A guide assembly includes a guide configured to be arranged on a stationary furniture part, a guide device configured to be connected to the movable furniture part, the guide device being displaceable relative to the guide, and an adjustment device for adjusting the guide relative to the stationary furniture part. The adjustment device includes a mounting device configured to be fixed to the stationary furniture part and a coupling device configured to be coupled to the guide. The preferably pivotally supported actuating element is for adjusting the coupling device relative to the mounting device. A securing device is provided for fixing the guide device relative to the guide in a securing position, and the securing device includes a securing body integrated into the adjustment device.

A sliding door device for a vehicle includes a door, a lower arm including a first end portion connected to an internal side of the door and a second end portion provided to slide along a vehicle body rail provided on the vehicle body, a linear slider rotatably connected to the second end portion of the lower arm and provided to slide along a linear rail provided on the vehicle body, a slider assembly provided between the lower arm and the internal side of the door, and allowing the door to slide with respect to the first end portion of the lower arm, an arm latch located between the lower arm and the linear slider and fixing and releasing the sliding of the second end portion of the lower arm, and a door latch located between the lower arm and the slider assembly and allowing the slider assembly to be slidably fixed or released.

A balance shoe for a block and tackle window balance system includes an enlarged head portion housing a locking system configured to receive at least a portion of a pivot bar and releasably engage a jamb track. An elongate tail portion configured to couple at least partially within a U-shaped channel of the window balance system. A front face, the front face of the elongate tail portion being adjacent to a base wall of the U-shaped channel when the elongate tail portion is coupled therein. The front face including an elongate channel configured to allow passage of the pivot bar from the elongate tail portion towards the locking system. The balance shoe also including at least one protrusion extending from the front face of the elongate tail portion and disposed at least partially within the elongate channel.

Provided is a vehicle door structure that enables manufacturing cost reduction and weight reduction. A vehicle door structure 1 includes a lock mechanism 40. The lock mechanism 40 locks sliding of a slide door 6 in a fully closed position in which the slide door 6 closes a door opening portion 4 and in a fully open position in which the slide door 6 fully opens the door opening portion 4. The lock mechanism 40 includes the portion to be locked 50 provided to the guided body 18 and the locking portions 60 and 70 provided to the slide rail 17. The portion to be locked 50 protrudes toward the locking portions 60 and 70 and is locked by the locking portions 60 and 70 in the fully closed position or the fully open position.

A safety apparatus for a sliding door of a vehicle, including a lower rail including a mid stopper bracket; and an arm affixed at an external extremity to the sliding door and connected at an internal extremity to the lower rail, the arm including a mid stopper lever that is rotatable. In an open position, the mid stopper lever contacts the mid stopper bracket and contacts a tongue of the internal extremity of the arm to prevent the sliding door from exceeding a mid open position.

A vehicle sliding door brake assembly configured for attachment to a sliding door mechanism of a vehicle may include a brake member connectable to the sliding door mechanism and configured to rotate about a pivot point, the brake member comprising one or more brake portions for selectively engaging a track of the vehicle so as to provide a braking force. The brake portions may be configured to form an inertial counterweight that urges the brake member to move from a neutral position in which the brake portions are not engaged with the track to an engaged position in which one or more of the brake portions are engaged with the track when a sliding door of the vehicle is subjected to an acceleration exceeding a threshold.

A window stop device is adapted for limiting sliding movement of a window sash along a rail, and includes a restraining unit and a lever unit pivoting on the restraining unit between a locked position and an unlocked position. The restraining unit includes a pair of clamping members for flanking the rail. In the locked position, pressing arms of the lever unit press the clamping members, respectively, so that the clamping members clamp tightly the rail therebetween. In the unlocked position, the pressing arms are away from the clamping members so as to release the clamping members and permit sliding movement of the restraining unit along the rail.

Techniques for performing calibration and beamforming in a wireless communication system are described. In an aspect, a Node B may periodically perform calibration in each calibration interval with a set of UEs to obtain a calibration vector for the Node B. The Node B may apply the calibration vector to account for mismatches in the responses of the transmit and receive chains at the Node B. In another aspect, the Node B may perform beamforming to a UE by taking into account gain imbalance for multiple antennas at the UE. The Node B may determine a precoding matrix for beamforming by taking into account gain imbalance due to (i) different automatic gain control (AGC) gains for receive chains at the UE, (ii) different power amplifier (PA) gains for transmit chains at the UE, and/or (iii) different antenna gains for multiple antennas at the UE.

A balance shoe for a block and tackle window balance system includes an enlarged head portion housing a locking system configured to receive at least a portion of a pivot bar and releasably engage a jamb track. An elongate tail portion configured to couple at least partially within a U-shaped channel of the window balance system. A front face, the front face of the elongate tail portion being adjacent to a base wall of the U-shaped channel when the elongate tail portion is coupled therein. The front face including an elongate channel configured to allow passage of the pivot bar from the elongate tail portion towards the locking system. The balance shoe also including at least one protrusion extending from the front face of the elongate tail portion and disposed at least partially within the elongate channel.
