Abstract: An electric parking stand has a frame (100), a leg assembly (200), and a planetary gear motor (300). The frame (100) has a pair of end plates (110) and a plurality of supporting rods (120) connected between the pair of end plates (110). The leg assembly (200) is pivoted with the respective end plates (110), and the leg assembly (200) has a sector gear (220). The planetary gear motor (300) is fixed to the supporting rods (120) and engaged with the sector gear (220). Thereby, the preassembled electric parking stand could be installed onto a motor cycle by screwing the respective end plates (110) to the motor cycle.

Abstract: An automotive seat rail includes a rail and an engaging structure. The engaging structure includes a fixing frame, an engaging member and an elastic member. The fixing frame includes a fixing portion and an abutting portion fixed to and abutting an inner rail respectively. The engaging member includes an engaging section, a base section, and a stress section sequentially coupled to each other and bent with respect to each other. The base section is pivotally coupled to the fixing frame, and the engaging section is engaged between the inner and outer rails. When the stress section is controlled by an external force, the engaging section is driven to release the engagement between the inner rail and the outer rail, so as to ensure the accurate action of the engaging structure and allow the engaging member to have better structural strength, smoother control, and more accurate engagement and disengagement effects.
