Foldable child enclosure

A foldable enclosure apparatus, for a child, including an upper assembly forming an upper portion of an enclosure, and a base assembly connected to the upper assembly and forming a lower portion of the enclosure that supports a base pad. The upper assembly and base assembly are coupled by a side structure of posts, and the upper assembly, base assembly, and side structure are configured so that the foldable enclosure apparatus folds and unfolds effecting closing and opening of the foldable enclosure apparatus between closed and open positions. A flexible frame bassinet is included in the upper portion and dependent from the upper assembly. A changing platform, separate and distinct from the bassinet, is connected to the upper assembly. The changing platform is pivotally mounted to the upper assembly with mounts separate and distinct from mounting of the bassinet, the mounts include a hinged coupling and snap on clamps.

Trainable modular robotic apparatus and methods

Apparatus and methods for a modular robotic device with artificial intelligence that is receptive to training controls. In one implementation, modular robotic device architecture may be used to provide all or most high cost components in an autonomy module that is separate from the robotic body. The autonomy module may comprise controller, power, actuators that may be connected to controllable elements of the robotic body. The controller may position limbs of the toy in a target position. A user may utilize haptic training approach in order to enable the robotic toy to perform target action(s). Modular configuration of the disclosure enables users to replace one toy body (e.g., the bear) with another (e.g., a giraffe) while using hardware provided by the autonomy module. Modular architecture may enable users to purchase a single AM for use with multiple robotic bodies, thereby reducing the overall cost of ownership.

Multifunctional electronic gear shift lever for simultaneous manipulation and method of controlling the same
09933068 · 2018-04-03 · ·

A multifunctional electronic gear shift lever for simultaneous manipulation includes a cylindrical lever rotatably inserted into a support which is disposed in a center fascia surface or a console surface of a vehicle and having an entrance opening that penetrates the cylindrical lever in a longitudinal direction. A start button is disposed at a lower side of the entrance opening, connected with a controller via a spring, and moving in a vertical direction. A display is disposed on the center fascia surface or the console surface, and displays a gear shift stage of the vehicle and a state of the vehicle. The gear shift stage is changeable by rotating the cylindrical lever while simultaneously starting an engine of the vehicle by operating the start button.

Actuation device for a vehicle seat, and vehicle seat

An actuation device (100), for a vehicle seat, has at least one locking mechanism (23). The actuation device (100) has an actuation handle (152), which is mounted on a housing (110), for unlocking the at least one locking mechanism (23). A connection device (200) couples the actuation device (100) to the at least one locking mechanism (23). The actuation handle (152) can be actuated in two different directions and the at least one locking mechanism (23) can be unlocked by actuating the actuation handle (152) in one direction and by actuating the actuation handle (152) in the other direction. As a result, an operating direction of the actuation handle (152) that is oriented in the movement direction of the vehicle seat is available for each movement direction of the vehicle seat. A vehicle seat (1) is also provided having at least one locking mechanism (23) and an actuation device (100).
