Abstract: A snow removing device includes a heater that is disposed in a moving body that has a light including a cover and a cleaner that ejects a washer solution toward an outer surface of the cover. The cover is exposed to an outside of the moving body, covers a light source, and allows light emitted from the light source to pass therethrough. The snow removing device further includes a control unit that controls the heater to heat the cover first, and then controls the cleaner to eject a washer solution toward the outer surface of the cover.

Abstract: An air conditioner applied to a hybrid vehicle includes a first heat medium circuit, a first heating heat exchanger, a first pump, a first hydraulic pump capacity controller, a second heat medium circuit, a second heating heat exchanger, a second pump, and a second hydraulic pump capacity controller. The first heat medium circuit and the second heat medium circuit are configured to be independent from each other to set a first air conditioning mode, a second air conditioning mode and a third air conditioning mode. When a temperature difference calculated by subtracting a first temperature of the first heat medium from a second temperature of the second heat medium is lower than or equal to a predetermined reference temperature difference during the third air conditioning mode, the first air conditioning mode is set by switching from the third air conditioning mode.

Abstract: A heater device includes a light transmissive film heater configured to apply to an optical window that is arranged adjacent to a sensor unit for detecting light and includes a detection surface having a light transmitting property, and including a heating portion heating the optical window, and a heat generating portion configured to generate heat in a predetermined region. The light transmissive film heater includes a first electrode arranged radially outside about a center line of the detection surface in the heating portion, a second electrode arranged in the heating portion so as to interpose the detection surface from both sides together with the first electrode, and a first heat generation region that generates heat according to a potential difference between the first electrode and the second electrode generated by energization from the first electrode to the second electrode via the heating portion.

Abstract: An electromagnetic wave utilizing system includes an electromagnetic wave apparatus configured to perform transmitting and/or receiving of an electromagnetic wave, and a heater that heats a passage member. The heater includes a heating element and a holder. The heating element and the holder are transparent to allow the electromagnetic wave to transmit therethrough. The electromagnetic wave apparatus transmits and/or receives the electromagnetic wave while rotating on a horizontal plane. The heater is configured to rotate together with the electromagnetic wave apparatus or to surround the electromagnetic wave apparatus 360 degrees in a horizontal direction.
