Abstract: An apparatus for continuously and adjustably subdividing a space. The apparatus contains front and rear rails, each having a rail aperture and a rail channel, a divider panel, and a first fastener and a second fastener that can be inserted into the rail aperture of the front and rear rails, respectively, and can be retained within the rail channel of the front and rear rails, respectively. Widened notches are formed in the rails more than a minimum subspace distance from surface intersections, so that fasteners for subspace-defining structures or subspace-functional elements can be inserted and removed. Preferably, the rails are inset flush with the interior surfaces of the interior space.

Abstract: An electric mirror control device is provided which can prevent generation of a clutch noise by stopping slipping of a clutch provided at an actuator as quickly as possible while preventing narrowing of an allowable range of a tilting angle of a mirror surface. In controlling an electric mirror, a control device clamps a voltage value of a voltage applied to a motor detected by a mirror surface angle detection circuit to a predetermined upper limit value and a predetermined lower limit value at a clamp circuit. Stop control of the motor is performed based on the voltage value clamped to the upper limit value and the lower limit value in this way.

Abstract: The present invention provides a DC brush motor rotation amount detection method comprising the steps of: counting pulses generated by switching of brushes when a DC brush motor rotates; removing any noise pulse generated during a pulse rejection period which is shorter than a pulse interval and which is started when each pulse is generated; counting pulses generated during pulse acceptance periods outside the pulse rejection periods; and detecting a rotation amount of the DC brush motor, wherein the pulse rejection period during steady-state operation of the DC brush motor is ended when a predetermined time elapses from a start point of the pulse rejection period, where the predetermined time is calculated by multiplying a pulse interval of a corresponding pulse zone one rotation before a pulse zone to which the pulse rejection period belongs by a coefficient K(½<K<1).
