摘要:
A non-contact power supply system supplies electric power in a non-contact manner from a power transmission device to a vehicle. The power transmission device includes an impedance adjusting unit configured to adjust an impedance between a power supply unit and a power transmission unit. A vehicle ECU assists an alignment between the power transmission unit and the power receiving unit in the parking operation based on a power transmission efficiency between the power transmission unit and the power receiving unit. A power transmission ECU, at the time of the alignment in the parking operation, controls the impedance adjusting unit based on a distance between the power transmission unit and the power receiving unit in a vertical direction (vehicle height). Accordingly, lowering of the power transmission efficiency caused by a change in an impedance along with a change in the vehicle height can be suppressed.

A contactless power supply system contactlessly transmits electric power from a power transmitting device to a vehicle. The vehicle includes: a power receiving unit that contactlessly receives electric power from the power transmitting device; an electrical storage device that stores electric power received by the power receiving unit; and an impedance adjustment unit that includes a DC/DC converter and a relay and that is used to adjust an impedance between the power receiving unit and the electrical storage device. A vehicle ECU switches between a power supply path of which the impedance is adjusted by the DC/DC converter and a power supply path that does not use the DC/DC converter on the basis of a state of charge of the electrical storage device.

In a non-contact electric power feed system, electric power is supplied in a non-contact manner from an electric power transmission device to a vehicle representing an electric power reception device. The electric power transmission device includes an electric power transmission unit, a communication unit for radio communication with the electric power reception device, and a control device for controlling the electric power transmission unit. The control device varies transmitted electric power from the electric power transmission unit while the electric power transmission unit transmits electric power, and determines whether or not pairing between the vehicle specified as an electric power transmission target and the electric power transmission unit is appropriate, based on information on variation in electric power from the vehicle specified as the electric power transmission target through radio communication.

摘要:
A vehicle is able to contactlessly receive electric power from a power transmitting device and to charge a mounted electrical storage device (electric load). The vehicle includes a communication unit that carries out wireless communication with the power transmitting device and a vehicle ECU (control unit) that controls the communication unit. The communication unit is able to switch a communication range between a wide communication range (wire-area communication) and a narrow communication range (narrow-area communication). The vehicle ECU, at the time of identifying a power transmitting device from which electric power should be received, controls the communication unit such that the communication unit communicates with the power transmitting device using the narrow-area communication.

When a vehicle is stationary on a slope, the vehicle is allowed to remain stably stationary without consuming much energy by controlling the attitude of a vehicle body by moving an active weight portion with no torque applied to a drive wheel by actuating a braking device to stop rotation of the drive wheel. To this end, a vehicle includes: a drive wheel rotatably attached to a vehicle body; an active weight portion attached so as to be movable relative to the vehicle body; and a vehicle control device that controls an attitude of the vehicle body by controlling at least one of a drive torque applied to the drive wheel and a position of the active weight portion. The vehicle control device controls the attitude of the vehicle body by controlling only the position of the active weight portion when the vehicle is stationary on a slope.

摘要:
A communication navigation system, wherein a navigation apparatus requests a recommended route guidance data to a information center and guides a user of the navigation apparatus to a destination by using the recommended route guidance data received from the information center. In this present invention, the navigation apparatus transmits version data of road data held in the navigation apparatus at the request to the information center. The information center prepares a guidance data of recommended route using latest road data held in the information center, and transmits the data to the navigation apparatus. When the information center transmits the guidance data, the information center selects the type of data of the road links along the recommended route, in the guidance data, by comparing the version data received from the navigation apparatus and the version data of each road link along the recommended route. If each data of road links along the recommended route is considered to be contained in the road data held in the navigation apparatus, the information center transmits the only data which enable to specify the road link from the road data held in the navigation apparatus. On the hand, if each data of road links is considered not to be contained in the road data held in the navigation apparatus, the information center transmits whole data of the road link. Therefore, the navigation apparatus can generate the route guidance data by extracting road link data, from its own road data, corresponding to the road link specified by transmitted data and by reconstructing road link data using transmitted data.
