摘要： A transmission apparatus used for transmitting electric signals, optical signals, small power, etc. between a rotary body and a fixed body using a flat cable. The apparatus has dummy cables in addition to the flat cable. At least one dummy cable is provided with a stopper member having a projecting portion which projects to the flange portion side of the outer case. Further, a depression portion in which the projecting portion of the stopper member enters is formed at the inner circumference of the flange portion of the outside case. If the inside case is rotated in the rewinding direction, the projecting portion of the stopper member catches on the peripheral wall of the depression portion before the flat cable is completely rewound and therefore no further rotation is possible. That is, by the present transmission apparatus, it is possible to accurately detect "over rotation in the rewinding direction" without damaging the flat cable and the dummy cables. "Over rotation in the winding direction" can be detected by a similar construction.

摘要翻译： 一种用于使用扁平电缆在旋转体和固定体之间传输电信号，光信号，小功率等的传输装置。 除了扁平电缆之外，该设备还具有虚拟电缆。 至少一个虚拟电缆设置有止动构件，该止动构件具有突出到外壳的凸缘部分侧的突出部分。 此外，止动构件的突出部分进入的凹陷部分形成在外壳的凸缘部分的内周。 如果内壳在重绕方向上旋转，则在扁平电缆完全倒带之前，止动构件的突出部分在凹陷部分的周壁上捕获，因此不可能进一步旋转。 也就是说，通过本发明的装置，可以在不损坏扁平电缆和虚拟电缆的情况下，精确地检测“倒带方向的过度旋转”。 可以通过类似的结构来检测“卷绕方向上的过度旋转”。

摘要： A transmission apparatus of the U-turn type in which the extending direction of a flexible flat cable is reversed in the middle of the cable. The apparatus comprises a planet roll located between a center barrel and an outer case. The planet roll is fitted with a planet gear which is in mesh with a sun gear fixed to the center barrel, and an internal gear fixed to the outer case. When the center barrel rotates, the planet roll revolves in the same direction as the rotating direction of the barrel, thereby guiding the U-turn portion of the cable. At the same time, the planet roll rotates around its axis in the direction opposite to the rotating direction of the center barrel, whereby a guide tape is wound on the barrel and wound off the planet roll. The guide tape serves to guide and prevent the cable from slackening, so that the potential rotational frequency of the center barrel can be made high for the cable length.

摘要： An electrical connector device comprising male and female housings and terminal seating detecting means. Each of the housings includes retaining means protruding in the form of a cantilever from each of partition walls, which define terminal chambers arranged in the form of a matrix composed of a plurality of rows and columns, and resiliently bendable in a flexure space. As male terminals, contained individually in the terminal chambers, and female terminals, adapted to be connected to the male terminals, engage the retaining means, the terminals are prevented from slipping out of the chambers. The terminal seating detecting means is fitted into the flexure space of the retaining means when the terminals are contained in their corresponding terminal chambers so that they normally engage the retaining means. The detecting means for the male terminals is formed integrally with at least one integral planar portion for protecting the male terminals from collision with objects running toward them, and the female housing has a fitting groove bored therein and adapted to receive the planar portion.

摘要： A transmission device is equipped with a flat cable (11) which has a winding direction reversal section (11a) at the middle, and three dummy cables (21A through 21C) which are wrapped over the flat cable, the winding direction reversal sections (11a and 21a through 21c) of the flat cable and dummy cables being arranged in the circumferential direction at approximately equal intervals. The winding direction reversal sections which produce elastic reaction forces are distributed in the circumferential direction at approximately equal intervals, and hence the slack of the flat cable is suppressed when an inner case or an outer case performs reciprocal rotation, thus securely preventing troubles caused by the slack in the flat cable, whereby the possible case revolution number can be increased with a shorter flat cable, and the operation stability of the transmission device can be improved.

摘要： A seat-occupant sensing device for a car seat is provided, such that a heater can be installed in the seat without deterioration of sitting comfort. A load sensor is mounted to a cushion frame of a car seat. The end of a flexible cushion support is linked with the load sensor. Because the flexible cushion support flexes when a person sits on the seat, the load sensor detects the moment when the person sits on the seat.

摘要： A capacitance type load sensor is provided with outer and inner tubes made of plastic and formed into a hollow circular cylinder shape and outer and inner electrodes respectively attached to the inner and outer peripheral faces of the outer and inner tubes. A coil spring is disposed within the interior space of the inner tube, and load-applied hooks of the coil spring are individually coupled to respective end walls of the outer and inner tubes. When a tensile load is applied to the hooks of the coil spring and hence the coil spring is elongated, a relative motion occurs between the outer and inner tubes so that the facing area between the outer and inner electrodes and accordingly the capacitance between these electrodes decrease. The load sensor measures the applied load based on an amount of change in the capacitance between before and after the application of the load.
