    摘要: A method of controlling a retractable stairway assembly for a vehicle includes monitoring at least one vehicle status condition such as (a) whether the vehicle is stopped, (b) whether the parking brake is set, (c) whether the cab is tilted in excess of a threshold, and (d) whether excess current is being required by a motor used to shift the stairway between stowed and deployed positions in the event an electric motor is used for this purpose. In the event any of these monitored conditions are not in a predetermined state, deployment of the stairway from a stowed position is blocked. Deployment and stowing of the stairway may also be interrupted depending upon vehicle status and other conditions. Interior and exterior vehicle alarms may be activated depending on vehicle status conditions and the mode of operation of the stairway.

    摘要: An adjustable foot pedal assembly for a vehicle, according to one disclosed embodiment, comprises a foot pedal supported by a base. The pedal is mounted in a position generally above the base, with the lower end of the pedal pivotally connected to the lower end of the base. The first end of a lever arm is pivotally mounted on the lower surface of the pedal and the second end of the lever arm is positioned for movement relative to the upper surface of the base when the pedal is pivoted toward and away from the base between a depressed position and an idle position. An adjustment mechanism may couple the upper end portion of the base to a wall of a vehicle and is configured to selectively vary the fore and aft position of the base and the pedal from the wall.

    摘要: Embodiments of a door module a vehicle door are described herein. In one exemplary embodiment, a door module for mounting to a vehicle door with a lower edge portion and a window opening with a base edge comprises a structural modular carrier panel of a monolithic one-piece construction. The carrier panel is sized such that when mounted to the vehicle door the panel extends substantially from the base edge of the window opening to a location on the door spaced from the lower edge portion of the door. The door module includes a window and window lifter that comprises at least two elongate window guide channels configured to guide a window panel and mounted to the structural modular panel such that lower ends of the elongate window guide channels extend substantially beyond the lower end of the carrier panel. The door module can also include an opening and closing mechanism that is mounted to the modular panel and comprises an interior handle, an exterior handle and a latch mechanism.
