  • Patent number: 9929469
    Abstract: A vehicle-mounted patch antenna device includes a substrate, a ground conductor provided on the substrate, an antenna element section, a stub, and a notification circuit section. The antenna element section is provided on a surface that faces a surface on which the ground conductor of the substrate is provided, and includes a power feeding section and a degeneracy separation element section. The stub is provided on a surface on which the antenna element section of the substrate is provided, and is a microstrip line that uses the ground conductor. The notification circuit section is provided on the substrate, and is connected adjacent to an area in which current distribution is minimum in a peripheral area other than an area in which the power feeding section of the antenna element section is provided.

  • Patent number: 9446690
    Abstract: A power seat operation device is configured in such a manner that, when a dial member is rotated and operated, a movable mechanism which is to be operated is selected from among movable mechanisms. When a switch member is rotated and operated, the selected movable mechanism is actuated. The switch member is rotated and operated about a rotation axis extending in the widthwise direction of the seat. Thus the direction of operation of the switch member can be aligned with or nearly aligned with both the direction of the actual movement of a seat back when a recliner mechanism is actuated and the direction of the actual movement of an ottoman when an ottoman mechanism is actuated. Also, in a state in which a seat slide mechanism is selected, the direction of the operation of the switch member is aligned with the front-rear direction of the seat.

  • Patent number: 9388891
    Abstract: A multi-shaft drive device is provided that is capable of obtaining an appropriate backlash in an enmeshed state of an output side bevel gear and an input side bevel gear. An output side bevel gear (35) that is biased in the direction of an input side bevel gear by a coil spring contacts a shaft support bush attached to a wall portion (17) in an enmeshed state with the input side bevel gear. A bias direction stroke end of the output side bevel gear (35) is accordingly restricted. Moreover, the wall portion (17) is provided to a gear holder (15) fixed to a device case (10) that supports the input side bevel gear, thereby enabling the axial direction position of the output side bevel gear (35) to always be positioned at a uniform position to enmesh appropriately with the input side bevel gear.

  • Patent number: 9267589
    Abstract: The present invention obtains a multi-shaft drive device that can protect a rack and pinion from operative load input to a selector. The multi-shaft drive device is provided with: an input-side bevel gear (52) to which motor power is transmitted; and an output-side bevel gear (34) that transmits the power transmitted from the input-side bevel gear (52) to a movable mechanism. The multi-shaft drive device is further provided with: a selector (10) that connects/disconnects the meshing of the output-side bevel gear (34) and the input-side bevel gear (52); and a rotating shaft (16) that causes the selector (10) to slide via a rack (18) and pinion (17). Furthermore, the angle of rotation of the rotating shaft (16) is regulated by the end of the pinion (17) contacting a vertical wall (1A) of a case (1).

  • Patent number: 9121482
    Abstract: A power transmission member that transmits rotation of an output shaft to a movable mechanism achieves a simpler structure and increased productivity compared to when a conventional flexible cable is employed. Out of plural output portions 30 of a clutch unit 2, power transmission members that transmit rotation of an output shaft 31 to a movable mechanism are configured by a conventional torque cable in a second output portion 30B and a third output portion 30C. However in a first output portion 30A, the power transmission member is configured by a gearbox 3 including a worm 71 that is coaxially and integrally formed with an output shaft 31A.

  • Publication number: 20130192418
    Abstract: Force of used spring can be weak, wear amount of power transmission member (gear or the like) can be reduced, and generation of strange noises can inhibited. When the dial cam is rotated and the recess of the outer peripheral surface faces the front end portion of the pin of the connection shaft, the connection shaft, which is biased by the force of the coil spring, is connected to the bevel gear, which engages with the bevel gear and is rotated, via the clutch teeth. Thus, the connection shaft is rotated, and the output shaft is rotated together with the connection shaft. That is, the power of the motor is transmitted to the output shaft. Since the coil spring is used for connecting the connection shaft to the bevel gear, the force of the coil spring can be reduced.

  • Publication number: 20110102269
    Abstract: The patch antenna disclosed is easily adjusting the resonant frequency even by manual operation and without requiring a grinding process. A patch antenna includes a radiating element 12 and an adjustment land section 20. A power supply section 11 is disposed in the radiating element 12. The adjustment land section 20 adjusts the resonant frequency of the radiating element 12. When the resonant frequency needs to be adjusted, the adjustment land section 20 and the radiating element 12 are short-circuited to change the element length as viewed from the power supply section 11. As a result, the resonant frequency of the radiating element 12 can be adjusted.
