Abstract: A submergence detection sensor installed in a vehicle, having a control circuit board mounted on the vehicle for controlling the operation of a power window which is opened/closed by an electric motor. A pair of pad-like electrodes are installed on the control circuit board which are electrically conductive upon entry of water to generate a leak current therebetween and a submergence detection circuit is connected to one of the electrodes to receive the leak current and to compare with a threshold value to discriminate whether the vehicle submerges into water. A slot is provided in a gap between the electrodes which penetrates the control circuit board such that water present at the gap is discharged from the control circuit board, thereby enabling to effect submergence detection when the vehicle, in fact, submerges in water, while without making false detections owing to water condensation on the control circuit board or migration occurring therein. Instead of the pad-like electrodes, the sensor may use bar-like ones whose resistance is different when submerged in water or not.

Abstract: An actuating device for a motor used in a power window of an automobile which can drive the motor reliably to open the window even when the automobile is submerged in water. This device has a simple configuration is relatively small and inexpensive. This activating device comprises a drive circuit for a motor which has first and second relays to allow electric current to flow so as to drive the motor in either the forward or reverse direction. The contact of the second relay, which drives the motor in one direction, is used in such a way that the contact forms a part of an electronic circuit for the magnetic coil of the first relay. When the second relay operates, the electric circuit for the magnetic coil of the first relay is closed off. This activating device can ensure that a power window will be opened even if the automobile is submerged, and the first and second relay are switched ON at the same time.
