Abstract: A connection box comprises a box body and a plug-in panel disposed on a top portion of the box body. The box body includes a guiding groove therein. The guiding groove extends from the top portion of the box body into an interior of the box body. A shielding member is slidably received in the guiding groove. The guiding groove and the shielding member in the box body permit the plug-in panel to be reliably covered, thereby avoiding dusts or any liquid from entering the plug-in hole and causing short circuit. The guiding groove has several sections, such that the shielding member can be suitably received in the box body, thereby reducing the overall volume of the box body, reducing the amount of material of the box body, and increasing the aesthetics of the overall connection box.

Abstract: A lifting socket comprises a housing including a chamber having an opening in an upper end thereof. A lifting base is disposed in the chamber and includes a casing and a transmission device for vertically moving the lifting base relative to the housing.

Abstract: A flight control system includes an active control inceptor, a flight control computer, and a force trim release. The active control inceptor includes a control member movable from a first position to a second position to command a vehicle-body rate and including a detent position that holds an attitude. The flight control computer generates a trim command from the second position, a reference position, and a vehicle-body state. With the force trim release selected when the control member is moved from the first position to the second position, the first position is designated as the reference position and the second position is designated as the detent position. Upon deselection of the force trim release with the control member at the second position, the second position is designated as the reference position and the trim command is designated as the detent position.
