In a power window apparatus, which controls a lifting mechanism to drive a window glass from an opening position toward a closing position, a control unit is capable of executing: an automatic closing process that controls the lifting mechanism such that the lifting mechanism keeps driving the window glass until the window glass reaches the closing position; and a normal closing process that controls the lifting mechanism such that the lifting mechanism drives the window glass toward the closing position only throughout a time period of receiving a user operational input through an operation switch. The control unit executes only the normal closing process between the automatic closing process and the normal closing process when the operation switch receives the user operational input while the window glass is located within a predetermined section in a movable range of the window glass.

A power window control device is configured to control a motor to open and close a window glass of a vehicle door and perform entrapment prevention control that determines entrapment of foreign material by the window glass and reverses the window glass if determining that foreign material entrapment has occurred. If determined in the entrapment prevention control that the entrapment has occurred while the window glass is closing to fully close, the entrapment prevention control determines whether the determination is caused by an impact generated when closing the vehicle door. If determined that the entrapment has occurred due to an impact generated when closing the vehicle door, the entrapment prevention control determines that the determination of the entrapment is an erroneous determination and switches to a control for fully closing the window glass that has been reversed and opened.

In a door trim assembly for a vehicle door having an opening fitted with a vertically moveable window pane and a drive unit for driving the window pane for selectively closing the opening, the door trim assembly includes: a door trim main body configured to be attached to an inboard side part of the vehicle door under the opening; at least one transmitter provided in an upper part of the door trim main body; at least one receiver provided in an upper part of the door trim main body and configured to receive a signal emitted from the transmitter and reflected by an object positioned near the window pane; and a control unit connected to the receiver to compute a position of the object according to the signal received by the receiver and control the drive unit according to the computed position of the object.

The present disclosure illustrates an escape system for a sunken car and an ultrasonic component. The ultrasonic component has a case and an ultrasonic module, and the escape system for a sunken car has at least the ultrasonic component and a main board. The escape system for the sunken car and the ultrasonic component in present disclosure utilize the property of the ultrasonic to recognize the type and thickness of the obstacle which is accumulated in the ultrasonic component, and to determine whether the warning message for sweeping the obstacle should be sent, so as to maintain the sensitivity of the ultrasonic component and further to prevent the ultrasonic component from mistakenly judging the car is sunk.
