Patent number: 10254539Abstract: On the basis of information detected from a peripheral situation detecting section and information from an automatic driving support section, a display control section generates image data in which marks for driving support of an own vehicle are drawn so as to be superposed on a forward situation diagram that shows a situation at a front side. Further, from information detected by an eye detecting section and from the image data, the display control section sets a vanishing point in accordance with a height position of eyes and computes a display image. Moreover, on the basis of the information detected by the eye detecting section, the display control section causes a display image to be displayed on the front windshield glass by a HUD such that the vanishing point is set in accordance with the height position of the eyes.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2017Date of Patent: April 9, 2019Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Yoko Ishiguro, Hidenori Uno

Patent number: 9989275Abstract: A front movable louver is configured for one central horizontal fin axially supported to be turnable in the horizontal direction substantially at the up-down center inside an air outlet, while an upper auxiliary horizontal fin is axially supported so as to be storable and turnable in the horizontal direction in a storing recess provided on an upper wall surface inside the air outlet, and a lower auxiliary horizontal fin axially supported to be storable and turnable in the horizontal direction in a storing recess provided on a lower wall surface inside the air outlet. The central horizontal fin is axially supported to be turnable by pivots provided to project substantially at the centers of both sides. The upper auxiliary horizontal fin and the lower auxiliary horizontal fin are axially supported to be turnable in a manner of sticking out downstream-side end portions to a passage side.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2012Date of Patent: June 5, 2018Assignee: HOWA PLASTICS CO., LTD.Inventors: Hiroyuki Oe, Yoko Ishiguro

Patent number: 9758020Abstract: The front movable louver (3) includes one central fin (7) and an upper auxiliary fin (8) and a lower auxiliary fin (9) storable in storing recesses (6a, 6b) inside an air outlet. The central fin (7) is axially supported turnably by pivots (7a) provided on both sides of the vicinity of the downstream side end portion. The upper auxiliary fin (8) and the lower auxiliary fin (9) are axially supported turnably so as to stick out their downstream side end portions to the passage (5) side by pivots provided on both sides of the vicinities of the upstream side end portions. A cam link mechanism (10) turns the upper auxiliary fin (8) and the lower auxiliary fin (9) so that the upper auxiliary fin (8) sticks out its downstream side end portion to the passage side, and the lower auxiliary fin (9) becomes parallel to and approaches the central fin (7) so that these fins function as one large fin when the central fin (7) is turned in the short-side direction of the air outlet (15).Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2013Date of Patent: September 12, 2017Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Hiroyuki Oe, Yoko Ishiguro

Publication number: 20160272119Abstract: An image projecting device and a driving support device, that can suppress light from a projecting unit heading toward eyes of a vehicle occupant, are provided. An image projecting device that structures a visual information supplementing device has: a projector that is disposed at a side opposite a cabin with respect to a roof head lining, and that projects an image through an opening, that is formed in the roof head lining, toward a vehicle cabin interior; and an erect wall that is a concealing structure that conceals the opening from a field of view of a driver.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 18, 2015Publication date: September 22, 2016Applicant: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Yoko ISHIGURO
