A work vehicle includes a link mechanism to be equipped with a work implement, a drive mechanism to drive the link mechanism to ascend and descend the work implement, and a control lever is to be operated to ascend and descend the work implement. The work vehicle includes a first displacement transmission mechanism, an additional operational mechanism, and a second displacement transmission mechanism. The first displacement transmission mechanism links the drive mechanism and the control lever to transmit a displacement of the control lever to the drive mechanism. The additional operational mechanism is configured to operate the control lever at a location apart from a position of the control lever. The second displacement transmission mechanism mechanically links the additional operational mechanism and the control lever without interposing the first displacement transmission mechanism to shift the control lever in accordance with an operation of the additional operational mechanism.

A forestry machine includes a ground propulsion apparatus, a vehicle body supported by the ground propulsion apparatus, an operator seat disposed on the vehicle body, a first control lever operable by an operator sitting in the operator seat, a work implement including a saw, and a control circuit. The control circuit includes a first user input disposed on the first control lever. The first user input is operatively coupled to the work implement. Power to the saw is engaged upon the first user input being operated in combination with another operation. A method of operating a forestry machine includes operating a first user input disposed on the first control lever. Power is engaged to the saw in response to the first user input being operated in combination with another operation.

A control unit for a medical device that includes a palm interface engageable by a palm of a hand and a restraint capable of elastically deforming to apply a restraining force to the dorsum of the hand and a finger interface engageable by one or more fingers of said hand.

A remote braking assembly for facilitating a passenger to apply brakes in a vehicle includes a roller unit that is coupled to a floorboard of a vehicle. The roller unit is aligned with a brake pedal of the vehicle. A handle is movably positioned within the vehicle. The handle is directed toward a passenger seat of the vehicle such that the handle is accessible to a passenger in the vehicle. A cable is coupled between the handle and the brake pedal of the vehicle. The cable draws the brake pedal into a depressed position when the handle is urged into a braking position. In this way the passenger can remotely apply the brakes of the vehicle.

A power-driven working device including: a working tool; a drive unit configured to drive the working tool; a control unit configured to control an output power of the drive unit; and an operating unit including a first switch and a second switch, is provided. The control unit includes a cruise control unit configured to execute cruise control to maintain the output power of the drive unit constant when a cruise switch is activated, and an output power adjustment unit configured to increase the output power of the drive unit and to continue the cruise control when the first switch is activated during the cruise control, and to decrease the output power of the drive unit and to continue the cruise control when the second switch is activated during the cruise control.

A mechanical connection is provided for a microelectromechanical and/or nanoelectromechanical device for measuring a variation in pressure. The device includes a fixed component extending in a main plane, a mobile component to move or deform in an out-of-plane direction under effect of a variation in pressure, and a detector of movement or deformation having at least one mobile element. The mechanical connection includes: a lever arm; a first connection connecting the mobile component to a first end of the lever arm, the first connection transmitting out-of-plane movement of the mobile component to the first end of the lever arm while allowing out-of-plane rotation of the lever arm about a direction of rotation; a second connection connected to the second end of the lever arm to allow mainly an out-of-plane rotation of the lever arm about an axis of rotation extending in the direction of rotation; a third connection connecting the lever arm to the detector at a given distance from the axis of rotation in the out-of-plane direction, the third connection being designed to convert the rotation of the lever arm about the axis of rotation into a translation in the plane of the at least one mobile element in a direction of translation.

A safety switch device includes a first support member and a second support member which are formed so as to secure a mobile terminal, and a grip part to be grasped by an operator's hand. The safety switch device includes an enable switch for transmitting a signal for permitting a robot to operate, and an emergency stop button for transmitting a signal for stopping the robot. The first support member and the second support member are formed so as to secure a plurality of types of mobile terminals having different sizes. The grip part is disposed at the center part of the shape of the back surface of the mobile terminal, which corresponds to the position of the center of gravity of the mobile terminal.

Disclosed is a three-branched six-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism with curved sliding pairs, which includes a base, a moving platform, and three identical kinetic branches. The kinetic branches are radially and evenly distributed and arranged between the base and the moving platform. Each kinetic branch includes a first curved link assembly, a first motor, and a support link. One end of the support link is hinged to the moving platform. One end of the first curved link assembly is hinged to the support link. The first motor is disposed on the base and is configured for driving the first curved link assembly to rotate, where an arc length of the first curved link assembly is changed as the first curved link assembly is driven to rotate.
