The airbag module includes: the display device vertically slidably mounted to a cockpit of the vehicle; and an airbag housing arranged at rear of the display device, rotatably mounted to the cockpit on a shaft extended in a direction parallel to a transverse direction of the vehicle, and configured to be rotated in response to sliding of the display device.

A sound generating apparatus for vehicles may include a sound generating device to be covered by a vehicle interior material of a vehicle. The sound generating device may be configured to vibrate the vehicle interior material. A vehicle including the sound generating apparatus for vehicles may include a vehicle interior material, covering a vehicle structure, and at least one sound generating apparatus disposed at the vehicle interior material. The vehicle interior material may vibrate according to a vibration of the sound generating apparatus to output a sound.

A vibration output apparatus (1) includes a vibration transmission member (20), an acoustic vibration output unit (10), and a cushion (30). The vibration transmission member (20) is formed by integrating a body plate (21) and a support portion (22). The support portion (22) is in contact with a vibration plate (100) and supports the body plate (21). The body plate (21) has an opposite surface (21a) opposite to a vibration surface (100u) of the vibration plate (100) and forms an opposite space (S1) between the vibration surface (100u) and the opposite surface (21a). The acoustic vibration output unit (10) is disposed on a rear surface (21b) of the opposite surface (21a) of the body plate (21) and is configured to output an acoustic vibration. The support portion (22, 23) is not in contact with the cushion (30).

A motor vehicle inner trim panel having a molded core and: a base which is overmolded by the core in an attachment zone, the base being provided with forked ties which project from the core; a ring which is provided with receiving means interlocking with the forked ties, the ring further being provided with two electric connectors, the central opening of the ring being provided with a thread; a transducer which is provided with a generally cylindrical attachment portion (12) which is threaded and screwed into the opening, the free end of the attachment portion abutting in the zone so as to ensure gripping contact between the forked ties and the receiving means, the transducer further being provided with two reciprocal electric connectors on which each of the connectors abut, respectively.

Exposure to sunlight is minimized.

A vibration generation device 1 includes a vibration generator that generates a vibration, and a vibration transmission member 4 that has a vehicle-side fixed part 30 to be fixed to a vehicle 50 and transmits to the vehicle 50 the vibration generated by the vibration generator, wherein the vehicle-side fixed part 30 is provided within a range R of the vibration generator, as viewed from the vibration direction of the vibration generator.

An electronic mirror system includes, a camera which can be attached to a side of an automobile and which is able to image a moving image diagonally behind the automobile; and a monitor apparatus which can be attached in the passenger compartment of the automobile and which can display the moving image imaged by the camera. The monitor apparatus includes a movable portion which can move the display which displays the moving image with relation to a wall to where the monitor apparatus is attached in the passenger compartment.

A notification method for notifying an object of information using a notification device or a light source device provided in a vehicle includes recognizing a plurality of objects based on a result of detection performed by an external sensor, giving a priority for the recognized objects, selecting a notification target from the recognized objects based on the given priority, associating the notification target with a region of the notification device, and performing notification for the notification target using the associated region of the notification device.
