Abstract: In the electrode for preventing noise electric wave according to the present invention in which the resistivity of the second layer is larger than that of the first layer, it is possible to prevent the generation of noise electric wave. In the electrode for preventing noise electric wave according to the present invention in which the layer for preventing noise electric wave has the porosity of not more than 20%, it is possible to prevent the radio noise. In the electrode for preventing noise electric wave according to the present invention in which the high-fusing conductive material layer exists between the substrate and the resisting material layer, it is possible to prevent the formation of the concave portion.

Abstract: An engine control apparatus includes a first intake valve and a second intake valve provided along an intake passage. First and second actuators drive the respective throttle valves. A setting unit sets a vehicle target speed in the constant cruising speed control mode. A first control unit controls the first actuator so as to maintain the actual vehicle speed at the target speed during the constant cruising speed control mode. An angle sensor detects the angle of the first throttle valve. A mode memory stores information about a plurality of control modes to be used in controlling the second throttle valve. A mode selector selects one of the control modes. Each control mode stored in the mode memory defines the target angle of the second throttle valve that depends on the angle of the first throttle valve.

Abstract: An engine is automatically stopped under predetermined conditions, thereafter, restarted under other predetermined conditions. The conditions of automatically stopping the engine includes at least a stopped state of a wiper which is driven by two-speed typed motor. Operating condition of the motor for driving the wiper is detected by a signal from either a low terminal or a high terminal of the motor.

Abstract: In a system wherein the operating conditions of various portions of a vehicle are detected and an engine is automatically stopped and started in accordance with the operating conditions thus detected, a fuel supply system is cut to prevent the run-on of the engine in addition to the cut-off of current passage to an ignition system as in the prior art. There controls are effected when both any one or more of predetermined operating conditions and any one or more of conditions of precluding the automatic stop are present.
