CPC Class B62D

A motor vehicle seat includes a backrest portion a first body, a second body and a mechanism configured to coupled the backrest portion to the first body in a movable manner between a first position, in which the backrest portion is arranged between the first and the second body, the latter defining a base extending crosswise to the backrest portion in order to support a passenger seating with the back resting against the backrest portion on a first surface of the backrest portion, and a second position, in which the backrest portion has a second surface opposite the first surface and facing the second body; wherein the first surface, in the second position of the backrest portion, defines a wind deflector.

A system includes data processing hardware and memory hardware. The memory hardware is in communication with the data processing hardware and stores instructions that when executed on the data processing hardware cause the data processing hardware to perform certain operations. The operations include receiving a temperature corresponding to a battery, and determining whether the temperature is greater than a predetermined threshold temperature. The operations also include, when the temperature is greater than the predetermined threshold temperature, actuating an ejector to eject the battery from a power supply assembly.

A chain connector for use with a tailgate chain linkage of a machine. The chain connector comprises a first flange, a second flange and a web. The chain connector provided with a first pair of apertures for coupling the chain connector to the machine, and a plurality of second pairs of apertures for coupling the chain connector to a chain. An effective length of the tailgate chain linkage may be adjusted by coupling the chain with a selected second pair of apertures since the plurality of second pairs of apertures are disposed at a plurality of distances from the first pair of apertures.

A variable spoiler apparatus including a spoiler unit movably provided in a rear section of a vehicle and configured to extend or be tilted toward a direction opposite from a forward traveling direction of the vehicle according to a traveling mode of the vehicle and a rear lamp provided in the spoiler unit and configured to emit light toward the direction opposite from the forward traveling direction.

A blind spot visualization system and method for eliminating blind spots for an operator of a vehicle. The blind spots are caused by obstructions in the vehicle. A first image based on a first frequency range, and a second image based on a second frequency range, is generated. The images of the first frequency range and the images of the second frequency range are combined to create a composite image. Displays on the obstruction, facing the operator, receive the composite image. The displays display the images to the operator so that the blind spots, caused by the obstructions in the vehicle, are eliminated.

A tracked vehicle comprising a first and a second track, a mechanical power generator assembly; an assembly of operating devices coupled to the generator assembly; a first and a second drive wheel coupled respectively to the first and to the second track, and to the generator assembly; a user interface to receive inputs from an operator; and a control unit coupled to the user interface to receive inputs; the control unit being coupled to the mechanical power generator assembly and being configured to enable or disable starting of the mechanical power generator assembly.
