An in-vehicle navigation apparatus transmits a present position, a destination, and a version number of in-vehicle map data stored in an in-vehicle map storage portion to a map difference data distribution apparatus. The map difference data distribution apparatus calculates a route from the present position and destination received from the in-vehicle navigation apparatus, compares a version number of map data stored in a center map storage portion with the received version number of the in-vehicle map data to prepare map difference data of map elements contained in the route, and distributes the prepared map difference data to the in-vehicle navigation apparatus.

When a vehicle deviates from a guide route at a first branch point, the state of the first branch point is memorized. Afterward, when a second branch point becomes a target for a route guide and the state of the second branch point is similar to the memorized state, a user of the vehicle is provided with a guide for preventing deviation from the guide route at the second branch point with a manner of the guide changed. This procedure allows learning of tendency of the user with respect to a state apt to cause the user to mistake a guide route. A guide to help prevent a user from deviating from a guide route at a branch point can be thus performed appropriately.

In a portable radio device in which both an antenna for cell phone and an antenna for receiving GPS data are installed, an object of the present invention is to decrease influence of the antennas on one another with respect to deterioration of their radio performances. According to the present invention, in a portable radio device in which an operating part housing (11) and a display part housing (12) are connected by way of a hinge part (13) in a freely foldable manner to conduct both telephone conversation and reception of GPS data, an antenna (20) for the telephone conversation is provided at one side of the operating part housing (11) in a lateral direction, and at the same time, an antenna (21) for receiving the GPS data is mounted to a base board (22) in the display part housing (12) in its end area at an opposite side to the hinge part (13). With this arrangement, both the antennas (20), (21) can be spaced from each other, and deterioration of their radio performances can be restrained.

A folding seat apparatus for a vehicle comprising a slide mechanism for slidably moving a seat in a front-and-rear direction, and a pop-up mechanism for popping up a seat cushion. The slide mechanism and pop-up mechanism are connected to the control lever. The controller controls the actuator so that the control lever rotates in the forward or reverse direction. The pop-up mechanism is unlocked by rotating the control lever in a first direction, and the slide mechanism is unlocked by rotating the control lever in a second direction.

A pump apparatus comprises a piston, which is provided displaceably along a first chamber formed in a body under the action of a pilot pressure, an indirect medium composed of a non-compressive fluid and which is to be pressed by the piston, and a diaphragm that is flexibly bendable in cooperation with the indirect medium. When the fluid is discharged from a discharge port, a change in volume caused by the displacement of the piston in the axial direction is identical to the change in volume caused by the displacement of the diaphragm in the axial direction.

A flow rate control apparatus is constructed by integrally assembling a pulsation-attenuating mechanism for balancing a regulated pilot pressure from a pressure-regulating section and a primary pressure of a pressure fluid flowing through a fluid passage to attenuate pressure fluctuation caused by pulsation of the pressure fluid, and a flow rate control mechanism for controlling a flow amount of the pressure fluid flowing through the fluid passage by adjusting a valve lift amount of a valve plug with a linear actuator controlled based on a rotary driving control signal from a controller.

In a vehicular navigation system, an electronic control unit uses in its recommended vehicle travel path determination processing restricted-type roads the data of which is less reliable than those of normal roads. A display device indicates the recommended travel path on a road map displayed thereon. When a vehicle travels on the restricted-type road, a travel guidance specific to the restricted-type road is issued to notify a driver of traveling on the restricted-type road and thereby invite the driver to decide himself or herself. The guidance may be in a vocal announcement from a speaker and/or a visual display on the display device.

Several embodiments of supercharged V-type engines wherein at least one plenum chamber is provided that is disposed adjacent at least one of the banks of the cylinders. A supercharger is positioned at the transmission end of the engine and is interconnected with the plenum chamber through a relatively short conduit. In some embodiments, the supercharger is driven from the transmission and in other embodiments, the supercharger is driven from the opposite end of the engine. In one embodiment, there are a pair of plenum chambers, each disposed above a respective cylinder bank.
