摘要:
A vehicle includes a battery as a power storage device that can be charged and discharged, a booster unit, an inverter, and a motor generator operating as a vehicle driving unit receiving electric power supply from the battery to drive the vehicle, a coupling unit coupling the vehicle with an external power supply for charging the battery from the outside of the vehicle, and a control device performing control related to the battery. The control device determines whether or not a destination is a charging-available place where the battery can be charged from the outside of the vehicle, and if the destination is a charging-available place, performs control related to the battery so that the temperature of the battery is a charging-efficient temperature on arrival at the destination.

Various sensors, such as a GPS and a vehicle speed sensor, are used to detect a current position and direction of a vehicle. A normal running direction, which is a running direction specified for a road on which the vehicle runs, is acquired. In a state where a vehicle speed pulse is acquired at the predetermined intervals, it is detected whether the vehicle is placed in a wrong-way driving situation on the basis of the detected current direction of the vehicle and the normal running direction; whereas, in a state where a vehicle speed pulse is not acquired, it is not detected whether the vehicle is placed in the wrong-way driving situation on the basis of the detected current direction of the vehicle.

A road information acquisition device includes: a surface elevation acquisition unit that obtains a surface elevation; a road information acquisition unit that calculates first road information relating to a travel route to be traveled by a host vehicle on the basis of the surface elevation; and a structure determination unit that determines whether or not a structure exists on the travel route, wherein, when the structure determination unit determines that the structure exists on the travel route, the road information acquisition unit obtains second road information, which is different from the first road information, relating to a point at which the structure exists on the travel route.

A navigation apparatus for use in a hybrid vehicle in which an engine and a drive motor are used in combination acquires a current SOC value of a battery, geometry of roads around the vehicle, gradient information, traffic information, learning information, and so forth. A travelable range of the vehicle after the battery is charged is calculated for each of a plurality of various charge times on the basis of the acquired information. The plurality of calculated travelable ranges is simultaneously displayed on a liquid crystal display. It is thus possible to display a minimum charge time required to travel to a destination in a manner easily understandable to a user.

Fold-down vehicle seat having a foldable seat cushion and a seat back foldable on to the seat cushion. In this seat, a link element is movably connected between the forward end portion of the seat cushion and a vehicle floor so as to be movable upwardly and downwardly. Also, a slide element is operatively provided between the backward end portion of the seat cushion and the vehicle floor, thereby allowing the seat cushion to be slidingly movable forwardly and backwardly of the seat. Thus, the seat cushion is foldable down to a folded-down storage position in the vehicle floor, with the seat back being foldable onto the seat cushion. A lock mechanism is provided between the slide element and seat cushion, so that the seat can be locked to the folded-down storage position and also adjustably locked to a desired seating height, in conjunction with the link and slide elements.

A vehicle-mounted device control system includes a first vehicle-mounted device, a second vehicle-mounted device, and a control unit connected to the first vehicle-mounted device and the second vehicle-mounted device. The control unit includes signal transmission means that transmits a predetermined signal to the first vehicle-mounted device, cooperative control means that performs cooperative control in which the second vehicle-mounted device is controlled using information used by the first vehicle-mounted device when the first vehicle-mounted device responds to the predetermined signal, and alternative control means that performs alternative control in which the second vehicle-mounted device is controlled without using information, used by the first vehicle-mounted device, when the first vehicle-mounted device does not respond to the predetermined signal.

A normal running direction, which is a running direction specified for a road on which the vehicle runs, is acquired. In a state where a vehicle speed pulse is acquired at the predetermined intervals, it is detected whether the vehicle is placed in a wrong-way driving situation on the basis of the detected current direction of the vehicle and the normal running direction; whereas, in a state where a vehicle speed pulse is not acquired, it is not detected whether the vehicle is placed in the wrong-way driving situation on the basis of the detected current direction of the vehicle.
