Patent number: 11485287Abstract: An electronic mirror system includes: a camera for capturing images of surroundings of a vehicle; a display unit for displaying an image captured by the camera; a switch unit including an adjustment switch and a multi-function switch; and a control unit for performing a process according to a signal from the switch unit. When the multi-function switch is operated, the control unit executes a process selected from a plurality of set processes according to a state of the vehicle; and in a case where the executed process is a transition to a mode for changing setting information of the system, and when the adjustment switch is operated after the transition, the control unit changes the setting information according to a signal from the adjustment switch.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2020Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Katsuyuki Fukuda, Tomoaki Iida, Goro Asai, Kunihiro Sugihara, Taichi Hasegawa

Publication number: 20100032336Abstract: A package member includes a first cushioning member and a bottom supporting member that supports the first cushioning member. The first cushioning member includes concave portions in which bottoms of a plurality of packaged articles are fitted, and a convex portion that is inserted between the packaged articles. A predetermined space is formed at backsides of the concave portions. The bottom supporting member is arranged in the predetermined space in contact with the backside of any of the concave portions of the first cushioning member and is inflatable when filled with air.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 25, 2009Publication date: February 11, 2010Applicant: FUJITSU LIMITEDInventors: Hiromitsu Yokoyama, Katsuyuki Fukuda

Patent number: 6181520Abstract: A disk storage unit includes an electro-magnetic slider which has a contact detecting function. The unit includes a rotating recording disk, a slider body having a head for reading and writing information with respect to the recording disk, a suspension for supporting the slider body in such a manner that the slider body is opposed to the recording medium and flies above recording medium with a small gap therebetween owing to an air flow generated by a rotation of the recording disk. The suspension, on which the slider is mounted, has an electric resistance pattern formed on the suspension for detecting a strain generated on the resistance pattern when the slider body comes into contact with the disk recording medium.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 1998Date of Patent: January 30, 2001Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventor: Katsuyuki Fukuda

Patent number: 5627636Abstract: A distance measuring equipment which is useful in, for example, a collision prevention system wherein a laser beam is forward emitted from a vehicle to measure a distance between the vehicle and a forward vehicle, and an alarm is produced when the present vehicle abnormally approaches the forward vehicle. In the distance measuring equipment, when a correction instruction signal is supplied, a distance calculating circuit first drives an optically shielded light emitting element for correction to emit light, and produces a correction signal on the basis of a signal input into an adder connected to a light receiving element. Thereafter, the distance calculating circuit drives a light emitting element for measurement to emit light, and produces a distance measurement signal with referring the correction signal.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 1995Date of Patent: May 6, 1997Assignee: Kansei CorporationInventors: Jun Nishino, Katsuyuki Fukuda

Patent number: 5266955Abstract: A laser-radar type distance measuring equipment for a motor vehicle is shown, which comprises a probe unit including a laser emitting device and a reflected laser receiving device. The probe unit is mounted on the vehicle body. A steering angle sensor is used for producing an information signal representative of the steered angle of the vehicle. A so-called performance changing device is employed for changing the performance of the probe unit. A control unit controls the performance changing device in accordance with the information signal issued from the steering angle sensor.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 1992Date of Patent: November 30, 1993Assignee: Kansei CorporationInventors: Masao Izumi, Tomonari Ishikawa, Shigeki Hata, Katsuyuki Fukuda
