Shift device

In a shift device, the placement of magnets relative to sensors can be changed by rotating a ball shaft of a lever. The sensors detect magnetic fields generated by the magnets in order to detect a shift position of the lever. Shields suppress a magnetic field outside the ball shaft from reaching the sensors. The magnets, the sensors, and the shields are disposed on the ball shaft. This enables a reduction in the size of the shift device.

Manipulating device

A manipulating device is provided, which includes a first parallel linkage mechanism having a pair of first links and a pair of second links, a second parallel linkage mechanism having a pair of third links and a pair of fourth links, and a support member supporting one of the third links. The first parallel linkage mechanism and the second parallel linkage mechanism commonly use one of the second links and one of the fourth links and an armrest member to which a manipulating member is attached at a tip-end part thereof is disposed in a lower-end part of the first parallel linkage mechanism.

Drainage assembly

A user interface includes a front panel that has an exterior surface and an interior surface. A flange outwardly extends from the exterior surface and defines a notch. A receiving body extends from the interior surface of the front panel that is proximate the flange. A receiving body has an angled edge and defines a drainage channel that extends through a portion of the notch that is defined by the flange.

Lever input device

A lever input device includes: a lever which is tiltable in a first direction orthogonal to an axis of the lever about the axis due to an operation by a user; a swing arm which engages with the lever and swings along with the tilting of the lever in the first direction and amplifies a displacement amount of the lever at the time of tilting; and a magnet body mounted on the swing arm, wherein the swing arm is elongated along a second direction which is a direction along the axis, is configured such that distance (D13) between a swing fulcrum and a mounting portion of the magnet body becomes larger than distance (D12) between the swing fulcrum of the swing arm and an engaging portion of the swing arm with the lever.

An input device includes: a detector that detects an operation state of an operation object on an operation surface; a controller that performs input to a predetermined instrument; and a driver that vibrates the operation surface. The predetermined instrument includes a display. Multiple operation buttons are displayed on the display. An operation coordinate position of the operation object is associated with a display coordinate position of each of the multiple operation buttons. The controller causes the driver to generate a predetermined vibration on an area of the operation surface corresponding to an intermediate area between a first operation button and a second operation button. The controller corrects a first display coordinate position to a second display coordinate position or prohibit an attraction control.
