Abstract: The present invention discloses a fender liner attached to a motor vehicle wheel house. The fender liner includes a breathable base material layer produced by forming a fiber assembly into a shape along the wheel house and a protective layer made of waterproof material. The protective layer is superimposed on a surface of the base material layer that is opposite to a side facing the wheel house. The protective layer is provided with a plurality of through-holes that allow air to flow through the protective layer to the surface of the base material layer on which the protective layer is superimposed.

Abstract: A source circuit for generating, based on image data composed of RGB signals, drive voltages for a row of pixels arranged in a horizontal direction which is a main scanning direction on a liquid crystal panel 12a and applying the drive voltages to signal lines. The source circuit can interchange the drive voltages applied to the signal lines in accordance with an arrangement of a color filter by changing of setting of voltage to be supplied to the source circuit, and is electrically connected and integrally fixed to a glass substrate 31, and the setting of voltage to be supplied to the source circuit 20 is changed by changing wiring formed on the glass substrate 31.

Abstract: The liquid crystal television receiver comprises an inverter circuit 28, transistors Q14, Q13, and a microcomputer 22. The inverter circuit 28 includes resistors R5, R6, R7, R8 determining the value of a tube current that is supplied to cold cathode fluorescent tubes of a backlight 26, and supplies to the cold cathode fluorescent tubes an alternating voltage. An emitter and a collector of the transistor Q14 are connected to two opposite ends of the resistor R6, and an emitter and a collector of the transistor Q13 are connected to two opposite ends of the resistor R7. The microcomputer 22 has a control terminal connected to bases of the transistors Q13, Q14, and detects a synchronizing signal in an image signal inputted to an image signal processing portion 12.

Abstract: Disclosed are a liquid crystal display unit and a liquid crystal TV set, each of which has a sequence circuit 13 that includes first, second, and third voltage output units. The sequence circuit 13, upon the turning-on of the power to the liquid crystal display unit 11, supplies the first, second, and third output voltages to a liquid crystal display panel 11c in this order and stops supply of the third, second, and first output voltages in this order upon the turning-off of the power to the liquid crystal display unit 11. Consequently, the display screen is prevented from the noise that is otherwise generated on the screen.

Abstract: With a power supply provided for a smart antenna, whether the antenna is connected is determined according to whether the power supply is connected. When it is determined that the smart antenna is not connected, power supply to units related only to controlling of the smart antenna is stopped, whereby power saving is realized. Further, user's setting for discriminating kinds of antennas becomes unnecessary and, when a smart antenna is not connected, power supply for the same can be prevented.

Abstract: A muting device includes an external sound input unit that receives an external sound and an internal sound input unit that only receives an internal sound. The external sound received by the external sound input unit has a component, which corresponds to the internal sound received by the internal sound input unit, removed therefrom. Only when the signal level of a specific kind of external sound sampled from the external sound having the internal sound component thereof removed therefrom is equal to or larger than a certain signal level, the internal sound is automatically muted. Consequently, there is provided a muting device that autonomously and accurately mutes an internal audio output responsively to a specific external sound such as a telephone ring while being unaffected by an internal sound.

Abstract: A liquid crystal television 100 displays an image on a liquid crystal display by transmitting a light source from a backlight unit 10. The backlight unit 10 drives two cold-cathode tubes 13a, 13b as the backlight 13 at the high frequency voltages each with different polarity generated by a self-excited inverter circuit 11 to generate a light source. The backlight unit 10 connects an inter-lamp coil L2 between two U-shaped cold-cathode tubes 13a, 13b to form a series circuit, and further connects capacitors C5, C6 in parallel with the cold-cathode tubes 13a, 13b.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a television that includes a speaker; a display; a tuner for receiving television broadcasting signals and generates first sound signals and first image signals based on the television broadcasting signals; a connecting terminal for connecting to a player device having an operation panel generating operation commands according to user's operations; an operation macro outputting unit for outputting an operation macro same as a plurality of the operation commands to the player device in order to make the player device perform consecutive operations, through the connecting terminal.
