Disclosed herein is a vehicle theft prevention device. The device can include a data store including event configuration data. The device can include one or more sensors that can sense various types of measurements proximate to a vehicle. The device can include a computing device in communication with the sensors. The computing device can read measurements from the sensors and determine that a particular event has occurred. The computing device can analyze the measurements to determine the particular event occurred based on the event configuration data. When the particular event occurs, the computing device can perform one or more remedial actions.

Defibrillation system for self-driving vehicles

A defibrillation system may include a cardiac arrest detector detecting whether cardiac arrest of a passenger has occurred in a state of taking a seat of a self-driving vehicle and fastening a seatbelt of the vehicle; a passenger posture detection device detecting a posture of the passenger; a seat driving device changing the posture of the passenger into another posture in which the passenger lies down based on a detection signal of the passenger posture detection device when the cardiac arrest of the passenger occurs; a heart position detector configured to search for a position of a heart of the passenger; a defibrillation robot to perform a CPR method or a method using an AED on the heart of the passenger; and a controller controlling operation of the seat driving device, the heart position detector, and the defibrillation robot based on detection signals of the cardiac arrest detector and the passenger posture detection device.

Arrangement structure of auxiliary machine for vehicle

A vehicular auxiliary machine is disposed between seats arranged side by side in a vehicular width direction of a vehicle body. A bracket is a member on which the vehicular auxiliary machine is mounted, and which is fixed to the vehicle body. The vehicular auxiliary machine includes a harness connecting portion disposed in such a way as to locate on a side of one of the seats. The bracket includes a base surface and a pair of vertical wall portions. Further, the bracket includes a rib spanning between a harness connecting portion and the base surface, on a harness-side vertical wall portion of the paired vertical wall portions close to the harness connecting portion.

A passenger compartment storage assembly includes a storage structure, a first storage box and a box retaining structure. The storage structure is fixed to a floor of a passenger compartment of a vehicle and having a storage compartment defined therein. The first storage box has a predetermined overall shape. The box retaining structure is configured and dimensioned to releasably retain the first storage box. The storage compartment is dimensioned and configured to receive the first storage box and the box retaining structure within the storage compartment.

Cable driven sliding center console

Center console provided with a fixed rail, extending in a longitudinal direction, a translatable member, a gearbox assembly and first and second cables. The translatable member may be coupled to the fixed rail and configured to move between a first position and a second position. The gearbox assembly may include a cable drum configured to rotate in a first rotational direction and a second rotational direction. The first and second cables may each be coupled to the translatable member and a cable drum. As the cable drum rotates in the first rotational direction, the first cable may translate the translatable member towards the first position. As the cable drum rotates in the second rotational direction, the second cable may translate the translatable member towards the second position.

Assembly for mounting a mobile terminal, and vehicle comprising such a mounting assembly

An assembly for mounting a mobile terminal in or on a vehicle, having a mounting console which has a receiving portion for the mobile terminal. The receiving portion has a support surface for the mobile terminal starting from a vertical and being arranged in an inclined manner relative to same, and a base which delimits the bottom of the receiving portion and supports the bottom of the mobile terminal. The mounting console is arranged in a compulsory manner in or on the vehicle and its support surface is inclined towards a vehicle driver of the vehicle in such a way that when the mobile terminal is arranged as intended in the mounting console such that an operating and/or display surface of the mounted mobile terminal faces away from the vehicle driver, the operating and/or display surface is not visible to the vehicle driver.

Sensing and controlling states of locking mechanisms

An affixable device can include a locking mechanism, a force-limiting mechanism, and a sensing mechanism. The locking mechanism can include an engagement component configured to disable the locking mechanism. The force-limiting mechanism can be configured to limit a locking force of the locking mechanism. The sensing mechanism can be coupled to the engagement component, and can be configured to determine that the force-limiting mechanism has limited the locking force of the locking mechanism. In response to determining the force-limiting mechanism limiting the locking force, the sensing mechanism can cause the engagement component to disable the locking mechanism.

Vehicle console assembly

A console assembly having a hood and a shroud. The hood has one or more base mounting points configured for installation to a vehicle body structure, and one or more accessory mounting points spaced from and rigidly connected to the one or more base mounting points. The shroud defines an enclosed volume, and is configured to install over the hood, with the one or more base mounting points contained within the enclosed volume, and the one or more accessory mounting points located outside the enclosed volume. When the hood is attached to the vehicle body structure and the shroud is installed over the hood, the hood is configured to convey respective loads applied to the one or more accessory mounting points to the one or more base mounting points independently of the shroud. A hood assembly and a method for installing a console assembly are also provided.

MOBILE TERMINAL HOLDER STRUCTURE

A mobile terminal holder structure includes a wireless charging face disposed upright substantially normal to a vehicle length direction, and a pair of retainers horizontally spaced from each other along the wireless charging face and coming into contact with opposite side edges of a mobile terminal, respectively, to retain the mobile terminal. Each retainer is rotatable about a rotation shaft extending along the vehicle length at an upper end of the retainer. A lower end of each retainer is urged toward the opposite retainer by an elastic force of a helical torsion spring.
