Abstract:
An ultrasonic generator has a speaker element having a first resonance frequency and a speaker element having a second resonance frequency. The first resonance frequency and the second resonance frequency are adjacent resonance frequencies in the speaker. The distance between the elements is set so that the sound from the first speaker element and the sound from the second speaker element have a predetermined relationship at a target position. The target position is two or more positions on the object located in the target space. A predetermined relationship is a relationship in which a sound from the first speaker element and a sound from the second speaker element strengthen each other at an intermediate frequency between the first resonance frequency and the second resonance frequency.
Abstract:
An attachment structure of a weight sensor for seat occupant detection includes an insert member extending from a skin member of a seat portion into a concave groove provided on a pad member of the seat portion, and at least one connection member connected to an end part of the insert member inside the concave groove. An opening part is provided in the insert member, and the weight sensor inserted in the insert member through an opening of the opening part across the concave groove.

Abstract:
A capacitance type occupant detection sensor includes a capacitive sensor, a reference electrode, a voltage application part, a current detector, a capacitance calculator, and a determination part. The capacitive sensor has a main electrode and is placed to a vehicle seat. The reference electrode is applied with reference voltage. The voltage application part applies detection voltage to the main electrode. The current detector detects detection current flowing through the main electrode. The capacitance calculator calculates a first capacitance between the main electrode and the reference electrode. The determination part determines an occupant of a vehicle. The capacitive sensor has a sub electrode. The determination part switches between an occupant detection mode and a wet detection mode. The capacitance calculator calculates first conductance, a second conductance, and a third conductance. The determination part determines whether the occupant exists and whether the vehicle seat is wet.
Abstract:
A load sensor includes: a substrate; a rib on the substrate; and two vertical transistors. Each vertical transistor includes: a gate electrode, a gate insulation film, and a semiconductor thin film on the side surface of the rib; a bottom electrode layer on a bottom of the substrate, on which the rib is not arranged, with contacting the semiconductor thin film; and a top electrode layer on a top of the rib with contacting the semiconductor thin film. Each vertical transistor flows current between the bottom electrode layer and the top electrode layer when a channel region is provided in the semiconductor thin film. Each straight line along normal line directions of the channel regions in the vertical transistors is arranged on a different side surface of the rib from each other, and has a predetermined angle between the straight lines.
Abstract:
A check valve includes a valve seat portion and a reed valve element and is received in a receiving hole of an intermediate pressure refrigerant supply passage that is placed adjacent to a flow inlet of an injection port, through which a refrigerant of an intermediate pressure is injected into a compression chamber. A center of the flow inlet of the injection port is offset from a central axis of a valve seat passage formed in the valve seat portion.

Abstract:
A load sensor is constituted by a rib and a vertical transistor including an organic semiconductor film, and a load measurement can be executed based on a change of a gap between a drain electrode and a source electrode which is a channel length of the vertical transistor. Therefore, a change of a current Ids is in a linear relationship to a load applied to the load sensor.
