ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY CONTROL DEVICE TO ELECTRIC ELEMENT MOUNTED AT ROOF PANEL

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electric power supply control device to an electric element mounted at a roof panel which can stop certainly power supply to an electric element in a case that a roof panel is set at an opening situation.SOLUTION: In an electric power supply control device 58 which controls electric power supply to an electric element 26 mounted at a roof panel that opens and closes by sliding an opening formed at a vehicular roof, provided are a drive part 60 which supplies drive power to the electric element 26 through a power line including an electric contact point 79 that is connected at least when the roof panel is at a closing position, a detection part 62 which detects a specified electric characteristic value that varies in accordance with an electric connection situation between the electric element 26 and the drive part 60, and a control part 65 which controls supply of the drive power by the drive part 60 on the basis of the electric characteristic value detected by the detection part 62. 【課題】ルーフパネルが開放状態となった場合に、電気的素子への給電を確実に停止することが可能な、ルーフパネルに設けられた電気的素子への給電制御装置を提供すること。【解決手段】車両のルーフに形成された開口を摺動することで開閉するルーフパネルに設けられた電気的素子２６への給電を制御する給電制御装置５８であって、少なくとも前記ルーフパネルが閉位置にあるときに接続する電気的接点７９を有する電力線を介して前記電気的素子２６に駆動電力を供給する駆動部６０と、前記電気的素子２６と前記駆動部６０との電気的接続状態に応じて変化する所定の電気的特性値を検出する検出部６２と、前記検出部６２が検出した電気的特性値に基づいて、前記駆動部６０による前記駆動電力の供給を制御する制御部６５と、を備える。【選択図】図９
