Abstract: A vehicle input device for reducing the number of input operation keys of input operation devices that are arranged in a vehicle to control an operation of a large number of controlled apparatuses arranged in the vehicle is provided. An entry key for unlocking or locking a vehicle door is positioned to be movable in a specific input operation direction with respect to a housing fixed inside the vehicle. When the entry key is moved in the input operation direction, the movement is detected, whereby the entry key itself is used as an input operation key for controlling the operation of the controlled apparatuses arranged in the vehicle.

Abstract: A tape winding device (100) for a wire material, comprising a plurality of tension control rolls (110) and (120) installed on the flat surface of a tape winding flyer base plate (107) parallel with a hollow shaft (101). A tape body (1) is supplied from a tape pad (102) to the tape winding flyer base plate (107) according to the rotation of a first drive source (106), and the tape body (1) supplied to the tape winding flyer base plate (107) according to the rotation of a first drive source (106), and the tape body (1) supplied to the tape winding flyer base plate (107) is adjusted by the plurality of tension control rolls (110) and (120) so that its tension is made constant and wound on the wire material (10) at the tip of the hollow shaft (101) by the rotation of a second drive source (109). Thus, the tape body can be wound on the wire material without extending or cutting the tape body.

Abstract: There is provided a touch panel which has a simple configuration and which can be accurately and reliably operated. It includes a panel 12 constituting a display screen and an elongated piezoelectric element 16 disposed and secured along each of at least two edges of the panel 12 crossing each other. It includes a pressed position calculating circuit 20 for calculating a position in the panel 12 which has been pressed based on output from the piezoelectric elements 16. It includes a boosting circuit 30 serving as piezoelectric element driving means for applying a voltage to the piezoelectric elements 16 to vibrate them when the pressed position in the panel 12 is calculated by the piezoelectric elements 16 and the pressed position detecting circuit 20.
