinet operable to move between a locked state preventing access to the interior space and an unlocked state permitting access to at least a portion of the interior space. A security housing comprising a locking assembly and an optical switch coupled to a processor. The locking assembly includes an actuator defining a channel. The optical switch comprises a transmitter and a receiver. When the door engages the locking assembly, the actuator is operable to move the channel to align with the transmitter and the receiver to form an optical path between the transmitter and the receiver through the channel and the optical switch is operable to communicate the locked state to at least one of the processor, the server computer, and the gaming system.

One or more embodiments of an automatic switching device and a refrigeration device is provided. The automatic switching device includes an ejection structure including a transmission gear and a rack matching the transmission gear in transmission. The automatic switching device includes a driving device, connected to the transmission gear and used for driving the transmission gear to rotate, so as to drive the rack to extend forwards to open a door body or retract backwards to close the door body. The automatic switching device further includes an auxiliary control device including an inductor arranged on the rack, a first induction switch and a second induction switch.

The present subject matter relates to systems and methods for automatically determining the level of an open chute door in connection with a chute system in a building structure. The position of the open door on the chute is automatically determined, without requiring any configuration at each door on the chute, utilizing a daisy chain wire signal connection and a chute busy wire (enable signal) signal connection. Pulses or other signals are counted at a base station to determine the level of the open door.

A system comprising a cover for closing a charging opening of an electric vehicle in which a charging socket for charging a driving battery of the electric vehicle is located. The cover is mounted laterally next to the charging opening, on an inner side of the body part, so as to be pivotable about a first pivot axis by way of a hinge arm and can be pivoted by way of an electromechanical actuator. For activating the actuator, the invention provides a pivotable transfer body, which multiplies a path of the cover and activates the actuator by way of a push button.

A door handle assembly and unlocking method include a handle connected to a base by a hinge for rotation between an idle position, substantially parallel to the base, and a door-opening position, inclined relative to the base. An actuator is within the base and moves the handle to at least the opening position. A first control device in the handle and connected to an electric unlocking system. The handle includes a tactile area on an inner surface for receiving pressure applied by the user's hand for activating the first control device and generating a first control signal. A second control device is on the base and is actuated by movement of the handle from the opening position to an over-opening position to generate a second control signal. The electric unlocking system receives the first or second control signal in order to unlock and allow opening of the door.

The present application provides a door lock, comprising a main sliding block, the main sliding block being able to move to and fro between a locked position and a released position along a first direction (length direction), and the main sliding block being able to lock the door lock when at the locked position, and the main sliding block being able to release the door lock when at the released position; and an induction sliding block, the induction sliding block being able to move to and fro between a closed position and an open position along the first direction (length direction) when the main sliding block moves to and fro between the locked position and the released position along the first direction (length direction), wherein the closed position and the open position of the induction sliding block are used for indicating whether the door lock is in a locked state or in a released state. The door lock of the present application can make the output state of a door lock state indicating apparatus stable.

An opening/closing body drive device includes: a motor which opens or closes an opening/closing body; a drive unit which rotates the motor; and a control unit which controls the drive unit. The drive unit includes a first and second integrated circuits having first and second switching elements and third and fourth switching elements which are connected to each other in series with respect to a power source and connection points of which are connected to one and the other terminals of the motor, respectively. The control unit turn-on drives the first and fourth switching elements or the second and third switching elements when driving the motor to be rotated forward or reversely. The control unit turn-on drives any one of the second and third switching elements when braking the motor during the forward rotation of the motor.

A vehicular opening/closing body control device includes: a braking control unit configured to apply a braking force to an opening/closing body provided in an opening in a vehicle; a traveling state determination unit configured to determine a traveling state of the vehicle; an abnormality detection unit configured to detect occurrence of a full-closing abnormality in which the opening/closing body is not held in a fully-closed state during the traveling of the vehicle; and a record holding unit configured to hold a detection record of the full-closing abnormality, wherein the braking control unit executes braking control through detection of the full-closing abnormality of the opening/closing body, and in a case where the detection record of the full-closing abnormality is held after the vehicle stops, executes the braking control of the opening/closing body based on the detection record of the full-closing abnormality before the vehicle travels.
