The live well lid system may comprise a lid, a hinge, a motor, a lift arm, a lid track, and a local foot control. The live well lid system may be a system for covering and uncovering a live well of a boat by pivoting the lid of the live well responsive to input from the local foot control. The live well lid system may be adapted for a user to pivot the lid by operating the local foot control located proximate to the live well without diverting the attention of the user or requiring use of the user's hands. In some embodiments, a remote foot control may be a secondary control located at a remote location on the boat.

An automated door assembly for a dishwasher appliance includes a door frame pivotally mounted to the cabinet. An extension arm is mounted to and extends away from the door frame at approximately 90 degrees. A motor is mounted to the cabinet and is coupled to a distal end of the extension arm by a cable. The motor is selectively rotated to wind and unwind the cable to move the door frame between the closed position and the open position. A latch assembly engages a striker mounted on the door frame to initiate the opening and closing process.

A door actuator linkage includes a lever extending along a longitudinal axis, which merges into a linkage head with an offset, wherein the linkage head is formed for rotationally fixed mounting on an output shaft of a door actuator, wherein a free space for cable routing is formed by the offset. The free space is delimited by the linkage head and by an offset surface of the lever, wherein the lever protrudes up to an imaginary boundary surface, which is defined perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The offset surface is withdrawn partially from this boundary surface in order to expand the free space.

A motor-driven cover device for covering and releasing a charging port arranged on the vehicle body of an electric vehicle with respect to a vehicle exterior. A cover plate can cover the charging port in a closed state, a motor can be operatively connected to the cover plate for driving an opening movement and a closing movement of the cover plate. A force transmission device can transmit a motor power for carrying out the opening movement and closing movement of the cover plate. A guide element can guide the cover plate along a movement path during the opening and closing movement of the cover plate. The cover plate can be moved along the vehicle body in a motor-driven manner during the opening and closing movement, the vehicle body covering the cover plate at least partially with respect to the vehicle exterior in an open state of the cover device.

A braking device for a movable door leaf comprises an electric braking motor to damp movement of the door leaf; a motor shaft coupleable with an axis of rotation of the door leaf; and a control unit to control the electric braking motor. A generator provides power to the control unit. A continuously variable transmission unit between the axis of rotation of the door leaf and either the motor shaft of the electric braking motor or the separate generator is controlled by a mechanical control such that the motor shaft of the electric braking motor and/or the separate generator, can be driven at a rotational speed independent of the rotational speed of the rotational axle of the door leaf. Also included is a door closer, having a rotatable door closer axis, coupleable with a door leaf, cooperating with a mechanical energy storage device, and a correspondingly designed braking device.
