A glove box according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a cover that is embedded in a dashboard of a vehicle in a state in which a front side of the cover is open, a housing that is accommodated in a state in which one open surface is covered by the cover and that selectively opens or closes the front side of the cover through a preset rotational trajectory, a plurality of transfer links that are arranged between both outer ends of the housing and both inner ends of the cover and transfer the housing along the rotational trajectory, a damper that is connected to the transfer links and corrects a rotational force of the housing, and a locking member that is connected between the cover and the housing and selectively locks the housing from the cover.

A fluid damper for modulating a retaining force of a seat belt is provided. The fluid damper includes an outer cylinder and an inner cylinder. The inner cylinder encloses an inner space. The fluid damper includes a piston shiftable in the inner space. The fluid damper includes a duct. The duct conductively connects a front fluid chamber disposed in front of the piston to a rear fluid chamber disposed behind the piston and/or a reservoir for the damping fluid. The duct includes an outer duct portion and an inner duct portion. The inner cylinder is deflectable from a rest position by a force acting on the piston so that the deflection of the inner cylinder causes an adjustment of an overlap of the outer duct portion and the inner duct portion depending on the magnitude of the force.

Provided is a damper capable of damping a moving member which reciprocates along an axis, using a damping force having a hysteresis property. A damper includes a cylindrical housing into which a push rod is to be inserted in the direction of an axis thereof, and a damping mechanism placed in the housing and capable of damping the push rod by a damping force having a hysteresis property, wherein the damper is to be attached using a master cylinder mount space of a clutch pedal unit. In the damping mechanism of the damper, engagement between a helical cam groove formed in an inner wall of the housing and a guide protrusion formed on an outer circumference of a rotatable friction disk causes reciprocating linear motion of the push rod to be converted into rotating motion of the rotatable friction disk, and other friction disks, placed on both sides of the rotatable friction disk are pressed against respective sliding surfaces, of the rotating friction disk by an elastic force of a coil spring depending on an amount of displacement of the push rod.

A torque fluctuation inhibiting device includes first and second rotatable rotors, a centrifugal element and a cam mechanism. The first rotor includes an accommodation portion. The second rotor is rotatable with and relative to the first rotor. The centrifugal element is disposed in the accommodation portion to be radially movable, and receives a centrifugal force generated by rotation of the first or second rotor. The cam mechanism receives the centrifugal force acting on the centrifugal element, and converts the centrifugal force into a circumferential force directed to reduce rotational phase difference between the first and second rotors. The cam mechanism includes a cam surface provided on the centrifugal element, and a cam follower which contacts the cam surface. The cam follower transmits a force therethrough between the centrifugal element and the second rotor. The centrifugal element is radially moved while rolling on an inner wall surface of the accommodation portion.

In a vehicle suspension, a preload is adjusted by selective engagement of cam surfaces of different heights with a cam receiving part by rotation of an adjuster part, the adjuster part includes a vertical wall part erected in an axial direction of a spring from a spring receiving part and an engaging part with which a tool to rotate the adjuster part is to be engaged, and the engaging part includes a first engaging part formed by a gap between the plurality of vertical wall parts disposed separately from each other in a circumferential direction of the adjuster part and a second engaging part formed by a hole penetrating the vertical wall part.

A multi-mode air shock is disclosed herein. The air shock includes an air spring having a primary air chamber, and a damper having an insertion end to telescope within the primary air chamber and a coupler to couple with a portion of a vehicle. An adjuster housing is fixedly coupled to an end of the air spring opposite of the damper, the adjuster housing having a secondary air chamber in communication with the primary air chamber and a mounting structure to couple with a different portion of the vehicle. There is a bulkhead with a valve to open or close the fluid communication between the primary air chamber and the secondary air chamber. The air shock also includes a tertiary air chamber in fluid communication with the secondary air chamber but not in fluid communication with the primary air chamber except via the secondary air chamber.

The invention relates to a device for damping vibrations, for a motor vehicle transmission drivetrain, comprising: a first element and a second element (2) that are rotationally movable around a rotation axis X; elastic damping means having an elastic blade (13, 14) mounted rotationally integrally with the first element (3); and a rolling body movable with respect to the second element so that a curvilinear trajectory can be executed on at least a predetermined angular sector (A), the curvilinear movement of the rolling body with respect to the second element being accompanied by a movement of the rolling body on the elastic blade, causing the latter to flex.

The invention relates to a torque transmission device, more particularly for a motor vehicle, comprising a torque input element (15, 17) and a torque output element (8) able to pivot about an axis (X) with respect to one another, at least one elastic leaf (22), rotationally coupled to the torque output element (8) or to the torque input element (15, 17) respectively, the elastic leaf (22) being able to be elastically and radially held to rest on a supporting member (18) carried by the torque input element (15, 17) or the torque output element (8) respectively, the elastic leaf (22) being able to bend upon rotation of the torque input element (15, 17) with respect to the torque input element (8).

A clutch disc includes an input part, an output part, and a vibration damper. The vibration damper includes a first part with a first flange area, a second part with a second flange area, a spring device, and first and second intermediate parts. The intermediate parts are coupled to the first flange area and the second flange area by respective slide devices such that movement of the intermediate parts relative one another is inhibited by the spring device. The flange areas are each in operative connection with the input part and the output part such that a load acting on the input part that changes from either rotational direction to an opposite rotational direction moves the first flange area relative to the second flange area in a single fixed direction of movement.

A main orifice plate assembly may be configured to transition a multi-actor damping system from a first damping actor configuration to a second damping actor configuration. The multi-actor damping system may be used in a shock strut assembly to alter a damping curve of the shuck strut assembly. The main orifice plate assembly may be a part of a main orifice assembly including an orbital cam. The main orifice plate may include a flow restrictor. The flow restrictor may be configured to retract or deploy in response to main orifice plate rotating about the orbital cam. The first damping actor configuration may correspond to a first damping curve. The second damping actor configuration may correspond to a second damping curve. The first damping curve being different than the second damping curve.
