Abstract: A wiper device is provided that suppresses plastic deformation of a blade rubber of a wiper blade without wasting power of a battery installed to a vehicle. A wiper device is equipped with wiper blades that wipe a vehicle front glass, a wiper motor that swings the wiper blades in alternating between an upper turn position and a lower turn position by accompanied rotation of the output shaft, and a control unit that controls the wiper motor. In a case of the vehicle ignition switch being ON or OFF, the control unit controls the wiper motor such that from a stopped position where the wiper blades are located, the wiper blades are swung in a specific range of between a first stopping position and a second stopping position, and then stopped.

Abstract: A copper foil with an electric resistance film in which a film with higher electrical resistivity than the metal foil is provided on the metal foil, wherein a plurality of electric resistance films with different electric resistance is arranged in parallel on the same metal foil. With conventionally used built-in resistor elements, one resistor element is configured of one type of substance on the copper foil. Nevertheless, when actually mounting the resistor elements, the circuit design tolerance can be increased and the number of man-hours can be reduced with two resistor elements and further with a plurality of resistor elements compared to a case with one resistor element. This invention aims to provide a metal foil with a built-in resistor element comprising two or more types of resistor elements on one metal foil.
