The name of the invention is an automobile diagnosis and test connector and a realization method thereof. The invention relates to the automobile diagnosis and test connector. The technical problem solved of the invention is that the connector is a general automobile diagnosis and test connector applicable for various automobile types as much as possible. The invention provides the automobile diagnosis and test connector, comprising stitches, an integrate module and a stitch selector, wherein, the integrate module comprises a protocol generator and a protocol selector. The invention also provides a method for realizing the general automobile diagnosis and test connector, comprising the following steps: required protocols are generated; the generated protocols are selected; the stitches are selected, so that the selected stitches are matched with the stitches applied by the selected protocols. By the method of the invention, through the selection and matching of protocols and stitches, the diagnosis and test connector can communicate with various target measured automobiles, therefore, the commonality of the diagnosis and test connector is realized.

The reinforcement plate for a reciprocating engine greatly reduces relative movement of the main bearings of a reciprocating engine, thereby reducing structural fatigue to increase engine durability and longevity. The reinforcement plate also maintains a more precise alignment between the main bearings to reduce friction during operation. The plate comprises a flat, planar steel sheet having opposite sides which fit within the lower skirt of the engine block. A series of lateral ribs or bars extend across the plate and bolt to all of the main bearing caps of the engine, using the stock cap bolts. Crankshaft counterweight and crank throw clearance openings, as well as other clearance areas, are provided in the plate. The reinforcement plate is adapted particularly well for installation in General Motors LS-1 aluminum block engines, but may be configured for installation in a number of different engines as desired.

A self-right apparatus is a device for automatically returning an overturned vehicle to an upright orientation. The device features a base plate that is mountable to a vehicle and a flip plate that is hingedly connected to the base plate via a pivot axle. The flip plate is held in place by a trigger mechanism engaged to a catch until the device is ready to be deployed to flip the overturned vehicle. The device utilizes a clutched servo mechanism that is connected to the trigger mechanism. The clutched servo mechanism is actuated in order to release the trigger mechanism from the catch and allow the flip plate to rotate about the pivot axle via force provided by a plurality of torsion springs. The flip plate is pressed against the surface on which the vehicle has become overturned, causing the vehicle to flip and return to its original upright orientation.

The invention relates to a movable changeable building which is composed of a function module and a system module. The system module comprises a changeable building structure system, an intelligent mechanical control system, a hidden type inflation heat preservation wall system, a changeable furniture lamp system, and auxiliary systems including a power system, a power consumption system, a water system, an indoor environment control system and a cloud network system. The changeable building structure system is a steel frame structure based on a universal automobile chassis. The changeable building structure system comprises the chassis, a main structure and a changeable component. The main structure and the changeable component are located on the chassis. The changeable component is located outside the main structure. The changeable component is connected with the main structure through a hinge joint and is provided with a hydraulic device, and opening or closing is achieved through the hydraulic device. The movable changeable building has the advantages that the movement flexibility and spatial changeability can be achieved, and the effects of being comfortable, safe, capable of saving energy, environmentally friendly, automatic in control and the like are achieved by optimizing and integrating all the auxiliary systems.

The invention generally relates to the improved performance of the rear planetary gear in an automobile transmission. In particular, the invention relates to a new and improved thrust bearing assembly capable of sustaining performance of the rear planetary under more severe stress, and prolonging its life over much longer periods of time, than the OEM bearing. More particularly, the invention relates to a novel bearing assembly designed to replace the OEM bearings in the General Motors [GM] 4L60, 4L60E, and 700R4 transmissions which have a long history of rear planetary failures.

A system used to reduce the possibly of a vehicle entering a freeway ramp in the wrong direction of travel, towards oncoming traffic, is disclosed. The preferred system is comprised of equipment used in conjunction with orbiting satellite transceivers with receivers, such as Global Positioning Systems (GPS) or OnStar™ by General Motors, housed in a vehicle and having the ability in real time to compute the receiver's, and consequently the vehicle's, longitude, latitude, and direction of travel. These devices in collaboration with a controller and freeway mounted mirrors constitute a timely, cost-effective, realizable, and simple means to reduce the possibility of entering a freeway ramp in the wrong direction of travel.

The invention discloses a general car seat cushion production technology. A car seat cushion comprises a seat cushion matrix and a medicine membrane covering the seat cushion matrix. The medicine membrane is formed by mixing and grinding Chinese herbal medicine into powder to be put in a medicine bag. The matrix comprises, by weight, 15 parts of polyglycol ether, 12 parts of polymer polyhydric alcohols, 16 parts of water, 5 parts of non-Aromatic amine catalysts and 16 parts of isocyanate. The medicine membrane comprises, by weight, 24 parts of downy groundcherry fruitor herbs and 26 parts of whiteflower patrinia herbs. By the aid of the method, the defects of poor comfort, unreasonable proportion, the badness for human health and the like can be overcome, the comfort level is high, the proportion is reasonable, and the car seat cushion is good for human health.

The 2004R Input Shaft is one of the parts in a 2004R Automatic Transmission, which was designed by General Motors. Under normal driving conditions the stock / factory input shaft does not usually break. But under severe duty and high performance driving these stock / factory input shafts are unable to handle the increased torque and power associated with this type of driving. The 2004R Billet Input Shaft is made from a hardened and heat-treated 300 M steel. This steel makes the Billet input shaft much more durable and considerably stronger than the stock / factory input shaft. Some of the "grooves" cut into the 2004R Billet Input Shaft have had the diameters changed (from the stock / factory blue print specifications) to accommodate teflon sealing rings, instead of using the factory metal rings. Teflon rings provide better sealing qualities. One end of the 2004R Billet Input Shaft has an oil feed hole which is smaller in diameter than the stock / factory hole. The purpose of the smaller diameter hole is to increase the oil pressure going to the lock-up circuit.

An engine tilting tool used to tilt transversely mounted General Motors engines includes a tubular bracket member which receives a telescoping tubular member that is driven telescopically by means of a drive rod mounted on the bracket member. The bracket member is attached to the vehicle engine compartment in place of one end of the “dog bone” strut engine support and the telescoping tubular member is attached to the engine in place of the opposite end of the strut engine support. A nut is used to adjust the position of the telescoping tube relative to the tubular bracket member to thereby effect tilting of the engine.
