SYSTEM FOR COMMUNICATING WITH REMOVABLE COMPONENTS
A system for communicating with removable components may include an electronic controller and a removable component having an identifier and configured to communicate with the electronic controller. The removable component may be configured to transmit the identifier to the electronic controller via a first communication channel. The electronic controller may be configured to transmit a confirmation to the removable component after receipt of the identifier. The removable component may be configured to transmit information to the electronic controller via at least one of the first communication channel and/or a second communication channel, after receipt of the confirmation.
Reconfigurable storage assembly for a vehicle
A reconfigurable storage assembly for a vehicle includes a first floor panel and a second floor panel. The first floor panel includes a first outboard region, a first inboard region, and a first underside surface. The first outboard region is configured to be coupled to a base of the vehicle. The first floor panel is configured to pivot in a first rotational direction from a first closed position to a first open position. The second floor panel includes a second outboard region, a second inboard region, and a second underside surface. The second outboard region is configured to be coupled to the base. The second floor panel is configured to pivot in a second rotational direction opposite the first rotational direction from a second closed position to a second open position.
Accessory mounting frame for a vehicle seat base
An accessory mounting frame is attachable to various vehicle seat bases and allows for connection of a vehicle accessory when the vehicle seat is removed. The accessory mounting frame includes a first seat attachment projection, a second seat attachment projection, and an accessory fastener coupled to the first seat attachment projection and the second seat attachment projection. The first seat attachment projection has a first bearing surface that is configured to bear against a first portion of the vehicle seat base. The second seat attachment projection has a second bearing surface that is configured to bear against a second portion of the vehicle seat base. The first seat attachment projection and the second seat attachment projection are adjustable with respect to the accessory fastener.
AIR TANK ASSEMBLY
An air tank assembly disposed within a cab of a vehicle having a floor and a seat for a vehicle occupant comprises a platform mounted to the floor of the cab of the vehicle. A base of the seat is mounted to the platform opposite to the floor of the cab of the vehicle. At least one tank providing storage for compressed air is located by the platform above the floor of the cab of the vehicle adjacent the base of the seat.
VEHICULAR LOCKING UNIT
A vehicular locking unit includes an engaging portion provided at an internal member of a vehicle to face an internal space in the vehicle, a hook portion, which is provided at an internal portion of the vehicle and which is selectively engaged with the engaging portion to attach the internal portion to the internal member in the internal space, and a locking mechanism, which is provided at the internal portion and which is coupled to the hook portion to selectively actuate the hook portion, whereby the hook portion is engaged with or disengaged from the engaging portion to attach the internal portion to the internal member or detach the same therefrom.
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.
UNDERBODY CAMERA
An underbody camera located beneath and within a wheel base of a vehicle includes a mounting bracket coupled to the vehicle, a camera housing, and a camera. The camera housing is coupled to the mounting bracket and defines an interior camera compartment.
