Patent number: 10518608Abstract: A vehicle air-conditioner safety device includes a controller which, in a case in which an abnormality has occurred in a heating device that heats coolant with a heater, determines whether or not the abnormality is a restorable abnormality or a non-restorable abnormality. When the abnormality is determined to be the restorable abnormality, it is determined whether or not the restorable abnormality has been removed. Heating by the heater is prohibited when the restorable abnormality or the non-restorable abnormality has occurred. Heating by the heater is restored when the restorable abnormality has been removed after heating by the heater is prohibited due to occurrence of the restorable abnormality.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 2014Date of Patent: December 31, 2019Assignee: CALSONIC KANSEI CORPORATIONInventors: Naohisa Kamiyama, Takeshi Satou, Takeshi Ogasawara, Hiroki Yoshioka

Patent number: 7323716Abstract: This invention provides a manufacturing method for fabricating on the same substrate both high voltage thin film transistors suitable for driving liquid crystal and low voltage drive high performance thin film transistors. In addition, this invention provides a thin film transistor substrate where the area occupied by a storage capacitor in each pixel is reduced to raise the aperture ratio of the display unit. One aspect of this invention provides a manufacturing method characterized in that the impurity regions of both high voltage thin film transistors and high performance thin film transistors which differ in the thickness of gate insulation are formed by implanting a dopant through the same two-layered film. Another aspect of this invention reduces the area occupied by the drive circuit in the display unit by utilizing an extension of one layer of the insulation film included in each thin film transistor.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2005Date of Patent: January 29, 2008Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Takeshi Satou, Toshihiko Itoga, Takeo Shiba
