Abstract: A motor generator has a rotor directly coupled to a crankshaft and a stator disposed around the rotor. A shield plate is disposed between coils of the stator and an internal combustion engine. A first partition and a second partition are disposed between the coils and a flywheel positioned adjacent to a clutch mechanism.

Abstract: A method of operating a wheelchair during an un-recline process involves a wheelchair having tilt and recline functions, the wheelchair including a seat frame, a tilt actuator for tilting the seat frame, a back frame, a recline actuator for reclining the back frame. A sensor for determining the angle of recline is provided. A controller for controlling the tilt actuator and recline actuator is also provided. The controller is provided with a plurality of preprogrammed sequences for moving the seat frame and the back frame during an unrecline procedure. The sequences include tilting the seat frame as an initial part of the unrecline sequence, wherein the sequences are a function of the initial angle of recline at the initiation of the recline sequence. An initial angle of recline at the initiation of a recline sequence is determined, and the back frame is unreclined according to one of the preprogrammed sequences in response to the determined initial angle of recline.

Abstract: An airbag module has at least two housing parts securely connected to each other by a mechanical catch connection. At least one catch hook is arranged on the first housing part and at least one tab with a corresponding catch opening is arranged in the second housing part. During the latching together of the two housing parts, the catch hook engages the corresponding catch opening. At least one ramp is arranged on the first housing part, opposite the catch hook, which ramp rises in the insertion direction of the second housing. The ramp rises in the direction in which the second housing part is moved toward the first housing part during assembly. During the assembly of the first housing part with the second housing part, the tab of the second housing part comes into contact with the ramp during the latching and is deflected by the ramp in the direction of the catch hook. The deflection of the tab results in the catch opening being deflected or pushed in the direction of the catch hook.

Abstract: An electric motor vehicle includes: a floor frame with the front and rear portions raised; four wheels arranged, two at the front and two at the rear of the floor frame; a steering handle projected upward in the front portion for steering the front two wheels; an electric motor for driving the two rear wheels; an inverted U-shaped seat frame projected upward in the rear portion; and a seat with a backrest, adjustable in height and mounted on the seat frame. A rear-side housing is attached on the rear side of the seat frame. In this housing the electric motor, a controller and a charger are arranged in this order from the bottom while a cooling fan with a louver is arranged in the upper portion of the housing.
