  • Publication number: 20240085764
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a plurality of contacts electrically connectable to an accessory and arranged in a first direction orthogonal to a direction in which the accessory is attached. The contacts include an attachment detection contact to detect an attachment of the accessory to the electronic apparatus, and a communication request contact for a communication request from the accessory to the electronic apparatus. The attachment detection and communication request contacts are disposed between a contact closest one end and a contact closest to another end in the first direction. The attachment detection contact is disposed between the communication request contact and the contact closest to the one end. In the first direction, a distance between the attachment detection contact and the communication request contact is shorter than that between the communication request contact and the contact closest to the other end.

  • Patent number: 11731711
    Abstract: A vehicle front structure is provided for preventing a vortex from being generated between high-speed air separated from an outer edge of a deflector and low-speed air in a front wheel house due to a wind speed difference. Embodiments include a deflector disposed in front of a front wheel house projected downward from a lower surface of a bumper face. The deflector includes an air introducing section to introduce air into a space inside the deflector in a front portion of the deflector; and an intermediate-speed wind generating hole section that communicates with the air introducing section and generates an airflow at an intermediate wind speed, lower than a wind speed of air separated from deflector outer edges and higher than a wind speed of air in the front wheel house, in an area not opposing a tire in a vehicle front view of a portion immediately behind the deflector.

  • Patent number: 9173311
    Abstract: A power supply apparatus for sliding structure includes a wiring harness having an exterior member wired from a fixed structure-side power supply device to the sliding structure side, the fixed structure-side power supply device including an outer member fixed to the fixed structure, an inner member supported to the outer member so as to rotate in a horizontal direction and configured to support one end portion of the exterior member, and a harness trajectory regulation wall configured to rotate integrally with the inner member. When the sliding structure is fully-opened, the harness trajectory regulation wall projects outward from the outer member in a thickness direction of the sliding structure, such that the exterior member arranged along the harness trajectory regulation wall is moved away from the fixed structure toward the sliding structure side, preventing interference between the exterior member and the fixed structure.

  • Patent number: 7683259
    Abstract: For improving durability of a wiring harness of a power supply system used in a sliding structure, a power supply system includes a casing; a wiring harness; a harness supporter arranged along a base of the casing so as to move freely back-and-forth in the casing; and a constant force spring arranged along the base of the casing. The wiring harness is bent and wired along an outer surface of the harness supporter, and the harness supporter is biased with a spring force by the constant force spring so as to absorb an extra length of the wiring harness. A winding part of the constant force spring is separated from a harness receiving space of the casing, and an end of the constant force spring led from the winding part is connected and fixed to the harness supporter at an outside of the casing.
