An in-vehicle system according to an embodiment includes a detection unit, a reception unit, and a recovery unit. The detection unit detects a freeze state of a navigation apparatus. The reception unit receives a recovery operation from a user demanding recovery of the navigation apparatus. The recovery unit performs a recovery process for the navigation apparatus upon detection of the freeze state of the navigation apparatus by the detection unit and upon reception of the recovery operation by the reception unit.

In an imaging device, as a baseis moved from a certain position on an upper side of an imaging area SA to a different position on a left side of the imaging area SA, a camera headis pivotally rotated together with a head-side armrelative to a second arm. Such combination of the movement of the basewith the pivotal rotation of the camera headchanges the operation mode of the imaging devicefrom a first working mode to a second working mode and enables the imaging deviceto take images in the second working mode. Regardless of the positional change of the basefrom the position on the upper side of the imaging area SA to the position on the left side of the imaging area SA with the change of the operation mode of the imaging devicefrom the first working mode to the second working mode, an up-down positional relation in an imaging view field of an internal camera, which is incorporated in the camera headand is operated to shoot downward and take an image of a shooting object sheet ST set in the imaging area SA, is kept unchanged relative to the shooting object sheet ST.

A rear seat cushion in a motor vehicle, which is mounted to rotate forwardly into an erect position to expand the loading space in the rear portion of the vehicle compartment. A quadric rotary link mechanism is used to connect a seat cushion to a vehicle floor and includes a seat cushion side link provided on the seat cushion substantially horizontally in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, a floor side link provided on the vehicle floor positioned downwardly of the forward end of the seat cushion substantially vertically in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, a lower link pin-connected at opposite ends thereof to the forward end portion of the seat cushion side link and the bottom end portion of the floor side link, and an upper link pin-connected at opposite ends thereof to the rear end portion of the seat cushion side link and the top end portion of the floor side link.

A vehicle body structure for preventing suction of water into the vehicle's air cleaner. A suction duct connected to the air cleaner extends forwardly in the vehicle to an opening in a radiator support panel for introducing cold outside air. A return passage also having an opening at its forward end and in the same support panel is provided just under the suction duct opening in that panel.
