VEHICLE INTERIOR PANEL HAVING A DOCKING STATION FOR A MOBILE DEVICE
A vehicle interior panel includes an in-vehicle support substrate and a docking station for a mobile device. The docking station includes a top edge, a bottom wall, and a reception surface for the mobile device between the top edge and the bottom wall. The reception surface is pivotably attached with respect to the support substrate. A first portion of the bottom wall is configured to hold the mobile device, and a second portion of the bottom wall is configured to remain recessed within the support substrate when the docking station is in a tilted position. This structure for a docking station helps improve within vehicle integration.
Drawer assembly for mounting to a cargo area of a vehicle
Drawer assembly for mounting to a cargo area of a vehicle. The drawer assembly includes: a drawer body defining a longitudinal axis and configured to be mounted to a track system to allow moving towards and away from the cargo area along the longitudinal axis; and a utility module pivotally mounted to the drawer body about an axis arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The utility module is pivotable between a storage position, where the utility module is received within the drawer body, and an access position, where the utility module is arranged to extend away from the drawer body.
Retaining device for an exterior add-on part of a motor vehicle
A retaining device for an exterior add-on part of a motor vehicle comprises a base part for exterior mounting on the motor vehicle, on which a connecting element is mounted with a first pivoting device, via which the connecting element can be pivoted relative to the base part about a first pivot axis between a working position and at least one protection position. A first spring device, via which the connecting element can be returned from the at least one protection position into the working position. A retaining element mounted on the connecting element, by a second pivoting device having a second spring device, to be pivotable about a second pivot axis between the working position and the protection position, wherein the retaining element can be returned to the working position by the second spring device.
HOLDER FOR DETACHABLY FASTENING A FLAT DEVICE TO A MOTOR VEHICLE SEAT
The invention relates to a holder (10) for detachably fastening a flat, approximately rectangular device—such as a tablet computer or a smartphone—to a motor vehicle seat (20), wherein the holder has a fastening device (12) for the detachable plug-in fastening of the holder to a plug-in receptacle (18) allocated to the motor vehicle seat, and wherein the holder has a holding device (24) for detachably holding the device to the holder, wherein the fastening device and the holding device are connected to one another via a coupling element (36), wherein the coupling element is connected to the fastening device via a first joint and to the holding device via a second joint, wherein the joints are designed as swivel joints with a first swivel joint (42) and a first swivel axis (38) and with a second swivel joint (44) and a second swivel axis (40), wherein the first swivel axis and the second swivel axis are oriented parallel to one another.
SET OF ELECTRONIC DEVICE, STAND THEREOF AND PIVOTING MECHANISM THEREOF
A stand having a pivoting mechanism is included in a set of electronic device. The pivoting mechanism includes a first pivoting element, a second pivoting element pivotally connected to the first pivoting element, a multi-positioning assembly connected to the first and the second pivoting element, and a restoring element having two ends that are respectively contacting the first and the second pivoting element. When the second pivoting element is, respectively, at a first and a second position, a first and a second angle are formed between the first and the second pivoting element. The first angle is less than the second angle. The multi-positioning assembly temporarily positions the first pivoting element with the second pivoting element. When the second pivoting element is, respectively, at the first and the second position, the restoring element has a first and a second deformation. The first deformation is less than the second deformation.
Holding mechanism and holding device
A holding mechanism prevents a device at a back side of a held object from being hidden by the object. Even if a large smartphone is held, clamping with a fixed clamping part and a movable clamping part prevents the fixed part from being moved, wherein a device located back of the smartphone and at the side of the fixed clamping part cannot be hidden by the smartphone. Due to the movable clamping part being movable farther from a rotation axis than the fixed clamping part, a middle portion of the smartphone in the clamping direction substantially coincides with the rotation axis when holding a smartphone with a specified width, wherein the smartphone cannot be easily moved in a Y- and Z-direction when rotating a holding part to change orientation, and also at the back side, a device located at the side of the clamp cannot be easily hidden.
CONTROLLING A DEVICE DEPENDENT ON THE SEAT INCLINATION
A motor vehicle includes a seat having a backrest with an adjustable backrest inclination, an interior device, and a controllable device. A touch-sensitive screen for controlling the controllable device is arranged in or on the interior device. The inclination, curvature and/or position of the touch-sensitive screen is adjustable relative to the interior device. A control device in the motor vehicle can control the inclination, curvature and/or the position of the touch-sensitive screen depending on the backrest inclination of the backrest. Therefore, a device in a motor vehicle can be controlled in a more comfortable manner by controlling the inclination, curvature, and/or the position of the device depending on the backrest inclination of the backrest of the seat in the motor vehicle.
MODULE FOR A VEHICLE
A module for a vehicle having an interior element and a display element having a screen area and connected to the interior element via an adjusting mechanism for adjusting the display element between an erect position, in which the screen area is arranged on a display side with respect to a horizontal displacement axis, and a lowered position, displaced, relative to the erect position, downwards with respect to the vertical axis of the vehicle and towards the display side with respect to the displacement axis and the screen area is pivoted downwards away from the vertical axis. The adjusting mechanism has a lower arm and an upper arm, each connected to the display element via a display pivot axis and to the interior element at least indirectly via at least one interior pivot axis, wherein in the erect position, the lower arm is lower than the upper arm.
