Abstract: An occupant sensing ECU determines an occupant state on a seat by comparing occupant determination threshold values with a corresponding sensed load data value, which is originated from load sensors. The ECU stores an adjustment value, which is used to adjust a predetermined design value of each of the occupant determination threshold values. The adjustment value is a difference between an empty-state 0 point load value and a predetermined design value of the empty-state 0 point load value.

Abstract: A passenger detection device for a vehicle is provided with multiple load sensors, each of which detects a load on a seat of the vehicle within a predetermined detection range of the load sensor, and an ECU that determines passenger information of the seat. The ECU has at least one calculation range, each of which limits the detection range of each corresponding one of the multiple load sensors. The ECU determines the passenger information based on a detection data value of each load sensor, which is outputted from the load sensor and falls within the corresponding calculation range of the load sensor.

Abstract: Each front sensor senses a load, which is applied to a front part of a seat, and each rear sensor senses a load, which is applied to a rear part of the seat. A size of an entire load sensing range of each front sensor is smaller than a size of an entire load sensing range of each rear sensor.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a wire wound electronic component with stable quality, as well as raising reliability thereof by improving heat radiation, water-proofness, resistance against static electricity, resistance against stresses, magnetic characteristic thereof. Powder of one or both of an inorganic material and a metallic material having higher thermal conductivity than a resin is added as a filler in the above resin, or a mixture of one or both of powders of the said inorganic material or the said metallic material and powders of a ferrite material for magnetic shielding is added as a filler in the above resin. When a sealing resin comprising a high thermal conductive material added thereto is used, heat generated inside a wire wound electronic component by passing a current through a coil conductor is effectively released outside the component, and the component can have a good heat radiation.
