A structure of a vehicle disclosed herein may include: a windshield; an instrument panel located below the windshield; in-vehicle equipment disposed such that the in-vehicle equipment projects upward above an upper surface of the instrument panel and is fixed to the instrument panel; and an impact relieving mechanism configured to, when a rearward and downward collision load is applied to the in-vehicle equipment, relieve the collision load by moving the in-vehicle equipment rearward and downward.

A housing mounting assembly adapted to connect to a seat in a vehicle. The mounting assembly may have a panel disposed within the housing. The housing mounting assembly may have a flap attached to the housing and at least one strap attached between the housing and the flap. The housing mounting assembly may have a securing device attached to the flap to secure the mounting assembly to the seat in the vehicle.

A vehicle sensor mounting system includes a tubular bridge structure that spans across the width of the vehicle roof and attaches to existing rooftop anchor points. The mounting system allows camera sensors to have full field-of-view coverage while being as close to the vehicle body as possible to reduce parallax, and not being occluded by the vehicle body or mounting system. The mounting system also allows the cameras to be co-axial with a LiDAR sensor and to minimize parallax. The mounting system has a minimum natural frequency that reduces road vibrations, allowing the sensors to remain in a stable mounting position and minimizes the motion of the sensors relative to the vehicle chassis to reduce misalignment errors in the sensor data. The mounting system includes a front and rear assembly. The rear assembly includes a cable hub assembly that provides a single ingress/egress point for a multi-conductor sensor cable.

An all-terrain vehicle is provided. The all-terrain vehicle includes a vehicle frame unit. A steering mechanism is rotatably mounted to a front side of the vehicle frame unit. Front wheels are rotatable mounted to a lower side of the steering mechanism as being arranged pairwise as a left-side one and a right-side one and are controllable by the steering mechanism. The all-terrain vehicle includes a vehicle cover unit covering a periphery of the vehicle frame unit. The vehicle cover unit includes a front vehicle cover section. An open receiving space is formed between a top side of the front wheels and the front vehicle cover section. An inertial sensor is arranged in the open receiving space. As such, mounting and servicing the inertial sensor can be carried out without removing the front vehicle cover section or other parts, and thus, mounting and servicing of the inertial sensor is made easy.

The technology employs a contrasting color scheme on different surfaces for sensor housing assemblies mounted on exterior parts of a vehicle that is configured to operate in an autonomous driving mode. Lighter and darker colors may be chosen on different surfaces according to a thermal budget for a given sensor housing assembly, due to the different types of sensors arranged along particular surfaces, or to provide color contrast for different regions of the assembly. For instance, differing colors such as black/white or blue/white, and different finishes such as matte or glossy, may be selected to enhance certain attributes or to minimize issues associated with a sensor housing assembly.

The present invention provides an imaging device with which it is possible to easily mount/remove an imaging unit by a simpler operation than in the past when mounting/removing the imaging unit to and from a bracket, and to reduce more work space than in the past. In the present invention, an imaging unit 10 has a plurality of supported parts 15 that are supported by the bracket 20. The bracket 20 has a plurality of support structures 24 for supporting the plurality of supported parts 15. The support structures 24 have a receiving port 24a opened toward the rear of a mounting direction DF for receiving the supported parts 15 in the mounting direction DF and a support 24b for supporting the supported parts 15 on the forward side in the mounting direction DF of the receiving port 24a from a support direction DS that intersects the mounting direction DF.

A paving machine includes an implement, an elongated structure, a sensor arrangement, and one or more breakaway couplers. The implement modifies a surface during a movement of the paving machine. The elongated structure is coupled to a side portion of the paving machine and extends along a direction of the movement. The sensor arrangement includes sensor units arranged sequentially along the elongated structure. The breakaway couplers correspondingly normally retain the sensor units to the elongated structure. Each breakaway coupler includes a mounting structure and a retainer unit. The mounting structure is secured to one of the elongated structure or a corresponding sensor unit, while the retainer unit retains the other of the elongated structure or the corresponding sensor unit to the mounting structure by a retention force, which is adjustable.
