An autonomous transport robot for transporting a payload, the autonomous transport robot including a drive section assembly having at least one motor and a pair of drive wheels coupled to the motor, a frame configured to support a payload, a transfer arm connected to the frame and configured for the autonomous transfer of payload to and from the frame, and a suspension system movably connecting the drive section assembly and the frame allowing relative movement between the frame and the drive section assembly.

In an actuating assembly (16) for a control element in a vehicle, in particular for a steering column stalk (10), having an actuating element (18) that is adapted to be shifted in an actuating direction (B), and a seat (20) in which the actuating element (18) is supported for being shifted hi the actuating direction (B) between a basic position and at least one actuation position, at least one separate spring element (28) is provided between the seat (20) and the actuating element (18) and presses on the actuating element (18) by a spring force (F) acting substantially transversely to the actuating direction (B).

A stator assembly includes a case including an arcuate wall having an aperture with circumferentially spaced first lateral surfaces. A stator vane has an outer platform with a notch. An anti-rotation lug has a base that is received in the notch and a boss extends from the base. The boss is received in the aperture. The boss has second lateral surfaces that engage the first lateral surfaces in an interference fit relationship.

The invention relates to a locking device for locking a movable component, in particular a superposition drive of a superimposed steering system, comprising a locking element reciprocatable between a locking position and a release position, which in the locking position cooperates with a movable component located outside a housing of the locking device; and a damping device which damps a movement of the locking element into the release position. The damping device comprises a damping element with a damping portion which is located outside the housing of the locking device. The locking device is designed such that during a movement of the locking element into the release position an end of the locking element moves out of the housing of the locking device and impinges on the damping portion.

An anti-rotation device includes a main body pin and a retaining element coupled to the main body pin. The retaining element includes an attachment body and at least one flexible member extending therefrom, and the at least one flexible member is configured to compress toward the attachment body when the retaining element is inserted into an anti-rotation pin opening of a steering column jacket.

An electrical steering column lock for an automotive vehicle capable of locking and unlocking the steering column is disclosed. The electrical steering column lock includes a bolt intended to move for locking and for unlocking the steering column, a cam wheel intended to rotate according a first rotation axis and to cooperate with the bolt for controlling the bolt movement, and an assembly for determining the rotational position of the cam wheel while the cam wheel is rotating.

An electrical steering column lock for an automotive vehicle capable of locking and unlocking the steering column is disclosed. The electrical steering column lock includes a bolt intended to move for locking and for unlocking the steering column, a cam wheel intended to rotate according a first rotation axis and to cooperate with the bolt for controlling the bolt movement, a gear intended to rotate according to a second rotation axis and disposed so as to drive the rotation of the cam wheel, where the cam wheel and the gear are placed sensibly in a common plane have parallel rotation axes which are also parallel to the movement of the bolt.

The invention relates to an actuating device comprising: a first element (7), a second element (8) able to move translationally with respect to the first element (7), and a locking device (6) comprising a catch (18, 20) able to move between a deployed position and a retracted position, the catch (18-20) being positioned with respect to the first element (7) in such a way that when the catch (18-20) is in a deployed position, the catch (18-20) allows the second element (8) to move with respect to the first element (7) in a first range of movement (A) and prevents the second element (8) from moving with respect to the first element (7) in a second range of movement (B), and when the catch (18-20) is in the retracted position, the catch (18-20) allows the second element to move with respect to the first element (7) in the second range of movement (B). This device is particularly suited to allowing actuation of a thrust reverser system and of a system that regulates air flow through an aircraft propulsion unit.

In an embodiment of the invention, an end of travel stop is provided for a steering gear assembly having a housing, a rack, and a tie rod. The end of travel stop includes an annular body comprising a plurality of segments defining a first crenellated side of the annular body and a second crenellated side of the annular body. The stop is circumscribed over the rack and is oriented between the housing and the tie rod, and is configured to absorb an impact force transferred through the tie rod and to prevent overtravel of the rack.

A foldable chair includes a main stick, a fold unit and a retention unit. The fold unit includes a middle slider member movable along the main stick between lower and upper positions, and a foldable support leg connected to the middle slider members. The retention unit is configured to prevent fold operation of the support leg when the middle slider member is at the lower position, and to permit the fold operation of the support leg when the middle slider member is at the upper position.
