Abstract: A vehicle driving assistance device according to the invention is intended to improve the reliability of driving assistance and includes a vehicle sensor that acquires vehicle behavior information about the behavior of a vehicle, an inter-vehicle communication unit that acquires other-vehicle behavior information about the behavior of another vehicle which travels in front of the vehicle, a traffic condition estimating unit that estimates traffic conditions between the vehicle and another vehicle on the basis of the vehicle behavior information and the other-vehicle behavior information, and a driving assistance unit that performs driving assistance on the basis of the estimation result of the traffic condition estimating unit.

Abstract: The amount of traffic on the road is greatly affected by both an inter-vehicle distance and a vehicle speed. When the amount of traffic increases and is more than a threshold value, an ECU 20 and an ACC 30 control the inter-vehicle distance and the vehicle speed such that the amount of traffic is a predetermined value equal to or more than the threshold value. In this way, it is possible to effectively suppress traffic congestion.

Abstract: An automotive vehicle having a pre-selected function, and including a controller which controls an object and includes a plurality of redundant elements which are redundant with each other, and a function restraining portion which partially or fully restrains the function of the vehicle, when a pre-selected failure which has occurred to one of the redundant elements has not solved before another of the redundant elements has operated for more than a pre-set time since the occurrence of the failure.

Abstract: A deceleration control apparatus for a vehicle including a controller that performs deceleration control based on a first target deceleration set based on a distance to a starting point of an upcoming curve, when the deceleration control for the curve is started at a position distant from the starting point of the curve; and that performs the deceleration control based on a second target deceleration set based on a lateral acceleration that is estimated to be detected when the vehicle passes the starting point of the curve, when the deceleration control for the curve is started at a position close to the starting point of the curve. With this apparatus, it is possible to perform the deceleration control that provides drive assist according to the intention of the driver and that enhances driving convenience for the driver.

Abstract: A small and thin IC socket allowing BGA/LGA IC package to be connected to a printed circuit board is disclosed. The IC socket includes a socket body having a plurality of main through-holes formed between the top and bottom surfaces thereof, corresponding to respective ones of the terminals of the IC. In each of the main through-holes, a pair of an upper contact member and a lower contact member which are accommodated and are electrically connected to each other. At least the upper contact member is slidably accommodated and biased to protrude from the top surface of the body. An external connection printed circuit board is fixed to the top surface of the socket body and has a plurality of upper plated through-holes corresponding to respective ones of the main through-holes. The upper contact member protrudes through a corresponding one of the upper through-holes and is electrically connected to a corresponding one of wiring conductors.

Abstract: A multi-pin terminal adapter for connection to a printed circuit board comprises a generally rectangular substrate having a row of transversely extending guide grooves distributed in equally spaced relation over each of its four sides. A multiplicity of contact pins each extend discretely in and through the guide grooves for connection with the printed circuit board. The substrate has a cavity dimensioned to receive an integrated circuit for connection between the multi-pin terminal adapter and a relay socket which is releasably connected to the substrate.

Abstract: A multiple-pin terminal adapter comprising a substrate and a multiplicity of electrical contact pins extending from above and below the substrate for connection with printed circuit boards. A first group of contact pins extend downwardly for connection with the underlying printed circuit board, while a second group of contact pins extend upwardly out of axial alignment with the first group to assume a generally meander or otherwise random formation whereby adjacent contact pins in the second group are spaced a sufficient distance apart from one another to facilitate access for solder connection. A relay socket means is also provided for use in combination with the terminal adapter to provide easy access for connection to printed circuit boards packed with high density electrical components.
