  • Patent number: 7137665
    Abstract: A vehicular seat apparatus has a first slide rail unit including a first stationary rail and a first moving rail and a second slide rail unit including a second stationary rail and a second moving rail. Load sensors are provided between the seat cushion assembly and the moving rails. The first stationary rail and the second stationary rail are connected to each other by a rigid frame. The rigid frame can maintain the relative positions of the first and second slide rail units. Body mounting leg portions provided on the rigid frame are fixed to a seat mounting portion of a vehicle body.

  • Patent number: 6304182
    Abstract: A burglar detection apparatus has a tag 11 that includes a resonance circuit. The tag is preferably contained with an object 15 whose theft is desired to be detected. The tagged object may be placed in a drawer 14 which is contained in a box 13. A tag detection sensor 16 is installed in the box and detects whether the tag 11 is present in the drawer 14. Also, a drawer sensor 17 detects whether the drawer is opened. Based on respective detection outputs of the tag detection sensor 16 and the drawer sensor 17, a control circuit 19 controls an alarm 18. Advantageously, the apparatus can be installed in a comparatively small space, does not malfunction even if subjected to large amounts of electrical noise, and reliably detects the presence or absence of a tag even if the tag is located near a metal object.

  • Patent number: 6255947
    Abstract: A tag disclosed in this invention detects theft of bills, notes, or securities positioned therewith in a cash register, a safe, or the like. The capability of a tag-detecting sensor is not affected by a conductive or magnetic auxiliary member disposed between the sensor and the tag. The tag for detecting theft, which has one or more resonant circuit sections on an insulating base sheet, is positioned with an article in a specified place. An alarm is not activated when the tag is detected by the sensor, while it is activated when the tag is not detected by the sensor. At least one of the resonant circuit sections is disposed apart from the conductive or magnetic auxiliary member, with respect to the auxiliary member to be disposed between the sensor and the tag. The specified place refers to a case positioned in a cash register or a safe; the article includes bills, notes, or securities; and the auxiliary member is a metal retainer.
