141 results about "Gear stick" patented technology

A gear stick (rarely spelled gearstick), gear lever (both, UK English), gearshift or shifter (US English) is a metal lever attached to the shift assembly in a manual transmission-equipped automobile and is used to change gears. In an automatic transmission-equipped vehicle, a similar device is known as a gear selector. A gear stick will normally be used to change gear whilst depressing the clutch pedal with the left foot to disengage the engine from the drivetrain and wheels. Automatic transmission vehicles, semi-automatic transmissions, and those with continuously variable transmission gearboxes do not require a clutch pedal.

A control system for controlling a braking system of a vehicle

A control system and method for controlling a vehicle braking system to brake when the vehicle is in a neutral drive mode that the driver does not expect. The method includes S710 receiving input parameters, S720 determining a braking condition is satisfied, and, if it is, S725 outputting a braking torque request signal to the braking system. The input parameters include an active drive mode signal and a driver selected drive mode signal (e.g. from a gear lever used for selecting between different gears and / or forward D, reverse R, neutral N and park P modes). The input parameters may additionally include: a request to change from initial drive mode in a first travel direction to driver selected mode in a second travel direction, vehicle speed, and driving surface gradient. The braking condition requires that the driver selected mode is not a neutral drive mode but the active drive mode is a neutral drive mode – e.g. due to overriding control logic the system has defaulted to neutral rather than the driver requested mode, such as when driver tries to switch to reverse when travelling forwards above threshold speed. The braking torque request may be tapered / gradually changed (re figure 8).
