Abstract: An optical connector includes a housing that receives a ferrule connected to a distal end of an optical fiber of an optical fiber cable, a crimping sleeve that includes a tubular portion adapted to allow the optical fiber to be inserted and also adapted to be inserted through a sleeve through-hole formed in a rear wall of the housing, and a sandwiching flange portion continued from the tubular portion and facing an rear wall inner surface of the housing, a crimping ring that fixes a sheath of the optical fiber cable sheathed on an outer circumference of the tubular portion, and a boot that includes a protective portion for covering outer circumferences of the optical fiber cable and the crimping ring and a locking flange portion continued from the protective portion and sandwiched between the sandwiching flange portion and the rear wall inner surface.

Abstract: An in-vehicle image correcting device for correcting an image picked up by a near-infrared camera ahead of one's own vehicle in which an obstacle is difficult for a driver to visually recognize captures the image picked up by the near-infrared camera; and corrects the image captured by the image capturing means so that a density of a pixel having a higher density than an obstacle density representative of the density of a pixel corresponding to the obstacle becomes lower than the obstacle density. In this configuration, the image picked up by the near-infrared camera is corrected so that the obstacle can be easily recognized.

Abstract: Positive electrode busbar 1 and 13 and negative electrode busbar 6 and 10 to 12 are provided. A plurality of positive electrode terminals 2a, 3a and 13a following to positive electrode busbar are disposed in one connector housing to constitute connectors 21 and 26, and a plurality of negative electrode terminals 8a, 9a and 10a to 12a following to negative electrode busbar are disposed in the other connector housing to constitute the connectors 24 and 25 of negative electrode and they are applied to the junction block circiut structure A. The positive electrode busbar 1 and 13 and negative electrode busbar 6 and 10 to 12 are disposed in different layer intervening an insulating plate. Each positive electrode busbar 1 and negative electrode busbar 6 is connected to the total output part of battery circuit, the total output part 1a and 6a of inverter circuit and other output parts, the other output parts are provided with positive terminals 2a and 3a and negative terminals 8a and 9a.

Abstract: A magnetic steering angle detection apparatus includes a magnet rotating in synchronization with a steering shaft mounted on a vehicle, senses a change of a magnetic field from the magnet by use of a hall IC mounted on a column side, and detects a rotation angle of the steering shaft. The magnet has S and N poles arranged on a plane of which normal line is in a substantially axial direction of the steering shaft. The hall IC is disposed such that a sensing direction of the hall IC is set to be a substantially single direction and the sensing direction is made to substantially coincide with the axial direction of the steering shaft.

Abstract: To allow a worker to check whether two first and second matable connector housings are securely engaged with each other and further to firmly lock the two connector housings, the first connector housing is provided with a pivotal locking member pivoted when the two connector housings are engaged with each other, and further locked to an arm locking bridge portion provided at the second connector housing when further pivoted by the worker for connector locking.
