In an aspect, two separate thrust surfaces provide an axial force in the same direction, opposing an axial bias force created by interaction of a stator and a magnet, and minimizing power consumption.

In order to provide a lumbar support which conforms to the curve of the spinal column so as not to give a feeling of incompatibility or other unpleasant feeling, and is easily adjusted to meet a user's preference, a lumbar support 10 of the present invention is structured such that a bulging member 30 provided with two housing parts 31 and 32 to house a cushioning material for adjustment 34 is fixed on the back surface of a flexible plate 20, which is incorporated so that the front surface of the flexible plate 20 is positioned to the front surface side of a back cushion 120. Accordingly, the curvature of the two housing parts 31 and 32 does not affect a feeling of contact with the waist as it is, but works as a feeling of contact with larger curvature owing to the flexible plate 20, which results in suppression of pressure on the nervous system between the third and fourth lumbar vertebrae. Furthermore, by setting the width of a border region 33 between the two housing parts 31 and 32 in an appropriate range, it is possible to suppress a feeling of pressure on such a nervous system, and at the same time, to suppress any feeling of incompatibility or other unpleasant feeling caused by too large a curvature.

A lower limit of a target value of a wheel cylinder pressure generated by a wheel cylinder is set as a first value PT1. Specifically, the first value PT1 is determined based on the application pressure generated by the wheel cylinder during an automatic brake control. Accordingly, the actual application pressure generated can be set to be equal to or more than the first value PT1. Thus, it is possible to prevent the application pressure from being decreased unintentionally when the automatic brake control is switched to a manual brake control, and thus, it is possible to maintain a deceleration speed of a vehicle at the level of a vehicle body deceleration generated during the automatic brake control. Accordingly, it is less likely that the driver will be caused to feel a sense of unease by weakening of the braking force.

In (alpha,beta) coordinates defined by a back angle alpha and a knee angle beta, a pattern that connects between a coordinate point (0, 0) at which each of a back bottom and a knee bottom is horizontal and a coordinate point (alpha0,beta0) which is a final reaching point for a back lift-up operation and at which the back bottom is lifted up by a plurality of points is set, an optimal pattern which provides less slipperiness and less oppressive feeling is acquired beforehand, and a control section moves the back bottom and the knee bottom along the optimal pattern. This reliably prevents a carereceiver from slipping, regardless of subjective judgment by an operator or a carer, at the time of performing a back lift-up operation and back lift-down operation of an electric bed. It is therefore possible to prevent pressure from being applied onto the abdominal region and chest region of the carereceiver, thus relieving the carereceiver and carer of the burden.
