    摘要: A vehicle sun visor includes a sun visor body, an arm including a cylindrical end portion provided with contact parts of a pair of conductors and rotatably holding the sun visor body, a mounting bracket configured to mount the arm to a vehicle, and a connector having a pair of terminals each including a contact portion configured to contact each contact part. The mounting bracket includes an arm-supporting portion supporting the cylindrical end portion. The contact parts are a pair of arcuate-plate-shaped contact parts. The pair of arcuate-plate-shaped contact parts is provided at a predetermined interval on an outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical end portion. The housing of the connector further includes a lubricating oil reservoir being disposed at a position facing to at least one arcuate-plate-shaped contact part and configured to store lubricating oil to be supplied to the at least one arcuate-plate-shaped contact part.

    摘要: A curvature regulating member includes a plurality of member pieces to be arranged along a wire harness and a flexible connecting part connecting adjacent member pieces. The adjacent member pieces are configured to contact each other, thereby regulating curvature of the wire harness on an X-Y plane. Each member piece includes a recessed part recessed toward a direction away from an adjacent member piece on one side, and a second protrusion configured to be inserted in the recessed part provided on an adjacent member piece on another side when adjacent member pieces contact each other. The recessed part includes a slanted face extending away from the adjacent member piece on the one side as leaving from both ends in a widthwise direction. The second protrusion includes a slanted face extending toward the adjacent member piece on the another side as leaving from both ends in the widthwise direction.

    摘要: A rotating connector includes a movable housing and a steering angle sensor unit. The movable housing includes a cylindrical section through which a steering shaft penetrates and a main gear integrally molded with the movable housing on an outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical section along a rotation direction. The steering angle sensor unit includes a fixed-side housing into which the cylindrical section of the movable housing is inserted, a satellite gear which is provided in the fixed-side housing and meshed with the main gear, and a rotation angle detection unit which is provided in the fixed-side housing and detects rotation of the satellite gear.

    摘要: An arrangement for electrical lines is set forth which is mounted in a steering column switching module and/or in a steering wheel mounted on the module, equipped with its ends electrically conductively connected to one of the electrical components, which is fixedly mounted in the steering wheel switching module or in the steering wheel mounted thereon. At least two of the lines are connected with their other free ends to electrical contacts, which are arranged in at least one coupling body of insulation material in such a way that they are accessible on the plug-in side thereof. The coupling body is accessible from the outside connected with a plug-in side on or in the steering column switching module of the motor vehicle and, in the assembly position, an electrical line leading to the coupling body is connected through an electrical line leading to the onboard network.

    摘要: The present invention provides a rotary connector device that enables relative rotation between the rotator and the stator to be easily and reliably fixed at a neutral position even when a steering device is disengaged. A rotary connector device (1) according to the present invention is provided with: a self-rotation pin (50) that is self-rotatable with respect to a sleeve (30) and that is provided with a pin-side notch (521) that restricts the self-rotation by coming into contact with an inner circumferential surface of a stator-side inner-circumferential cylindrical portion (23); a stationary-side gear (231) and a self-rotation-side gear (511) that transmit the relative rotation and the self-rotation in an interlocked manner; and a stationary-side switching mechanism (40) and a pin protrusion (52) that switch, in a neutral position, the self-rotation pin (50) from a released state to a restricted state.
