Abstract:
A vehicle including a system for intuitive control of a vehicle component is disclosed. The vehicle may include the vehicle component, a sensor unit associated with the vehicle component that is configured to detect a touch command applied to the sensor unit by a user, a controller, and a drive. The controller may be operatively coupled to the sensor unit and the drive may be coupled to the vehicle component. The controller may generate a control signal based on the touch command applied to the sensor unit and may cause the drive to alter a condition of the vehicle component in response to the control signal.
Abstract:
A direction switchable ratchet device for a door operator is provided. The door operator includes an electric motor, an electromagnetic brake and the direction switchable ratchet device. The direction switchable ratchet device comprises a first and second direction restricting devices and a manually operable mechanism. A drive shaft of the electric motor is braked by a brake baffle disk when the electric motor is electrically de-energized and is released when the electric motor is electrically energized. The first and second direction restricting devices are provided to prevent the drive shaft from being rotated clockwise and counter-clockwise respectively by holding the brake baffle disk. In the event of power failure, the manually operable mechanism is effective to open the door once a pawl of the direction restricting device at the free side is retracted. The manually operable mechanism of the door operator is prevented from being incorrectly mounted in a cost-effective manner.
Abstract:
An electrostatic switch controller, comprising: a contact sensing sensor configured to sense presence of contact of a person to a contact portion when the person performs an operation; a pressure sensing sensor configured to sense a pressure applied to the contact portion; and a control part configured to determine whether the contact to the contact portion is made by at least a portion of a body of the person, based on a result of the sensing by the contact sensing sensor and the pressure sensing sensor.
Abstract:
A window regulator apparatus may include a first operation part including a first housing with which a bar-shaped central shaft may be through-connected, and a first elastic member which may be connected inside of the first housing, a second operation part disposed inwardly of the first operation part and including a second housing with which the central shaft may be through-connected, and a second elastic member connected inside of the second housing to be slidably formed in a longitudinal direction of the central shaft from above the central shaft, and a connection part selectively connecting or disconnecting the first operation part and the second operation part to or from each other.
Abstract:
The invention is a security trolley lock for garage door openers. The trolley lock is a “U-shaped” element that removably attaches to a garage door trolley for preventing lateral access to the release lever of a garage door opener system. The trolley lock has a pass-through opening for allowing attachment of said trolley to a garage door trolley and another pass-through opening for receiving a lock means preventing unauthorized actuation of the release lever.
Abstract:
A clutch switching device for electric rolling doors contains: a housing, a rotating plate, and a shifting bar. The rotating plate is provided in the housing for connecting with the clutch pulling cord. The shifting bar is coupled with the rotating plate and is pulled to drive the rotating plate to move toward a manual mode position or an automatic mode position. The rotating plate has a wrenching portion for matching with a wrench tool so as to wrench the rotating plate. The housing includes a movable fixing element, the rotating plate has a first positioning aperture and a second positioning aperture, such that when the rotating plate is located at a manual mode position, the first positioning aperture aligns and retains with the movable fixing element; when the rotating plate is located at the automatic mode position, the second positioning aperture aligns and retains with the movable fixing element.
Abstract:
A door assembly, in particular for a helicopter, has a post; a door fitted to the post by a first and second hinge arranged on an outer wall of the post, so as to rotate about a hinge axis to open and close a door opening; and an emergency release device having a release handle, and a stem which extends through the post along a release axis substantially perpendicular to the hinge axis, rotates axially, in response to operation of the release handle, from a first to a second angular position to detach the door from the post, and is fixed at one axial end to the first hinge; the release handle being connected to the stem to rotate together with the stem about its release axis.
Abstract:
A door device for vehicles, comprising a door arranged at a side of a body of a vehicle, the door having two end portions in a horizontal direction of the body. A first connecting member is arranged at the one end portion of the door, a second connecting member is arranged at the other end portion of the body; and a third connecting member arranged at a lower end portion of the door in a height direction of the body. The first, second and third connecting members arranged at the door are connectable with the body. The first and second connecting members have upper ends with these upper ends and the third connecting member arranged to provide a truss structure which connects the door and the body and provide rigidity against stress applied from the body to the door in a state where the door is closed.
Abstract:
A vehicle door with a variable latching function which holds the vehicle door in a desired latched position by applying a latching torque using a controllable damper is described. An evaluation and control unit detects the desired latched positions by evaluating an instantaneous door movement sensed by a sensor system and actuates the damper using an actuator element. The evaluation and control unit releases the latched position after a corresponding activation is detected. The variable latching function acts on the vehicle door within a functional region which extends to a predefined opening region between a first opening angle and a maximum opening angle when the vehicle door drops below a predefined speed or comes to a standstill within the functional region.
Abstract:
A motor vehicle door arrangement with at least one motor vehicle door and a drive for motorized movement of the motor vehicle door from the closed position into the open position and from the open position into the closed position and with a control for triggering the drive, the control being assigned an optionally actuatable mobile part which the user generally carries and which interacts with the control means over a wireless transmission link when the user approaches the motor vehicle, enhanced actuation automatically carrying out opening and/or a closing as triggered by a predetermined process of use and without the necessity of actuating the mobile part. With respect to enhanced actuation, the control means, especially with the vehicle stopped, can be moved into the activated and deactivated states, and can be triggered by the predetermined usage process exclusively when the control means is in the activated state.
