  • Publication number: 20160264070
    Abstract: A vehicle operation system includes: a longitudinal member projected and extended from a steering column; an action detecting unit that is arranged at a distal end in a projecting direction of the longitudinal member, and detects an operation form of an operator in operating an onboard device at the distal end or in a sensing space with the distal end being a base point; and a controller that transmits a command to the onboard device based on an output signal from the action detecting unit in accordance with the operation form of the operator. The action detecting unit sets an operation direction along natural movement of a finger of the operator gripping a steering wheel, and allocates a function of the onboard device to the operation direction.

  • Patent number: 9159510
    Abstract: There is provided a fixed contact structure, including: a substrate; at least one fixed contact which is disposed on the substrate; a movable contact which slides on the corresponding fixed contact in a sliding direction; a resist layer which is consecutively disposed on the substrate outside both ends of the fixed contact with respect to the sliding direction; and gaps which are formed outside both ends of the fixed contact with respect to a direction orthogonal to the sliding direction.

  • Publication number: 20150068876
    Abstract: In a combination switch, cams having concave and convex surfaces are provided on an opposing surface of a disk-shaped opposing wall that faces a fog switch knob in the axial direction in the inside of a fixed knob. An elastic contact mechanism is provided at a part of the fog switch knob that faces the fixed knob to come into elastic contact with the concave and convex surfaces to hold an operation position of the fog switch knob. The inside of the elastic contact mechanism is filled with grease. The opposing surface of the fixed knob and the concave and convex surfaces and the outer peripheral surfaces of the cams are formed in a minor surface state with a surface roughness lower than the surface roughness of the other general parts.

  • Patent number: 8878084
    Abstract: A movable contact includes a contact base and a contact body upstanding from an end of the contact base. The holder includes a first holding portion constructed to hold the contact base such that the first holding portion is in contact with one surface of the contact base, the surface being opposite an other surface of the contact base from which the movable contact upstands, a second holding portion constructed to hold the contact base such that the second holding portion is in contact with the other surface of the contact base at a distal end of the contact base with reference to the contact body, and a disengagement-prevention portion provided at a proximal end of the contact base with reference to the contact body, on the one side of the contact base, and spaced away from the contact base, and constructed to prevent the movable contact from being detached from the holder.
