An automatic throttle for a hydrostatic transmission having a forward pedal and a reverse pedal. Each pedal actuates a swash plate on a hydraulic pump for forward and reverse travel. A first bell crank and a second bell crank are connected to the forward pedal and the reverse pedal respectively. Each bell crank may pull a Bowden cable connected to an engine throttle to increase engine speed when either of the pedals is depressed.

A vehicle pedal structure includes an accelerator pedal swingable about a swing shaft inclined with respect to a width direction in a top view of a traveling vehicle, and a mechanical link to convert swinging of the accelerator pedal into sliding in a front-rear direction. The link includes a first link structure and a second link structure that include first and second swings and first and second rods. Each of a first end and a second end of the second rod is restricted from sliding along an entering-exiting direction. In the link structures, in the top view, a second angle of a second swing shaft with respect to the width direction is smaller than a first angle of a first swing shaft with respect to the width direction.

A bicycle operation device includes a clamp, an operation unit and a wireless communicator. The clamp is attachable to a handlebar of a bicycle. The operation unit includes a housing having an upper housing portion and a lower housing portion. The upper housing portion is located above the lower housing portion in a state in which the bicycle operation device is attached to the handlebar. The wireless communicator is configured to communicate with a bicycle component. The wireless communicator is provided on the upper housing portion.

An example robot actuator utilizing a differential pulley transmission is provided. As an example, a differential pulley actuator includes input drive gears for coupling to a motor and timing pulleys coupled together through the input drive gears. Rotation of the input drive gears causes rotation of a first timing pulley in a first direction and rotation of a second timing pulley in a second direction opposite the first direction. The actuator also includes multiple idler pulleys suspended between the timing pulleys and the output pulley, and the multiple idler pulleys are held in tension between the timing pulleys via a first tension-bearing element and the output pulley via a second tension-bearing element. The first tension-bearing element loops around the timing pulleys and the multiple idler pulleys. The output pulley couple to a load, and is configured to apply motion of the multiple idler pulleys to the load.

An actuator comprising two devices each comprising an out-of-plane deformable element, said deformable element comprising a first fixed end anchored on a substrate and a second free end relative to the substrate, said device also comprising means to guide the second free end in in-plane translation along a first direction, the first deformable element being capable of deforming out-of-plane through application of a stimulus so that the second free end draws close to the first fixed end following in-plane translational movement. The actuator also comprises an element mobile in rotation about an axis orthogonal to the plane and mechanically linked to the free ends of the deformable elements, and a translationally mobile element mechanically linked to the rotationally mobile element.
