Abstract: An electric vehicle including a motor as a driving source includes: an accelerator; a pseudo shifter mimicking a gear changing operation; a pseudo clutch mimicking a clutch operation; a detector detecting an operation mode performed on each of the accelerator, pseudo shifter, and pseudo clutch by a driver, and a rotation speed of a driving wheel; a reaction force generator generating a reaction force in the pseudo shifter in response to a driver operation performed thereon; and a controller determining the reaction force. The controller includes a processor and a memory coupled thereto. The processor calculates a virtual differential rotation speed that is based on a virtual engine rotation speed, mimicking an engine rotation speed when the driving source is assumed as being an engine, and the rotation speed based on a detection result of the detector, and determines the reaction force based on the virtual differential rotation speed.

Abstract: A vehicle includes one or more processors, and one or more memories coupled to the one or more processors. The one or more processors cooperate with a program included in the one or more memories to execute a process, the process including: obtaining numerical values related to multiple factors in actual driving prior to an execution of virtual driving not involving actual vehicle movement, and forming a population; detecting the execution of the virtual driving; and determining abnormal driving based on a distance from a center position of the population of the numerical values obtained in the actual driving after the execution of the virtual driving.

Abstract: A disc drive includes a main body having a roughly box-shaped casing and a top plate which covers the upper side of the casing, a disc tray having a disc holding portion in which an optical disc is to be placed and being movable with respect to the main body through an opening formed on the front side of the main body, and a convex portion provided on the top plate so as to protrude inside the main body and having a shape that its horizontal cross-sectional area decreases gradually toward a tip thereof. The convex portion being positioned in a region of the top plate corresponding to the disc holding portion of the disc tray in a state that the disc tray is fully inserted into the main body. The disc drive may further includes a roughly arc-shaped ridge portion formed in the region of the top plate so as to protrude inside the main body. The ridge portion also has a shape that its horizontal cross-sectional area decreases gradually toward a tip thereof.

Abstract: A case of a disk device includes a case body, having a bottom plate and a pair of side plates extending upright respectively from opposite side edges of the bottom plate, a lid member, provided substantially parallel to the bottom plate, and is connected to the two side plates, a box member, contained in the case body and the lid member assembled each other, and a positioning member, positioning the box member relative to the case body and the lid member.

Abstract: A disk device for playing back information recorded on an optical disk, includes a device body; a disk tray, moving in the device body between a charging position, into which the optical disk is charged, and a discharging position from which the optical disk is discharged; a chassis, provided in the device body; a turntable, moving between an ascending position and a descending position when the chassis is displaced, and the turntable on which the optical disk is set; and a disk clamper, pivotally arranged on an upper plate of the device body, and clamping the optical disk against the turntable when the turntable is moved to the ascending position. The disk clamper is arranged on the upper plate with a clearance therebetween so that the disk clamper is moved in all radial directions, and an amount of the clearance in a first direction, in which the disk tray moves from the discharging position to the charging position, is smaller than amounts of the clearance in the other directions.

Abstract: An optical disk drive includes a first gear formed on a rotary shaft of a motor, a second gear meshing with the first gear, a third gear co-axially and integrally rotating with the second gear, a fourth gear meshing with the third gear, and a slider to which the fourth gear is mounted, and sliding in accordance with a rotation of the third gear. The third gear is press-fitted into a mating hole of the second gear. The second gear and the third gear slip at a press fitting portion one another when a torque having a predetermined value or greater is applied to the press fitting portion.

Abstract: A lead wiring structure, includes a wall portion, having a first face and a second face, and having a first penetrating portion which penetrate from the first face to the second face and through which a lead is passed. The first penetrating portion has a third face and a fourth face which are opposite to each other via a pass of the lead. The first face forms an acute angle with the third face, and the second face forms an acute angle with the fourth face.

Abstract: A structure of mounting a flexible wiring board, includes a strap-like flexible wiring board, a base member, a moving member and a shape-restricting member. The strap-like flexible wiring board has a first curvature portion curved in a substantially inverted manner with its front and rear sides reversed, a second curvature portion curved in a direction opposite to a direction of curvature of the first curvature portion and an intermediate portion disposed between the first and second curvature portions. The base member has a first fixing portion which fixes a first end portion of the flexible wiring board. The moving member is mounted for movement relative to the base member. The moving member has a second fixing portion which fixes the second end portion of the flexible wiring board. The shape-restricting member restricts a shape of the intermediate portion so that a part of the intermediate portion is deformed to project into a convex shape when viewed from a side thereof.
