Abstract: An inspection system includes two or more microphone units and an inspection controller. The two or more microphone units are disposed side by side in a vehicle. The inspection controller is configured to cause an inspection-target speaker to output an inspection sound, and determine, on the basis of a sound picked up by a main microphone unit and a sound picked up by one or more satellite microphone units, whether the inspection-target speaker passes or fails. The inspection-target speaker is any of one or more speakers mounted on the vehicle. The main microphone unit is one, of the microphone units, that is disposed at a position corresponding to a position of the inspection-target speaker. The one or more satellite microphone units are each one of the microphone units excluding the main microphone unit.

Abstract: An external airbag includes an airbag body and an urging portion. The airbag body is deployed to extend in front of a front pillar and upward along the front pillar from a lower end of the front pillar. The front pillar is disposed along a lateral edge of a windshield of an automobile. The urging portion urges downward a vicinity of a leading end of the airbag body deployed upward along the front pillar such that the leading end is moved back downward along the front pillar, and that forms a space between an intermediate portion of the airbag body and the front pillar.

Abstract: An electric oil pump is coupled to a pump receptacle including an oil inflow passage and an oil outflow passage. The electric oil pump includes a motor, a pump rotor, a housing, and a check valve. The housing accommodates the motor and the pump rotor. The housing closes an opening of the pump receptacle and includes at least a fitted portion fitted into the pump receptacle. An oil compartment is formed between the pump receptacle and the housing. Oil flows into the oil compartment from the oil inflow passage when the pump rotor is rotated. The fitted portion is partially immersed in the oil collected in the oil compartment. The housing includes a suction port and a discharge port. A check valve, located in the housing, limits reversed flow of the oil from the oil compartment to the oil inflow passage.
