Abstract: An in-vehicle handsfree apparatus establishes concurrent connection between a BT interface device and a cellular phone with respect to a handsfree profile (HFP) for realizing a handsfree phone call, a message access profile (MAP) for realizing a mail transfer, and an audio video profile (AVP) for realizing an audio data transfer. During a duration of the concurrent connection being established, a disconnection request of HFP or MAP occurs. In such a case, MAP is disconnected in conjunction with having disconnected HFP, or HFP is disconnected in conjunction with having disconnected MAP.

Abstract: An in-vehicle handsfree apparatus is disclosed. The in-vehicle handsfree apparatus includes a handsfree connection section and a control section. The connection section establishes connection with first and second cellular phones by using a handsfree communication protocol. When the control section determines that the first and second cellular phones are respectively receiving incoming calls at a same time, the control section causes an display unit to distinctly display information associated with the incoming call of the first cellular phone and information associated with the incoming call of the second cellular phone.

Abstract: A heat dissipation assembly in which a heat generator and a heat dissipator are integrated via an electrically insulating and thermally conductive sheet, at least one surface of which a thermally conductive grease is applied to, in which the thermally conductive grease is incompatible with the electrically insulating and thermally conductive sheet. Heat from the heat generator such as a semiconductor device or the like can be effectively dissipated while an electrically insulating condition is maintained over a long period of time.

Abstract: The present invention configures a pushcart, in particular a baggage cart such as is used in airports, for ease of maneuverability in negotiating an escalator stairway. The cart is fitted with a front wheel assembly and pivotable rear wheel assemblies, as well as with drop-attenuating mechanisms fitted to each wheel assembly. The rear wheel assemblies each include a reverse-releasable, pivoting-lock mechanism. The drop attenuating mechanisms function when the pivotable wheel assemblies are locked in the pushcart advancing direction, and include damped-swing traction members for establishing adhesive friction in contacting the treads of a sloping escalator stairway. The traction members bear the pushcart through a damped swing if the wheel assemblies are not riding on the treads of the escalator steps.

Abstract: A fall suppressing device 8 provided in a cart for moving up and down an escalator includes an engagement member 87 and an oil damper 81. The engagement member 87 is vertically movably coupled to the cart, and engages with an upper step when a wheel 5 falls from the upper step. The oil damper 81 damps a relative moving speed between a cart body and the engagement member 87.

Abstract: A powered vehicle is configured to stably and reliably ride on an escalator and includes a vehicle body (1), front and rear wheels (2) and (3), a drive mechanism (42), and front and rear supports (4) and (5). The front and rear wheels (2) and (3) are supported on front and rear portions of the vehicle body, respectively. The drive mechanism (42) drives the rear wheels. The front and rear supports (4) and (5) are arranged adjacent to the corresponding front wheels (2) and behind the rear wheels (3), respectively. The front or rear supports (4) and (5) land on the step surface at least when the vehicle body (1) is inclined at a maximum inclination portion of the escalator. At this time, the wheels (2) or (3) remote from the landed supports (5) or (4) land on another step of the escalator.

Abstract: A motorized cart is disclosed which allows a rider to safely ride an escalator. The motorized cart includes front wheels 2 and rear wheels 3 mounted on a vehicle body 1. A first support portion 6 is formed on the bottom of the vehicle body 1, and includes a plurality of contact portions which support the vehicle body 1 on the step surfaces of the escalator when it reaches the maximum inclined portion of the escalator.

Abstract: A refrigeration cycle or an air conditioner including a refrigeration cycle is subjected to feedback control based on modern control theory. An apparatus controlling a controlled object, that is, the refrigeration cycle of the air conditioner including the refrigeration cycle, is formed as an optimal regulator. A controlled input to the controlled object includes a capacity of a compressor or a degree of opening of an expansion valve. A control output from the controlled object includes a temperature of air at a point downstream of the evaporator or a superheat of refrigerant. Feedback gains are predetermined by use of dynamic models constructed for respective steady operation states of the controlled object.
