    摘要: A travel control device includes a side obstacle detection unit, a rearward movement preparation detection unit, a warning unit, and a suppression unit. The side obstacle detection unit divides a range from a lateral side to a rear side of a vehicle into plural detection angle areas, and detects, for each of the plural detection angle areas, an obstacle entering the detection angle area and a distance to the obstacle. The warning unit provides warning about the obstacle. The suppression unit suppresses the warning by the warning unit, if the rearward movement preparation detection unit detects the vehicle preparing to move rearward and the detection angle area in which the obstacle is detected shifts from the rear side to the lateral side.

    摘要: An air passage and two lines of cleaning liquid paths are provided in a nozzle, and the air passage is bifurcated into two lines of distal end portions. A secondary tank is provided upstream of the cleaning liquid paths. A distal end portion of a cleaning liquid path and the distal end portion of the air passage are merged. When a compressed air is supplied to the air passage, the resulting air flow makes the inside of the secondary tank to be negative pressure. Thus, the cleaning liquid can be made into the form of a mist, and is suctioned, and the cleaning liquid in the form of a mist and the compressed air are mixed, whereby it is possible to clean a lens surface and to reduce the amount of cleaning liquid used.

    摘要: A travel control device includes a side obstacle detection unit which divides a range from a lateral side to a rear side of a vehicle into plural detection angle areas, and detects, for each of the plural detection angle areas, an obstacle entering the detection angle area; a rearward movement preparation detection unit which detects the vehicle preparing to move rearward; a warning control unit which provides warning about the obstacle if the distance to the obstacle is equal to or less than an activation threshold for the warning; and a threshold control unit which, if the obstacle is detected in one or more rear side areas among the plural detection angle areas, before being detected in the other detection angle areas, raises the activation threshold so that the timing of the warning becomes earlier.The changes to the abstract are shown below:A travel control device includes a side obstacle detection unit which divides a range from a lateral side to a rear side of a vehicle into plural detection angle areas, and detects, for each of the plural detection angle areas, an obstacle entering the detection angle area; a rearward movement preparation detection unit which detects the vehicle preparing to move rearward; a warning control unit which provides warning about the obstacle if the distance to the obstacle is equal to or less than an activation threshold for the warning; and a threshold control unit which, if the obstacle is detected in one or more rear side areas among the plural detection angle areas, before being detected in the other detection angle areas, raises the activation threshold so that the timing of the warning becomes earlier.
