A vehicle door which can be used as a tailgate is formed of an outer panel () on an outer side of a vehicle, an inner panel () on an inner side of the vehicle, and a module plate () to which door parts such as a wiper motor () are attached, and a lining (). The inner panel () is in a frame shape with only a marginal portion () of the whole periphery left and with an opening () formed therein. The module plate () serves as a reinforcing member and is composed of a first extending portion () extending in a right and left direction and a second extending portion () extending downward from the first extending portion () to be in a substantially T-shape. Connection of the module plate () to the outer panel () and the inner panel () reinforces the tailgate ().

Vehicle door and manufacture thereof

A vehicle door which can be used as a tailgate or a side door of a vehicle and a manufacturing method of this vehicle door is provided. A tailgate ( ) which is a vehicle door is formed of an outer panel ( ) on an outer side of a vehicle, an inner panel ( ) on an inner side of the vehicle, and a module plate ( ) to which door parts such as a wiper motor ( ) are attached, and a lining ( ). The inner panel ( ) is in a frame shape with only a marginal portion ( ) of the whole periphery left and with an opening ( ) formed therein, which results in reduction in the weight of the tailgate ( ). The module plate ( ) which also serves as a reinforcing member is composed of a first extending portion ( ) extending in a right and left direction and a second extending portion ( ) extending downward from the first extending portion ( ) to be in a substantially T-shape, which also results in reduction in the weight of the module plate ( ), and connection of the module plate ( ) to the outer panel ( ) and the inner panel ( ) reinforces the tailgate ( ).

Door for vehicle and its manufacturing method

A tailored blank article and a manufacturing method thereof, which is used for partitioning an inside and an outside such as a dashboard panel for partitioning an engine room of a car body and the inside of a car room. A thick plate blank and a thin plate blank are joined by a mash-seam welding or a laser welding, and are subjected to a pressing. Thereby, the thin plate blank is bent until an inner surface of the thin plate blank is made flush or almost flush with an inner surface of the thick plate blank, subsequently, a connection part having a portion connected over a welding portion is connected to at least one of an outer surface and the inner surface of the tailored blank article comprising the thick plate blank and the thin plate blank, and then an entire tailored article including the connection part is coated. The connection of the connection part to the tailored blank article, which is performed before the coating, is performed with a portion which corresponds to a welding portion of the connection part spaced from the welding portion, to thereby form a coating film securely onto the welding portion.

Still picture recording digital camera with output unit having delay

A digital recording/reproducing video camera apparatus which externally receives analog video and audio signals as a standard video signal for data compression and recording. Selection switches for switching between a camera pick-up mode and a line input mode are switched to their terminals a in the camera pick-up mode and switched to their terminals b in the line input mode. An output signal of a CCD is sent via an amplifier, the switch and an A/D converter to a digital signal processing circuit to generate color and luminance signals. The generated color and luminance signals are fed to a data compression/expansion circuit to remove redundant parts therefrom and then sent to a HDD for recording. In a line input record mode, a line input signal is supplied through the switch and A/D converter to the digital signal processing circuit to generate the color and luminance signals. The generated color and luminance signals are fed to the data compression/expansion circuit to remove redundant parts therefrom and sent to the HDD for recording. The video camera apparatus may include a video signal processing circuit for detecting a time base error in 1 sampling period or less of the synchronization signal caused by performing Y/C separating/demodulating operations on a digital signal and moves a center of a video part in response to its detection result.

Video camera apparatus of digital recording type

Signal reading and processing arrangement of still picture recording

Still picture recording digital camera which outputs a dynamic picture

The present invention relates to a video camera apparatus which can automatically correct an image vibration, such as a handling or the like electronically. A control circuit changes an interpolation coefficient .alpha. of an interpolation processing circuit in response to a detected output from a vibration detecting apparatus or an output from a motion vector calculating apparatus that detects a vibration of a video signal. Also, the control circuit controls a scanning pulse generating circuit that derives a scanning pulse for scanning the imager. The scanning pulse generating circuit changes a combination of two scanning lines that are to be interpolated by the interpolation processing circuit using the interpolation coefficient .alpha. by changing the scanning state of the imager when 0.ltoreq..alpha.&lt;X or (1-X)&lt;.alpha..ltoreq.1 and X.ltoreq..alpha..ltoreq.(1-X) if X is a limited value of the interpolation coefficient .alpha. and the limited value X is a value smaller than 1/2. Thus, a resolution of a reproduced picture based on the video signal thus obtained by the above interpolation processing can be prevented from being deteriorated.

A video imaging apparatus changes an area of an imaging element (CCD or MOS type) from which a signal is read out as a TV signal. A normal transfer speed is used to read out the signal from the area as the TV signal and a high transfer speed is used to read out a signal from other area so that smooth movement of an image can be attained. Further, when movement of a video camera occurs, the movement can be judged by observation through a view finder, that is, which partial area of the whole area of the imaging element is produced as the TV signal can be recognized.
