Abstract: An energy absorbing device (40) includes a plastically deformable metal strap (46) for resisting the collapse of a steering column (44). The strap (46) is initially deformable into one or more V-shaped wave formations (51) by anvils (48, 50) to increase the energy required to advance the strap (46), thereby increasing the resistance to collapse of the steering column (44). One of the anvils (48) may be removed to eliminate one of the wave formations (51) and thereby reduce the amount of resistance to collapse of the steering column (44). Alternatively, the position of an anvil (72) may be varied to vary the shape of a wave configuration from a deep V to a shallow V.

Abstract: A method for detecting a loss of motor control in an electric power steering system is disclosed, In an exemplary embodiment, the method includes determining a duty cycle of a steering command signal generated by a controller, The steering command signal commands a steering mechanism to be turned in either a first or a second direction, the second direction being opposite to the first direction, A steering velocity of the steering mechanism is determined, the steering velocity being characterized by a steering velocity magnitude and a steering velocity direction whenever the steering velocity is greater than zero. The steering velocity direction corresponds to either the first or the second direction. The duty cycle is then compared to a first selected value, and the steering velocity magnitude is compared to a second selected value. If the duty cycle exceeds the first selected value, the steering velocity magnitude exceeds the second selected value, and the steering velocity direction is opposite to the direction commanded by the steering command signal, then a fault signal is generated.

Abstract: A vehicle door (16) cinching apparatus (10) for assisting the final closing motion of a sliding vehicle door (16) includes an electromagnet (12), a ferrous metal plate (24), a cinch drive (26) and a controller (28). The electromagnet (12) mounts on either an outer periphery (14) of a vehicle sliding door (16) or an inner periphery (18) of a vehicle sliding door frame (22) that's shaped to receive the sliding door (16) as the door (16) moves along a final inward cinching portion (18) of a door path (20) to a final closed position within the door frame (22). The plate (24) is supported on the other of the outer periphery (14) of the door (16) and the inner periphery (18) of the door frame (22) in a position where the plate (24) can magnetically engage the electromagnet (12) when the door (16) is disposed along the final cinching portion (18) of the door path (20). Whichever of the plate (24) and electromagnet (12) is supported on the inner periphery (18) of the door frame (22) is also supported for lateral movement in a direction generally parallel to the cinching portion (18) of the door path (20). According to the method, the cinch drive (26) moves whichever of the electromagnet (12) and plate (24) is supported on the inner periphery (18) of the door frame (22) to drive the door (16) along the final cinching portion (18) of the door path (20) and into the final closed position.
