Two embodiments of compact high performance induction systems for V type engines that include pairs of plenum chambers that extend over the respective cylinder banks. First pairs of runners extend from an inlet opening in each plenum chamber to an outlet opening that communicates with the cylinder of the opposite bank. Second pairs of intake passages are provided which extend from inlet openings in the respective plenum chambers to outlet openings in the cylinders of the adjacent cylinder head. The first intake passages have portions that extend through the other plenum chambers and the second intake passages communicate with the cylinders through these intermediate portions. The intermediate portions are curved and in one embodiment the second intake passages are tangential to these curved portions and in the other embodiment they are radial to it.

In a liquid crystal display device in which one pixel is divided into a plurality of sub-pixels, power consumption is reduced. A liquid crystal display device in which a pixel formation portion forming one pixel includes a first sub-pixel portion and a second sub-pixel portion is provided with a charge sharing circuit (50) for short-circuiting a CS bus line (CSL1) provided for the first sub-pixel portion and a CS bus line (CSL2) provided for the second sub-pixel portion to each other based on a short-circuit control signal (CTL). A CS voltage generating circuit (40) generates CS signals (CS1 and CS2) whose potentials change every predetermined period. The charge sharing circuit (50) short-circuits the CS bus line (CSL1) and the CS bus line (CSL2) to each other at timing at which the potentials of the CS signals (CS1 and CS2) change, based on the short-circuit control signal (CTL).

A solenoid pump is equipped with a housing formed therein with a fluid passage through which a fluid flows from an inlet port to an outlet port, and a movable member, which is displaced based on an excitation state of a solenoid section, for thereby opening and closing the fluid passage. The fluid passage includes an inlet side passage that communicates with the inlet port, an outlet side passage that communicates with the outlet port, and a pump chamber made up of a space in communication with the inlet side passage and the outlet side passage, and surrounded by the housing and an end portion of the movable member. Accompanying displacement thereof, the movable member opens and closes communication between the pump chamber and the outlet side passage.

A movable terminal stores previously a travel time schedule in a regular travel state of a public transportation. The movable terminal executes a route retrieval from candidates containing route sections traveled by using the public transportation and route sections traveled by using different transportation (i.e., foot, vehicle) other than the public transportation. As a result of the route retrieval, when it is determined that the route using the public transportation is more suitable, a request for a multi-modal retrieval based on actual present travel state of the public transportation is transmitted to a center. A center route received thereafter from the center is recorded as a guidance route used for executing route guidance.

A front fallboard, a rear fallboard and a hinge connected between them form in combination a fallboard assembly connected between side arms of a piano cabinet by means of a pair of rotary connectors, and each of the rotary connectors includes a front metal plate connected to the side surface of the front fallboard, a rear metal plate connected to the bottom surface of the side art defining a recess and a rotary damper; since the recess is wider than the rear metal plate already combined with the rotary damper, the rear metal plate is movable on a virtual plane defined by a fore-and-aft direction and an up-and-down direction; while a worker is seeking the optimum positions of the rotary connectors, self-tapping screws keep the rear metal plates in the recesses so that the worker drives woodscrews into the side arms through main holes or auxiliary holes.

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 navigation system, having a route calculation unit for providing a navigation route from a start point to a destination based on an evaluation of a plurality of cost parameters by an evaluation function, includes a storage unit for storing a weighting factor determination relation for determining a weighting factor of the cost parameter based on a travel situation of predetermined type identified in a specific length of time and a weighting factor determination unit for determining the weighting factor based on the weighting factor determination relation and the travel situation derived from an actual state of traveling.

A keyboard music instrument includes a keyboard, key action mechanisms functionally connected to keys of the keyboard, strings assigned notes of a scale and hammer assemblies for striking the strings. The hammer assemblies have respective hammer heads formed of metallic powder containing synthetic resin so as to exactly regulate the weight to target values.
