A patient transport apparatus includes a height-adjustable assembly having a longitudinal axis. The apparatus includes a brake cable. The brake cable includes an elongate portion extending along the height-adjustable assembly and includes a slack portion. The apparatus includes a brake cable housing coupled to and axially offset from the height-adjustable assembly. The slack portion of the brake cable is enclosed within a hollow interior of the brake cable housing.

A hydraulic/mechanical braking system for a vehicle comprises a cam keyed onto a transmission shaft or a trailing wheel and at least two hydraulic cylinder assemblies including a cam follower. A hydraulic circuit (C) connects the hydraulic cylinder assemblies together. A master brake valve controls the flow of fluid in the circuit. Actuation of the master brake valve obstructs the flow of fluid and hence the reciprocation of the hydraulic cylinder assemblies, forcing the cam following against the cam to resist rotation. The cam is formed with two opposing flat faces in order to provide an anti-lock braking system (ABS).

A land vehicle includes a frame structure, a plurality of wheels, and an impact management system. The frame structure includes an operator cage that at least partially defines an operator cabin and a rear compartment positioned rearward of the operator cage in a longitudinal direction. The frame structure includes a pair of rails that each extends in the longitudinal direction from a first end arranged adjacent a pair of front wheels to a second end arranged adjacent a pair of rear wheels. The plurality of wheels are supported by the frame structure. The plurality of wheels includes the pair of front wheels and the pair of rear wheels. The pair of front wheels are positioned forward of the pair of rear wheels in the longitudinal direction.

The present disclosure relates to a resource allocation procedure for allocating time-frequency radio resources by a scheduler in a mobile communication system. A plurality of numerology schemes are defined, each partitioning a plurality of radio resources of the mobile communication system into resource scheduling units in a different manner. A reference resource set is defined per numerology scheme, each being associated to a set of radio resources usable for being allocated according to the respective numerology scheme. The reference resource set of at least one numerology scheme overlaps with the reference resource set of at least another numerology scheme in the frequency and/or time domain. The resource allocation procedure is performed for allocating radio resources to one or more user terminals according to the numerology schemes. The resource allocation procedure is performed for each numerology scheme based on a scheduling time interval defined for the respective numerology scheme.

A speed-command generating unit incorporated with an electric vehicle having a throttle module, a mechanical brake and a motor is disclosed and includes: a computation module for generating a computation value of a speed-command according to a throttle operating signal from the throttle module, a sensing module for detecting an activated status of the mechanical brake, a selecting module for providing a braking approach selecting signal, a trimming module for setting a trimming flag according to the activated status of the mechanical brake of last cycle, and a switching module connected therewith. The switching module generates different output values of the speed-command for the motor according to different foundations depending on the content of the trimming flag when the mechanical brake is inactivated in this cycle, and generates the output value according to the content of the braking approach selecting signal when the mechanical brake is activated in this cycle.

A vehicle includes friction brakes, an electronic park brake system, and controllers. The controllers, responsive to the vehicle coming to a stop, and the vehicle being on plug, a driver door of the vehicle being open, or a driver seatbelt being unbuckled, issue a standstill friction brake request for the friction brakes and an electronic park brake request for the electronic park brake system. The controllers also, responsive to engagement of the electronic park brake system, discontinue the issue of the standstill friction brake request.
