Title: Drum type washing machine
Inventor: TERAI KENJI
IPC: D06F33/02
Filed: 2005-10-25
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To achieve a structure capable of reducing uneven washing by securing detergency while reducing the generation of detergent bubbles at reduced manufacturing cost, in a beat-washing drum type washing machine.  <P>SOLUTION: The drum type washing machine comprises a washing water circulation channel 28 to rotate inside an outer tub 6 according to the rotation of a rotary drum 5, a water intake 20 disposed in the outer tub 6, a spout 32 for spouting water into the rotary drum 5, and a bubble detecting means 53 composed of a pair of electrodes disposed inside the outer tub 5. In the drum type washing machine, a showering process for showering washing water into the rotary drum 5 through the circulation channel and a beat-washing process for beat-washing the laundry falling with the own weight by the rotation of the rotary drum 5 are alternately executed, but while the bubble detecting means detects bubbles, only the beat-washing process for rotating the rotary drum 5 at low speed is executed without execution of the showering process. Accordingly, filling of the inside of the rotary drum 5 or the outer tub 6 with bubbles can be prevented without impairing the detergency, and impairment of the detergency and penetration of bubbles into electric parts can be prevented.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

Title: Vehicle controller
Inventor: MURAMATSU TATSUYA
IPC: B60W30/16
Filed: 2005-10-31
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide driving support based on biological information acquired and based on accurate determination about its necessity.  <P>SOLUTION: Information about whether or not biological information such as heart rate has exceeded a predetermined threshold value (reference value) is used as a condition for determining whether or not driving operation support such as warning or vehicle control should be provided. The threshold value for the biological information is varied depending on whether or not there is a passenger. In this way it is made possible to provide driver support in an accurate manner. That is, since normal biological information varies depending on whether the driver is alone or with someone with whom the driver usually feels nervous, such as his boss, determinations based on the same threshold are not possible. When the level of tension of the driver is higher because of the passenger, the threshold value is set according to the level of tension to facilitate detection of the level of tension regarding driving operation.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
