Abstract: A fluid discharge device is for discharging a fluid includes a duct defining a fluid flow passage and having an opening at a downstream end of the fluid flow passage. The fluid discharge device includes a grill portion disposed in the fluid flow passage to adjust a flow direction of the fluid blown from the opening. The grill portion includes at least an adjustment fin rotatably arranged in the fluid flow passage, and is provided with an auxiliary flow passage that guides a part of the fluid flowing through the fluid flow passage to the opening as an auxiliary flow. The auxiliary flow passage is configured together with the adjustment fin to adjust a flow direction of the auxiliary flow discharged from the auxiliary flow passage to be aligned with the flow direction of the fluid flowing through the fluid flow passage.

Abstract: A vehicle air-conditioning control system includes a controller that controls a blow outlet drive device and a plate member drive device based on a sensed result of a seat back state sensing device. When a reclined state of the seat back is sensed, the controller controls the blow outlet drive device and thereby places an air-flow direction change mechanism in a predetermined position to direct conditioning air, which is blown from the blow outlet, such that the conditioning air collides to a plate surface of a plate member. At this time, the controller also controls the plate member drive device to place the plate member in a predetermined position, so that the conditioning air, which collides to the plate surface of the plate member, reaches a specific part of an occupant who is on the seat having the seat back placed in the reclined state.

Abstract: A point management system using a vehicle as a contact point includes: an evaluation device that evaluates a specific activity of an user of the vehicle based on vehicle information according to a travel state of the vehicle or activity information recorded in a smart device of the user; a point giving device that gives the point to the user according to an evaluation by the evaluation device; and a propose device that proposes, to the user, an activity for which the point is given. The specific activity includes at least one of three categories of an eco-driving activity, a health care activity, and a social contribution activity.

Abstract: An air discharge device is configured to discharge an air flow. The air discharge device includes a main hole for discharging an air flow as a working air flow, an auxiliary hole provided around the main hole to discharge a support air flow, and a vortex suppression structure configured to suppress development of vortices generated in a velocity boundary layer of the working air flow at a downstream side of an outlet of the main hole. This vortex suppression structure is configured to make a central portion of the thickness of the velocity boundary layer of the working air flow at the downstream side of the outlet of the main hole to be closer to a mainstream of the support air flow, at the downstream side of the outlet of the main hole.

Abstract: An air conditioning control system includes: an air conditioner configured to send a conditioned air that is lower in temperature than air inside a cabin; a detector configured to detect a state of a seat back of a seat; and a controller that lowers temperature of the conditioned air blown out from an air outlet when the detector detects that the state of the seat back being switched from an upright state to a reclined state. The controller increases a volume of the conditioned air blown out from the air outlet when the temperature of the conditioned air blown out from the air outlet is lowered.

Abstract: An air discharge device includes an air discharge unit for discharging an air flow. The air discharge unit includes at least one main hole from which an air flow is blown out as a working air flow, and a separation structure configured to separate a central portion of a thickness of a velocity boundary layer of the working air flow from a center line of the main hole at a downstream side of the main hole.

Abstract: An air discharge device includes a duct that defines a flow passage through which a working air flow to be discharged passes, and a hole forming member defining an air discharge hole as an outlet of the working air flow. The hole forming member has a vortex generation structure configured to generate an auxiliary vortex having a vortex characteristic including a vortex rotation direction and a vortex axis direction. The vortex characteristic of the auxiliary vortex is different from that of a lateral vortex generated by the working air flow at a downstream side of the air discharge hole. The vortex generation structure is configured in the hole forming member so that the auxiliary vortex collides with the lateral vortex in a state where at least one of the vortex rotation direction and the vortex axial direction of the vortex characteristic is different from that of the lateral vortex.
