Abstract: A vehicle control device executes a cruise control to let a vehicle travel in such a manner that an acceleration is equal to a predetermined acceleration, when an execution condition becomes satisfied, and starts a vehicle speed upper limit control to let the vehicle travel in such a manner that the vehicle speed does not exceed an upper limit value determined based on a shape of a curve section, when a start condition becomes satisfied. The vehicle control device starts displaying a display element in a first display mode, when the vehicle speed upper limit control is started. At a time point at which the vehicle speed upper limit control is ended, the vehicle control device starts displaying the display element in a second display mode different from the first display mode if the execution condition is not satisfied.

Abstract: A driving assistance apparatus includes an on-vehicle sensor and a driving assistance ECU. The ECU detects presence of a preceding vehicle traveling immediately forward of an own vehicle, on the basis of pieces of information from the sensor, chooses the preceding vehicle as a vehicle to follow, and controls a drive apparatus, a braking apparatus, and a steering apparatus such that the own vehicle follows the vehicle to follow. When the own vehicle follows a first vehicle chosen as the vehicle to follow and the speed of the own vehicle or the first vehicle is a predetermined threshold speed or lower, upon determination that the own vehicle can follow a second vehicle traveling faster than the own vehicle in a second lane located adjacent to a first lane in which the own vehicle is traveling, the ECU changes the vehicle to follow from the first vehicle to the second vehicle.

Abstract: A vehicle control device is configured to calculate a first target acceleration based on first information on a road shape of a travelling road when a first situation has been occurring, and calculate a second target acceleration based on second information obtained separately from the first information when a second situation has been occurring. The first situation occurs when the first information indicates that the traveling road is in a curved section. The second situation occurs when the second information indicates that the traveling road is in the curved section. The vehicle control device controls the vehicle, when both situations of the first situation and the second situation have been occurring, such that an actual acceleration approaches a higher priority target acceleration with a higher priority between the first target acceleration and the second target acceleration.

Abstract: A driving support device is configured to restrict notification of information on a presence of an oncoming vehicle in an opposing path entering the intersection to a driver of a host vehicle over a restriction period which is a period from a first time point at which it is determined that a state of a traffic signal has been switched from a first state in which the turn of the host vehicle is prohibited to a second state in which the turn of the host vehicle is permitted to a time point at which it is estimated that the host vehicle is able to perform the turn at an intersection based on information on the state of the host vehicle after the first time point, and to release the restriction of the notification of the information when the restriction period has elapsed from the first time point.

Abstract: According to an aspect of the present invention, an RFID tag has a long-distance communication RFID and a plurality of short-distance communication RFIDs. The RFID tag has tear-off lines for separating the short-distance communication RFID from the whole RFID tag, and when the short-distance communication RFID is separated, a loop-shaped antenna of the long-distance communication RFID is also cut up. And the RFID tag has an overall management identification code for identifying the whole tag before separation and a partial management identification code for identifying a partial tag after separation.

Abstract: In a pump apparatus of the present invention, a portion of fluid sent to a fluid-sending destination is circulated to a pumping driving chamber on one side of a cylinder through a circulation passage. The pump apparatus includes a switching valve which switches inflow and outflow of the circulated fluid with respect to the pumping driving chamber. The switching valve is connected to a piston rod through a link mechanism, and mechanically carries out the switching operation using a pumping driving force.
