  • Patent number: 10011206
    Abstract: A simply structured vehicle seat with reduced number of parts includes a cap for covering an anchor storage recess which stores an anchor to be engaged with an engagement member attached to a child seat. The anchor storage recess includes a side part and a bottom part. A cap is provided for covering the anchor storage recess, and includes a flange part, a main body part, and a slit. The main body part has a dimension larger than an inner dimension of the side part of the anchor storage recess. The cap is detachably fitted with the anchor storage recess by engagement between the anchor and the slit and pressure contact between the side part of the anchor storage recess and the main body part of the cap, when the main body of the cap is inserted along the side part into the anchor storage recess.

  • Patent number: 9272642
    Abstract: In a vehicle seat (car seat 1) including a first seat portion (seat cushion 10) movable between a use position and a retracted position, and a second seat portion (seat back 20) movable between a use position and a retracted position, an actuator mechanism is configured to cause the second seat portion to start moving toward its retracted position at a time when the first seat portion passes a predetermined intermediate position that is on a way from the use position toward the retracted position.

  • Patent number: 7811526
    Abstract: This invention provides a dripping nozzle device to produce ADU particles with good sphericity, a device for recovering a feedstock liquid to prepare a uniform feedstock liquid, a device for supplying a feedstock liquid to form drops with a uniform volume, a device for solidifying the surfaces of drops so that the drops will not deform easily when they fall onto and hit the surface of an aqueous ammonia solution, a device for circulating an aqueous ammonia solution so that the uranyl nitrate in the drops can be changed to ammonium diuranate completely, to such an extent that uranyl nitrate in the center of each drop is changed to ammonium diuranate, and an apparatus for producing ammonium diuranate particles with good sphericity. The dripping nozzle device is provided with a single vibrator to vibrate nozzles simultaneously. The device for recovering a feedstock liquid recovers the feedstock liquid remaining in the nozzles and mixes it with a fresh feedstock liquid.

  • Patent number: 6416107
    Abstract: In a seat-receiving structure for a vehicle, seats are mounted on a floor surface within a vehicle room, and are arranged in a forward-rearward direction, and a seat-receiving recess is formed in and extends downwardly from a floor surface disposed rearwardly of the rearmost-row seat, and the rearmost-row seat can be folded in such a manner that a seat back thereof is brought down forwardly to be laid on a seat cushion thereof, and the folded seat can be turned rearwardly about rotation shafts to be received in the seat-receiving recess. The floor surface, in which the seat-receiving recess 11 is formed, is disposed at a level higher than a foot-resting floor surface 3c for the rearmost-row seat. The rotation shafts 26 on the seat cushion 10a of the rearmost-row seat 10 are disposed at a level which is lower than the floor surface 3f, in which the seat-receiving recess 11 is formed, and also is lower than an upper side 11a of the receiving recess.

  • Patent number: 5816640
    Abstract: Closure apparatus of a vehicle includes a passenger compartment side push knob capable of being locked and unlocked by a locking mechanism. When the locking mechanism is unlocked, the push knob is put in an actuatable condition in which the push knob can be lowered by depressing it with a finger. In conjunction with the downward movement of the push knob, a trunk side push knob moves downward to unlock the lid. The lid is pulled down toward the passenger compartment side whereupon the passenger compartment and the trunk area communicate with each other. The trunk side push knob can be depressed without regard to the locked and unlocked conditions of the locking mechanism. When this push knob is depressed, the lid is unlocked and hence can be pulled down toward the passenger compartment side for making a communication between the passenger compartment and the trunk area.

  • Patent number: 5303041
    Abstract: In a special effects apparatus that processes an input video signal in accordance with a key signal representing an image pattern, a processing circuit processes the input video signal in accordance with the key signal and outputs a processed video signal which is stored in a video memory and fed back from the video memory to the processing circuit for further processing of the processed video signal in accordance with the key signal and the input video signal. A motion detection circuit detects motion of the image pattern represented by the key signal and a control circuit prevents the processed video signal from being stored in the video memory when the motion detector does not detect motion in the image pattern so that a desired soft-edged special effect can be maintained when there is no motion of the image pattern represented by the key signal.

  • Patent number: 4725895
    Abstract: In a helical-scan video tape recorder, when the color framing of a reproduced video signal when a magnetic tape is stopped and of a reference video signal when an activation command signal is sent to control means for controlling a capstan motor do not coincide, the activation state of a magnetic tape of the video tape recorder (VTR) is so controlled that the color framings of both video signals are quickly matched with each other.

  • Patent number: 4698703
    Abstract: A capstan servo system for a video tape recording and/or reproducing apparatus permits recording of a new video signal precisely commenced at a selected edit point. For this, the capstan servo system is provided a tape speed error dependent feedback control feature and a phase error dependent feedback control feature. Tape speed error dependent feedback control is carried out when the recording and/or reproducing apparatus operates in recording or assemble edit mode. Phase error dependent feedback control is carried out when the recording and/or reproducing apparatus operates in reproducing or playback mode.
