Abstract:
An automotive device comprising:a first independent automotive system having a rotatable input member;a second independent automotive system;a third independent automotive system;a housing adapted to be mounted in an automobile;a magnet assembly disposed in said housing;a rotor rotatably mounted adjacent said magnet assembly, said rotor having an armature fixed to a shaft for rotation therewith, said shaft engaging said rotatable input member of said first independent automotive system;a first set of brushes electrically coupled with said armature, said first set of brushes being selectively energized to rotate said armature and said shaft about a rotation axis to rotatably drive said first independent automotive system;a second set of brushes electrically coupled with said armature, said second set of brushes being selectively energized to linearly drive said shaft of said rotor to linearly actuate said second independent automotive system; anda coupling member coupled to said shaft of said rotor for rotation and translation therewith, said coupling member linearly engagable to rotatably actuate said third independent automotive system upon energization of one of said sets of brushes.
