Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrically adjustable steering column for a motor vehicle, comprising a supporting unit, by which a positioning unit is adjustably held, an adjustment device with an adjustment motor, said adjustment device being designed for adjusting the positioning unit relative to the supporting unit, a mechanical adjustment stop, which mechanically limits an adjustment of the positioning unit in a first adjustment direction, and a control unit. The control unit is designed here to activate the adjustment motor, wherein a virtual adjustment stop is defined, said adjustment stop being located upstream of the mechanical adjustment stop with respect to the first adjustment direction. The steering column is designed here for adjusting a positioning unit.

Abstract: A collapsible kayak may include a single-piece hull including a plurality of crease lines along which the hull is foldable. A floorboard lines a midship portion of the hull between a bow portion and a stern portion, and the floorboard includes a base and a pair of outboard walls permanently fixed at distal ends to port and starboard gunwales of the hull. The bow, stem, and midship portions are configured as a tri-fold, such that the bow portion and the stern portion of the kayak are foldable toward each other to overlap the midship portion of the hull when collapsed.

Abstract: A collapsible watercraft comprised of a single high-strength foldable panel that is creased in a predetermined pattern to form living hinges, the panel being foldable to transform from self-defined compact knocked down package, into a rigid three dimensional kayak form. Other removable rigid structural members, bulkheads, seat assembly and floorboards help maintain the shape and integrity of the shell.

Abstract: Support devices for the shanks of skier's legs wherein levers on opposite sides of and parallel to the shank are pivoted about an axis at ankle height and secured to the shank just beneath the knee by a flexible strap. Two rods are pivoted to the lever arrangement on each side. In the case of a single lever the rods are pivoted above and below the lever axis. For parallel levers one rod is pivoted above the axis of one lever and the other rod below the axis of the other lever. In each case the rods pass through a resilient compressible block. When the shank swings forward a stop on one rod compresses the block, while the other rod moves freely in the opposite direction. When the shank swings backward the roles of the rods are reversed.

Abstract: A support for the lower leg of a skier comprises an arm pivotally connected at one end to the upper part of the lower leg and at the other end to the ski through jaws gripping the ski-boot and firmly connected with the ski by the pressure of the boot sole thereon. Pivoting of the arm is controlled by a double acting resilient device which is adjustable to vary the force on the arm and to vary the neutral position of the arm.
