Garnish Structure for Lower Door
A garnish structure includes a garnish unit configured to be located on a surface of a lower door and to perform impact absorption and load support, wherein the garnish unit includes a first layer region configured to absorb energy, and a second layer region configured to withstand a collision. The garnish unit further includes a garnish panel forming an outer surface of the garnish unit, a first impact member formed inside the garnish panel, an absorbing member located in the first layer region, a spring member located inside the absorbing member, a second impact member formed inside the first impact member, and a damping spring located in the second layer region.
Autonomous automobile
A vehicle including power means configured to allow the entire upper surface of the floor structure to be available for the seating and cargo means. The seating and cargo means includes a first rearwardly facing seat assembly and a second confronting forwardly facing seat assembly. The seatback portions are pivotal downwardly into overlying relation to the cushion portions and into horizontal alignment with first and second cargo surfaces defined by the upper face of the floor structure between the front of the vehicle and the first seat assembly, and between the rear of the vehicle and the second seat assembly. The cushion portions of the seat assemblies are longitudinally spaced and the seatback portions have a height sufficient to fill the space to form a continuous cargo surface extending from the front of the vehicle to the rear of the vehicle. Gates in the front and rear ends of the vehicle allow front and rear access to the cargo surface.
CAB DOOR
Disclosed are front entry cabs, and power machines with front entry cabs, having a door that is moveable between opened and closed positions. In the opened position, the door is positioned within an operator compartment of the cab above the operator seat and below a top of the cab. A linkage system defines the travel path of the door between closed and opened positions. The linkage system is configured to minimize interference with operator visibility.

DISPLAY INTEGRATED INTO DOOR
Power machines and loaders having doors with an integrated display that allows the display of information, such as gauges, user inputs, mapped obstacles, boundaries, etc., that allows the operator of the machine to see the displayed information closer to the line of sight with the work area. The display can show augmented reality information about a worksite.

Deformable automotive noise and vibration seal for pedestrian protection
A system for noise and vibration sealing of a vehicle while providing reduced impact resistance includes a block of compressible material positionable between a vehicle hood and a support structure of the vehicle. The block of compressible material may include an attachment surface configured to be secured to a portion of the vehicle and an impact surface formed opposite the attachment surface. The impact surface may be positioned in the vehicle to be contacted by the hood or support structure during an impact event. An exterior surface may extend between the attachment surface and the impact surface. A cavity may be formed in the exterior surface. The cavity may have a first inner surface and a second inner surface opposing the first inner surface, and may be shaped to accommodate crushing of the block of compressible material during the impact event.
Unmanned carrier for carrying urban manned vehicles
One embodiment of an unmanned carrier for carrying urban manned vehicles includes a computer, a motorized lift, an autonomous-driving control system, and a safety frame. The computer synchronizes pick-up of manned vehicles by the unmanned carrier; wherein each manned vehicle is an autonomous on-road vehicle that transports one or more occupants in a compartment, is authorized by law to drive in a residential neighborhood, and is unauthorized by law to drive on the highway on its own because it is not safe enough for highway speed. The motorized lift enables the manned vehicles to get on and get off the unmanned carrier without human intervention. The autonomous-driving control system navigates the unmanned carrier autonomously on a highway. And the safety frame protects the occupants who sit in the carried manned vehicles during a collision at highway speed.
OPERATOR CAB WITH ACTUATED FRONT DOOR
An operator cab is mounted on a chassis of a mobile work vehicle. The cab includes a back panel, a pair of opposing side panels, and a roof panel. The side panels and the roof panel each have a first edge proximate the back panel and a second edge opposite the first edge, the second edges defining a door opening. A door is proximate the door opening and movable to a closed position defining a front barrier or an open position alongside the cab. A drive system is connected to the door to move the door about a pivot point near the door opening to an open position from the closed position to allow for an operator to ingress and egress through the door opening. The door when in the open position being secured between a boom arm of the mobile work vehicle and alongside the at least one of the side panel of the cab.
