Abstract: When a character string for a street search is input in a vehicle navigation apparatus, street data are searched, and all streets which include the character string for the street search in the formal street name character string are extracted. The extracted street is displayed, in a list format on a display screen, by using a portion of the formal street name string that is registered as a proper noun part of the formal street name character string. The extracted streets are sorted in the list format so that a street with the proper noun part including the character string for searches comes to the top of listing of the extracted streets, thereby making it easy to find out a desired street in the listing of the extracted streets.

Abstract: In a Czochralski (CZ) single crystal puller equipped with a cooler and a thermal insulation member, which are to be disposed in a CZ furnace, smooth recharge and additional charge of material are made possible. Further, elimination of dislocations from a silicon seed crystal by use of the Dash's neck method can be performed smoothly. To these ends, there is provided a CZ single crystal puller, wherein a cooler and a thermal insulation member are immediately moved upward away from a melt surface during recharge or additional charge of material or during elimination of dislocations from a silicon seed crystal by use of the Dash's neck method.

Abstract: A navigation system for use in a subject vehicle for organizing a navigation instruction of a navigation route toward a destination in map data includes a closeness determination function for determining that a current position of the subject vehicle from the destination is a predetermined range, and a partial route audio navigation provision function for collectively providing the navigation instruction in an audible manner from the current position of the subject vehicle to the destination based on determination by the closeness determination function.

Abstract: A temperature control apparatus for radiating heat from a side door to a vehicle interior is disclosed. A heat source is disposed within a peripheral edge part of an opening in a vehicle body. A heat pipe is provided to the side door. When the opening is closed by the side door, the heat source and heat pipe are thermally connected by a heat transmission mechanism.
