Louver assembly capable of having mounted thereon solar cell panel
A solar cell louver assembly includes: a plurality of solar cell module units having a solar cell panel part, with a pair of terminal portions provided on both end parts, a pair of first electrode terminals electrically connected to the respective terminal portions, and a pair of first caps mounted on the solar cell panel part to surround the respective first electrode terminals; second electrode terminals electrically connected to the first electrode terminals, and second caps accommodating the second electrode terminals and having mounted thereon the first caps; a frame unit having an inner frame such that the second caps are mounted rotatably in the length direction, and an outer frame surrounding the inner frame; and a connector unit between the inner and outer frames and having a pair of third electrode terminals electrically connecting the second electrode terminals of adjacent module units when mounted in the frame unit.
Green window system
The system is compose of a series of operable louvers mounted on a four sided frame and connected on each side to the operating mechanism that allows for easy opening and closing of the louvers. Every part of the system that is exposing to the exterior of the building is separated from the interior part of the system by a low heat conductivity material as a thermal barrier. Each operable louver is composing of a four sided main frame, two panes of glass (inner and outer) and a coupling mechanism on each side that connects to the operating mechanism. The main frame acts as the thermal break as well as a system that absorbs the energy created when an outside object impacts the window from the outside. The system incorporates sealing devices between all moving parts to eliminate water and air infiltration. The operating system allows for easy opening and closing of the window by rotating each louver with the crank mechanism assisted by springs.

Light-control assembly
A light-control assembly including a modular beam with a plurality of adjacent circular bores separated by web portions, and a series of light-controlling members with laterally compliant edge structures mounted in the beam so that the edge structures accommodate the webs between the bores when the light-controlling members are closed to achieve enhanced, blackout or near blackout light-blocking along the edges of the light-controlling members.

Aftermarket side window wiper apparatus and method for a motor vehicle
A window wiper includes an elongated profile of waterproof flexible material having a base extending under weather stripping for a side vehicle window, a support connected along the base to extend above the weather stripping, a cover connected along the support and extending over the base for covering at least some of the weather stripping and a wiper portion connected along the support and having a resilient wiper area for pressing against the window. A length of adhesive tape is connected along the profile and extends over the base for adhering to the weather stripping to fix the window wiper to the weather stripping.
SLAT FOR A SLATTED ROOF OR A SLATTED WINDOW, AND A SLATTED ROOF OR SLATTED WINDOW HAVING SUCH A SLAT
The invention relates to a slat (1) or a slatted roof (20) or a slatted window, comprising a light-permeable sheet-like covering element (2) having a longitudinal extent and width (b), wherein the width (b) is less than the or extent, and having an axis of rotation (5) which runs along the longitudinal extent of the slat (1) in order to pivot the slat (1) between a closed position and an open position, in order to allow a particularly flexible variation of the incoming sunlight entering a room (22) situated below the slatted roof (20) and in order to be able to set the desired temperature, climate control and brightness conditions in the room in a targeted manner, it is proposed that the slat (1) has at least one light-impermeable sheet-like shading element (6) having a longitudinal extent and a width (h), in which the shading element extends with the longitudinal extent thereof along the longitudinal extent of the covering element (2), that it is arranged with a first longitudinal side (6a) on the covering element (2) and projects with a second longitudinal side (6b), opposite the first longitudinal side (6a), from the covering element (2), wherein the at least one shading element (6) is arranged in the areal extent thereof at an angle () to the areal extent of the covering element (2).

LOUVER BLADE, LOUVERED ROOF, AND VIEWING SHELTER
Provided are louver blade, louvered roof, and viewing shelter. Drainage groove is arranged on one side of body of louver blade; and includes groove wall located on outer side of body. Baffle plate is arranged on top of groove wall. When body is arranged horizontally, top end of groove wall is not higher than top surface of louver blade. Baffle plate can switch between natural and stressed states. Top end of baffle plate in natural state is higher than top end of groove wall, and has height that can be reduced in stressed state. Louvered roof includes shelter frame and multiple louver blades. When multiple louver blades are closed on shelter frame, other side of one louver blade relative to drainage groove presses against baffle plate of adjacent louver blade. Baffle plate switches to stressed state. When louver blades rotate to open, baffle plate switches to natural state.
