A moving body includes: a detection unit configured to detect a peripheral situation of the moving body; a heating unit configured to be capable of heating a component of the moving body that is positioned in a detection range of the detection unit; a power receiving unit configured to receive power from an external power supply apparatus of the moving body; and a control unit configured to, when the power receiving unit receives power from the power supply apparatus, control the heating unit so as to be in an operation state.

An air blowing device has a first blowing portion, a duct, and an airflow causing member. The first blowing portion has a guide surface and is provided with a first blowing outlet that blows air from a blower unit into a vehicle compartment. The airflow causing member defines at least one of a first passage and a second passage located on one side and an other side of the airflow causing member in a front-rear direction of a vehicle respectively in the duct. The airflow causing member sets a first condition in which a high-velocity airflow flows in the first passage and a low-velocity airflow flows in the second passage by decreasing a sectional area of the first passage to be smaller than a sectional area of the second passage. The high-velocity airflow flows along the guide surface and is blown into the vehicle compartment.

A heating and air conditioning system for a motor vehicle including a housing having an air outlet, a heating heat exchanger disposed inside the housing with a warm air path to heat air flowing therethrough, a warm air duct having a warm air intake opening and a warm air duct discharge opening disposed downstream of the heating heat exchanger channeling a partial flow of warm air from the warm air path to the air outlet, and a mode control damper rotatable about a rotational axis and connected downstream of the warm air duct in terms of flow, wherein the air outlet may be selectively opened completely or partially, and in a closed state may be partially or completely closed. The mode control damper functions simultaneously as the control damper for controlling the volume of air exiting the warm air duct discharge opening.

To provide a vehicle window glass which is not susceptible to cracks, and a method for manufacturing the vehicle window glass. A vehicle window glass 1 of the present invention is provided with: a glass plate 11; a color ceramic layer 12, which is formed on the surface of the glass plate 11, and has a thickness more than 10 m but equal to or less than 25 m; and an electrically conductive layer 13, which is formed on the surface of the color ceramic layer 12, and has silver as a main component. The electrically conductive layer 13 and a terminal electrically connected to the electrically conductive layer 13 are connected to each other using a lead-free solder 14. In the vehicle window glass 1 of the present invention, since the thickness of the color ceramic layer 12 is more than 10 m, the glass plate 1 is not susceptible to cracks.
