A computer includes a processor and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor to receive data indicating that an electric vehicle is in an enclosed space; in response to receiving the data, instruct window actuators of the electric vehicle to open windows of the electric vehicle; and in response to receiving the data, instruct a heater of the electric vehicle to generate heat.

A releasable hinge assembly includes a mounting bracket, a hinge bracket, and at least one spring biased locking mechanism. The mounting bracket having a first mounting plate and two pin tabs extending therefrom, at least one of the pin tabs defining a through hole therein. The hinge bracket having a second mounting plate and a knuckle extending therefrom. The knuckle defining at least one cutout that is being L-shaped. The at least one spring biased locking mechanism having a pawl arm and a pin. The at least one locking mechanism positioned within the a channel of the hinge bracket with the pawl arm positioned within and projecting from the at least one cutout. The pawl arm configured to move within the at least one cutout to push the pin beyond a second end of the knuckle and through a through hole defined in the pin tab of the mounting bracket.

An open-close body controller includes a control unit that controls a motor unit to open and close an open-close body arranged on a vehicle door between a fully closed position and a fully open position. The control unit executes a normal temperature voltage control that adjusts a speed of the open-close body by controlling a voltage supplied to the motor unit during a closing action when an outside temperature is a normal temperature and supplies the motor unit with a higher voltage than that in the normal temperature voltage control when the outside temperature is deviated from the normal temperature.

The present invention provides a motor driver and a motor driving system capable of suppressing power consumption when a motor is in a brake state. The motor driver of the present invention includes: a half-bridge power output section, including a high-side transistor and a low-side transistor; a high-side driving circuit, driving the high-side transistor; and a control portion. When switching to a brake mode, the low-side transistor is turned on and the control portion turns off the high-side driving circuit.

A motor control system for controlling a brushless electric motor of a power operated actuator of a closure panel of a vehicle and method of operating the control system are provided. The control system includes a vector control system configured to receive a torque current based on a measured angular velocity of the motor and current of each of the phases and determine corresponding stationary reference frame voltages. The vector control system outputs pulse width modulation signals to the motor. A vector torque current limiter couples to the vector control system and the motor and is configured to determine the torque current drawn, receive the measured angular velocity and determine whether there is a reduction of the measured angular velocity and detects a pinch event and reduces the torque current in response to determining there is a reduction of the measured angular velocity of the brushless electric motor.

A window regulator including a panel and a guide rail. The panel may define a speaker aperture that may be configured to receive at least a portion of the speaker. The guide rail may be integrally formed to the panel and configured to carry a slider. The slider may be configured to move along the guide rail to move the window between a first position and a second position. The guide rail may include an aperture-region portion that may extend across the speaker aperture in a first direction. The aperture-region portion may include a first sidewall and a second sidewall that may each extend in a second direction that may be substantially orthogonal to the first direction.

A control device includes one operation knob which includes operation regions set so as to correspond to plural windows of a vehicle and on which a push-down operation and a pull-up operation can be performed, a contact detection unit to detect contact of a user with plural operation regions, an operation detection unit to detect the push-down operation and the pull-up operation performed on the operation knob, and a control unit that is configured, based on a predetermined operation performed on at least one of the plural operation regions and also based on the push-down operation or the pull-up operation performed on the operation knob, to determine plural windows to be opened or closed and control a power window device to drive the plural determined windows.

Methods and systems may provide for technology to initiate an injection of ozone for a predetermined cycle time into a cabin of a vehicle via a heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) subsystem of the vehicle only when the vehicle is in a locked state and a window-closed state, the vehicle cabin is vacant, and the vehicle is in park. The technology may also cease the injection of the ozone into the cabin in response to an override request detected before expiration of the predetermined cycle time and maintains the vehicle in the locked state for a predetermined wait time after the injection of the ozone into the cabin is ceased.

An assembly of an adjustment device of a motor vehicle includes a support plate, on which at least one guide rail is disposed. A driver is movably guided on the guide rail, for a functionalized windowpane, in particular an electrically switchable or controllable windowpane. A flexible component is provided for guiding a cable which is connected or can be connected to the functionalized windowpane, in particular for conducting a current and/or for controlling the functionalized windowpane. A window opener of a motor vehicle having the assembly is also provided.

A mobile body control system includes: a window open or close instruction recognition unit that recognizes an open or close instruction of a window provided to a mobile body in accordance with a voice operation or an operation of a mobile terminal performed by a passenger on the mobile body; a window control unit that executes a window open or close control for opening or closing the window, when the open or close instruction of the window is recognized; and a window operation restriction unit that executes at least one of window operation inhibition processing for inhibiting execution of the window open or close control by the window control unit in accordance with an operation of a switch provided to the mobile body, and window operation stop processing for stopping the window being operated by the window open or close control in accordance with an operation of the switch.
