    Abstract: A tire information detection device that detects tire information including at least one of wear, deformation, road surface state, ground contact state, presence/absence of failure, travel history, load state, or frictional coefficient, includes at least one detection unit disposed on a tire inner surface, a power supply unit to supply power to the detection unit, a position information detection unit to detect position information of the tire or a vehicle, an additional information acquisition unit to acquire additional information associated with the position information, a determination unit to determine whether a current position specified based on the position information is included in an area that satisfies a determination condition extracted from the additional information, and a control unit to control measurement of the detection unit based on a determination result from the determination unit.

    Abstract: A transducer includes a flexible substrate, a piezoelectric element formed on a surface of the flexible substrate, and a support member, in which holes are formed, having a higher rigidity than the flexible substrate. The surface of the flexible substrate has an element region in which the piezoelectric element is continuous in a planar direction of the piezoelectric element. The support member is stacked to the flexible substrate in a manner such that the holes face the element region. The flexible substrate is freely movable in each of the holes, and a region of the flexible substrate corresponding to a region other than the holes of the support member is fixed to the support member.

    Abstract: A door handle includes a door handle case and an electrostatic sensor provided in the door handle case. The electrostatic sensor includes a detection electrode that is formed of a flat conductor plate, or that is formed on a surface of a flat substrate or within a flat substrate. The detection electrode includes a middle portion in a longitudinal direction of the detection electrode and includes peripheral portions proximal to both end portions of the detection electrode in the longitudinal direction. For a width of the detection electrode in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, each peripheral portion is wider than the middle portion, and the width of the detection electrode gradually increases toward each end portion in the longitudinal direction.

    Abstract: A tire position identification device is provided as a device that can identify the positions of wheels to which tires are attached by using information about other than air pressure. The tire position identification device has: deformation detection units, each of which can detect deformation of the relevant tire; a turn detection unit that can detect whether a vehicle having the tires and wheels has made a turn and can also detect the direction of the turn; a speed detection unit that can detect the speed of the vehicle, and a control unit that infers the positions of the wheels to which the tires are attached according to the deformation of the tires, the direction of the turn of the vehicle, and its speed.

    Abstract: A tire deterioration inferring (estimating) method uses a tire deterioration inferring device placed on the inner surface of a tire. The method has: a deformation velocity measurement step of measuring a tire deformation velocity, which is the deformation velocity of the tire while the tire is rotating, and obtaining time-series changes in the tire deformation velocity; a calculation step of calculating peak values of the tire deformation velocity from the time-series changes in the tire deformation velocity; and an inference step of inferring the degree of the deterioration of the tire by using a first peak value, which is a peak value of the tire deformation velocity before and at the stepping of the tire or at and after the kicking of the tire, the first peak value being in the time-series changes in the tire deformation velocity.
