A colliding object determination device for a vehicle having a bumper reinforcement member (12) includes a sensor (20) and a determination circuit (40). The sensor (20) is located in a front portion of a vehicle for measuring a collision state quantity correlating with a collision load generated in a collision of a colliding body with the vehicle. The determination circuit (40) determines whether the colliding body is a pedestrian based on the measured collision state quantity. The sensor (20) is located on an upper half region of a front end face of the bumper reinforcement member (12). Thus, accuracy of discriminating the pedestrian from other objects can be improved.

A curl correcting device for correcting a curl of a sheet at a curved belt-nip portion includes an endless belt extending between a driving roller and a driven roller, and a pressing roller configured to press a belt surface of the endless belt. A stepping motor is controlled in accordance with a pressing amount of the pressing roller to the belt surface of the endless belt to adjust a speed of the endless belt, thereby preventing the speed from being decreased.

An airbag device 4 for pedestrian structured to drain water in a case to a cowl includes a case 8 for storing an airbag 5 in a folded state, an inflator 9 for inflating the airbag 5, and a lid 10 which closes an opening 3a of a hood 3, which allows passage of the airbag. Discharge passages 9 for draining water which has intruded into the case 8 to a cowl louver 2 are formed at both ends of the case 8 in a longitudinal direction.

A cell core unit and its peripheral circuit are driven by a relatively low voltage power supply. A constant voltage that does not depend on the power supply voltage is provided as a boosted voltage (VBOOST) to be supplied to a control signal for a word line of the cell core unit. A sense amplifier amplifies a higher voltage level of a bit line to the power supply voltage. Then, a circuit for generating a signal for defining the transition timing and/or the pulse width of a control signal from the peripheral circuit to the cell core unit performs signal delay using a delay circuit having a characteristic in which a delay time thereof decreases with reduction of the provided power supply voltage.

A centrifuge includes: a rotation room chamber for defining a rotation room; a lid for closing the rotation room; a locking mechanism configured by a hook for locking the lid in a closed state; a hook catch; a driving mechanism having a link mechanism which converts the rotary movement of the driving shaft portion into a reciprocal movement; and a detection portion for detecting the engagement of the hook with the hook catch in the closed state of the lid. The detection portion includes a disc member fixed to the driving shaft portion and has a concavo-convex outer peripheral surface and sensors for detecting the concave and convex portions. The driving mechanism moves in an interlocked manner with the rotation of the disc member. The positions of the concave and convex portions of the disc member correspond to the position where the hook engages.

A hood airbag device that includes an inflator, and an airbag. The inflator is provided inside a hood at a position corresponding to an opening formed in the hood. The inflator is disposed such that a gas-injection port (is positioned closer to the rear edge of the opening than to the front edge of the opening in the vehicle fore-and-aft direction. The airbag, which is provided inside the hood, passes through the opening and is deployed toward the outside of a vehicle body, due to the pressure of gas supplied from the inflator. Accordingly, the reference position for deployment of the airbag can be made closer to the rear of the vehicle in the vehicle fore-and-aft direction. Thus, the airbag can be deployed to a large extent in the area closer to the rear of the vehicle in the vehicle fore-and-aft direction.

A collision detection device is provided with a load detection member 2 for detecting a collision load in a collision, and a mold member 3 which is molded to be integral with the load detection member 2. The mold member 3 covers at least the surface of a collision side of the load detection member 2, to absorb at least a part of impact energy in the collision by a resilient deformation of the mold member 3. Thus, the collision detection device is substantially resistant to an impact in the collision, while being simply manufactured.

A fixing controller that utilizes an induction-heating (IH) fixing technique and a 2-CPU fixing technique is provided to reduce the control workload on the main CPU, and to perform a fine control operation, taking advantage of the temperature flexibility that is naturally achieved by the IH fixing technique. In this fixing controller utilizing the IH fixing technique and the 2-CPU fixing technique, the main CPU that controls an entire image forming apparatus only transmits a power control signal as a control instruction to the IH CPU in an IH control circuit. Accordingly, in this fixing controller, IH control is performed by the IH CPU.
