  • Patent number: 6449499
    Abstract: This invention provides a dual-mode radio communication apparatus which can make normal communications even when an external apparatus is connected to a radio communication apparatus, the communication scheme of which is set in a digital mode. When the radio communication apparatus is not connected to a vehicle-mount kit via a connector in an analog mode, a switch control means of a controller switches a switching circuit to communicate a signal with a base station using a built-in antenna. When the apparatus is connected to the vehicle-mount kit, the switch control means switches the switching circuit to communicate a signal with the base station using an external antenna via the vehicle-mount kit and a booster unit. In the digital mode, the switch control means switches the switching circuit to communicate a signal with the base station using the built-in antenna independently of the connection with the vehicle-mount kit.

  • Patent number: 6263855
    Abstract: A direct fuel injection-type spark-ignition internal combustion engine is disclosed. The engine comprises a spark plug, a fuel injector and a cavity formed on the top surface of the piston. The cavity has a bottom wall, a spark plug side wall and a fuel injector side wall. The fuel injector injects fuel toward the bottom wall of the cavity in stratified charge combustion. The fuel mainly proceeds toward the spark plug side wall of the cavity along the bottom wall, is deflected by the spark plug side wall and is led to the vicinity of the spark plug. In the engine, the fuel injector side wall of the cavity is provided with a deflecting portion. If a part of the injected fuel proceeds toward the fuel injector side wall along the bottom wall of the cavity, that part of the fuel is led to the vicinity of the spark plug by the deflecting portion.
