Abstract: The present invention includes a mirror main body formed in a polygonal shape in a plan view and having a first main face that reflects an image, a second main face that is opposite to the first main face, and a peripheral edge face that connects the first main face and the second main face to each other, in which the peripheral edge face includes a plurality of first end faces and a second end face that connects the adjacent first end faces, and the second end face constitutes a first chamfered portion formed at an outer edge of the mirror main body in a plan view.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a windshield to which an information acquisition device configured to acquire information from the outside of a vehicle by emitting and/or receiving light is attachable via a bracket, the windshield including: a glass module that includes a glass body having an information acquisition region through which the light passes; a sheet-shaped heating element that is attached to a surface on a vehicle interior side of the glass body and is not rectangular; and a power supply part configured to supply power to the heating element.

Abstract: A windshield according to an aspect of the present invention is a windshield for an automobile on which an information acquisition device capable of acquiring information from the outside of a vehicle by emitting and/or receiving light can be arranged. The windshield includes; a glass plate including an information acquisition region that is opposite to the information acquisition device and through which the light passes; and an antifog laminate that includes a heat blocking layer and an antifog layer with antifog properties layered on one surface of the heat blocking layer, and that is layered on a surface on a vehicle interior side of the information acquisition region while the other surface of the heat blocking layer faces the surface on the vehicle interior side of the information acquisition region.

Abstract: The present invention provides a mold casting device including a raising and lowering mechanism that raises and lowers the upper mold; a die plate that is fixed to the upper mold; and a base member that is provided on upper end portions of the raising and lowering mechanism and supports the die plate from below.

Abstract: The present invention is a wind shield on which an information acquisition device configured to acquire information from the outside of a vehicle by emitting and/or receiving light can be arranged, the wind shield including a laminated glass, and an antifog film that is arranged on a surface on the vehicle interior side of the laminated glass and that contains a water absorbent polymer, in which the antifog film has a layer that does not contain an alkaline component on a surface of the antifog film.

Abstract: An antifog film according to an aspect of the present invention is an antifog film to be attached to a glass plate. The antifog film includes a substrate layer; an antifog layer with antifog properties layered on one surface of the substrate layer; and a sticky layer layered on the other surface of the substrate layer. A release sheet is attached to the sticky layer, and a protective film is attached to the antifog layer.

Abstract: Provided is a windshield 1 suitable for preventing fogging of a glass sheet facing a light path space and for maintaining high accuracy of information acquired by an information acquisition device. A water-absorbing film 81 or an anti-fogging member 8 including the water-absorbing film 81 is disposed on a surface in contact with a light path space 41, the surface being at least one selected from a surface of a glass sheet 5 and a surface of members 61 and 62 serving the function of fixing of an information acquisition device 2 and/or light shielding for the light path space. The water-absorbing film has a saturated water absorption Ws of 1 g/m2 or more. The water-absorbing film satisfies at least one condition selected from the condition A1 that a water vapor adsorption isotherm is a downwardly convex curve at a relative humidity of 20 to 90% and the condition B1 that an increase in water absorption AbH with increasing relative humidity from 70% to 95% is more than 35% of Ws.

Abstract: A transmission controller searches a mechanical High, which is a minimum value of a possible speed ratio of the continuously variable transmission (CVT), based on an actual speed ratio, sets a control High lower than the mechanical High by a predetermined amount, and controls a speed ratio of the CVT by setting a minimum value of a speed ratio range of the CVT at the control High.
