Abstract: A substrate for a composite membrane includes a microporous polyolefin membrane for carrying a hydrophilic resin compound within the pores of the microporous membrane wherein: the average pore diameter is 1 nm to 50 nm; the porosity is 50% to 78%; the membrane thickness is 1 ?m to 12 ?m; and, when a mixed solution of ethanol and water (volume ratio 1/2) is dripped onto a surface of the microporous polyolefin membrane which has not undergone hydrophilization treatment, the contact angle ?1 between the droplet and the surface is 0 to 90 degrees 1 second after the dripping, and the contact angle ?2 between the droplet and the surface is 0 to 70 degrees 10 minutes after the dripping, and the rate of change of the contact angle ((?1??2)/?1×100) is 10 to 50%.

Abstract: A geared electric motor 1 used for power window apparatuses, for example, which is provided with an mature 7 having an armature shaft 7a, an output shaft 8 connected with the armature shaft 7a through a worm gear pair (7a7 and 17) and two friction plates 9 and 10 to be in contact with both end faces of the armature shaft 7a. The armature shaft 7a of this motor 1 is prevented from rotation by frictional resistance generating between the friction plates 9, 10 and the armature shaft 7a even if the output shaft 8 is applied with rotatory force.

Abstract: A sunroof motor having a roof lid position detector which comprises a motor part, a roof lid detective disc to be turned as much as an angle in proportion to an amount of movement of a roof lid driven by the motor part, a contact plate having contacts and disposed on the roof lid detective disc, a printed wiring board mounted with a relay to supply or shut off the electric power to the motor part and formed with a motor driving circuit which is provided with board-side contacts to be in contact electrically with the contacts of the contact plate for detecting the roof lid to arrive at the full-opened position, full-closed position and so on, for example.

Abstract: A sunroof driving apparatus includes a motor unit having a forwardly and reversely rotatable motor shaft and an output unit for converting rotation of the motor shaft into opening and closing movements of a sunroof lid. The motor unit and the output unit are disposed away from a roof of a motor vehicle.

Abstract: A small-sized electric motor is provided with a hole for inserting a circuit breaker in a holder base lying between a motor case and a gear case, and the circuit breaker is fixed to the holder base by inserting its own body in the hole of the holder base together with terminals at the state in which the terminals are in contact with electrical connective plates of the circuit breaker respectively, it is possible to fix up the circuit braker to the holder base of the motor by merely press-fitting and becomes possible to automate the assembly of the motor housing and the built-in circuit breaker.

Abstract: A small-sized electric motor includes a terminal with a positioner, complementary to a positioner on a brush holder equipped with a brush, for fastening the brush holder to the terminal by deformation of one positioner relative to the other, and a projection with a bendable piece for securing the terminal to a holder base by bending the bendable piece after it is inserted into a terminal hole.

Abstract: A seat belt apparatus for use in the restraining of a person on a seat of the vehicle includes a take-up mechanism, a webbing strap having one end secured to the take-up mechanism windably and the other end secured to the vehicle body by pulling it out from the take-up mechanism, a webbing detection mechanism provided near the take-up mechanism for detecting the pulled-out amount of the webbing strap and a restraining mechanism for restraining the movement of the webbing strap. The restraining mechanism may be released for a given time by a switch or the sensing of a shock. A webbing strap fold-up mechanism for folding-up the webbing strap in the direction of the length is provided and acts upon the sensing of shock so as to fold up excess strap when the webbing strap detecting mechanism detects that the webbing strap is pulled-out an amount more than a predetermined amount.

Abstract: A device for driving a roof-hatch includes a forwardly and reversely rotatable motor, an operation switch, a reduction mechanism having a friction clutch, and an auto-stopping device. The device makes it possible to facilitate the operation for opening or closing the roof-hatch and to prevent trouble in the running of the vehicle.

Abstract: An automatic car-speed controller is disclosed, which is provided with an actuator having a solenoid clutch comprising a sector wheel rotatable around a shaft and an output pulley rotatable independently from the sector wheel around the shaft coaxially. The sector wheel consists of a gear portion, a solenoid, and a sector arm alienating the solenoid from a rotational center thereof. The output pulley consists of a pulley portion attached with a throttle cable nearly to the rotational center, a magnetic body attracted by the solenoid of the sector wheel, and an arm connecting the magnetic body with the pulley portion.

Abstract: A device for detecting a revolution number of a connection shaft is disclosed. The device comprises a permanent magnet body attached to the connection shaft and a pulse generating means disposed apart from the magnet body, wherein the pulse generating means is arranged in a housing isolated from a casing for the connection shaft.

Abstract: An occupant restraining belt arrangement for a vehicle having a lap belt with one end fixed to a lower rear portion on the inside of a vehicle door. A first inertia retractor is mounted adjacent a lower inboard portion of a vehicle seat to receive and retract the other end of the lap belt. A shoulder belt has one end secured to an intermediate portion of the lap belt. A second inertia retractor is mounted adjacent an outboard portion of a roof of the vehicle body behind the seat to receive and retract the other end of the shoulder belt and a belt hanger is fixedly mounted on the vehicle body within the occupant compartment forward and above the seat.
