Vehicle-mounted device
A vehicle-mounted device includes a housing that accommodates electronic equipment therein, an openable and closable cover covering an opening of the housing, a sealing member fixed to the housing or the cover, and a pressure sensor fixed to at least one of the cover, the housing, or the sealing member at a position such that the pressure sensor is in contact with the sealing member while the cover is closed. The pressure sensor measures a pressing force received at the sealing member sandwiched between the housing and the cover. The vehicle-mounted device further includes a degradation determination device to determine whether any degradation occurs in the sealing member on the basis of the pressing force measured at the pressure sensor while the cover is closed.

Protector with sensor and method of molding end part of the same
A protector with a sensor is installed on a sliding door for detecting an object by touch between two core wires in a hollow part. In a terminal part of the protector with the sensor, the core wires drawn out are connected with leads joined with a control unit. A primary seal is formed by means of injection molding for covering wire connection parts and another end side of an insert while also covering a skin of a wire harness which ties and coats the two leads. A secondary seal is formed by means of the injection molding for coating a part formed with the primary seal and for forming an external shape of a product.

GLASS RUN CHANNELS INCLUDING MOLDED SUNSHADE HOOKS AND VEHICLES INCLUDING THE SAME
A glass run channel includes a header and one or more inserts molded into the header. The header includes an upper header wall, an outer header wall extending from the upper header wall, and an inner header wall extending from the upper header wall opposite the outer header wall. The inserts include an upper insert wall provided within the upper header wall, an insert body extending from the upper insert wall and provided within the inner header wall, and a hook wall extending from the insert body. The header fully surrounds the inserts. A portion of the header surrounding the one or more inserts defines a hook for a sunshade.
