A shutter member that has a shutter with a substantially rigid wall, which has a substantially arc-shaped a side profile and a hole that is adapted to be engaged by a motor vehicle control lever. The substantially rigid wall is supported by a fastening device, fixing the shutter member to the control lever. The shutter is provided with a tab, which defines a longitudinal extension of the substantially rigid wall and is elastically flexible.

A bellows comprises a unitary bellows body extending from a first end to a second end in an axial direction. The stiffness of the bellows body varies in at least an axial direction.

A one-way clutch includes one or more annular members and one or more annular elastic bodies. The annular member is attached to a side plate of an outer race in the axial outer side of a seal member and includes a facing surface that faces an outer circumferential surface of an inner race with a gap and a recess formed in the facing surface. The annular elastic body is fitted into the outer circumferential surface of the inner surface corresponding to the recess so as to be in close contact therewith.

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle shifter assembly having a retainer ring between a housing and an instrument panel or console. The retainer ring includes a fluid diverter system configured to guide fluid away from predetermined shifter assembly component(s).

A FOD cover system including an elongated slider made of a non-stretchable, flexible material, a first roller, a second roller, and a roller support. The slider has a first end and a second end opposite the first end, and the slider is slidable between two spaced-apart portions of a control housing and mechanically actuatable fore and aft by a lever extending through an opening of the slider. The lever operates control components within the control housing. The first roller is fixed to the first end of the elongated slider and the second roller is fixed to the second end of the elongated slider. The first roller and the second roller are rotatably attached to a roller support. The first roller and the second roller may also each be spring biased in opposing rotational directions, maintaining the elongated slider taut during actuation thereof.
