摘要: A vehicle seat connector assembly comprising a first connector coupled to the seat of the vehicle and including a first inductive coil. A second connector is coupled to the vehicle and includes a second inductive coil. The first and second connectors are positioned relative to each other into a first relationship with the first and second connectors coupled to each other and the first and second inductive coils positioned opposite each other to define a closed inductive coil circuit and a second relationship with the first and second connectors and the first and second inductive coils separated from each other to define an open inductive coil circuit. A third inductive coil is located on the vehicle seat belt buckle and a coil cable extends between the first inductive coil of the first connector and the third inductive coil.

摘要: A brake pedal assembly comprising a pedal and a pedal resistance force member operably coupled to the pedal. A damper pedal resistance force module defines an interior fluid-filled cavity. A shaft extends through the damper module and includes a piston mounted thereon and moveable through the fluid-filled cavity to generate a damper resistance force. A spring pedal resistance force module is adapted to generate a spring pedal resistance force. A pedal force sensing module is mounted to the pedal resistance force member. A pedal position sensor is mounted to the pedal resistance force member. A pedal force sensor is mounted to the pedal resistance force member.

摘要: A dielectric waveguide filter with a first solid block of dielectric material covered with a layer of conductive material and defining a plurality of resonators. A first RF signal input/output through-hole is defined in a first end resonator of the plurality of resonators of the first block of dielectric material. A second solid block of dielectric material is coupled to the first solid block of dielectric material. The second block of dielectric material is covered with a layer of conductive material and defines a plurality of resonators including first and second adjacent end resonators separated by an RF signal isolator for preventing the transmission of an RF signal between the first and second end resonators. An RF signal coupling window provides a coupling between the first end resonator of the plurality of resonators of the first block of dielectric material and the first end resonator of the second block of dielectric material whereby the first end resonator of the second block of dielectric material defines a trap resonator.

摘要: A vehicle pedal assembly comprising a pedal housing. A rotatable pedal includes a drum extending into the pedal housing. The drum includes a friction contact surface. A pedal friction pad extends in the pedal housing and includes a pedal friction surface in contact with the friction contact surface on the drum. The pedal friction surface is shaped and positioned to provide for a line frictional contact between the pedal friction surface and the drum. In one embodiment, the pedal friction surface in contact with the drum is arc-shaped. In one embodiment, the pedal friction surface includes a first curved converging segment, the arc-shaped surface segment defines the second surface segment and extends between the first and a third straight converging segment.

摘要: A vehicle pedal sensor assembly for use in a vehicle brake pedal including a base and a pedal arm pivotally mounted to the pedal base. A sensor housing includes a non-contacting pedal position sensor and a contacting pedal force sensor. The sensor housing is mounted to the base of the vehicle brake pedal. A magnet is mounted to the pedal arm. The pedal position sensor senses a change in the magnitude and/or direction of the magnetic field generated by the magnet in response to a change in the position of the pedal arm for determining the position of the pedal arm. A pedal force application member exerts a force against the pedal force sensor in response to the change in the position of the pedal arm for determining the position of the pedal arm. The force sensor may be a piezoelectric element, a load cell, or a strain gauge.

摘要: A multi-band RF monoblock filter including at least three RF signal filters defined in the monoblock of dielectric material by resonators defined in part by through-holes extending through the block. In one embodiment, two of the RF signal filters are in a co-linear and side-by-side relationship and the third filter is in a parallel and side-by side relationship with one of the two other RF signal filters. A pattern of conductive material defines two end and one interior RF signal input/output on the block top surface. The end RF signal input/outputs are located at opposite ends of the block and the central RF signal input/output is located between the two co-linear and side-by-side RF filters. An RF signal is transmitted through the one end RF signal input/output, the two parallel and side-by-side RF signal filters, and the central RF signal input/output and also through the other end RF signal input/output, one of the co-linear and side-by-side RF filters, and the central RF signal input/output.

摘要: A radio frequency antenna with a two-piece sealing ferrule. The antenna includes a center antenna and an outer tube surrounding the center antenna. A mounting nut surrounds and is slidable relative to the outer tube. An outer ferrule surrounds and is slidable relative to the outer tube. An inner ferrule that is separate from the outer ferrule surrounds and is fixed to the outer tube. A mating nut is secured to the mounting nut. The threading of the mounting nut and the mating nut together results in the wedging between the inner and outer ferrules which results in the exertion of a first compressive force by the inner ferrule against the outer tube for sealing the inner ferrule and the outer tube and the exertion of a second compressive force of the inner ferrule against the mating nut for sealing the inner ferrule and the mating nut.
