  • Patent number: 9932952
    Abstract: An electricity supply device that reduces a delay in starting an engine. A vehicle includes a starter motor for starting an engine, a start magnet making and breaking connection between the starter motor and a battery, a fuel pump, and a control unit controlling fuel injection and ignition timing of the engine. An electricity supply device of the vehicle includes: a main relay making and breaking connection between a load of the vehicle, the load not including the starter motor, the start magnet, and the battery; a clutch switch connected to the battery, and set in a conducting state when a clutch lever is gripped; a start switch connected between the clutch switch and a coil of the start magnet; and a diode allowing a current to flow from a point of connection between the clutch switch and the start switch to a coil of the main relay.

  • Patent number: 9199680
    Abstract: A vehicle anti-theft device (60) is configured from: a box-like case body (132) having on the bottom (161) a hole (173) through which air comes in and goes out; a movement display member (170) of which the center is arranged along the perpendicular line extending from the center of the hole (173), and which is secured to the ceiling (162) of the case body by means of a tool (176) inserted from the hole (173) and transmits the movement, state to the outside of the case body (132); and a substrate (67) which is built into the case body (132) and on which electronic components for actuating the movement display member (170) are mounted.
