Vehicle mounted pedal box assemblies
A pedal box for a vehicle comprises at least one of a brake assembly, clutch assembly and throttle assembly each mounted on an axis supported by a first mounting plate; a master cylinder operatively connected to each said brake assembly and clutch assembly; wherein the pedal box assembly, includes at least one articulating mounting member which allows the pedal box assembly to accommodate a variety of vehicle floor geometries.
Spring members
In some examples, an apparatus can include a dial having a central axis and an inner channel defined by a first surface and a second surface, and a middle cover having a central axis, where the middle cover includes a first spring member and a second spring member, the first spring member and the second spring member are biased away from the central axis, and where when the dial is interfaced with the middle cover, the first spring member and the second spring member are to interface with the first surface and the second surface of the dial.
OPERATING MEMBER WITH MOVABLY MOUNTED ACTUATING PART AND IMPROVED GUIDANCE MECHANISM FOR THE PARALLEL GUIDANCE OF THE ACTUATING PART
The present disclosure relates to an operating member including: a support; an actuating part, which defines an actuating surface is mounted on the support by a mount to be movable relative to the support, by manual actuation against a resetting force, while carrying out an actuating movement from a rest position into a depressed position; a detector having at least one force sensor, wherein the detector is adapted to detect at least one position of the actuating part; wherein the mount includes a guidance mechanism having at least one pair of coupled levers, wherein the levers are each pivotably mounted on the support by a first pivot joint and on the actuating part—by a second pivot joint to cause a pivoting movement of the at least one pair of coupled levers by the actuating movement, wherein the guidance mechanism further includes at least one coupling rod.
Light source
A positional adjustment mechanism comprises a movable plate having first and second positioning actuators and a biasing member to bias the plate against the actuators. The movable plate has three flat surfaces facing the actuators and biasing member one of which is not substantially perpendicular to either of the other two. The biasing member ensures that the plate is held in contact with the actuators during adjustment. Also, an adjustable mount comprises a support and a fixed bar extending therefrom, an axially movable bar extending from the support and being axially movable relative thereto, and an element movably mounted to the fixed bar and movably mounted to the movable bar, the first element being selectively fixable relative to the fixed bar and selectively fixable relative to the movable bar. This arrangement allows a great degree of freedom in adjusting the position of the element as it can be selectively fixed to either or both of the fixed bar and movable bar.
VEHICLE MOUNTED PEDAL BOX ASSEMBLIES
A pedal box for a vehicle comprises at least one of a brake assembly, clutch assembly and throttle assembly each mounted on an axis supported by a first mounting plate; a master cylinder operatively connected to each said brake assembly and clutch assembly; wherein the pedal box assembly, includes at least one articulating mounting member which allows the pedal box assembly to accommodate a variety of vehicle floor geometries.
Electronic device
An electronic device includes a housing, and an operation member mounted on an inner surface of the housing. The housing includes a projection inwardly projected from a main surface of the housing and a wall erected on the main surface and having a light guide hole through which light passes. The operation member includes a holding part extending along the main surface from the projection to the wall, an erecting part erected from the holding part along the wall, a transmission part engaged with peripheral edges of the light guide hole while being fitted into the light guide hole and configured to transmit the light, and a receiving part configured to receive a user's operation from an outside of the housing.

Automated rolling-jack for drive-on lifts
Techniques are disclosed for methods and systems for automating the operation of a rolling-jack system for the servicing of automotive vehicles. The rolling-jack(s) travel/transport between the runways of a drive-on lift. They have automated/motorized transportation, engagement and jacking power mechanisms. These mechanisms are controlled by a guidance system which guides/controls them for a fully automated operation. A number of technologies may be used for this purpose, including sensors onboard the vehicles and/or the drive-on lifts and/or the rolling-jacks and/or the service center. A computer vision pipeline may also be utilized to assist in the process. Machine learning may also be employed. Techniques are also extended to autonomous vehicles as well as interfacing with fleet management software.
