20080241813 | Method and apparatus for teaching the installation of vehicle protective coverings - A method and apparatus for teaching installers the proper technique for adhesively bonding a protective covering to an exterior portion of a vehicle. The apparatus of the invention includes a training cover constructed from a static-cling material and having the shape of the protective covering that is to be adhesively bonded to the exterior portion of the vehicle and one that can be easily removed from the automobile surface by applying a pulling force in a direction away from the vehicle. | 10-02-2008 |
20090053684 | Seatbelt demonstration kit and method for teaching proper seatbelt usage - A seatbelt kit for demonstrating and educating proper seatbelt usage to at least one individual. The seatbelt kit includes at least one retractor, at least one latch plate, at least one segment of webbing and at least one seatbelt buckles The kit also includes a manual for instructing at least one individual on the proper usage of at least one seatbelt component provided in the seatbelt demonstration kit. A method for educating the at least one individual on proper usage of a seatbelt is disclosed. | 02-26-2009 |
20120282589 | Air bag simulator / educational device and method - An air bag simulator device essentially functions to educate drivers on proper seat-body position relative to a vehicular air bag deployment zone. The air bag simulator device comprises an air bag-simulating envelope, sized and shaped to simulate a deployed driver side, vehicular air bag. The air bag-simulating envelope defines a certain volumetric space filled with certain matter. The air bag-simulating envelope is positionable adjacent a vehicular steering wheel for visually demonstrating to a user the volumetric space otherwise occupied by a deployed driver side vehicular air bag. The driver, having the air bag simulating device in position, may thus properly position his or her seat and/or body to accommodate the air bag simulating device. Once having learned to anticipate the volumetric space defined by the air bag simulating device, the driver may repeat the process so as to avoid being struck by a vehicular air bag during a deployment. | 11-08-2012 |
20130224721 | METHOD TO GRAPHICALLY DISPLAY A VEHICLE CONDITION - A method for graphically displaying a vehicle condition within an automotive vehicle is disclosed. The method includes the steps of receiving information from a sensor on a vehicle regarding a vehicle condition. The vehicle condition is measured against a predetermined level for that specified vehicle condition. The method then determines if the vehicle condition is above the predetermined level. If the vehicle condition is above the predetermined level, the method then transmits information regarding the vehicle condition to a processor connected to a display screen. The method then proceeds to graphically display the vehicle condition on a vehicle within the vehicle by means of a graphical replication of an image replication of the actual vehicle condition in the actual vehicle being used. | 08-29-2013 |
20140093861 | FOUR BAR DRIVE LINK SYSTEM SIMULATOR - This invention relates to a mechanical fixture which simulates a four bar link drive system for pedal driven scooters and bicycles and the resulting drive system. A four bar drive link system simulator has a frame assembly, a proximal hinge attachment bracket, a bottom bracket simulator | 04-03-2014 |
20150072336 | Four Bar Drive Link Simulator - This invention relates to a mechanical fixture which simulates a four bar link drive system for pedal driven scooters and bicycles and the resulting drive system. A four bar drive link system simulator has a frame assembly, a proximal hinge attachment bracket, a bottom bracket simulator, a pair of crank levers, a pair of coupling levers and a pair of pedal levers. The frame assembly has a plurality of guide rails, including at least a proximal hinge adjustment rail, and a frame rail. The proximal hinge attachment bracket is connected to the proximal hinge adjustment rail. The bottom bracket simulator is attached or otherwise connected to the frame simulator rail. | 03-12-2015 |
20150339934 | CRASHABLE INFLATABLE - An inflatable device configured to be used in connection with vehicle testing and demonstrations. The inflatable comprises one or more inflatable membranes for enclosing air or other gases to form any number of possible shapes. One or more interior walls having holes for adequate air flow, provide added structural support for the inflatable. One or more bladders attached to a bottom of the inflatable are used to provide added stability for the inflatable, and to prevent unwanted movement. One or more light-emitting devices may be mounted to the inflatable to simulate a vehicle's lights for the purpose of testing or demonstrating collision avoidance systems. Materials chosen to simulate traffic obstacles may be removably mounted onto the inflatable or a sleeve enclosing the inflatable to simulate such traffic obstacles. | 11-26-2015 |
