A vehicle sun visor module includes a ceiling component, which forms at least part of a ceiling of a vehicle, and a vehicle sun visor module, which is arranged to be adjacent to the ceiling component. The vehicle sun visor includes a visor main body, which is configured to be pivotal relative to the ceiling component between a use position and a retracted position, and a mirror attached to the visor main body. The ceiling component includes a lighting device, which is configured to radiate light into a passenger compartment, and an inductive switch, which turns on the lighting device when set to an ON state and turns off the lighting device when set to an OFF state. The vehicle sun visor includes a magnet that is configured to switch the inductive switch between the ON state and the OFF state.

The present disclosure relates to a coolant level sensor device for application in vehicles, comprising three interoperable component parts: a housing component, an interchangeable cartridge assembly, and a resistor pigtail. The housing component may be configured to permanently and/or semi-permanently reside within the engine cooling system such that the housing component may receive the interchangeable cartridge assembly selectively connected with the resistor pigtail. The interchangeable cartridge assembly may comprise a reed switch that may be replaceable when damaged. Further, the interchangeable cartridge mechanism may be configured to connect with the resistor pigtail, which may include at least one resistor, such that the at least one resistor may be removed from close proximity to the high temperatures generated by the engine, thus increasing the life of the resistor components. This three part configuration may allow for the easy replacement of elements of the coolant level sensor prone to failure, without the need to replace functioning components.

A detection device (18) for detecting the position of a moving object comprises a base (20); an arm (22) that is mounted rotatable to the base (20), wherein the arm (22) is rotatable around a first rotational axis (26) and has a free end (28) for contact with the moving object; and a sensor (24) that is configured to detect rotation of the arm (22) relative to the base (20), wherein the sensor (24) has a first part and a second part, wherein the first part moves with the arm (22), and the second part is attached to the base (20). The first part is a first component of a magnet (40) switch (42) pair, wherein the switch is an electrical switch (42) that is configured to be actuated by the magnetic field of the magnet (40), and the second part is another component of the magnet (40) switch (42) pair.

An electronic apparatus includes, in a case, substrates with electronic components mounted thereon, a thermoplastic hot-melt resin, and a fluid branch member, wherein: the inside of the case is divided into a plurality of spaces; the plurality of spaces are at least any space among spaces between the case and the substrates and spaces between the substrates, and are filled with the thermoplastic hot-melt resin; and the fluid branch member is provided with an opening as an inlet for the thermoplastic hot-melt resin, and flow path parts for branching the thermoplastic hot-melt resin into multiple parts and guiding the same.

Robotic surgical tools, systems, and methods for preparing for and performing robotic surgery include a memory mounted on the tool. The memory can perform a number of functions when the tool is loaded on the tool manipulator: first, the memory can provide a signal verifying that the tool is compatible with that particular robotic system. Secondly, the tool memory may identify the tool-type to the robotic system so that the robotic system can reconfigure its programming. Thirdly, the memory of the tool may indicate tool-specific information, including measured calibration offsets indicating misalignment of the tool drive system, tool life data, or the like. This information maybe stored in a read only memory (ROM), or in a nonvolatile memory which can be written to only a single time. The invention further provides improved engagement structures for coupling robotic surgical tools with manipulator structures.

A trailer break-away switch comprises an electromechanical means to energize a towed trailer brake in the event of unintended decoupling of the trailer from the towing vehicle. When in normal operation, the trailer break-away switch operates as a normally open switch between the stored energy source (the battery) on the trailer and the trailer brake system. In the event of unintended decoupling of the trailer from the towing vehicle, a pin is pulled from the trailer break-away switch, which activates the switch. Activating the switch allows electrical power to be connected to the trailer brake system. In some cases, the switch directly connects a trailer battery to the electromagnetic coils of the electric brakes.

A night vision goggle adapter including: a goggle mount assembly; a primary magnet generating a magnetic flux; a magnetic flux conducting unit having a first end and a second end; a first plurality of shunts; and a second plurality of shunts disposed about the goggle mount assembly; wherein the magnetic flux conducting unit may overlap the primary magnet and form a magnetic circuit for conducting the magnetic flux towards the second end of the magnetic flux conducting unit when none of the first plurality of shunts and none of the second plurality of shunts are overlapped by the magnetic flux conducting unit; and wherein the magnetic flux is shorted through one of the first plurality of shunts or the second plurality of shunts when the magnetic flux conducting unit is positioned to overlap one of the first plurality of shunts or one of the second plurality of shunts.

A reed switch assembly includes a case having a receiving space formed therein, a substrate assembly seated on the case, and a cover for covering at least a portion of the substrate assembly, wherein the substrate assembly includes a printed circuit board, and a connector and a reed sensor that are electrically coupled to the printed circuit board.

A magnet reed switch assembly. The magnetic reed switch assembly includes a reed switch having a body and a pair of electrical contacts disposed in the body. A ring magnet has a bore, and a portion of the body of the reed switch is disposed within the bore, with the ring magnet positioned close to the pair of electrical contacts. The ring magnet is movable along the axis of the body between a first position and a second position. A plunger includes a proximal end coupled to the ring magnet and a distal end having a sensing magnet. When a ferrous target is disposed near the sensing magnet, the plunger moves toward the ferrous target causing the ring magnet to move from the first position to the second position, and the reed switch to move from an open state to a closed state.
