  • Patent number: 8662579
    Abstract: A vehicle seat has a cushion pad, a breathable outer cover and an air permeable material layer. The cushion pad includes an air passage extending from an air introducing port disposed at the non-passenger facing surface to a branch passage formed along the passenger facing surface. The branch passage has at least one bypass air passage that extends in a vehicle-widthwise direction of the cushion pad. The breathable outer cover is disposed over the passenger facing surface of the cushion pad. The air permeable material layer is disposed between the cushion pad and the breathable outer cover. The air permeable material layer includes a plurality of vent outlets passing through in a thickness direction of the air permeable material layer. The vent outlets are arranged in at least one column that extends in a direction perpendicular to the vehicle-widthwise direction.

  • Patent number: 4831404
    Abstract: An automatic focusing camera is equipped with an automatic subject distance detecting device for detecting which of a plurality of predetermined distances is nearest to that at which the subject lies. A lens positioning member adjusts an objective lens to a suitable focusing position in which the objective lens has a depth of field straddling that nearest predetermined distance detected by the automatic subject distance detecting device. Another lens positioning member adjusts the objective lens to a focusing position in which the objective lens will be focused on a subject, such as a landscape, at infinity, independently of the distances detected by the automatic subject distance detecting device. The latter objective lens positioning member is externally operable when it is intended to photograph a subject at infinity, before depressing the shutter button.
