Abstract: The invention concerns a supply air terminal device (10) including a supply chamber (11) for the supply air and in the supply chamber (11) nozzles (12a1, 12a2 . . . ; 12b1, 12b2 . . . ), through which the supply airflow (L1) is conducted into a side chamber (B1) of the supply air terminal device, which side chamber is a structure open at the top part and at the bottom part. The supply air terminal device (10) includes a heat exchanger (14), which can be used either to cool or to heat the circulated airflow (L2). In the device solution, fresh supply air, which is conducted through the nozzles to the side chamber (B1), induces the circulated airflow (L2) to flow through the heat exchanger (14). The combined airflow (L1+L2) of supply airflow (L1) and circulated airflow (L2) is conducted out of the supply air terminal device (10). The supply air terminal device includes an induction ratio control device (15), which is used to control how much circulated airflow (L2) joins the supply airflow (L1).

Abstract: Provision of a power steering system which is capable of preventing a delay in response for outputting a solenoid current instruction value SI. A controller C stores a table of basic current instruction values I1 corresponding to combinations of steering angles and steering angular velocities. The controller C obtains a basic current instruction value I1 from the table, and multiplies the obtained basic current instruction value I1 by a current instruction value I2 determined on the basis of a vehicle speed, and then determines the multiplied value as a solenoid current instruction value SI.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to minimize the dependency of the vibration characteristic exhibited by the sheet-shaped supporting member supported by the metal springs on the added load. In a plurality of metal springs 41 to 44 supporting a sheet-shaped supporting member 30, a third metal spring 43 provided on the position to support the vicinity of the greater trochanter of the seated person is provided in a manner that an engagement portion with a frame member is positioned lower than the engagement portion with the sheet-shaped supporting member 30 when no load is applied. Accordingly, the feeling of something foreign created by such a third metal spring 43 can be reduced, and within a predetermined range of the added load, the third metal spring does not work functionally because respective engagement portions 43a and 43b take their positional relationship to be substantially horizontal in a static seating state, while it works functionally when the added load exceeds the above-described range.
