    Abstract: Poor opening is detected with certainty and reliability with respect to a ground line of an integrated circuit device regardless of the connection state of a load and the operating state of a drive circuit. In an integrated circuit device 10, a drive circuit 30 switches between conduction and interruption of a load current using switch elements 40 and 45. The ground line 31 is grounded via the GND terminal 32 to the common ground provided outside the integrated circuit device 10 and is connected to the drive circuit 30. The ground line 21 is grounded to the common ground via the GND terminal 22 and is connected to the control circuit 20. The diagnostic current supply circuit 90 supplies a predetermined diagnostic current to the ground line 31. The rectifying elements 61 and 62 are connected between the ground line 21 and the ground line 31. The diagnostic circuit 70 measures the potential difference between the ground line 31 and the ground line 21 and compares the potential difference with the predetermined comparison voltage 73 to diagnose the grounding state of the ground line 31.

    Abstract: A pin portion in which an introduction orifice leading to a back-pressure chamber is formed is disposed along inner peripheries of a main body, a main valve, and a pilot casing. A nut disposed on the pin portion is rotated relative to the pin portion to fasten the main body, the main valve, and the pilot casing together. This eliminates the necessity of machining a tool engagement portion in the pin portion and represses an increase in man-hours.

    Abstract: A processor (CPU 40e) of a control device (ECU 0) for an internal combustion engine identifies a first throttle valve opening degree θA and a second throttle valve opening degree θB at which a change rate (differential value) of an index (a deposit thickness, a decrease rate of an effective opening area, a flow rate decrease rate, and the like) correlated with a decrease rate of an effective opening area of a throttle valve changes (s109). The processor (CPU 40e) estimates an index at any throttle valve opening degree from the first throttle valve opening degree θA and the second throttle valve opening degree θB (s110), and calculates an effective opening area of the throttle valve from the estimated index (s112).

    Abstract: An electric actuator including: an electric motor capable of rotating forward and backward; and a motion conversion mechanism configured to convert rotation of the electric motor into reciprocating linear motion of a screw shaft. The motion conversion mechanism including: a nut configured to be rotationally driven by the electric motor; and the screw shaft capable of being threadedly inserted through the nut. A lubricant holding portion having an outer diameter larger than a diameter of a screw hole of the nut and being capable of housing lubricant is formed on an inner periphery of an end of the nut in an axial direction. A lid member configured to cover an opening end of the lubricant holding portion in an axial direction is provided. Thus, an electric actuator can prevent wear at a threaded engagement portion between a nut and a screw shaft by sufficiently lubricating the threaded engagement portion.

    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to sufficiently suppress a vibration and noise generated in a motor. A motor control device includes a first inverter circuit and a second inverter circuit of a redundant system, the first inverter circuit and the second inverter circuit controlling a motor, and a control unit that controls the first inverter circuit and the second inverter circuit. The first inverter circuit converts the DC power into the AC power based on a PWM signal generated by using a first carrier signal. The second inverter circuit converts the DC power into the AC power based on a PWM signal generated by using a second carrier signal. The control unit shifts phases of the first carrier signal and the second carrier signal by using, as a reference, pulsation of an electromagnetic force caused by a magnetic circuit of the motor.
