Center information display system, vehicle, and method for adjusting view angle of center information display
A center information display system includes a center information display; a capturing device configured to obtain information on an occupant inside a vehicle; a rotating structure configured to adjust a view angle of the center information display; and a control device in communication with the capturing device, being configured to determine whether there is an occupant in a driver seat or a passenger seat, and control the rotating structure to rotate the center information display to a predetermined view angle.
SEARCHLIGHT SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE POST
A searchlight system for mounting to a vehicle, for example on the A-pillar, without requiring modification to structural frame components. The system comprises a mounting assembly which is installed on the vehicle and a searchlight assembly which is mounted to the mounting assembly. Searchlight assemblies with different optical devices can be modularly exchanged with respect to the same mounting assembly installed on the vehicle. Also disclosed is a method for installing such systems. Other aspects are directed to heat dissipation and ingress protection for the searchlight assembly.
Sensor holder for a sensor for object detection
A sensor holder for a sensor for object detection includes: an installation unit for the sensor; a holding frame on which the installation unit is pivotably held; and an adjustment shaft mounted on the holding frame, the adjustment shaft having a guidance contour which proceeds helically around the adjustment shaft and is in engagement with a guidance element of the installation unit.
Device for automatically adjusting angle of monitor on vehicle seat back
A device for automatically adjusting an angle of a monitor on a vehicle seat back includes: a fixation bracket on a front seat back upper-frame; a first rotation bracket on an upper portion of the fixation bracket; a second rotation bracket on a lower portion of the fixation bracket; a monitor on a front surface of the first rotation bracket; a motor on a bottom surface of the second rotation bracket; an angle adjustment bar integrally combined with a rear surface of the first rotation bracket; a lead screw, whose lower portion is connected to an output shaft of the motor, and whose upper portion passes through the second rotation bracket; and an ascending and descending member having a threaded hole such that the ascending and descending member fastened to the lead screw while being fastened to an end portion of the angle adjustment bar.
GLOVE BOX ARRANGEMENT, DASHBOARD ARRANGEMENT AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT ARRANGEMENT
A glove box arrangement for a motor vehicle includes a glove box and a pivoting element. The pivoting element can be moved between an idle position and an active position and includes an activity surface that is covered toward an exterior space in the idle position and accessible from the exterior space in the active position. In a dashboard arrangement, a crossbeam extends horizontally and transverse to a driving direction and includes a dashboard. A clearance area of the crossbeam extends in an exterior space that surrounds the dashboard and a glove box arrangement is mounted on the crossbeam in the clearance area. In a passenger compartment arrangement for a motor vehicle includes a front passenger seat and a glove box arrangement or with a dashboard arrangement. The glove box arrangement is arranged in the region of the front passenger seat.
Rotatable rack for vehicle bed
A rotatable rack for a vehicle bed. The rack can be clamped onto a bed of a vehicle and an item, which can optionally include a case or a tool box, can be rotated into and out of the bed of the truck. The rack can be locked into one or more positions via a pin engaging one or more openings. The rack can hold the item inside of the bed of the vehicle suspended above the bed such that the item does not get slammed up and down as violently when traveling down a rough road as it would if it were merely placed on the bottom of the bed of the vehicle.
Rotating sensor assembly
A sensor assembly includes a base, a sensor body mounted to the base and rotatable around an axis relative to the base, a sensor window fixed relative to the sensor body, a sensing apparatus inside the sensor body and having a field of view through the sensor window, a vapor chamber fixed relative to the sensor body, and a heat pipe extending from the sensor body to the vapor chamber. The vapor chamber is spaced radially outward from the sensor body relative to the axis and has a curved shape extending circumferentially around the axis.
TRUCK BED WITH SELECTIVELY ACTUATED MAGNETIC FLOOR SECTIONS
A pick-up truck bed having controllably magnetized areas for retaining cargo or attachment devices. A first permanent magnet may be attached below the lower surface of the truck bed with a second permanent being rotatable relative to the first permanent magnet to control the magnetic flux provided to retain objects in the truck bed. Alternatively, one or more electromagnets may be provided that may be turned on to retain objects in the truck bed and turned off to allow removal of objects.
DISPLAY DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
Various aspects of the present disclosure are directed to providing a display device for a vehicle, which is to be installed in an interior of the vehicle, the device comprising: a display that displays an image; a support structure that supports the display to be movable; and a driving device connected to the display and the support structure to move the display, wherein the driving device comprises: a motor that generates a driving force; a roller connected to the motor to be rotated by the driving force of the motor; and at least one rotational elastic member disposed between the display and the support structure.
