Shift control system for automatic transmission
A shift control system for an automatic transmission is provided. The system includes a shift switch through which a manual transmission command for arbitrarily changing a gear stage of the automatic transmission can be inputted in a manual transmission mode. The manual transmission mode includes a first manual mode in which the gear stage is changed and maintained by inputting the manual transmission command using the shift switch, and a second manual mode in which an automatic transmission mode is resumed by satisfying a resuming condition after the gear stage is changed. The system includes a mode input device configured to select in advance one of the first manual mode and the second manual mode to be set, the mode input device setting to the automatic transmission mode by the selected mode being changed from the first manual mode to the second manual mode, or vice versa.

System, method and apparatus for alternate locations for a rake pivot axis for a steer-by-wire steering column
A steering column assembly including a steering column for a steer-by-wire application. The steering column extends between a first end and a second end and includes a hand wheel location on the first end and a rotation output on the second end. The steering column assembly further includes a rake bracket assembly that is spaced from the rotation output and towards the hand wheel location. The rake bracket assembly defines a pivot axis from which the steering column can tilt. During rake movement or tilting, the first end and the second end of the steering column both pivot as the steering column is adjusted about the pivot axis.

Shift control system for automatic transmission
A shift control system for an automatic transmission is provided, which is mounted on a vehicle configured to be started by an ignition switch being turned on, where an automatic transmission mode or a manual transmission mode is selectively set. The system includes a shift switch through which a manual transmission command for arbitrarily changing a gear stage of the automatic transmission can be inputted in the manual transmission mode, and a controller. The manual transmission mode includes a first manual mode in which the gear stage is changed and maintained by inputting the manual transmission command using the shift switch, and a second manual mode in which the automatic transmission mode is resumed by satisfying a resuming condition after the gear stage is changed. When the ignition switch is turned on, the controller selects in advance the second mode to be set to the automatic transmission.

Steering Column Assembly Module Having an Operating Device for Setting an Operating Parameter of a Motor Vehicle, and Motor Vehicle Comprising Such a Steering Column Assembly Module
A steering column assembly module having an operating device for setting an operating parameter of a motor vehicle comprises a static central element that annularly surrounds a steering axis, and a recess, and has an elongated rotary element with a longitudinal axis, and comprises a grip section, and a bearing section that is fixedly connected to the grip section. In this context, the bearing section of the rotary element is disposed in the recess of the central element at least sectionally, and is mounted in the central element rotatably about the longitudinal axis, wherein a rotation sensor is configured to detect a rotational position of the rotary element, and in dependence upon the detected rotational position, to generate a control signal for setting the operating parameter.

All-terrain vehicle and exhaust assembly for all-terrain vehicle
The present disclosure relates to an all-terrain vehicle and an exhaust assembly for an all-terrain vehicle. The all-terrain vehicle includes: a frame, a V-type twin-cylinder engine and an exhaust assembly. The V-type twin-cylinder engine has a first exhaust port and a second exhaust port, and a cylinder corresponding to the first exhaust port is located in front of a cylinder corresponding to the second exhaust port. The V-type twin-cylinder engine is mounted on the frame. The exhaust pipe group has a first end coupled to the first exhaust port, a second end coupled to the second exhaust port, and a third end coupled to a pipe of the muffler. The exhaust pipe group is divided into at least two exhaust pipes, and adjacent exhaust pipes are flexibly coupled.
STEERING COLUMN
A steering column with a switch module at least partially surrounding the steering column. The switch module includes at least one actuating lever for activating at least one function. A mechanical interface for attaching at least one bracket for an object is provided in the area of the switch module. The interface is configured as a separate component mounted on the switch module.
