In another aspect of the present invention, a flexible closed loop drive element in response to selective energization of an electric motor, and at least one rotatable member is coupled to one accessory such as a window wiper. The member attached to the drive element are arranged in a loop motion or discontinuous manner and selectively engage the rotatable member and thus actuate the attached accessory.
The invention claimed is: 1. A multi-function apparatus for use in an automotive vehicle, said apparatus comprising:a flexible drive element; at least one member affixed to and protruding from said element; an electromagnetic device operably driving said element; and at least a first intermittent motion mechanism selectively coupled to said electromagnetic device by said element when said member is engaged with said first intermittent motion mechanism, said first intermittent motion mechanism being selectively decoupled from said electromagnetic device when said member is disengaged from said first intermittent motion mechanism. 2. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising:a second intermittent motion mechanism selectively coupled to said electromagnetic device by said element when said member is engaged with said second intermittent motion mechanism, said second intermittent motion mechanism being selectively decoupled from said electromagnetic device when said member is disengaged from said second intermittent motion mechanism, and a third intermittent motion mechanism selectively coupled to said electromagnetic device by said element when said member is engaged with said third intermittent motion mechanism, said third intermittent motion mechanism being selectively decoupled from said electromagnetic device when said member is disengaged from said third intermittent motion mechanism. 3. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein said first intermittent motion mechanism is a motor vehicle rear wiper, said second intermittent motion mechanism is a motor vehicle rear window unlock device, and said third intermittent motion mechanism is a rear liftgate lock/unlock device.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT An automotive vehicle, such as a minivan, sport utility vehicle or the like, has a rear liftgate door 31 which can pivot about a generally horizontal, hinging pivot axis. When the liftgate is pivoted to an open position, a cargo space or passenger compartment is accessible from behind the vehicle. Such an arrangement is shown in FIG. 1. Liftgate 2 has a rear window backlite 2 which is pivotable between a closed position, substantially flush with the outer surface of liftgate 2, to an open position, about a generally horizontal pivot axis. A pair of pneumatic cylinders 6 act to push window 2 toward the open position when a lower portion of window 2 is released.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a front elevational view showing the first preferred embodiment multi-functional apparatus of the present invention;
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates generally to multi-functional apparatuses and specifically to a multi-functional apparatus employing a flexible drive element for selectively actuating multiple output systems in an automotive vehicle.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In accordance with the present invention, the preferred embodiment of a multi-functional apparatus employing a flexible drive element for selectively actuating multiple outputs includes an electromagnetic device and a flexible drive element with a plurality of members thereon. In another aspect of the present invention, a flexible closed loop drive element in response to selective energization of an electric motor, and at least one rotatable member is coupled to one accessory such as a window wiper. The member attached to the drive elements are arranged in a loop motion or discontinuous manner and selectively engage the rotatable member and thus actuate the attached accessory. A further aspect of the present invention provides a second accessory, actuatable by discontinuous members on a drive element. Still another aspect of the present invention allows discontinuous drive members on a flexible element to slide pass a rotatable member in a lost motion manner and, therefore, not actuate the respective accessory.
