  • Patent number: 12286103
    Abstract: An apparatus for object detection includes a processor configured to detect an object around a vehicle by inputting a sensor signal into a classifier. The sensor signal is obtained by at least one sensor for sensing the situation around the vehicle, and the sensor is mounted on the vehicle. The processor is further configured to set the degree of omission of computation so that at least part of computation on the sensor signal by the classifier will be omitted when the speed of the vehicle is not greater than a predetermined speed threshold and the situation around the vehicle does not correspond to any of predetermined exceptional situations.

  • Patent number: 12250020
    Abstract: A timing detection device includes a main reference code generation module, an auxiliary reference code generation module, a first correlation processing module, a second correlation processing module, and a subtraction module. The main reference code generation module generates a main reference code consisting of the same code for synchronization included in a received signal. Using a portion of the same code as the code for synchronization, the auxiliary reference code generation module generates an auxiliary reference code consisting of a code configuration different from the main reference code and without generating a main lobe during correlation processing. The first correlation processing module correlates the received signal with the main reference code and outputs a first correlation result. The second correlation processing module correlates the received signal with the auxiliary reference code and outputs a second correlation result.

  • Patent number: 11850647
    Abstract: A punch and a pad sandwiching a top sheet portion, bending blades for bend-forming the vertical wall portions, and stoppers facing the bending blades are provided. The punch is supported by a first cushion component. The bending blades each have an upper die component and a lower die component disposed facing each other in the press direction with an interval equal to a set compression amount in the range of 2% or more and 6% or less of the heights of the vertical wall portions and a second cushion component interposed between the upper die component and the lower die component, maintaining the interval, and contractible in the press direction. The cushion pressure of the second cushion component is lower than the cushion pressure of the first cushion component and has such cushion pressure that the second cushion component does not contract during the bend-forming of the vertical wall portions.

  • Patent number: 11248816
    Abstract: An air conditioner which continues driving with a deteriorated gas leakage sensor is provided. An air conditioner of the present invention includes an outdoor unit including a compressor and an indoor unit connected with the outdoor unit and uses flammable refrigerant. The air conditioner includes: a refrigerant gas sensor; and a controlling unit configured to stop the compressor at occurrence of abnormality, when the refrigerant gas sensor detects refrigerant gas while the compressor is being driven. After the compressor is stopped as the refrigerant gas sensor detects the refrigerant gas, the controlling unit does not start driving of the compressor until an operation to cancel the abnormality is performed.

  • Patent number: 9677798
    Abstract: A refrigerating device includes a compressor, a temperature detector and a protection control section. The compressor compresses a refrigerant. The temperature detector detects a temperature of the refrigerant discharged from the compressor on an outside of the compressor. The protection control section judges that a transition following a starting of the compressor is in effect and that a steady state following an end of the transition in which a state of the refrigerant is stable is in effect, performs protection control on the compressor when a detected temperature detected by the temperature detector exceeds a first determination temperature during the transition, and performs the protection control on the compressor when the detected temperature exceeds a second determination temperature during the steady state.
