Abstract: A brake system of an off-road vehicle includes a hand brake lever, a foot brake lever and a master cylinder. The hand brake lever can control both front and rear brake calipers by causing brake fluid to be input into an input chamber of the master cylinder, causing brake fluid pressure to increase in both primary and secondary chambers and brake fluid to flow out of both primary and secondary output ports. The foot brake lever can also control both the front and rear brake calipers via the master cylinder. A control system has an unlocking base station and a control module. The unlocking base station is capable of being wirelessly paired with a hand-carried transmitter. The control module will start the prime mover system only after assessment of a distance between the unlocking base station and the hand-carried transmitter based on a signal received from the hand-carried transmitter.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an optical fiber connector, comprising an integrated ferrule assembly and an integrated outer housing assembly, the ferrule assembly being adapted to be fitted into the housing assembly. The ferrule assembly at least comprises an inner housing, a spring, a multi-hole ferrule, a multi-fiber optical cable, a sleeve and a thermal shrinkable tube. The housing assembly at least comprises an outer housing, an outer tail tube and an outer protection cap.

Abstract: An off-road vehicle includes a frame, a vehicle cover, a prime mover assembly, an intake manifold, and an electrical control unit. An intake seat for the intake manifold is positioned above one of the rear side plates of the vehicle cover. An air filter for the intake manifold is positioned behind a rear baffle of the vehicle cover, which in turn is positioned behind the seat(s). The rear baffle defines an air filter access port, allowing the filter element in the air filter to be accessed and changed from within the cabin. Covers of the air filter access port and the air filter allow changing of the filter element without requiring any tools.

Abstract: A method that includes heating a bar having an outer diameter and a length to a first temperature for a first time; extruding the heated bar to form a hollow blank having a wall thickness; forming a semi-finished blank by closing one end; bending the semi-finished blank to have an angle between first and second parts of the semi-finished blank; placing the bent semi-finished blank in a die, which is heated to a second temperature; forming a shell by injecting a gas onto or into the bent semi-finished blank after closing the die through a gas inlet in the die at a pressure for a second time, which causes the bent semi-finished blank to fit a cavity of the bathroom hardware shell shaping die; removing the shell from the die and forming a water faucet hole therein; and plating an outer surface of the shell with a coating.
