Abstract:
A polyfluoroalkyl iodide is reacted with a (meth)acrylic acid metal salt to form a corresponding polyfluoroalkyl (meth)acrylate ester. The polyfluoroalkyl (meth)acrylate ester is separated from the reaction product through the evaporation, so that the ester is recovered. According to the present method, the polyfluoroalkyl iodide is reacted with the (meth)acrylic acid metal salt without introducing water, thus making it possible to prepare a polyfluoroalkyl (meth)acrylate ester. The resulting ester can also be used to copolymerize an ethylenically unsaturated compound capable of copolymerizing with the ester.

Abstract:
A traction control system for a vehicle, which, during normal driving of the vehicle, if a driven wheel speed becomes less than a deceleration-control starting reference value which is set lower than a vehicle speed, a feed-back control of an opening degree of a throttle valve is started so as to converge the driven wheel speed into a target driven wheel speed. If a downshifting is conducted, the feed-back control of the throttle valve opening degree is feed-back controlled by using, in place of the driven wheel speed, a pseudo driven wheel speed calculated based on the number of revolutions of an engine and a gear position. With this arrangement, it is possible to open the throttle valve at an earlier stage to increase a driven wheel torque, and to avoid a deceleration slip at the time of downshifting at a high speed.
Abstract:
A wheel diameter judging system and wheel speed correcting system which calculates a driven wheel slip rate, and a driven wheel torque. A variation characteristic of the driven wheel slip rate relative to the variation in driven wheel torque is presumed using the method of least squares. A correction value corresponding to a ratio of the number of revolutions of a follower wheel to the number of revolutions of a driven wheel in a condition in which the driven wheel is not in a slipping state is calculated as an intercept of the driven wheel slip rate at the driving torque equal to zero in a graph of the variation characteristic. The driven wheel speed is corrected by the correction value. The driven wheel speed is corrected by the correction value. Thus, even if the driven wheel is in the slipping state, a difference in diameter between the follower and driven wheels can be accurately judged, and the follower wheel speed or the driven wheel speed can be accurately corrected.

Abstract:
A reference value for a traction control is calculated based on a vehicle speed. When a vehicle is in a predetermined turning state, so that a driven wheel speed is equal to or lower than a predetermined value and a lateral acceleration is equal to or larger than a predetermined value, a correction value is searched from a table based on the vehicle speed and a steering angle to correct an error of the reference value generated due to a difference between the locus of the driven wheels and the locus of the follower wheels during turning of the vehicle. The reference value is corrected by subtracting the correction value from the reference value (when the vehicle is a rear wheel drive vehicle) or by adding the correction value to the reference value (when the vehicle is a front wheel drive vehicle. Thus, the reference value for the fraction control such as a reference value for a target slip rate can be accurately in accordance with the turning state of the vehicle.

Abstract:
It is an object of the present invention to provide a transmitter which is inexpensive and small in size and is reduced in power dissipation and besides wherein the output power of a power amplifier can be varied to an arbitrary value. A phase modulator, a variable attenuator, a high power amplifier, a directional coupler, a detector, an error amplifier, a switch and an analog multiplier form an envelope feedback loop. The envelope feedback loop controls an envelope of a modulated wave detected by the detector so that a base band signal and the envelope of the modulated wave may coincide with each other. The circuits mentioned above, a smoothing circuit, another error amplifier, another switch and an adder form an operation point feedback loop. The operation point feedback loop smoothes an error of an output envelope detection signal of the detector and controls so that the smoothed error may be in the minimum.

Each partition plate has an upper end upwardly protruding from the periphery of the opening and a lower end obliquely downwardly extending from the periphery of the opening along the wall of the tubular guide member, so that a plurality of discrete passages are defined on the tubular guide. A cover plate is provided to cover the passages so that the liquid received on the plate member flows through the passages and is discharged from the liquid outlet of the tubular guide to form a vortex flow.
