摘要:
A shock absorbing steering apparatus for use in a vehicle, including a steering column to be fixed to a portion of a body of the vehicle such that the steering column is releasable from the body of the vehicle and movable in a forward direction of the vehicle in the event of a secondary collision of an occupant of the vehicle upon a collision of the vehicle, and wherein one of the steering column and the portion of the vehicle body includes a mounting portion, while the other of the steering column and the portion of the vehicle body includes a holding portion. The steering apparatus further includes an impact energy absorbing member to be mounted on the mounting portion. The impact energy absorbing portion includes an engaging portion engageable with the holding portion and is deformable as the steering column is moved in the forward direction while the engaging portion is held in engagement with the holding portion, whereby the impact energy absorbing member absorbs an impact energy generated by the secondary collision.

Collision-energy-absorbing means of an impact-absorbing steering column apparatus includes guide slots 31a1 and 31b1, guide slots 31a2 and 31b2, and transition portions 31a3 and 31b3, as well as energy-absorbing members 36 and 37, so as to change absorption load for secondary collision energy. A collar 42 plastically deforms the energy-absorbing member 36 or 37, thereby absorbing secondary collision energy of an occupant in the event of a collision of a vehicle. The guide slots 31a1 and 31b1, the guide slots 31a2 and 31b2, and the transition portions 31a3 and 31b3 change an absorption load for secondary collision energy dependently on the direction of a secondary collision of the occupant with the steering system.

A control circuit for use in an optical disk apparatus, which includes a carriage provided with a focus moving mechanism for supporting an objective lens; a carriage driving circuit for driving the carriage; and a tracking error detecting circuit for detecting a tracking error signal which represents a displacement of the light beam form the center of the information track. In the control circuit, a tracking control loop for performing a tracking control by feeding back a dc-component and ac-components, with frequencies which are not more than 10 kHz, of the tracking error signal to the carriage driving circuit is formed. Further, a filter device for attenuating the gain of the tracking control loop correspondingly to a frequency in the vicinity of a resonance frequency in a direction, in which the focus moving mechanism or the carriage crosses the information track, is provided in the tracking control loop. Moreover, the open-loop or overall gain crossover frequency of the tracking control loop is not less than 2 kHz.

A control circuit of an optical disk system has a tracking and seek control means for: controlling a position of a light beam emitted for recording and playing information to/from a track on an optical disk by driving a tracking actuator based on a tracking error signal representing at least positional difference between the light beam and the track; selectively performing seek control for controlling the light beam so that the light beam may traverse the track for moving the light beam to the destination track, and tracking control for controlling the light beam so that the light beam may follow the track; and outputting a brake pulse and moving control to the tracking control at the completion of the brake pulse at the completion of the seek control, wherein a width t of the brake pulse is set as follows: t
