A footswitch for a medical instrument, with a housing, and with an elastically deformable suction cup arranged in the housing, where a negative pressure is generated in the suction cup by means of an evacuation device in order to secure the housing to a floor surface. In order to create a footswitch which is suitable for a medical instrument and which, while having a simple design and being easy to handle, ensures that the footswitch is secured in a fixed position on a floor surface. The suction cup is elastically extensible via the evacuation device in order to generate the negative pressure by enlargement of the volume enclosed by the suction cup.

Provided is a rotary knob rotational structure being less susceptible to the influence of variation in the dimensions of a rotary knob and reducing backlash of the rotary knob while providing a suitable magnitude of rotational resistance to the rotary knob. The rotary knob rotational structure includes an annular sheet 22 interposed between a device body and the rotary knob 14, an attachment member 24 configured to attach a fixed portion 22a of the annular sheet 22 to the device body with the fixed portion 22a being interposed between the attachment member 24 and the device body, and a body-side protrusion 26 contacting the annular sheet 22 on the outside of the fixed portion 22a in the radial direction of the annular sheet 22 to warp the annular sheet 22 toward the rotary knob 14.

An operation knob attachable onto a touch functional display panel includes an operation unit and a transmitting unit. The transmitting unit transmits, to the touch functional display panel, an operation performed to the operation unit at a position distant from a surface of the touch functional display panel.

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.

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.
