Rear camera device for vehicle and module cover thereof
Disclosed is a rear camera module for a vehicle. The disclosed rear camera module includes a module cover mounted to a rear side of the vehicle such that a rotational shaft of a rear wiper is rotatably coupled to the module cover and a rear camera module installed at the module cover to photograph a rear-view image of the vehicle. The rear camera module can be easily and conveniently installed at the rear side of the vehicle.
ALARMING SYSTEM FOR A WIPER AND A WIPER BLADE ASSEMBLY WITH ALARMING FUNCTION
The invention relates to an alarming system of a wiper, which comprises: a first connecting member, comprising a first body and a first number of first contacts which are insulated to each other and disposed at the first body; a second connecting member, comprising a second body and a first number of second contacts which are electrically connected to each other and disposed at the second body; and control member; any one of the first connecting member or the second connecting member is connected to a wiper arm; the other one of the first connecting member or the second connecting member is connected to a wiper blade; the first number is equal to or larger than two; when the wiper blade is properly mounted to the wiper arm, the first connecting member is connected to the second connecting member, such that each of the first contacts is in contact with corresponding one of the second contacts, and thereby the first contacts are electrically connected to each other through the second contacts; the control member are configured to sense the electrical connection between the first contacts, and to generate alarm signal when sensing that the electrical connection between the first contacts is disconnected.
Method and apparatus for providing road and vehicle condition diagnostics
A method of providing road and vehicle diagnostics, includes providing a vehicle axle system having a first axle half shaft housing, a second axle half shaft housing and a differential housing. Attached to one or more of the housings is one or more tri-axis accelerometers. In communication with the accelerometers is one or more data processors configured to receive and analyze data from the accelerometers. An occurrence of one or more road events is determined by one or more spikes in the Z-direction of the data collected from the accelerometers. A depth of the road event is determined by a magnitude of the positive and negative changes in acceleration of the spike in the Z-direction and a length of road event is determined by an amount of time between two spikes of opposite magnitudes in said Z-direction. Once identified, the time and geographic location of the road event is identified.
DEVICE FOR LOCKING A WIPER BLADE TO A DRIVE ARM
Device for locking a windshield wiper (10) to a drive arm (12), characterized in that it comprises electrical means (4) able to drive a reversible movement of at least one locking element (5) secured to the arm (12) or to the wiper (10), said at least one locking element (5) moving relative to the arm (12) or to the wiper (10) to which it is secured between an unlocked position in which said at least one locking element (5) is secured only to the arm (12) or to the wiper (10) and a locked position in which said at least one element (5) is secured to the arm (12) and to the wiper (10).
Wiper system
A wiper system for wiping off deposits deposited on a surface of a wiped member comprising a pair of carriages attached to frame members holding the wiped member so as to face each other across the wiped member and moving back and forth over the frame members along two facing sides of the wiped member, a pair of wiper arms respectively attached to the pair of carriages and extending from the frame member sides to the wiped member sides, and a pair of wiper blades respectively attached to the pair of wiper arms, extending substantially parallel to the other two facing sides of the wiped member, and arranged at the surface of the wiped member.
System and method for removing light scattering film from the interior of a windshield
The present invention discloses a system and method for cleaning the light scattering film (LSF) from the surface of a windshield in a vehicle, and more particularly, is directed to a magnetically associated cleaning element that is moved across the interior surface of a windshield by an interactive magnetic force transmitted through the windshield, with magnets associated with the wiper assembly on the other side of the glass.
Brushing system
A brushing system, including: a brush; and a hydraulic motor, for rotating the brush. The hydraulic motor is operable by pressurized water, and the pressurized water is administrable by outlets of the brush, thereby brushing of the brush is accompanied by the administrable water.
COVERS FOR SHIELDING WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND DOOR HANDLES FROM ICE AND SNOW
A cover system for shielding automobile parts from ice and snow includes an automobile part and a sleeve covering the automobile part. The sleeve comprises a tubular wall which is elongated and bounds an interior space. A portion of the automobile part is positioned in the interior space. The tubular wall has a slit extending across an entirety of a length of the tubular wall through the tubular wall to the interior space through which the automobile part is movable.
WIPER DEVICES, VEHICLE-MOUNTED LIDAR, AND VEHICLE
There is provides a wiper device, the wiper device comprises a driving mechanism, a wiper component, and a base. The base defines an opening. the wiper component, is adapted to the opening. The driving mechanism is fixedly connected to the wiper component, and the driving mechanism drives the wiper component to swing; when the wiper component swings, the wiper component gradually opens up a certain angle relative to the base through the opening and extends out of the base, or gradually closes down relative to the base through the opening and hides in the base.
HEATED AND ILLUMINATED WIPER ASSEMBLY AND METHOD
A wiper assembly includes a wiper arm, a wiper blade carried on the wiper arm and a light source provided between the wiper arm and the raised wiper blade. The wiper assembly may also include a heating element and a controller to control operation of the light source and the heating element.
