Publication number: 20140012499Abstract: A guiding device, includes: a first position detecting unit which detects a present position; an obtaining unit which obtains a present position detected by a second position detecting unit, from a sensor unit having the second position detecting unit which detects the present position; a detecting unit which detects a communication condition with the sensor unit; a determining unit which determines whether to preferentially use the present position detected by the first position detecting unit or the present position detected by the second position detecting unit, based on the communication condition; and a controlling unit which displays a guidance based on the present position determined by the determining unit, on a display unit. Therefore, since the present position can be calculated with accuracy, it becomes possible to appropriately perform the guide based on the present position.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 25, 2011Publication date: January 9, 2014Applicant: Pioneer CorporationInventors: Chihiro Hirose, Shunichiro Nagao, Isao Endo, Hitoshi Kaneko, Kazuaki Tanaka

Publication number: 20130185902Abstract: In a cam lock buckle a slide mechanism holds a movable member so that the movable member can slide between a first position at which a shaft is located close to a first end of an elongated hole and a second position at which the shaft is located close to a second end of the elongated hole. A gap defined between a holding portion and a bottom portion when the movable member is slid to the second position is narrower than a gap defined between the holding portion and the bottom portion when the movable member is slid to the first position. One of the holding portion and the bottom portion facing the holding portion is provided with a concave groove and the other of the holding portion and the bottom portion is provided with a convex tread that pushes a part of the belt into the concave groove.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2010Publication date: July 25, 2013Inventor: Hitoshi Kaneko

Publication number: 20130117974Abstract: A buckle includes a male member and a female member. The male member includes: a base; a pair of legs that project from the base; engaging portions that are provided on the legs to be engageable with the female member; and a linking body that links the pair of legs. The linking body includes a curved portion that is curved such that the middle thereof is closest to the base. A pair of projecting portions that are substantially parallel with an insertion direction of the male member extend from the base to be disposed outside the curved portion such that the curved portion is interposed therebetween. With this arrangement, the linking body for linking the pair of legs can be disposed with less possibility that other objects are caught in a space in the male member and without increasing a length dimension in the insertion direction more than necessary. The male member can be stably held relative to the female member against a torsion force.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 4, 2013Publication date: May 16, 2013Applicant: YKK CorporationInventors: Hitoshi Kaneko, Ryoichiro Uehara

Publication number: 20110173783Abstract: A buckle includes a male member (A) and a female member (B). The male member (A) includes: a base (10) to which a string member is attachable; a pair of legs (20) that project from the base (10) and are elastically deformable in directions intersecting an insertion direction of the male member (A); and engaging portions (30) that are provided to the legs (20) and are engageable with the female member (B), When the male member (A) is inserted into the female member (B), parts of the legs (20) come into contact with inner walls of the female member (B) to form biasing portions (70) that bias the male member (A) in an opposite-insertion direction using a resilience of the legs (20).Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2008Publication date: July 21, 2011Applicant: YKK CorporationInventor: Hitoshi Kaneko

Patent number: 7818125Abstract: Based on a transfer request from a portable terminal though an input operation or communication, a two-dimensional code is generated, the code containing information of a scale rate of map information for guidance displayed on the in-vehicle terminal and a current position of a vehicle. The two-dimensional code is displayed on a terminal display unit together with a region of the map information corresponding to a region to be displayed on the portable terminal. When the portable terminal captures the two-dimensional code with an image pickup unit, the portable terminal recognizes the scale rate and the current position with a code analyzer, receives a region of the map information corresponding to the scale rate and containing at least the current position from the server unit and displays the information on the portable terminal display unit.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2005Date of Patent: October 19, 2010Assignees: Pioneer Corporation, Increment P CorporationInventors: Ichiro Hatano, Koji Hirose, Hitoshi Kaneko

Publication number: 20080283688Abstract: A holder is provided with a base, a first bent portion that extends from a first end of the base, and a second bent portion that extends from a second end of the base or the first bent portion. The first bent portion has a first engaging element that is engaged with an engaging concave of the base. The second bent portion has a second engaging element that is engaged with the engaging concave of the base. A first accommodating space within which an object is held by the base and the first bent portion and a second accommodating space within which an object is held by the base and the second bent portion are formed. A movement stopper is provided on at least one of the second bent portion and the second engaging element to prevent the movement of first engaging element in a disengaging direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 8, 2008Publication date: November 20, 2008Inventors: Hitoshi Kaneko, Hisanori Kato
