  • Patent number: 11578985
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus acquires a route score including a travel cost and a coefficient for each of a plurality of driving route candidates. The information processing apparatus acquires a user score including an individual rate that is a time-cost conversion rate particular to a mobile user and a weight application rate particular to the mobile user. Based on the respective route scores of the plurality of driving route candidates and the user score of the mobile user, the information processing apparatus converts the travel cost of each of the plurality of driving route candidates into a corresponding cost that is a cost obtained by reflection of the time-cost conversion rate and the weight application rate of the mobile user in the travel cost. The information processing apparatus determines a recommendation order of the plurality of driving route candidates based on the corresponding costs of the plurality of driving route candidates.

  • Patent number: 11371580
    Abstract: A centrifugal pendulum damper in which a rolling mass can be lubricated by a simple structure without limiting vibration damping performance. The pendulum damper comprises: a rotary member; an inertia body arranged concentrically with the rotary member; a rolling mass held in a retainer on an outer circumference of the rotary member; a recess formed on an inner circumference of the inertia body; and a raceway surface formed on an inner circumference of the recess to which the rolling mass is contacted. In the centrifugal pendulum damper, oil remaining in the recess is discharged out of the recess through an oil passage.

  • Patent number: 11353086
    Abstract: A torsional vibration damper that can reduce collision noise of an inertia body when a rotary member is stopped, and a control device therefore. In the torsional vibration damper, a rotary member is mounted on an output shaft of an engine such that none of rolling masses is situated within a predetermined angle range above a rotational center axis of the rotary member when the engine is stopped. Therefore, when the engine is stopped, the inertia body will not be supported by only one of the rolling masses situated within the predetermined angle range.

  • Patent number: 10962085
    Abstract: A torsional vibration damper includes a planetary rotary unit and an elastic body that couples two rotary elements of three rotary elements so that the two rotary elements can rotate relatively to each other. The torsional vibration damper includes a shaft supporting member by which a rotation center axis of at least any one rotary element of the two rotary elements and a rotation center axis of the rotary element other than the planetary rotary unit and the two rotary elements are held on the same axis. The shaft supporting member has a holding section that is disposed in a position between fellow planetary rotary elements and not making contact with the planetary rotary elements and that fits with and thereby suppresses movement of the rotary element other than the planetary rotary unit and the two rotary elements in the axial direction.
