| 20090282941 | DRIVING SIMULATION DEVICE FOR SIMULATING A DRIVING GAME - A driving simulation device for simulating a driving game includes a mounting frame, a coupler shaft journaled to the mounting frame, extending along a coupling axis and cooperating with a horizontal direction to define an inclined acute angle, a seat body fixed on the coupler shaft above the mounting frame and having an extending direction, a seating portion and a driving portion disposed on the seat body along the extending direction. The extending direction of the seat body cooperates with the coupling axis to define a deviating acute angle therebetween. A swinging action of a rider on the seat body relative to the mounting frame results in turning of the seat body about the coupling axis, which, in turn, causes swinging action of the driving portion and the seating portion such that a swinging range of the driving portion is smaller than that of the seating portion. | 11-19-2009 |

| 20120024099 | INSTRUMENTS - An instrument including an elongate portion having a first part movable from a first configuration to a second, different configuration and a second part, at a different elongate extent along the elongate portion than the first part, movable from a first configuration to a second, different configuration, at least one of the parts including a control whereby a force required to move the first part from the first configuration towards the second configuration is less than the force required to move the second part from the first configuration towards the second configuration. A method of using the instrument. | 02-02-2012 |
| 20130145881 | KEY ASSEMBLY - A key assembly includes a key element and an engaging element. The key element has a main body including a number of elastic portions and a number of notches. The notches are defined at one side of the main body. The engaging element includes a number of latch portions protruding from one side of the engaging element. The latch portions mate in the notches. When the key element is operated, the elastic portions deformedly allow the latch portions to move out of or moving in the notches. | 06-13-2013 |
| 20150323953 | ACCELERATOR PEDAL UNIT - An accelerator pedal unit is known comprising an accelerator pedal, an actuator, and a control shaft via which the actuator can transmit a restoring torque to the accelerator pedal. The accelerator pedal unit can generate an additional restoring force which acts on the accelerator pedal, for example in order to regulate or limit the speed of a vehicle or to function as a warning device in the event of speeding. Disadvantageously, the actuator and the accelerator pedal are rigidly coupled to each other. As a result, brief losses of torque of the actuator, for example losses of torque of a brushed DC electric motor, are transmitted to the accelerator pedal with no change in their relative magnitude and are noticeable to the driver in a disruptive manner. In the accelerator pedal unit according to the invention, the actuator is mechanically decoupled from the accelerator pedal. According to the invention, the torque of the control shaft ( | 11-12-2015 |
| 20150323954 | ROTATING-LEVER-POSITION-HOLDING DEVICE - A position holding device for a rotating lever includes a rotating lever and a torsion spring. The rotating lever is elastically held at two positions, that is, a first position and a second position. The torsion spring includes a coiled part, and a first arm part and a second arm part each extending from the coiled part. The first arm part has a mountain portion formed thereon, and the second arm part has a reversely urging portion formed thereon. An urging force of the reversely urging portion is applied to the rotating lever as a braking force against an urging force of the mountain portion. Further, a regulating member is formed on a base member so as to abut against the first arm part when the rotating lever rotates toward the first position through a neutral position. | 11-12-2015 |
| 20150344099 | BICYCLE OPERATING APPARATUS - A bicycle operating apparatus is provided with a base member, a ratchet, a pawl member and an operating member. The ratchet is rotatably disposed around a ratchet axis, and biased in a first direction about the ratchet axis. The operating member moves the pawl member from a first position to a second position. The pawl member has a pawl portion and first and second support portions. The pawl portion engages with the ratchet teeth while the pawl member is in the second position to regulate rotation of the ratchet in the first direction. The first support portion pivotally supports the pawl member around a first axis as the pawl member moves from the first position to the second position. The second support portion pivotally supports the pawl member around a second axis while the pawl member is in the second position. | 12-03-2015 |
| 20150360940 | MICRO PICK UP ARRAY PIVOT MOUNT WITH INTEGRATED STRAIN SENSING ELEMENTS - Systems and methods for aligning a transfer head assembly with a substrate are disclosed. In an embodiment a pivot mount is used for generating a feedback signal in a closed-loop motion control system. In an embodiment, the pivot mount includes a plurality of spring arms, with each spring arm including a switch-back along an axial length of the spring arm such that a pair of first and second lengths of the spring arm are immediately adjacent the switch-back and are parallel to each other. A first strain sensing element is located at the first length, and a second strain sensing element is located at the second length. | 12-17-2015 |
| 20160023758 | ROTORCRAFT AUTOPILOT SYSTEM, COMPONENTS AND METHODS - An autopilot actuator includes first and second motors each including a rotatable motor output shaft such that either one or both of the motors can drive an actuator output shaft. An autopilot main unit enclosure is removably mounted to the helicopter proximate to a cyclic control and commonly houses autopilot actuators as well as main autopilot electronics. A cyclic vibration isolator is removably supported by an actuator shaft for co-rotation and coupled to the cyclic control to attenuate a cyclic vibration frequency at the actuator shaft while output rotations of the actuator shaft below a resonant frequency are coupled to the cyclic control. A force limited link includes first and second ends and a variable length between. The force limited link having a relaxed length when less than an unseating force is applied and the variable length changes when an applied force exceeds the unseating force to permit pilot override. | 01-28-2016 |
| 20160033989 | Tool Carrier for Setting Up and Placing a Tool For a Loader, and Method for Setting Up and Placing a Tool - The tool carrier disclosed herein has a locking device with a low degree of complexity, a low diversity of parts, and a high degree of reliability. By means of the completely automated locking process, the setting up of the tool on the tool carrier is considerably simplified for the operator or the driver, since neither has to leave the cabin any longer in order to lock the tool. The actuation of the setting up and holding devices by the tool during the setting up of the tool ensures that the locking device is used only if a tool is also set up. An erroneous movement of the lock into its locking position due to vibrations or by a movement of the tool carrier or the front loader without a set-up tool is effectively avoided. | 02-04-2016 |
