Side step apparatus and actuation mechanism
A side step apparatus for a vehicle including a side step, a bracket having a base plate and a panel plate, and an actuation mechanism including a first link, a second link and an actuator connected between the base plate of the bracket and the side step to move the side step in at least one of a running board position, an aerodynamic position, and a stowed position based on a speed of the vehicle.
Variable Spoiler Apparatus of Rear Bumper for Vehicle
Disclosed is a variable spoiler apparatus of the rear bumper for vehicles. The variable spoiler apparatus includes a linkage device, to be installed on a bumper back beam, which is able to vary in length in an up-down direction during a rotating operation. A spoiler is coupled to the linkage device and is able to move in the up-down direction by the rotation operation of the linkage device. A first drive device, to be installed on the bumper back beam, includes a first rotating shaft coupled to the linkage device to transmit a rotating force. When the first drive device is operated, the linkage device is rotated by a rotation of the first rotating shaft so that the spoiler is moved in the up-down direction. A second rotating shaft is rotatably coupled to the linkage device. The second rotating shaft is penetrated and connected to a second drive device.
STEERING COLUMN ASSEMBLY HAVING A SHIFT GATE ASSEMBLY
A shift gate assembly includes a detent plate having a shift gate pattern. The shift gate pattern is provided with a first detent, a second detent, and a plurality of intermediate sides that extend between the first detent and the second detent. A side of the first detent that faces towards another side of the second detent is disposed in a non-parallel relationship with another side of the second detent.
Collapsible pushchair frame or doll's pushchair frame
A collapsible pushchair frame or doll's pushchair frame, includes: two lateral frame bars with push bars and front wheel arrangements on the frame bars; two lateral support struts, each of which is pivotably fastened, by a respective joint to a frame bar, at a distance from the lower end of the bar and which have bearings for rear wheels on their lower ends lying towards the rear in relation to the articulation points; and a seat insert or reclining insert. At least one stabilizing rod is designed as a safety rod and divided by a knee joint. An adjusting device includes an actuating element (21) arranged under the insert in the pushchair frame is coupled to at least one part of the at least one stabilizing rod, the actuating element being used to at least raise the corresponding front part of the stabilizing rod (13a, 13b) comprising the knee joint (18).
ACTIVE FRONT DEFLECTOR
An active front deflector assembly having a deployable deflector panel, linkage assemblies, and an actuator. The system deploys and retracts based on vehicle requirements, and, when deployed, interrupts air flow thereby improving the vehicle aerodynamics, reducing emissions and improving fuel economy. The deflector panel is retractable so the vehicle meets ground clearances, ramp angles, off-road requirements, etc. The deflector panel is also both rigid and semi-rigid to absorb impact energy. The linkage assemblies are coupled to the deflector panel and a drive shaft connected to the actuator. The drive shaft transmits the drive from the actuator coupled to one linkage assembly to the other linkage assembly for moving the deflector panel between the deployed/retracted positions. The actuator is clutched to prevent damage to the system. The active front deflector assembly provides a fully deployable system with object detection, declutching of the actuator, and communication with the vehicle.
COLLAPSIBLE PUSHCHAIR FRAME OR DOLL'S PUSHCHAIR FRAME
A collapsible pushchair frame or doll's pushchair frame, includes: two lateral frame bars with push bars and front wheel arrangements on the frame bars; two lateral support struts, each of which is pivotably fastened, by a respective joint to a frame bar, at a distance from the lower end of the bar and which have bearings for rear wheels on their lower ends lying towards the rear in relation to the articulation points; and a seat insert or reclining insert. At least one stabilizing rod is designed as a safety rod and divided by a knee joint. An adjusting device includes an actuating element (21) arranged under the insert in the pushchair frame is coupled to at least one part of the at least one stabilizing rod, the actuating element being used to at least raise the corresponding front part of the stabilizing rod comprising the knee joint (18).
Finger-operated lever device to be installed on a vehicle handlebar for actuating a cable of a vehicle
A finger-operated lever device to be installed on a handlebar of an All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) or other applicable vehicle, for actuating a cable to cause acceleration of the internal combustion engine of the vehicle. The lever device includes a housing, an internal first lever assembly connectable to the cable, and an external second lever assembly. The external lever assembly and the internal lever assembly are connected so that user operation of the external lever assembly causes the internal lever assembly to rotate. The external lever assembly is divided into two portions, a support member and an extension member. The extension member can be adjusted at different angles to the support member, allowing the user to set the angle of the lever to most comfortably fit to his or her riding posture.
OPERATION MECHANISM AND WORKING VEHICLE
Provided is an operation mechanism capable of converting a direction of rocking with a simple configuration when an operation of an operation tool is transmitted. Included are: a first rocking member 32 rockable about a lower first rocking shaft 32b; a second rocking member 37 rockable about a lower second rocking shaft 38 disposed in a direction perpendicular to the lower first rocking shaft 32b; a rod end 36 fixed to the first rocking member 32; a coupling rod 39 fixed to the second rocking member 37 and including a shaft-shaped portion 39b disposed with an axial direction inclined with respect to the lower second rocking shaft 38, the shaft-shaped portion 39b being slidably coupled to the rod end 36; and a loader lever 20 coupled to one of the first rocking member 32 or the second rocking member 37.
MOTOR VEHICLE COMPRISING AN ARRANGEMENT FOR UNLOCKING A LOCK OF A FRONT HOOD
A motor vehicle includes an arrangement for unlocking a lock of a front hood. The arrangement includes a gripping structure and a cable connecting the lock of the front hood to the gripping structure. The gripping structure is accessible to a user from the outside of a passenger compartment of the motor vehicle. The cable is positioned on the outside of the passenger compartment of the motor vehicle.
Active aero shutter for a motor vehicle
The invention refers to an active aero shutter for a motor vehicle, comprising a frame with openings through which air can flow, at least one closing plate in each opening, which closes the opening and stops the air flow when closed, and the frame is formed by several struts, each connected to at least one other strut, wherein each closing plate is pivoted with a hinge on a basic strut. As the active aero shutter according to the invention has counterrotating closing plates which are rotating in several angles it is possible to explore new design concepts and ensure driving performance.
