Steering assistance device for vehicle

A steering assist apparatus for a vehicle includes an electric motor for steering assist. Rotation output of the electric motor is reduced in speed by a ball-screw mechanism and converted to rectilinear motion, which is transmitted to a rack bar. An electronic control unit determines a target current value in accordance with a steering torque detected by a steering torque sensor and a vehicle speed detected by a vehicle speed sensor. While using an actual current value of the electric motor detected by a current sensor as a feedback, the electronic control unit controls the current flowing through the electric motor to be equal to the target current value. The electronic control unit changes the feedback gain of the feedback control in accordance with a steering angle detected by a steering angle sensor, to thereby suppress abnormal noise generated at a steering mechanism, without deteriorating steering feel.

Silent Surface Fastener

The present invention relates to a silent surface fastener, wherein the surface fastener is provided with noise suppressing means and auxiliary engaging and disengaging means, so that even if joining strength necessary for a surface fastener (1) cannot be obtained due to adoption of the noise suppressing means, not only the joining strength necessary for the surface fastener (1) is compensated by the auxiliary engaging and disengaging means, but also only a peeling noise suppressed by the noise suppressing means is generated at the time of peeling of the surface fastener because the auxiliary engaging and disengaging means generates no noise when the engagement of the surface fastener is released, and consequently, only a quiet sound of 80 dB at a maximum is generated.

Fluid pressure booster

In a fluid pressure booster, when an input shaft and a valve plunger advance, an atmosphere valve opens to introduce air into a variable pressure chamber. At this time, the input shaft has not moved by a predetermined stroke, and thus a projection of the valve plunger is positioned within an inner peripheral surface of a control valve body, thus forming an orifice, which causes air to be sucked at a restricted flow rate. As a result, generation of noise is suppressed. When the input shaft moves the predetermined stroke, the projection of the valve plunger is positioned away from the inner peripheral surface of the control valve body and the orifice is no longer formed. Accordingly, the flow rate of the air is not restricted by the orifice, and thus a relatively large amount of air is sucked into and introduced into the pressure variation chamber.

Device temperature regulator

An evaporator includes a fluid chamber in which a working fluid flows. A condenser includes a gas-phase portion in which the working fluid evaporated in the evaporator flows and a liquid-phase portion in which the working fluid from the gas-phase portion, condensed by heat exchange with an external medium, flows. A gas-phase passage causes the working fluid evaporated in the evaporator to flow to the condenser. A liquid-phase passage causes the working fluid condensed in the condenser to flow to the evaporator. A bypass passage has one end connected to the liquid-phase portion of the condenser or the liquid-phase passage and another end connected to the gas-phase portion of the condenser or the gas-phase passage. A flow rate of a liquid-phase working fluid per unit volume in the bypass passage is smaller than a flow rate of a liquid-phase working fluid per unit volume in the liquid-phase portion of the condenser or the liquid-phase passage.
