Durability of a planetary gear set can be enhanced and noise can be reduced by utilizing a power transmitting apparatus for a hybrid vehicle that supports a planetary gear set in an axial direction and a perpendicular direction. In addition, because a parking gear is disposed on a second shaft, torque can be minimized when the vehicle is parked on a slanted road.

The apparatus has a determining portion to determine whether a driver requires non-rapid and rapid acceleration of a vehicle based on an accelerating number. A setting portion increases a target input speed which is higher than actual input speed and holds the speed on a rapid shifting period. The speed is reduced to initial value of another transient target input speed and back to original speed ...

The method involves inserting a link to each item of information to be copied, of a global base (16), in a manual template file (50).

The mast ahs a rigid lower section (1) associated to a base (6) placed on the ground, and a rigid upper section (2) including an anchoring turret (8) for attaching or winding a cable (7) fixing and tensioning a cloth panel. The upper and lower sections are assembled to each other by an elastic flexion device (3) so as to align the sections when the upper section is bent by a tensile strength appli...

Systems and methods for remotely causing a request for authorization to charge a card, that is otherwise active, to be denied. In one embodiment, an access controller receives a call from a card holder and analyzes ANI and DNIS data received during call setup for the call to select a card account and an action (e.g., turn account OFF) to be taken with respect to the card account. The access contro...

The device has a database (14) to store information of a standard barcode (8) e.g. EAN13 code, assigned to each packed product (7) and historic information of the product. A case (10) has a reader to read the barcode having thirteen digits, and to search related information from the database to determine a price to be displayed. Initial two digits identify code type and intermediate ten digits is ...

The device has a locking mechanism cooperating with a connecting bar (16). An opening system has a lever (38) that is articulated by its front articulation end on a base (12). The system has a slide (44) whose rear end is connected to a head (30). The slide directly controls the opening of the mechanism when it is handled downwards. The lever controls the opening of the mechanism through the slide...
