The need for maintenance regarding wire stretching and position displacement between a throttle valve and an operation member is eliminated. A wire throttle adjustment device 1 is for performing open-close adjustment of a throttle valve by pull operation of a wire 2. The wire throttle adjustment device 1 includes an operation member 10 connected to an end part 2A of the wire 2 and configured to perform the pull operation of the wire 2. The operation member 10 includes an action part 11 that is elastically deformable by the pull operation of the wire 2 in a fully-opened state of the throttle valve. The action part 11 includes an elastically-deformable elastic arm part 12 configured to swing together with the operation part 15 and extending from the pivotally-supported part 14, and the end part of the wire 14 is connected to a tip part of the elastic arm part 12.

Various implementations include apparatuses and methods for subcutaneous sensing. Certain implementations include an apparatus having: a biocompatible housing defining a longitudinal axis; a subcutaneous sensor; a circuit board; a controller; and an ultrasound transmitter disposed within the biocompatible housing and including a tubular piezoelectric transducer extending longitudinally along the longitudinal axis.

A first operation mechanism 3 includes a first driving source 30 and a second driving source 31 based on a drive command, a first driving mechanism 32 which inclines a left-side traveling pedal 1c, a second driving mechanism 33 which inclines a left-side option pedal 1e, and a first transmission mechanism 34 and a second transmission mechanism 35 which transmit driving forces from the first driving source 30 and the second driving source 31 to the first driving mechanism 32 and the second driving mechanism 33. The first driving mechanism 32 and the second driving mechanism 33 are arranged apart from the first driving source 30 and the second driving source 31.

A third axis a3 is an axis which is perpendicular to a straight line, the straight line connecting a tip of a tip portion 5b of a fourth operating lever 5 tilted to the maximum extent to one side in a first direction and the tip of the tip portion 5b of the fourth operating lever 5 tilted to the maximum extent to the other side, and passes through a tilt pivot point c which is a pivot point of a tilt of the fourth operating lever 5. A first actuator 72 and a second actuator 73 of a first operating mechanism 7 are disposed at least partially overlapping each other when viewed in the direction of the third axis a3.

An actuation system used to actuate two buttons on a remote control device, such as a key fob, based upon commands that are generated from a mobile device. The actuation system includes an outer housing that defines an isolation enclosure. The actuation system includes a support frame that allows the vertical position of the button actuator to be manually adjusted. The lateral and longitudinal position of the actuator can also be manually adjusted, as can the distance between a pair of actuator tips. The controller receives the command signals from the mobile device and converts the command signals into actuation commands that are used to activate a servo motor to move the one of two actuation tips into contact with one of the buttons of the key fob. The system includes a RF receiver and transmitter to communicate a vehicle command signal for receipt by the vehicle.

An implantable device for sensing data includes a subcutaneous sensor configured to couple with an implant. The implantable device is operably configured to wirelessly and transcutaneously transmit data sensed by the subcutaneous sensor. The sensor may be powered wirelessly and transcutaneously. Transmission of data and/or power may be provided by ultrasound sound waves. The sensor may be in electrical communication with a piezoelectric transducer configured to receive the ultrasound sound waves.
