A tire-state obtaining apparatus operable to detect the states of tires of wheels and including (a) wheel-side devices each including a transmitter device (42), and (b) a body-side device including a receiver device operable to receive tire information from the wheel-side devices, wherein the positions of the wheels from which sets of the tire information have been transmitted are determined on the basis of the condition in which the receiver device receives the tire information. The receiver device includes a plurality of antennas oriented to receive the tire information from the respective wheel-side devices, and the wheel corresponding to the antenna having the highest intensity of reception of the tire information can be determined as the wheel from which the tire information has been transmitted, so that the antennas need not be located near the respective wheels, to identify the wheels.

A vehicle tire information obtaining apparatus for obtaining tire information relating to a mounted tire and a non-mounted tire of a vehicle. The apparatus includes: (a) tire state detectors which are provided in the respective tires and each of which detects a state of the corresponding tire; (b) transmitters which are provided in the respective tires and which transmit tire data sets, as the tire information, each containing at least one tire-state data element representative of the detected state of the corresponding tire; (c) a receiver which is provided in a body of the vehicle and which receives the tire data sets transmitted by the transmitters; and (d) a non-mounted-tire information separator which separates the tire data set transmitted from the non-mounted tire, from the tire data set transmitted from the mounted tire.

A detection/communication apparatus to be installed on a vehicle having a plurality of tires. The apparatus includes: (a) tire state detectors which are provided on the respective tires and each of which detects a state of a corresponding one of the tires; (b) local transceivers which are provided on the respective tires and which transmit tire data sets relating to the respective tires; (c) a central receiver which is provided on a vehicle body and which receives the tire data sets transmitted by the local transceivers; (d) a particular-signal transmitter which is provided on the vehicle body and which transmits a particular signal; and (e) data-transmission modifiers which are provided on the respective tires. Each of the data-transmission modifiers is operable depending upon a state of reception of the particular signal by a corresponding one of the local transceivers, to modify transmission of a corresponding one of the tire data sets by the corresponding one of the local transceivers.

摘要:
An air damper capable of stabilizing a damping force of the air damper is obtained.When a rod member (16) is pulled out of a cylinder member (20), a suction member (60) hits against the other side surface (56) of a piston member (30) so as to close an air passage (28), and an airflow path communicating between an air chamber (26) and an outside is only orifice portions (42). On the other hand, when the rod member (16) is pushed into the cylinder member (20), the suction member (60) moves away from the other side surface (56) of the piston member (30) so as to open the air passage (28). Consequently, compared to a conventional structure in which an O-ring rolls by a friction force with an inner peripheral surface of a cylinder so as to open or close the air passage, the air passage (28) can be opened and closed as intended so as to be capable of stabilizing the damping force.

Provided is an embolization coil in which even if the coil is wound in a shape of a small diameter, an elongation-preventing wire is not broken and the delivery property thereof can be prevented from deterioration. An embolization coil has a coil of partial or full-pitch winding and an elongation-preventing wire which are fixed respectively at two points different from each other, and is characterized in that the natural length of the coil arranged between two different points before the coil is fixed is longer than the length of the elongation-preventing wire arranged between two different points before the elongation-preventing wire is fixed.

The magnitude of a linear damping coefficient Cs is set so as to decrease the greater a maximum amplitude value α of an intermediate frequency sprung acceleration is. In the case where a damping force control apparatus carries out control for dampening vibrations of a sprung member using a nonlinear H-infinity control theory, the linear damping coefficient Cs is set to a high value when the maximum amplitude value α of the intermediate frequency sprung acceleration inputted to a suspension apparatus is low. Accordingly, a requested damping force Freq also increases, which makes it possible to quickly dampen vibrations in the sprung member. Meanwhile, in the case where the maximum amplitude value α of the intermediate frequency sprung acceleration is high, the linear damping coefficient Cs is set to a low value. Accordingly, the requested damping force Freq also decreases, which makes it possible to suppress degradation in the riding quality when intermediate frequency vibrations are inputted, and particularly makes it possible to suppress riding quality degradation when the vibration speed is high.

Disclosed herein is a medical wire with an intracorporeally indwelling member connected to the leading end part of a conductive wire body through a thermally-fusible connecting member, wherein expected heat generation can be achieved even when a conductive member that causes leak comes into contact with the leading end part of the conductive wire body, and thus the intracorporeally indwelling member can be surely released.This medical wire comprises a conductive wire body and an intracorporeally indwelling member connected to the leading end part of the conductive wire body through a thermally-fusible connecting member, in which the connecting member is heated and fused by supplying an electric current for fusion through the conductive wire body, thereby releasing the intracorporeally indwelling member, wherein a non-conductive coating film is formed on an external peripheral surface of an electrode-forming portion in the leading end part of the wire body, and a part of the surface of the wire body is exposed through the coating film, thereby forming a heating electrode portion.
