Light Emitting Diode (LED) illumination is provided to various aspects of vehicle wheels, including wheel covers and wheel spinners. Unlike after-market add-on illumination, the wheel covers and wheel spinners described herein are built into and integrated with the wheel covers and wheel spinners, providing safe and effective illumination for the user. The wheel covers and wheel spinners can include a centrally located power supply and a switch. An optional cover may be disposed over the LEDs. With the LEDs formed into the wheel, the optional covers may be flush with and shaped in a shape to match the wheel. The wheels may be wheels from cars, trucks, trailers, recreational vehicles, all-terrain vehicles, motorcycles, golf carts and the like.

A device (1) for transmitting electrical current and/or signals in a motor vehicle is proposed. The device (1) has a wind up spring cassette (2) composed of a stator (4) and a rotor (5) in which at least one line (7) extending in windings is connected with one end thereof to the stator (4) and with the other end to the rotor (5), and at least one fixing element (3) through which a predetermined relative position for the mounting of the wind up spring cassette (2) into the motor vehicle is fixed. The fixing element is a foil like label (3) which is attached to the outside of the wind up spring cassette (2) and extends from the rotor (5) to the stator (4). The label (3) is inseparably mechanically secured at the stator (4) as well as at the rotor (5).

An electrical system may include a track assembly, a support assembly, a sensor, and at least one electronic control unit. The track assembly may include a bus bar. The support assembly may include a contact configured to engage the bus bar. The support assembly may be removably and adjustably connected to the track assembly. The at least one electronic control unit may be operatively connected to the bus bar and the sensor. The at least one electronic control unit may be configured to determine whether the support assembly and the track assembly are properly connected to one another.

A steering roll connector assembly includes a roll stator. The assembly also includes a roll rotor telescoped in and rotatably coupled to the roll stator to allow relative rotation between the roll rotor and roll stator. The assembly further includes a lock-pin operatively engaging the roll rotor, and the lock-pin is releasable from the operative engagement with the roll rotor. The assembly yet further includes an arm extending from the lock-pin and operatively engaging the roll stator when the lock-pin couples to the roll rotor to prevent relative rotation between the roll rotor and the roll stator.

A rotary connector device includes a first case, a second case, an electrical cable, and a stopper structure. The stopper structure includes a movable member, a rotation restricting portion, and a guide portion. The movable member is movable relative to the second case between a first radial position and a second radial position in a radial direction. The rotation restricting portion is provided at the first case and contactable with the movable member in a circumferential direction to restrict a relative rotation of the first case and the second case in a state where the movable member is at the second radial position. The guide portion is provided at the first case and contactable with the movable member to guide the movable member toward the first radial position.

A rotary connector device includes a first case, a second case, and a stopper structure. The stopper structure includes a movable member, a movement conversion portion, and a stopper. The movable member is rotatable about a rotation axis along with the second case with respect to the first case. The movable member is movable in an axial direction defined along the rotation axis with respect to the first case and the second case. The movement conversion portion is to convert a relative rotation of the first case and the second case into a movement of the movable member in the axial direction with respect to the first case and the second case. The stopper is provided on at least one of the first case and the second case. The stopper is contactable with the movable member.
