Abstract: A vehicle operation detection device includes processing circuitry configured to output a command causing an opening-closing body of a vehicle to open and close in reference to capacitances of sensor electrodes arranged so as to form a row. The processing circuitry is configured to determine that a first operation has been performed when one of the sensor electrodes of which the capacitance increases is sequentially shifted in a first direction from an operation start electrode and determine that a second operation has been performed when the shifting is performed in a second direction. The sensor electrodes include an adjacent electrode adjacent to the operation start electrode. The processing circuitry is configured to determine that the capacitance of the adjacent electrode has increased when the capacitance becomes greater than or equal to a second determination value that is greater than a first determination value.

Abstract: A vehicle opening and closing body control device includes a drive control unit that opens and closes an opening and closing body of a vehicle using a motor as a drive source, wherein the opening and closing body performs the opening and closing operation based on an operation of a link mechanism formed by first and second link arms having a first rotation connection point with respect to a vehicle body and a second rotation connection point with respect to the opening and closing body, wherein an opening and closing body engagement portion is provided at a closed-side end of the opening and closing body, and an engagement failure detector that detects a failure in engagement of the opening and closing body engagement portion with the vehicle body engagement portion based on a change in a motor current value in the specific operation section at a time of full-closing control of the opening and closing body.

Abstract: A control apparatus controlling an opening and closing member for a vehicle includes a drive control unit operating an opening and closing member of the vehicle by a motor serving as a drive source, and a catch detection unit detecting a catch of a foreign object caught by the opening and closing member in response to a current value of the motor. The drive control unit includes a motor control signal output unit outputting a motor control signal for supplying a drive power to the motor, and an advance-angle value setting unit setting an advance-angle value for advancing a phase of the motor control signal. The advance-angle value setting unit includes an advance-angle value increase prohibition unit prohibiting increase setting of the advance-angle value in a case where the current value of the motor reaches an advance-angle value increase prohibition current value.

Abstract: An opening and closing body control apparatus for a vehicle includes: a lock device that has a latch mechanism; and a control device that controls an operation of the lock device. The lock device has a rotation member rotating in first and second directions, and the latch mechanism performs close and release operations according to a rotating direction of the rotation member. The control device executes a close control for rotating the rotation member from a neutral position to a first position in the first direction to cause the latch mechanism to perform the close operation. The control device includes a neutral return control portion. The neutral return control portion includes a counter, a neutral return determination portion, and a count holding portion. In a case where the neutral return control is restarted, the count-up of the counter is restarted from the count value at the time of interruption.
