摘要： An adjustable steering column assembly comprises a steering column shroud (1, 2), a support bracket (4), and a clamp mechanism. The support bracket comprises two arms (5, 6) having a portion of the column shroud located therebetween. The clamp mechanism comprises a pin (8) that passes through slots (5a) in the arms and carries a fixed cam portion (10) and moving cam portion (11), relative rotation of the fixed cam portion and moving cam portion causing the clamp mechanism to move between a locked position and an unlocked position. The fixed cam portion has an anti-rotation feature that sits at least partially within one of the slots in one of the arms and which cooperates with the side walls (16a, 16b) of the slot to substantially prevent unwanted rotation of the fixed portion of the cam mechanism. The anti-rotation feature carries at least one contact portion (15; 24a, 25a; 36, 41) that in use contacts the side walls of the slot as the steering column is adjusted and the contact portion and side walls are configured such that in use the anti-rotation feature does not cause any significant permanent deformation of the side walls due to preferential deformation of the contact portion.

摘要： A remote sensor device comprises at least one sensor that produces an output signal indicative of the value of a measure, and a reflective display that is positioned such that it is visible along a line of sight from a remote location, the reflective display comprising at least two retro-reflective assemblies, each of which is arranged to reflect a variable fraction of radiation incident upon the reflective assembly back towards a source in response to respective control signals applied to the reflector assemblies. Each of the reflector assemblies preferentially reflects one wavelength of the incident radiation or preferentially removes at least one wavelength of the incident radiation that is not preferentially reflected or removed by the other reflector assembly. The device further comprises modulating means for modulating the control signals applied to the reflector assemblies as a function of the value of the output signal from the sensor so as to modulate the fractions of incident light reflected by the display.

摘要： A clamp assembly secures a fixed portion of a steering column assembly to a movable portion of a steering column. It comprises a rack of teeth carried by the moving portion and a rack of teeth (111, 112) carried by the fixed portion and an inner hollow toothed block (120) nested inside an outer hollow toothed block (130), each carrying at least one rack of teeth with the rack- of teeth on the inner block tracing the rack of teeth on the moving portion and the rack of teeth on the outer block facing the rack of teeth on the fixed portion. A retaining clip (180) provides a lost motion coupling between the retaining clip and the inner toothed block (120) and an independent motion coupling between the retaining clip and the outer toothed block (130). First, second and third springs (140, 150, 160) bias the teeth of the blocks (120, 130) into and out of engagement with the racks when locked and unlocked. The assembly helps prevent damage to the teeth with the springs permitting the damage force on the blocks to be independently absorbed.

摘要： An assembly comprises a male component (1) and a female component (2) which connect together to form a mechanical connection, the female component (2) being adapted to at least partially receive an end portion of the male component (1). The female component (2) has at least one bore which is adapted to receive a clamping pin (8) which can be tightened to clamp the female component (2) around the male component (1). A guide (12) is provided which is carried by the male component (1) and which defines at least one blocking region and one opening region (17), the opening region being aligned with the at least one bore (7) in the female component (2) to permit insertion of the clamping pin (8) into the bore when the male component (1) and female component (2) are correctly aligned and the blocking region otherwise preventing insertion of the clamping pin when the male component is inserted into the female component with an incorrect alignment. The guide (12) assists in achieving correct alignment of the male and female components during assembly.

摘要： A method of monitoring traffic on a road (4) comprising capturing a plurality of images of the road using a camera (1) mounted on a viewing point and associating a time of capture with each image, determining, from the captured images, the positions of the portions of the road surface visible from the viewpoint at the front and rear extremities of the extent of a vehicle in the captured images (7, 8) at two different times; and determining from the positions and the times of the instants at least one characteristic of the vehicle or its motion, such as the vehicle length, speed or a vehicle classification (truck, car, motorcycle, etc).
