Patent number: 11718226Abstract: In a vehicle control system, a risk frequency calculation unit counts the number of times that a risk level determination unit determines that a risk level is equal to or higher than a predetermined risk level within a predetermined period. Then, a warning frequency setting unit sets a frequency of warning in accordance with the number of times, counted by the risk frequency calculation unit, that the risk level of the driving operation by the driver is determined to be equal to or higher than the predetermined risk level within the predetermined period and activates a warning device.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2022Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Takaaki Nagatani

Publication number: 20220289215Abstract: A driving diagnosis device acquires at least one of vehicle information regarding a vehicle state and driving information regarding a driving state of the driver, and measures the number of times each of conditions of preset evaluation items related to driving is met, based on the acquired vehicle information and the acquired driving information. Then, the driving diagnosis device outputs warning information when the number of measurement times of the evaluation items reaches a predetermined warning number corresponding to the one of the evaluation items. Further, the driving diagnosis device performs advance notification to the driver when a predetermined notification condition is satisfied before the number of measurement times reaches the warning number.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2021Publication date: September 15, 2022Inventors: Yasuyuki Kamezaki, Shuhei Manabe, Takaaki Nagatani, Masato Endo

Patent number: 11021028Abstract: At least one underfill part is formed so that a central axis of the arm component coincides with a load line of the arm component. The central axis of the configuration is a line connecting centroids of cross-sectional shapes with one another in an axial direction of the arm component, the cross-sectional shapes being shapes on cross-sectional planes perpendicular to an axis of the arm component. The load line of the arm component is a line on which a load is imposed in the arm component.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2019Date of Patent: June 1, 2021Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Takaaki Nagatani, Katsuhiko Kojima

Publication number: 20190248199Abstract: A suspension arm includes a rod-like arm part, and a cylindrical collar part integrally formed with the arm part at an end of the arm part. A hollow part with a hollow formed inside thereof is formed along an axial direction of the arm part in the arm part. A communicating hole communicating between a space inside the collar part and the hollow part is formed in a connecting part of the collar part, the connecting part of the collar part connecting with the end of the arm part. The communicating hole is formed so as to be centered on a central axis of the arm part, the central axis of the arm part being a line connecting centroids of cross-sectional shapes with one another in the axial direction of the arm part, the cross-sectional shapes being shapes on cross-sectional planes perpendicular to an axis of the arm part.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2019Publication date: August 15, 2019Applicant: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Katsuhiko KOJIMA, Takaaki NAGATANI
