A heater device includes a heat generating portion formed so as to be adjacent to one surface of an insulating substrate and configured to generate heat, and a heat equalizing portion arranged between adjacent heat generating portions and configured to diffuse the heat of the heat generating portion. The heat generating portion has a linear shape, and at least one of a distance between one of the adjacent heat generating portions and the heat equalizing portion and a distance between the other of the adjacent heat generating portions and the heat equalizing portion is equal to or less than a line width of the heat generating portion. In the heat equalizing portion, a distance between one end of one of the adjacent heat generating portions and the other end of the other of the adjacent heat generating portions is longer than the line width of the heat generating portion.

Heater device

A vehicular apparatus is configured to authenticate a user of a vehicle. In response to authenticating the user, a user management table, which manages an association between the user and a permitted or prohibited operation of the user for each vehicle scene, is referred to, and the permitted or prohibited operation of the user authenticated is specified to provide a specified result. An application corresponding to the permitted or prohibited operation of the user is notified of the specified result to manage the operation of the user.

Vehicular apparatus, vehicular system, and user authentication management program product

The heater device has a sheet shaped main body having a heat generating portion heated by energization and a radiating surface for radiating radiant heat toward a heating object by using heat in the heat generating portion, a plate shaped member arranged on an opposite side with respect to the radiating surface of the main body, and an air layer forming member for forming an air layer between the main body and the plate shaped member arranged on a side opposite to the radiating surface of the main body.

A blower has a centrifugal multi-blade fan that has blades around a rotation axis and a casing that houses the centrifugal multi-blade fan. The centrifugal multi-blade fan satisfies a relation of d/h&#x2265;5, in which dis a diameter of a part having the blades, and his a height of the blades in an axial direction of the rotation axis. A part of the casing on one side in an axial direction of the centrifugal multi-blade fan has an air suction port. A part of the casing on the radial outer side of the centrifugal multi-blade fan has an air passage through which air blown from the centrifugal multi-blade fan flows. The casing has an enlargement portion that enlarges the air passage on at least one of the one side and an other side in the axial direction as the casing extends toward the radial outer side.

Blower

A seat air-conditioning device is provided with an air blowout portion which is open so as to blow out air toward a seated occupant seated on a vehicle seat, the air being blown from a ventilator. A control device of the seat air-conditioning device causes a blowing direction changing device to change a blowing direction of the air blown our from the air blowout portion based on passenger information including a build and a sitting position of a passenger which is the seated occupant. Accordingly, air can be blown in a direction according to the build or the sitting position of the seated occupant.

Vehicle seat air-conditioning device

A connection duct has (i) a duct body that is made of a material having great flexibility, the duct body in which the conditioned air flows and (ii) core members that are made of a material having higher rigidity than the duct body and are arranged, in the duct body, along a flow direction of air, the core members that maintain a cross-sectional shape of the duct body at a specified cross-sectional shape. The core members respectively have (i) an outer plate that is located on an outer peripheral side in the curved portion, (ii) an inner plate that is located on an inner peripheral side in the curved portion, and (iii) a connection plate that connects the outer plate with the inner plate. A length of the outer plate in the flow direction is longer than a length of the inner plate in the flow direction.

A seat air conditioning device that blows out air from a seat, supplied from an interior air conditioning unit that air-conditions a space in a passenger compartment for a vehicle, includes: a floor-side duct and a seat-side duct. The floor-side duct is disposed adjacent to a floor of a vehicle body member forming the space in the passenger compartment and is connected to the interior air conditioning unit. The air supplied from the interior air conditioning unit flows through the floor-side duct. The seat-side duct is disposed adjacent to the seat and communicates with the floor-side duct through a connecting duct. The connecting duct is configured to be deformed to follow displacement of the seat, and is arranged along a vehicle harness that connects a floor-side wiring member disposed adjacent to the floor and a seat-side wiring member disposed adjacent to the seat.
