Abstract: An adjustment mechanism for a motor vehicle seat includes an annular motor with an inner nut housed in a rotor, a bracket attached to the seat, the annular motor being positioned in the bracket, and a lead screw that is threaded through the inner nut. When the annular motor is activated the rotor as well as the inner nut rotate about the lead screw resulting in relative translational motion of the bracket and hence the seat relative to the lead screw.

Abstract: One general aspect includes a device control switch for a panel assembly, including: a switch base mounted to the panel assembly; a switch button, tiltably mounted to the switch base, the switch button configured to tilt away from a default position relative to a horizontal axis, the switch button including a nib; a flexibend sensor fixed to a portion of the switch base, the flexibend sensor in substantial contact with the nib via spring force; and where slight tilting of the switch button away from the default position will cause the flexibend sensor to deflect and remain in substantial contact with the nib as the nib moves with the switch button relative to the horizontal axis.
