A method for attaching a plastic barrel configured to guide an output shaft of a mechanical device to a housing for the mechanical device is disclosed. The housing includes a chimney delimited by an upper edge and a base, the chimney being arranged to partially surround the output shaft, the plastic barrel having a lateral protuberance. The method involves at least the following steps: inserting a first end of the plastic barrel into the chimney of the housing until the lateral protuberance axially abuts against the upper edge of the chimney, and at least partially deforming the first end of the plastic barrel in order to form an axial counter-abutment.

Systems and methods for random vehicle movement to prevent theft are disclosed. The vehicle system may automatically reposition to make it seem like the user is home and to reduce battery drain and flat spots on the tire. The system may randomize the start time based on the preferences of the user. At the randomly decided time, the vehicle may start up on its own and reposition itself. In addition, the system may learn a driving behavior pattern of the vehicle via machine learning based on driving behavior associated with the vehicle, such that the vehicle may perform vehicle movement based on the learned driving behavior pattern.

A vehicle wiper device includes: a wiper motor; a control unit that drives the wiper motor to be reciprocally rotated and controls a rotation speed of the wiper motor; and a wiper reciprocally rotating to wipe a wiped surface of a vehicle with a blade rubber, in which a tilt direction of a lip part of the blade rubber changes when a rotation direction is reversed. The control unit accelerates a rotation speed of the wiper motor, in a first acceleration section, from 0 to a first speed which is a low speed at a first average acceleration, and to rapidly accelerate the rotation speed of the motor, in a first half of a second acceleration section, to reach a speed which is higher than the first speed and ? times of a second speed at an average acceleration which is twice or more of the first average acceleration.

A system includes a dome, a wiper assembly, a position sensor and a control device. The wiper assembly includes a wiper blade configured to rotate around the dome. The position sensor may be configured to send a signal to a control device when a wiper blade passes the position sensor. The control device may include one or more processors configured to receive the signal from the position sensor and determine a location of the wiper blade relative to the dome based on the received signal.
