A crossbar assembly for facilitating isolation of a sensor assembly from vibration comprises an outer crossbar segment, an inner crossbar segment, and an isolator. The outer crossbar segment comprises a payload mount interface and an outer isolator interface operable to mount to an isolator. The inner crossbar segment comprises a structure interface and an inner isolator interface operable to mount to the isolator. The isolator can be supported by the outer and inner crossbar segments. The isolator comprises a first wire rope assembly comprising wire ropes extending longitudinally from the outer crossbar segment to the inner crossbar segment, and a second wire rope assembly comprising a wire rope extending circumferentially between the outer and inner crossbar segments. The isolator operates to partially decouple the outer crossbar segment from the inner crossbar segment and dampen vibrations propagating between the outer and inner crossbar segments.

A mobile device mounting system includes a device case and a mount. The device case includes: an insert including a rectangular bore and defining a set of undercut sections about the rectangular bore; and a first set of magnetic elements arranged in a first pattern about the rectangular bore. The mount includes: a body; a polygonal boss extending from the body and configured to insert into the rectangular bore; a set of locking jaws arranged on the polygonal boss configured to transiently mate with the set of undercut sections to constrain the polygonal boss within the rectangular bore; and a second set of magnetic elements arranged in a second pattern about the polygonal boss and configured to transiently couple to the first set of magnetic elements to transiently retain the mount against the device case and to drive the set of locking jaws toward the set of undercut sections.

A sensor system for a vehicle includes a central module and a plurality of sub modules mounted in a frame of the vehicle, the sub modules being independently removable. The sub modules include sensors configured to capture image data and distance data in a vicinity of the vehicle. The central module is connected to each of the plurality of sub modules through a first network including a switching hub. The sub modules are individually connected to an external processor through a second network. The central processor is configured to synchronize the sub modules based on absolute time information through the first network, and the sub modules are configured to output the captured image data and distance data appended with synchronized time information to the external processor by communicating through the second network.

A locking assembly configured to lock a vehicle control radar with respect to a support, including a first plate which is configured to be fixedly mounted on one of the support and the vehicle control radar and which has a first face; a second plate configured to be fixedly mounted on the other one of the vehicle control radar and the support, the second plate including a second face configured to be placed facing the first face of the first plate; an end stop configured to prevent the first plate from moving in translation with respect to the second plate in a first direction along a locking direction; and a lock which is separate from the end stop and which is movable in translation along the locking direction, the lock being configured to prevent the first plate from moving in translation with respect to the second plate in a second direction which is opposite to the first direction.

An antenna mast structure for a haul truck may include a buttressed frame having a support column and a raised frontal support point. The antenna mast structure may also include a propping element extending from the raised frontal support point and a top frame pivotally secured to the support column and supported at a front side by the propping element.

A system and method for moving and aligning tandem axle lock pins on a semi-trailer, having a viewer and a remote receiver that are placeable in communication with each other. The viewer is attachable to a trailer so that a camera on the viewer can be positioned such that the trailer slide rail and tandem axle slider frame of a trailer are within the field of vision. The remote receiver may be a smartphone which can access data from the camera so that the user can from a remote location, such as a cab of a tractor, determine the alignment and orientation of the trailer slide rail and the tandem axle slider frame.

An integrated fastener comprises a component portion including a component housing surrounding a component, a linking platform molded extending from the component portion. A securing means is capable of being received within a receptacle defined by the linking platform and is designed to be received within an aperture defined by an automotive component. The securing means is capable of securing the component portion to the automotive component. The component portion, the linking platform, and the securing means are molded as one piece.

Aspects of the disclosure include a frame that has an arc-shaped structure configured to create a space between the wrap-around shield and a child safety seat arranged inward from the frame. A first end of the frame is configured to curve toward a second end of the frame. The second end of the frame is also configured to curve toward the first end of the frame, and the first end and the second end having a respective profile that has a height which increases as the first end and the second end curve toward each other. A first connecting member connected to the first end of the frame, the first connecting member comprising a tether for connecting to a first latch of a rear seat.

A register panel mounting structure includes: a retainer having a cylindrical shape and having a flow path formed therein to permit passage of air for air conditioning; and a register panel mounted at an edge portion of the retainer, the edge portion forming an opening at a downstream side. The register panel has a shape only covering, from a front side, one portion of the edge portion in a circumferential direction. The register panel includes: an inner panel disposed at a side at which the opening is located when viewed from the edge portion; and an outer panel disposed opposite to the side at which the opening is located when viewed from the edge portion. The inner panel and the outer panel sandwich one portion of the edge portion in the circumferential direction.

The invention is a combined air freshener and portable device mount which diffuses aromatic fragrance compounds contained in the main cavity of the invention and at the same time engages a fastener mounted on a personal device. The fastener can be but is not limited to ferromagnetic, detent based, or hook and loop fasteners. An elastic member wraps around the main cavity wall at the proximal end and provides friction and cushion for the personal device when it is held by the fastener. Helical threading on the main body engages compatible helical threading on a support structure, allowing the invention to be mounted in a variety of locations in a vehicle interior.
