Enabling information provision of appropriate driving coaching and so forth in line with a user as a driver. A terminal device includes a driving information acquiring unit and a biological information acquiring unit functioning as an information acquiring unit that acquires information relating to the emotion, the driving skill, and the physical condition of a rider (user). Furthermore, an arithmetic unit of a server functions as an estimating unit that estimates the emotion, the driving skill, and the physical condition according to acquired information and functions as an information processing unit that carries out information provision to a rider according to the combination of the emotion, the driving skill, and the physical condition that are estimated.

Information providing system

A saddle-ride type vehicle in which left and right radiators are disposed on the sides of a vehicle body and the peripheries of these left and right radiators are covered by cover members to cause traveling air to pass through the left and right radiators from their inner sides to outer sides, the saddle-ride type vehicle including air introduction paths provided on the outer sides of the cover members and formed by the cover members and cowl members disposed outward of the cover members in the vehicle width direction.

Saddle-ride type vehicle

A traveling wind intake structure for a saddled vehicle, comprising a meter visor covering a meter from above; and a wind screen covering the meter visor from above, wherein an introduction portion for introducing a traveling wind rearward of the wind screen is formed between a lower end of the wind screen and a vehicle body, a gate-type louver member is provided between the wind screen and the meter visor, and is formed by a plate-shaped guide member for guiding rearward the traveling wind introduced through the introduction portion, and leg members extending downward from left and right end portions of the guide member in a vehicle width direction, and the leg members are each provided with a shaft portion extending along the vehicle width direction and supporting the louver member in a frontward and rearward swingable manner.

Traveling wind intake structure for saddled vehicle

To enable the close arrangement of right and left cooling fans that are common to each other and rotate in the same direction. A radiator is disposed forward of an engine, is horizontally lengthwise and is formed such that the center thereof bends to protrude rearward. A pair of right and left cooling fans is provided on the rear surface of the radiator. The left and right cooling fans have the same specifications, rotating in the same direction. A support plate is provided to surround the cooling fans, that is, to close left and right sides of, the upper side of and the rear of the cooling fans and open the lower side thereof. A partition portion is formed to project from the center of a rear wall to partition between the left and right cooling fans. Thus, the adjacent cooling fans can be prevented from interfering with each other and can be arranged close to each other.

Cooling device for motorcycle engine

An internal combustion engine for a small planing boat for preventing supercooling of the internal combustion engine before warm-up while enabling efficient cooling of the internal combustion engine after warm-up. An internal combustion engine for a small planing boat includes a first cooling water path B through which cooling water introduced from a jet propulsion pump flows toward an internal combustion engine main body via an exhaust manifold. A second cooling water path C is provided through which cooling water introduced from the jet propulsion pump flows toward an exhaust pipe via an oil cooler. A bypass cooling water path D is provided for branching a part of cooling water in the second cooling water path C which flows out from the oil cooler, so as to merge into cooling water in the first cooling water path B which flows into the internal combustion engine main body.

To provide an exhaust structure for a small watercraft that can cool exhaust gas, reduce the size and weight, and thereby cost of a backflow prevention chamber. An exhaust structure for a small watercraft is configured to be able to cool exhaust gas in the course of leading it to the outside when the exhaust gas of an engine is led to the outside for discharge. This exhaust structure includes a water muffler containing water therein. A backflow prevention chamber is disposed above the water muffler and adapted to prevent water from entering the side of the engine from the side of the water muffler. The backflow prevention chamber is provided with a cooling water injecting portion adapted to spray cooling water to the exhaust gas in an internal space. An outlet is formed in the bottom portion of the backflow prevention chamber to communicate with the water muffler.

Exhaust structure for small watercraft

A propulsion unit for a boat has a cooling water intake structure through which entry of cooling water is obstructed when the boat is towed while the impeller is not turned, and through which sufficient cooling water enters when the impeller is turned. The propulsion unit includes an impeller, plural stationary blades provided on the downstream side of the impeller, and a cooling water intake structure. The intake structure is disposed between adjacent first and second stationary blades, on the side of the first stationary blade relative to a bisecting line between the two stationary blades. Hydraulic pressure on the side of the first stationary blade, relative to the bisecting line, is lowered by guide action of the impeller, and hydraulic pressure on the side of the second stationary blade relative to the bisecting line is raised, respectively, when the boat is towed while the impeller is stopped.
