A controller comprises: a home position memory which memorizes the home position of a steering wheel for force feedback control; a frequency calculating section which calculates a frequency of input of a steering signal; and a home position rewriting section which memorizes an operating angle of the steering wheel where the steering signal is most frequently inputted, as a new home position of the steering wheel in the home position memory. According to a rewriting signal outputted from the home position rewriting section, the home position memorized in the home position rewriting section is repeatedly rewritten.

A force pattern is formed by particular points in which forces to be supplied to a knob are set for a plurality of particular positions that are set in a movement range of the knob and prescribed functions connect each adjoining pair of particular positions. A storing section stores the particular points. A computing section determines in which region between the particular positions the knob is located, and calculates a control value to be supplied to an actuator on the basis of the prescribed function connecting the particular points.

A rotational angle detector which comprises: a rotational angle detecting section which detects an angle detection signal correspondent to a rotational state of a rotor in a short cycle and feeds it to a control section; the control section which calculates the fed angle detection signal and sends an angle set signal through a controller to a controlled system; and a memory which stores the angle detection signal temporarily and also stores an allowable maximum angle value for the angle detection signal, wherein the control section makes the output cycle for the angle set signal longer than the detection cycle for the angle detection signal and counts the number of times when the angle detection signal as fed within the long output cycle for the angle detection signal is beyond the allowable maximum angle value and, if it decides that the count is beyond a preset number, outputs an abnormality signal instead of the angle set signal.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a remote control system for a vehicle wherein the contents of control are changed depending on the distance between the vehicle and a portable transmitter, for example with a locking command signal provided from the portable transmitter in a vehicle invisible state, a window is not closed. According to the present invention, for achieving the above-mentioned object, the portable transmitter transmits both first and second transmission signals together, and when a receiver has received at least the first transmission signal, a control circuit section outputs a first control signal and at this time both a first device (locking/unlocking mechanism) and a second device (window opening/closing mechanism) are operated, while when the receiver has received only the second transmission signal, the control circuit section outputs a second control signal and at this time only the first device is controlled.

A mixed-flow type water jet pump having configured so that a tip clearance between an inner wall of a pump casing and an outer peripheral edge of an impeller can easily be adjusted, and which can easily be mounted on a watercraft. A pump casing is divided into two portions, a front casing and a rear casing, in a longitudinal direction, the front casing for housing an impeller provided with a longitudinal position defined simply with respect to the rear casing and being attached to the rear casing through a shim such that a predetermined clearance is formed between an inner wall of the front casing and an outer peripheral edge of the impeller.

A mounting structure for a water jet pump of a personal watercraft which includes a vertical wall 5 formed at the rear end of a water intake duct to form a pump mounting space 6, a pump bracket 8 fitted with an inlet of the water jet pump 7 and having a connecting surface 15 to sealingly connect to the vertical wall 5. A sealant recess 15b for accommodating a non-solid sealant S such as a silicon gel, is formed in the connecting surface 15 of the pump bracket 8, to enhance the air and water sealing quality between the connecting surfaces of the pump bracket 8 and the vertical wall 5.
摘要:
A rotary connector including a first housing rotatably connected to a second housing and forming an annular space therebetween, and a flexible cable wound within the annular spacing. According to a first aspect, the conductors of the flexible cable associated with an airbag circuit are spaced further apart than conductors for other circuits mounted on a steering wheel. A direct connector includes first terminals connected to the airbag conductors and second terminals connected to the other conductors. The first and second terminals are spaced apart and/or divided by a divider to prevent interference during assembly. In accordance with the second aspect, a locking member for preventing relative rotation of the first and second housings prior to assembly on a vehicle includes a cover portion for covering an open end of the direct connector.
