A rudder pedal input control device (100, 200, 300, 400A, 400B, 500, 600) is described that utilizes a linear mechanism and a rotary joint to achieve linear motion within a compact volume. The apparatus includes a lever linkage (106, 108, 206, 208, 306, 308, 506, 606) that converts forward movement of the pedals (110, 112, 210, 212, 310, 312, 510, 610) into rotational movement of the common shaft (102, 202, 302, 502, 602) such that forward movement of one pedal (110, 112, 210, 212, 310, 312, 510, 610) causes retraction of the other pedal (110, 112, 210, 212, 310, 312, 510, 610) while allowing yaw movement control of the aircraft.

In an operation control method of an integrated control apparatus for an autonomous driving vehicle, when a steering operation is performed on both of a first joystick lever and a second joystick lever to return to neutral positions after the steering operation, a lever which is always pivoted in an adduction direction is set to a function activation state, or a lever set to the function activation state during the steering operation is continuously maintained in the function activation state until the return to the neutral position is completed after the steering operation. In the present way, a user can more easily recognize the joystick lever in the function activation state.

The control system for attachment to a collective lever in a rotorcraft which comprises a body with an extended horn portion which is generally contoured to provide for a place to rest the palm and grip the collective lever at the end in the form of an open spherical grip as opposed to the more traditional cylindrical grip used to grasp the throttle and / or collective lever directly.

To improve operability.SOLUTION: In a miter saw 10, a fixing mechanism 50 includes a lever 64 and a bearing 68 that regulates rotation of a support column 42 to one side in a rotating direction at a right-angle position of a support column 42. By rotating the lever 64 about an axis AL1, the fixing mechanism 50 is switched between a fixed state and an unfixed state. Further, by performing a movement operation of moving the lever 64 toward a rear side along the axis AL1, a front-rear position of a lever unit 60 (the bearing 68) is switched from a first position to a second position, so that the restriction of rotation of the support column 42 toward the one side in the rotating direction by the bearing 68 is released. This eliminates the need for an operator to operate separate operating-portions when a head portion 32 is changed from the right-angle position to a position inclined to a right side with respect to a turntable 24. Therefore, it is possible to improve the operability when changing the position of the head portion 32 with respect to the turntable 24.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
