  • Patent number: 10643570
    Abstract: Provided is a technique that prevents excessive determination that control in a display control apparatus is abnormal. The display control apparatus includes an image acquisition unit, an image transmitter, and a controller. The controller determines, whenever necessary, on the basis of a second image that is output from the image transmitter and check data that is acquired in the image acquisition unit, whether the control in the display control apparatus is abnormal. The controller stops the determination until a predetermined time elapses from a first time point, the predetermined time being equal to or greater than a time from the first time point at which the check data is input to the controller to a second time point at which the second image is input to the controller.

  • Patent number: 10584799
    Abstract: In a pressure reduction valve device, a valve body and a distal end portion of a support member are accommodated in a valve accommodation hole of a body. The distal end portion is inserted through an urging member accommodation hole. An inner introduction passage is formed between an outer peripheral surface of the distal end portion and an inner peripheral surface of the urging member accommodation hole. An outer introduction passage is formed between an outer surface of the valve body and an inner surface of the valve accommodation hole. The support member is provided with communication holes that establish communication between a gas inlet provided through the body and the valve accommodation hole in an axial direction. The inner introduction passage and the outer introduction passage are opposed, in an axial direction thereof, to the communication passage.

  • Publication number: 20190363331
    Abstract: A conductive member (61) is disposed near a side of the sealing plate (2) facing an electrode assembly with a first insulating member (10) disposed therebetween. The conductive member (61) has a conductive-member opening portion (61f) at a side thereof facing the electrode assembly. The conductive-member opening portion (61f) of the conductive member (61) is sealed by a deformation plate (62). The deformation plate (62) is connected to a first positive-electrode current collector (6a), which is electrically connected to positive electrode plates. The deformation plate (62) includes an annular rib (62b) that projects toward the electrode assembly at the outer peripheral edge thereof. The deformation plate (62) also includes an annular thin portion (62c) in a region inside the annular rib (62b).

  • Patent number: 10134369
    Abstract: According to a drawing control device according to the present invention, graphics capable of implementing reality is displayed on a surface-shaped drawing device in a vehicle. A degree of importance is provided for each of components to be displayed (a drawing object, a drawing component and a decoration component), and the degree of importance is changed in accordance with the state of the vehicle. The drawing arrangement order is changed in accordance with the degree of importance to draw and display each of the components. As a result, the drawing control device can prevent any decoration component for pursuing reality from hiding information necessary to the driver from view.
