DOOR ASSEMBLY FOR VEHICLES
Embodiments of the invention provide a opening and closing assembly for a rigid door panel that is rotatably attached to a roller received within a track on a door frame member. A support member can be rotatably attached to the door panel. A first pivot arm can extend inboard from the support member to pivotally attach to an inboard frame member. Upon application of an upward force to the door panel, the first pivot arm can pivot with respect to the first inner frame member to move the support member in an arcuate path. The support member can thereby move the door panel upward and inboard along a door path at least partly defined by the track, with a lower end of the door panel not extending substantially outboard of the door frame member as the door panel moves along the door path.
VEHICLE OPENING-CLOSING BODY CONTROL APPARATUS
A vehicle opening-closing body control apparatus includes: a driving device driving an opening-closing body; a lock device retaining the opening-closing body in fully open and fully closed positions by including a latch mechanism, which performs an engagement action depending on a movement position of the opening-closing body; and a control device controlling the actions of the driving and lock devices, wherein the control device includes a position determination unit determining whether the movement position is in an engagement action position of the latch mechanism in a case in which driving control of the opening-closing body is stopped, and it becomes possible for the driving control to be restarted thereafter, and an engagement release control unit causing the latch mechanism to perform a release action by controlling the action of the lock device in a case in which it is determined that the movement position is in the engagement action position.
Guide device and door system
A guide device having, a guide rail and a runner, which engages at least in part in the guide rail and is guided in a linearly movable manner in the guide rail via a recirculating ball bearing. The balls associated with the recirculating ball bearing are arranged in at least one ball row and guided in at least one ball raceway. The balls associated with a ball row are each guided in a ball raceway composed of two partial ball raceways. The first partial ball raceway is formed in the runner and extends along a runner longitudinal axis. The second ball raceway is formed by a guide groove, formed on the runner and extends along the runner longitudinal axis, and a guide rail guide groove, opposite the runner guide groove and formed on the guide rail.
Cab and cargo body configuration for a delivery vehicle
A vehicle includes a chassis and a vehicle body coupled to the chassis. The vehicle body includes a cab disposed on a forward end of the chassis and a cargo body disposed on a rear end of the chassis. The cab includes a front door that is slidably engaged to the cab. The cargo body includes a side door that is slidably engaged to the cargo body. The front door and the side door are disposed on the same side of the vehicle.
VEHICLE DOOR SYSTEM AND METHOD OF OPERATION
A vehicle comprising: a side wall shaped to define a door opening and a door-exclusion zone, the door-exclusion zone having a maximum height that is higher than a bottom edge of the door opening and lower than a top edge of the door opening; a door having a closed-door position aligned with the door opening and an open-door position higher in its entirety than the door-exclusion zone in its entirely; and a guiding assembly coupled to the door being arranged to constrain the movement of the door between the closed-door position and the open-door position in a travel-path defined to keeping the door of impinging the door-exclusion zone; wherein the door movement constrained to the travel-path includes, in a door-opening mode, an upward vector and a longitudinal vector toward the door-exclusion zone, and in a door-closing mode, a downward vector and a longitudinal vector away from the door-exclusion zone.
Pivot sliding door guiding device without guide rail
A pivot sliding door guiding device includes a longitudinal profile with a guiding track and slider, supported on support rollers in a linearly movable manner in the guiding track, and which is connected to a door leaf and transfers a bearing load onto the slider. In the guiding track, convex bearing members extending in the longitudinal direction are disposed, on which support rollers of the slider with, in each case, peripherally extending concave guiding grooves roll and are retained in the transverse direction. The door leaf is connected to the slider whereby a center of gravity acts off-center on the slider in running and transverse directions. The slider has support rollers which serve for the load transfer of the load acting from the door leaf on the slider. The rollers roll on upper and lower convex bearing members, and transfer load of the door leaf via the convex bearing members.
Vehicle and method of controlling the same
A vehicle includes a display, a mode setter determining a visual information provision target of an image displayed on the display according to a driving status and setting forward orientation of the image on the display according to the visual information provision target, and a display controller selecting an image corresponding to the driving status and displaying the image on the display after adjusting the forward orientation of the selected image to the inward direction, outward direction, or both directions of the display according to the forward orientation set by the mode setter.
Linear guide without guide rail
A guiding device for a door system, in particular a sliding or pivot sliding door system of a public transport vehicle, includes: a longitudinal profile formed from a first material for attachment to a door portal, which has a guiding track, which is U-shaped in cross section, with a bottom surface and two side walls extending at right angles therefrom, a slider, which at least partially reaches into the guiding track and is supported on rolling members in a linearly movable manner in the guiding track, wherein a bearing member formed from a second material is disposed in the guiding track, which extends along the guiding track and on which the rolling members supporting the slider roll during a linear movement of the slider, the second material forming the bearing member is harder than the first material forming the longitudinal profile.
School Bus Service Door Facial and Skull Protection Bumpers
A protection device for a manual bus service door opening mechanism is described. The protection device comprises at least one first protection bumper configured to cover rigid edges of a rotatable pivot arm, the rigid edges facing an aisle of a bus, wherein the rotatable pivot arm connects a bus service door to the manual bus service door opening mechanism via a linkage connecting the bus service door to a handle through the rotatable pivot arm.
Mobile fulfillment system
A mobile fulfillment system includes a shipper system that collects and manages customer information and order data input from customers; a fulfillment platform that receives the customer information and order data from the shipper system and controls vehicle control and dispatch accordingly; and a mobile fulfillment center that includes a plurality of vehicles dispatched from the fulfillment platform and delivers products to customers and monitors delivery status according to the customer information and order data.
