The present disclosure provides a wheelchair restraint mechanism that renders easy alignment between a striker and a latch. One mode of the present disclosure is a wheelchair restraint mechanism for restraining a wheelchair to a restraining member installed on a vehicle. The wheelchair restraint mechanism includes an engagement target portion and an engagement portion. The engagement target portion includes a striker having a rod shape extending in up-down directions. The engagement portion includes: a housing member to house the striker; a latch to limit separation of the striker from the housing member; and a guide member to guide the striker towards the housing member. The guide member includes a first guide surface and a second guide surface, which face each other in width directions of the wheelchair and have a distance therebetween decreasing towards the housing member.

Wheelchair restraint mechanism

The present disclosure provides a wheelchair restraint apparatus that renders easy adjustment of a restraining position of a wheelchair inside a vehicle. One aspect of the present disclosure is a wheelchair restraint apparatus configured to restrain a wheelchair inside a vehicle. The wheelchair restraint apparatus includes a main body having a seat belt, and a restrained mechanism to and from which the wheelchair is attachable and detachable; and a slide mechanism configured to cause the main body to slide with respect to the vehicle. The restraint mechanism is configured to restrain the wheelchair in a state where a part of the wheelchair is inserted to the restraint mechanism in a traveling direction of the wheelchair.

Wheelchair restraint apparatus

An autonomous driving vehicle that is a mobile unit according to this disclosure is a mobile unit configured to transport a user to a facility that provides services or commercial products and, at the same time, configured to perform an advertising activity for the services or the commercial products of the facility. The mobile unit includes a control unit configured to acquire data for providing a promotion in the mobile unit and is configured to provide a promotion in the mobile unit based on the acquired data. The promotion is related to the services and the commercial products at the facility.

Mobile unit, information processing method, and program

Provided is a mobile cabin set that allows flexible arrangement of layout in a cabin. One aspect of the present disclosure provides a mobile cabin set that includes a cabin body configuring a part of a moving body and including a ceiling surface, a floor surface, and two or more side surfaces that define an interior space; at least one rail arranged on at least one surface of the ceiling surface, or the two or more side surfaces of the cabin body, the at least one rail extending in a direction that intersects a vertical direction; and at least one attachment arranged in the interior space. The at least one rail includes an attachment/detachment mechanism to allow attachment/detachment of the at least one attachment at a given position of the at least one rail.

Mobile cabin set, mobile cabin, and attachment for cabin

Provided is a contents providing system capable of inducing excitement of a spectator in a battle game. One embodiment of the present disclosure is a contents providing system including: an acquisition part acquiring, as player information, at least one of a posture, an amount of activity, and biological information from each of multiple players playing a battle game where multiple events occur simultaneously in one game space; and a processing part processing the player information acquired by the acquisition part into information-for-spectator to be provided for the spectator or an organizer of the battle game.

Contents providing system, contents providing method, and contents providing program

A seat including: a seat surface portion having first and second support surfaces; and a switching mechanism, wherein the seat surface portion is switched by the switching mechanism between: a first posture in which the seat surface portion is brought down to the front side such that the first support surface is in a low position where a seated person is capable of sitting thereon by lowering a hip, and a second posture in which the seat surface portion is brought up to the rear side from the first posture such that the second support surface is in a high position where the seated person in a standing posture is capable of sitting thereon, and wherein a vibration device which is configured to apply vibration corresponding to music to a body of the seated person is disposed at an inner side of the second support surface.

Seat

A seat surface part is switchable by a switching mechanism between a forward-unfolded posture in which the seat surface part is forwardly unfolded down so that a first support surface comes into a state at a low position where the seated person lowers his or her body to sit, and a second support surface comes into a state of forming a backwardly inclined surface that is inclined backwardly downward, and a folded-up posture in which the seat surface part is folded up backward from the forward-unfolded posture so that the second support surface is lifted up at a higher position than a position of the first support surface in the forward-unfolded posture, and an upper surface inclined forwardly downward is formed by the backwardly inclined surface so that the second support surface comes into a state at a high position where the seated person perches in a standing posture.

Reconfigurable seat

A seat cover of a vehicle seat configured to cover an outer surface of a seat pad, wherein a part of the seat cover which is configured to cover at least a seating surface of the seat pad consists of a seating surface piece made of a piece of cloth, and wherein, when covering the outer surface of the seat pad, the seat cover is bonded only to the seating surface.

Seat cover and vehicle seat

A vehicular seat has a pad including a foamed elastic material and a skin member covering a surface of the pad. A groove is formed at the surface of the pad, and the groove is inclined to a line orthogonal to the surface of the pad.

Vehicular seats

A seat back for a vehicular seat has a plate member for supporting a back of a pad and an elastic support mechanism for elastically holding the plate member for moving the plate member in a forward and backward direction with respect to a seat back frame. The plate member includes a first plate portion, a second plate portion positioned on the lower side of the first plate portion, and a third plate portion positioned on the lower side of the second plate portion. The first and third plate portions are more narrow than the second plate portion. The elastic support mechanism includes a rod-shaped elastic bridge member extending horizontally over the seat back frame on the back of the second plate portion. In addition, the elastic bridge member includes a bent portion at the center position as bent along the second plate portion toward the first plate portion.

Seat backs for vehicular seats

A seat back for a vehicular seat has a plate member for supporting a back of a pad and an elastic support mechanism for holding the plate member for moving the plate member in a forward and backward direction. The plate member includes a thoracic vertebra avoiding portion having at least one of a hole and a recessed portion recessed in a direction away from the thoracic vertebrae of a user, so as to avoid a pushing force to the thoracic vertebrae. In addition the thoracic vertebra avoiding portion is vertically elongated at a substantially widthwise center position of the plate member and has a width of 40 to 100 mm.
