Abstract: An opening and closing body control device includes a distance detection unit that detects a detection distance, which is a distance to a detected object around an opening and closing body, and a control unit. When a start command is input, the control unit determines whether the detected object is a moving object or a stationary object, sets a first or second collision determination distance as a collision determination distance depending on whether the detected object is moving or stationary. When the detection distance is smaller than the collision determination distance, the control unit controls the drive unit to stop operation of the opening and closing body.

Abstract: A tire has a tread pattern comprising a series of a number N of tread design units arranged repeatedly and circumferentially of the tire in a sequence. The tread design units have at least two different circumferential lengths. Viewing the tread design units as pulses, a pulse train is defined. Magnitudes of the pulses are proportional to the circumferential lengths of the tread design units. The average of the magnitudes corresponding to the different circumferential lengths is limited to 1.00. Maximum value Fmax of amplitude F(k) of k-th order (k=1 to 2N) of frequencies obtained by Fourier transforming the pulse train is limited to be 4.52?0.0125 N. The amplitudes F(k) and F(k+1) of every two of the adjacent orders (k) and (k+1) are limited so as not to satisfy a condition that both of the amplitudes F(k) and F(k+1) are 2/3 or more times the Fmax.
