Abstract: The present invention suppresses the unnecessary detection of an occurrence of a person being left behind in a vehicle. A vehicle occupant detection device (100) comprises: a distance detection unit (101) that detects the relative distance between a vehicle (200) and a first occupant; an occupant detection unit (102) that detects the presence/absence of a second occupant in the vehicle (200); and an execution timing controller (103) that, according to the detected relative distance, controls the execution timing of the detection operation by the occupant detection unit (102).

Abstract: A vehicle window glass with a metal terminal, includes a glass plate, an optically shielding layer on at least one of principal surfaces of the glass plate, a conductor on the optically shielding layer, a metal terminal electrically connected to the conductor via a lead-free solder, and a conductive wire fixed to the metal terminal; the metal terminal includes a pedestal portion electrically connected to a terminal connection portion via the lead-free solder; the conductor includes the terminal connection portion connected to the pedestal portion by means of a lead-free solder, and a coupling portion connected to the terminal connection portion with a narrow width than a width of the terminal connection portion in a longitudinal direction or a transverse direction of the terminal connection portion; the terminal connection portion and the coupling portion are connected together throughout at most 30% of an entire periphery of the terminal connection portion.

Abstract: A windowpane is supported in a gasket by a support member so that a space for allowing the windowpane to shift therein is ensured between an end surface of the windowpane and a surface in a channel of the gasket facing the end surface, the gasket having the channel for receiving a peripheral edge of the windowpane, and the support member being removable from the gasket. The windowpane can be easily removed from a body panel by removing the support member and shifting the windowpane into the space.
