摘要:
An air conditioner for a vehicle includes a blower; a heat exchanger that heats the blown air by heat exchanger between blown air and a heat medium, a control device, and an air outlet mode switching device that switches between air outlet modes by switching proportions of air flow blown out from outlets which includes a face air outlet and a foot air outlet, wherein the control device limits the availability factor of the blower based on a temperature of the heat medium; and relaxes limitation on the availability factor of the blower when the air outlet mode is a bi-level mode in which the blown air is blown out from both of the face air outlet and the foot air outlet.

An air-conditioning device for a vehicle includes a blower and an estimating portion. The blower is disposed in an air-conditioning case, and performs a dry control for a heat exchanger arranged in a passenger compartment of the vehicle by sending air. The blower uses one of power supplied from an external power source, power supplied from the battery having residual quantity equal to or larger than a predetermined quantity, or power supplied from an in-vehicle solar cell, while the vehicle is parked. The estimating portion estimates an approximate elimination of odor generated from the heat exchanger by starting the sending of air, and stops the blower based on the estimation.
摘要:
An air conditioner is applied to a vehicle having a first operation mode in which an internal combustion engine-side driving force is more than a motor-side driving force, and a second operation mode in which the motor-side driving force is more than the internal combustion engine-side driving force, as an operation mode for the vehicle. The air conditioner includes a heater for heating air using a coolant of an internal combustion engine as a heat source, and a request signal output portion for outputting a request signal for increasing the number of revolutions of the internal combustion engine to a driving force controller during a heating operation of the vehicle interior. The request signal output portion outputs as the request signal, a signal that makes the number of revolutions increased in the second operation mode higher than that increased in the first operation mode.

A pixel area with a two-dimensional array of pixels (10) each including a photodiode and a memory area (3a) on which memory sections for holding signals produced by the pixels for continuously recordable frames are separately provided on a semiconductor substrate. All the pixels simultaneously perform a photocharge storage operation, and the signals produced by the photocharge storage are extracted in parallel through mutually independent pixel output lines (14). In a plurality of memory sections connected to one pixel output line, a sample-and-hold transistor of a different memory section is turned on for each exposure cycle so as to sequentially hold signals in a capacitor of each memory section. After the continuous imaging is completed, all the pixel are sequentially read. Unlike CCD cameras, the present sensor does not simultaneously drive all the gate loads. Therefore, the sensor consumes less power yet can be driven at high speeds. The separation between the memory area and pixel area prevents signals from deterioration due to an intrusion of excessive photocharges. As a result, the sensor can perform imaging operations at higher speeds than ever before and yet capture images with higher qualities.

A floating diffusion region is formed at an edge of a light-receiving surface of an embedded photodiode, with a transfer gate electrode located therebetween. A first region, with radially extending portions centered on the FD region, and a second region, located to the outside of the first region, are created in the substantially sector-shaped light-receiving surface. A dopant whose conductivity type is the same as the signal charges to be collected in the first region are introduced, whereby an electric field for moving the signal charges from the radially extending sections towards the center is created due to a three-dimensional field effect. As a result, the charge-transfer time is reduced. Additionally, since a circuit element in the subsequent stage can be placed adjacent to the floating diffusion region, the parasitic capacitance of the floating diffusion region can be reduced and a highly sensitive element can be obtained.

An image converter tube 2c and a plurality of image sensors CCDs 1 (eight CCDs 1 here) are provided, and the respective CCDs 1 and image positions in the image converter tube 2c are in one-to-one correspondence. By carrying out at least one of a control to make a shift to a different image position after image formation in one and the same image position for a predetermined number of frames, and a control to make a shift to a different image position in an imaging cycle with a predetermined time interval, various image pickup situations can be accommodated without changing the structure of CCDs 1 per se.

摘要:
A CCD type solid-state image sensor (CCD) and an image pickup apparatus of this invention have an image pickup unit and a charge multiplier mounted, as separated from each other, on a packaging board, thereby reducing an influence of one of the image pickup unit and the charge multiplier on the other. Consequently, an improvement in yield is realized. With the image pickup unit and the charge multiplier mounted, as separated from each other, on the packaging board, the CCD type solid-state image sensor (CCD) and the image pickup apparatus are highly versatile also when a design change is made in one of the image pickup unit and the charge multiplier.
