    Abstract: Provided is a vibration generator that even if a vibration is generated in the seat surface of a seat, allows a seated person to easily feel the vibration. A vibration generator (1) includes a vibration transmission member (10) and an exciter (20). The vibration transmission member (10) is disposed in a seat surface (2a) of a seat (2) so as to extend in the horizontal direction of the seat surface (2a) and is able to transmit a vibration in the extending direction. The exciter (20) is able to transmit a vibration to the vibration transmission member (10) in the extending direction of the vibration transmission member (10).

    Abstract: To make a notification to the driver so that the driver can distinguish or recognize the notification. A vehicle notification device (1a) inputs a first sweep signal whose frequency is changed in a predetermined frequency range, to a vibrator (4), calculates frequency characteristics of a vibration in the vehicle interior, detects a frequency range in which the signal level of vehicle-travel-time frequency characteristics is higher than the signal level of vehicle-stop-time frequency characteristics by a predetermined level amount or more, generates a second sweep signal whose frequency is changed in a range obtained by excluding the detected frequency range from the predetermined frequency range of the first sweep signal, and outputs the second sweep signal from the vibrator (4).

    Abstract: A vibration generator includes a vibration transmission member and an exciter. The vibration transmission member is disposed in a seat beneath a seat surface of the seat so as to extend longitudinally in a horizontal direction of the seat surface and is able to transmit a vibration in an extending direction of the vibration transmission member in which the vibration transmission member extends longitudinally. The exciter includes a voice coil, a permanent magnet disposed in the vicinity of the voice coil, a yoke supporting the permanent magnet. The exciter transmits the vibration to the vibration transmission member as the yoke and the voice coil approach or leave to each other. The yoke and the voice coil approach or leave in the same direction as the extending direction of the vibration transmission member.

    Abstract: 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).

    Abstract: To allow the driver to identify a notification vibration even in a situation in which the notification vibration may be masked depending on the road conditions. A vehicle notification device (1) randomly extract one of a plurality of pieces of signal data by the number of vibrators (exciters EX1 to EX4), each of the pieces of signal data being different in a combination of an initial frequency and a target frequency and generates a plurality of sweep signals by changing the frequency from the initial frequency to the target frequency of the extracted piece of signal data in cycles. A plurality of notification vibrations whose frequencies change in different frequency ranges are outputted by outputting the generated sweep signals, individually from the vibrators (exciters EX1 to EX4).
