    摘要: This disclosure is directed to vehicle assemblies that include movable door assemblies. Examples of vehicle assemblies with movable door assemblies include charge port housing assemblies and fuel fill housing assemblies. An exemplary vehicle assembly may include an override retainer. The override retainer may include a flexible flap or clip that is configured to deflect or otherwise distort to release a latching assembly from the door assembly when a manual override force is applied to the door assembly.

    摘要: A vehicle includes a charging port, an electric power storage device configured to be charged with electric power supplied to the charging port from an outside of the vehicle, a charging lid configured to open and close the charging port, a lock device configured to switch between a lock state and an unlock state of the charging lid, and a controller configured to control the lock device. The controller is configured to perform control on the lock device such that switching between the lock state and the unlock state of the charging lid during traveling of the vehicle is not performed.

    摘要: A system and a method for controlling opening and closing of a charging door of a vehicle are provided. The system includes a switch sensor that is mounted at the charging door to receive a pressing signal when the charging door switch of the vehicle is pressed. A controller determines whether a door lock of the vehicle is in a locked state to operate the charging door switch of the vehicle. When the door lock of the vehicle is in an unlocked state and the charging door switch of the vehicle is continuously pressed for more than a predetermined time, the controller processes the received pressing signal to determine whether the received pressing signal received is caused by a user manipulation. The charging door is opened when the pressing signal is caused by the user manipulation.

    摘要: A linear reciprocating-motion apparatus includes at least one movable member (10, 30) supported by a housing (90) and being capable of undergoing linear reciprocating motion in a range that includes a first position, a second position, and a third position; a stopper (50) supported by the housing to be displaceable between a blocking position that blocks the at least one movable member and a nonblocking position that does not block the at least one movable member, and is displaced to the nonblocking position in response to a specific operation; an intermittent mechanism (100, 200) that interacts with movement of the at least one movable member and assumes a specific state once every two times that the at least one movable member moves to the third position; and a switch (SW1) that, in response to the specific state, is switched from a disconnected state or a connected state to the other thereof.

    摘要: An apparatus (1) for opening and closing a lid (lid body) of a vehicle includes a linearly-movable shaft (10) supported by a housing (90) such that the shaft (10) is linearly movable along, and nonrotatable around, an axial center (X10); and a rotary shaft (30) supported by the linearly-movable shaft (10) such that it is linearly movable along and rotatable around the axial center (X10). A stopper (50) is supported by the housing (90) and is displaceable between a blocking position at which the stopper (50) prohibits the linearly-movable shaft (10) from moving from a second position to a first position, and a nonblocking position at which the stopper (50) is separated from the linearly-movable shaft (10). The stopper (50) is biased toward the blocking position and displaces to the nonblocking position in response to a manual opening operation for displacing the lid to the open position.

    摘要: An advancing/retreating movement mechanism 1 of an advancing/retreating member includes: a lifter 3; a coil spring 5; a lock pin 7 that limits the movement of the lifter 3; a case 2 that accommodates the lifter 3 and the coil spring 5; an advance/retreat position control mechanism 9 that controls an advance position, a retreat position, and a reciprocating movement of the lifter 3; and a receiving seat 11 that receives the coil spring 5 so that the lifter 3 is biased. The receiving seat 11 is arranged in a rearward position side of the lifter 3. An engaging part 27a engaging the lock pin 7 is arranged to the lifter 3. When the lifter 3 moves to the retreat position, the engaging part 27a moves to a rearward side beyond the receiving seat 11 and moves to a position where the engaging part 27a can be engaged with the lock pin 7. Therefore, the size of the advancing/retreating member in a protruding/withdrawing direction can be made small.

    摘要: The invention relates to an actuation device for a flap mounted moveably on a component between a closed position and an opened position, in particular for a flap mounted moveably on a housing of an automobile, comprising: a first actuation part and a second actuation part, wherein the first actuation part is to be fastened on the flap and is moved together with the flap when the flap is moved between the closed position and the opened position, and wherein the second actuation part is to be fastened on the component, locking means with a locking reception provided on the first or second actuation part and a locking element provided on the other of first or second actuation part, wherein the locking element engages in the locking reception upon a movement of the first actuation part with the flap from its opened position into its closed position, whereby the locking element holds the first actuation part against a spring pretension in a locking position on the second actuation part, and a remote unlocking device, wherein the remote unlocking device comprises drive means, which can be actuated from a place distant from the actuation parts such that the locking element is retracted from the locking reception, whereby the first actuation part, driven by the spring pretension, disengages from the second actuation part and moves together with the flap at least partially into its opened position.
