VEHICLE HAVING A SENSOR THAWING DEVICE USING HEATED AIR
A sensor thawing device, applied to a vehicle, discharges high-temperature air in a target direction, which is any one of left, right, down, and up directions, to an air discharge duct extended from a molding box coupled to a radiator grill, heats outside air introduced into a heat source line with a heat source including a heating wire to convert the outside air into high-temperature air, supplies the high-temperature air to an air distribution box, moves the air discharge duct in the target direction by forming the air pressure with a part of the high-temperature air by using an air pressure actuator, and supplies the air discharge duct with the remaining high-temperature air through a moving duct.
Bumper with selectively attachable light bars
Provided in this disclosure is a vehicle bumper with a main bumper having an elongated body portion. The elongated body portion has a first and second ends. Mounting flanges are formed integrally and perpendicularly around a respective periphery of the first and second ends. First and second detachable light bars are provided that each include a mating mounting flange formed around a periphery of each light bar, configured for abutting engagement with the respective mounting flange of the main bumper. A pair of slots are formed along a top edge of each mounting flange, into which a pair of bolts are slid from bore holes in the respective mating mounting flanges. A pair of bolt holes are formed along a bottom edge of each mounting flange into which a pair of bolts are slid through from bore holes in the mating mounting flanges.
LICENSE PLATE FRAMES INCLUDING IMPACT PROTECTION FEATURES
A license plate frame includes a base portion and a perimeter portion. The base portion includes a plurality of fastener openings, and each of the plurality of fastener openings is configured to receive a fastener for securing the license plate frame and a license plate to a vehicle. The perimeter portion is connected to and extends outwardly from the base portion. The perimeter portion includes a plurality of walls, the plurality of walls includes a first wall, and the first wall includes at least one compression opening.
Mounting system for mounting a number plate carrier on a vehicle component of a single-track motor vehicle
A mounting system for mounting a number plate carrier on a vehicle component of a single-track motor vehicle is provided. The vehicle component consists of a vehicle frame, a rear carrier component which is fixed to the vehicle frame. The number plate carrier has at least one securing hook, and the rear carrier component has at least one corresponding through-engagement opening. The number plate carrier can be hooked by the at least one securing hook into the respective through-engagement opening, aligned on the vehicle component in a predetermined position and pre-fixed securely in position. The number plate carrier can be fastened to the vehicle frame by a fastener spaced apart from the at least one securing hook along a longitudinal axis of the single-track motor vehicle.
Saddle riding vehicle
A saddle riding vehicle includes a swing arm swingably supported on a vehicle body, a rear wheel supported by the swing arm, and a rear fender covering the rear wheel from an upper side, the rear fender being supported rotatably. In the saddle riding vehicle, the rear fender is supported by the swing arm, and the rear fender is supported rotatably in a vehicle width direction by a rotating section.
MAGNETIC LICENSE PLATE HOLDER SYSTEM
Magnetic license plate holder systems are disclosed. Embodiments are directed to a magnetic license plate holder system including a license plate which includes a rear side and an opposing front side. The magnetic license plate holder system also includes a magnetic attachment system which includes: a rear attachment system configured to be positioned between a license plate holder and the rear side of the license plate, while facing the rear side of the license plate; and a front attachment system configured to be facing the front side of the license plate. The rear attachment system is configured to be releasably attached to the front attachment system. Each of the rear attachment system and the front attachment system includes either a magnet or a non-magnetic ferric material. At least one of the rear attachment system or the front attachment system comprises a magnet.
DIGITAL LICENSE PLATE FRAME
A digital license plate frame is described. The digital license plate frame includes a frame including an opening sized according to an identifying portion of a license plate positioned within the frame. The identifying portion includes a license plate number and a registration expiration date of a vehicle. The digital license plate frame also includes at least one display on the frame. The digital license plate frame further includes a controller configured to pair with an external device via wireless communications and control of the at least one display to display content specified via a client application executing on the external device.
Liquid Crystal Displays with Polarized Infrared Illumination
Systems and methods for IR readable transmissive and reflective displays are disclosed that do not suffer from a mirror-like appearance or undesirable dimming of the display due to sequential stacks of polarizers. The disclosed systems and methods use available IR LEDs in addition to, or in place of, visible light LEDs. An illuminator or integrator, which is a lightguide, is designed to maintain the polarization state of the light. The display can use a regular visible light, front polarizer and hence does not suffer from brightness reduction caused by an IR capable polarizer. A digital license plate application comprising a reflective liquid crystal display with a front light, which includes polarized IR illumination, is also disclosed.
Intelligent Vehicle Registration Plate
An intelligent vehicle registration plate mounted on a first vehicle comprises sensors, a non-transitory computer readable storage medium (NCRSM), and a processor. The sensors generate and transmit sensor data variables (SDV) based on detected parameters of a first vehicle. The data communications module (DCM) receives a request to locate a vehicle of interest. The analyzing module dynamically analyzes the SDV to identify a match between the first vehicle and the vehicle of interest and notifies the server based on the SDV exceeding a threshold. The DCM notifies the server of the location of the vehicle of interest. The system adds smart and secure functions for identification of registered vehicles, for example, early detection of severe accidents, detecting dangerous drifting on the streets, call and track feature, securing plate numbers from dismantling, applying basic analytics like number, type, and location of incidents within a certain period, etc.
METHOD AND DEVICE FOR FITTING A LICENSE PLATE, PREFERABLY A MOTOR VEHICLE LICENSE PLATE, WITH A DATA CARRIER, AND LICENSE PLATE
A method and a device with which a license plate can be produced in a favorable fashion. This is achieved by assigning a sticker to a license plate body of the license plate or to a metal plate in order to produce a multiplicity of license plate bodies. Very precise positioning of a data carrier in a receptacle of a license plate body of a license plate is particularly costly. Increased fabrication costs are to be expected owing to the necessary precision and the associated complexity of the production process of a license plate having a data carrier.
