Telescope drive bracket with anti-rotation features
A steering column assembly includes a lower jacket, an upper jacket in telescoping engagement with the lower jacket, and a telescope actuator assembly. The telescope actuator assembly includes a jackscrew nut translatable along a lead screw. The telescope actuator assembly includes a telescope drive bracket having a base portion and a pair of arms extending from the base portion, the pair of arms each defining a slot with a respective slot surface, wherein the jackscrew nut is disposed within the slots. The telescope actuator assembly includes a first nut capture plug coupled to one of the pair of arms, the first nut capture plug having at least one tooth disposed within a cavity on a first side of the jackscrew nut to prevent relative rotation between the jackscrew nut and the telescope drive bracket.

STEERING APPARATUS INCLUDING STEERING WHEEL OF SMART MOBILITY VEHICLE
A steering apparatus of a smart mobility vehicle includes: a cockpit module disposed in front of a driver seat and a passenger seat within a vehicle; a steering wheel part connected to the cockpit module, and switchable between a position toward the driver seat and a position toward the passenger seat in a longitudinal direction of the cockpit module; and a locking part to fix the steering part according to a preset condition. The cockpit module includes a first flat section disposed in front of the driver seat and a second flat section disposed in front of the passenger seat; and a locking section curved upward to connect the first flat section and the second flat section.
Work vehicle
An annular member includes a first through hole extending through a first face to a second face forming the back face relative to the first face and having an inner face formed as a concave curved face and a tubular spherical inner ring having an outer face formed as a convex curved face extending along the inner face of the first through hole. The spherical inner face is pivotable and tiltable along the inner face of the first through hole. In a lock mechanism, the annular member is supported to a steering support mount with a support portion being fixed to the spherical inner ring of the annular member provided at the one end and the other end is pivotally supported to a vehicle body frame and supports a tilt lever.
MULTI-DIMENSIONAL ADJUSTABLE FORKLIFT DRIVING SYSTEM
A multi-dimensional adjustable forklift driving system includes a cab in which a steering wheel control system, a base plate control system and a pedal system are provided; where the steering wheel control system includes a steering wheel diverter and a first telescopic adjustment device, which is connected to the steering wheel diverter to drive the steering wheel diverter to move; the base plate control system includes a base plate assembly and a second telescopic adjustment device connected to the base plate assembly to drive the base plate assembly to move up and down; the pedal system includes a pedal body and a third telescopic adjustment device connected to the pedal body to drive the pedal body to move. The multi-dimensional adjustable forklift driving system is capable of creating a relatively large space, thereby facilitating the driver getting on or off the vehicle.
Column cover unit
A column cover unit may include: a column cover configured to cover a steering column of a vehicle and comprising a first cover portion and a second cover portion, wherein a boundary between the first cover portion and the second cover portion extends from a front end of the column cover at a front portion of the vehicle toward a rear portion of the vehicle; and a contact member configured to separate the first cover portion and the second cover portion from each other at the boundary by contacting the column cover when the column cover is moved toward the front portion of the vehicle with the steering column.
VEHICLE
A vehicle includes a steering column connected to a steering wheel, a column cover that covers the steering column, and an air duct that is disposed inside an instrument panel and passes in front of the column cover. Buckling strength of the air duct in a vehicle body front-rear direction in front of the steering wheel is lower than buckling strength of the column cover in the vehicle body front-rear direction.
Steering device
A steering device according to an aspect of the present invention includes an outer shaft, an inner shaft, an outer column, and an inner column. The inner shaft has a sliding portion configured to be capable of being inserted into the outer shaft, and a bearing-mounting portion that is connected to the sliding portion in an axial direction thereof and is configured not to be capable of being inserted into the outer shaft. In the bearing-mounting portion, rear bearings are disposed with an interval therebetween in the axial direction.
