Abstract: A fluid pressure-feed device includes a main tank and a sub tank. The sub tank is connected integrally with an upper portion of a main follower plate that applies pressurizing force to a urethane adhesive inside the main tank. A drum pump is provided in an upper portion of a sub follower plate provided in the sub tank. While the urethane adhesive is flowing into the sub tank from the main tank, the urethane adhesive is fed under pressure from the sub tank to a fluid passage by actuation of the drum pump. While the main tank is being replaced, the urethane adhesive inside the sub tank is fed under pressure to the fluid passage by the drum pump.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine includes a port injection valve and a feed pump that pressurizes the fuel. An engine ECU performs a stuck abnormality diagnosis of the fuel pressure sensor based on detection values of the fuel pressure sensor in first processing and second processing. The first processing includes setting a target pressure of the fuel in the storage section to a first pressure, and detecting a pressure of the fuel with the fuel pressure sensor. The second processing includes setting the target pressure of the fuel in a low-pressure delivery pipe to a second pressure lower than the first pressure, and detecting a pressure of the fuel. The engine ECU causes the first processing to be performed in response to a start signal that starts an internal combustion engine, and causes the second processing to be performed subsequent to the first processing.

Abstract: A remote operating system is equipped with an automatically operated vehicle and a remote operating device. A first processor of the automatically operated vehicle calculates a target steering angle of a first steering unit on the vehicle side during the performance of automatic operation control. A first communication device transmits the target steering angle to the remote operating device. A second processor on the remote operating device side controls an electric motor in such a manner as to generate a driving torque for making a steering angle of a second steering unit coincident with the target steering angle, during the execution of a cooperative mode in which a turning actuator on the vehicle side is controlled through cooperation between remote operation control for controlling the turning actuator based on the steering angle of the second steering unit steered by an operator and the automatic operation control.

Abstract: A hybrid vehicle includes: an engine for traveling in which a filter that removes particulate matter is attached to an exhaust system; a motor configured to generate a driving force for the hybrid vehicle; and an electronic control unit configured to restart injection of a fuel into the engine when a needed output of the engine reaches a threshold or higher while the injection of the fuel into the engine is stopped. The electronic control unit is configured to, when a filter regeneration condition that an accumulation amount of the particulate matter on the filter is equal to or more than a predetermined accumulation amount and a temperature of the filter is equal to or higher than a predetermined temperature is established, set the threshold to be higher than a threshold set when the filter regeneration condition is not established.

Abstract: A hybrid vehicle includes an engine that has a particulate matter filter, a motor, and an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to control the engine and the motor such that an intermittent operation of the engine is permitted and the hybrid vehicle travels with required power when a vehicle speed is lower than a first predetermined vehicle speed. The electronic control unit is configured to inhibit the intermittent operation of the engine when a deposition amount of particulate matters is equal to or greater than a first deposition amount and a state in which the vehicle speed is equal to or higher than a second predetermined vehicle speed and is lower than the first predetermined vehicle speed is continued for a first predetermined time.

Abstract: In a hybrid vehicle that includes an engine having a particulate matter removing filter configured to remove particulate matters in an exhaust system, when an increase in temperature of the particulate matter removing filter is requested in order to regenerate the particulate matter removing filter, dither control is executed to execute control such that an air-fuel ratio of the engine is repeated between a rich state and a lean state. Then, when the dither control is executed, control is executed such that the engine is operated at an operation point where the increase in temperature of the particulate matter removing filter is promoted among operation points where power output from the engine is retainable.

Abstract: A multi-cylinder internal combustion engine includes: a first fuel injection valve that injects fuel into each cylinder; a second fuel injection valve that injects fuel into an intake passage; and an exhaust recirculation device that causes some of exhaust flowing in an exhaust passage to recirculate into the intake passage. A control device is used in the multi-cylinder internal combustion engine. The control device limits recirculation of exhaust into the intake passage by the exhaust recirculation device when imbalance determination is conducted during engine operation by fuel injection from the first fuel injection valve only, compared to when imbalance determination is conducted during engine operation involving fuel injection from the second fuel injection valve.

Abstract: An exhaust structure includes a first exhaust path and a second exhaust path. The first exhaust path includes a box outlet and at least an exhaust duct that includes a duct inlet arranged below a rear seat and configured to open toward a battery A. The second exhaust path is communicated with the box outlet. A deck board is disposed in a luggage room. The second exhaust path includes space defined by a front end portion of the deck board closer to a front of a vehicle and at least a portion of the backrest of the rear seat and a gap defined by a front surface of the front end portion of the deck board and a portion of a back surface of the backrest opposite the front surface. Gas used for cooling down the battery is released from the gap to the luggage room via a duct exhaust conduit, a box exhaust conduit, a first interspace exhaust conduit, and a second interspace exhaust conduit.
