A vehicle opening and closing body driving device includes an annular driving belt including a coupling portion coupled to an opening and closing body of a vehicle and configured to be rotationally driven, and a guide frame having a sliding contact surface with which the driving belt is in sliding contact and extending in an opening and closing operation direction of the opening and closing body. The sliding contact surface is provided with a low sliding resistance portion having a plurality of recessed portions.

A drive circuit for driving an electro-optical device like an optically switchable glazing, e.g. a glass panel provided with a PDLC or SPD layer, comprises a set of input terminals for receiving an alternating input voltage at a first frequency; a set of output terminals for supplying an alternating output voltage at a second frequency; a control circuit generating a control signal dependent on an input signal, the input signal representing a charge state of the electro-optical device; and a current-direction circuit for controlling a current-flow direction of an electrical current in response to the control signal. The control circuit and the current-direction circuit are thereby configured to control the second frequency such that the electro-optical device is prevented from degradation, while keeping an energy consumption low.

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 door device for the interior of a passenger transport vehicle, and a passenger transport vehicle having at least one door device. The device includes a double-leaf sliding door with a first door leaf and a second door leaf in one plane. The door device has an upper guide for the first door leaf and an upper guide for the second door leaf. The guides are parallel with one another, and at least the upper guide for the first door leaf is offset with respect to the plane of the first and the second door leaf.

Fluid transfer systems are disclosed that can be configured to transfer precise amounts of fluid from a source container to a target container. The fluid transfer system can have multiple fluid transfer stations for transferring fluids into multiple target containers or for combining different types of fluids into a single target container to form a mixture. The fluid transfer system can include a pump and a destination sensor, such as a weight sensor. The fluid transfer system can be configured to flush remaining fluid out of a connector to reduce waste, using air or a flushing fluid.
