摘要: A condition monitoring system includes a monitoring terminal, an acceleration sensor, and a data processor. The data processor calculates a diagnostic parameter from data measured by the acceleration sensor, determines a degree of damage to a bearing or a gear included in a wind turbine generator based on the diagnostic parameter, and controls the monitoring terminal to show information indicating a degree of suppression of electric power generated by the wind turbine generator in accordance with the degree of damage to the bearing or the gear.

摘要: A bearing part (10) is composed of a steel, and has a quench-hardened layer (11) in a surface of the bearing part. The quench-hardened layer includes a plurality of martensite crystal grains. The plurality of martensite crystal grains are classified into a first group and a second group. A minimum value of crystal grain sizes of the martensite crystal grains belonging to the first group is larger than a maximum value of crystal grain sizes of the martensite crystal grains belonging to the second group. A value obtained by dividing a total area of the martensite crystal grains belonging to the first group by the total area of the plurality of martensite crystal grains is more than or equal to 0.3. A value obtained by dividing, by the total area of the plurality of martensite crystal grains, a total area of the martensite crystal grains belonging to the first group except for a martensite crystal grain that has a minimum crystal grain size and that belongs to the first group is less than 0.3. An average grain size of the martensite crystal grains belonging to the first group is less than or equal to 1.5 μm. The quench-hardened layer (11) further includes a plurality of cementite grains. A number density of cementite grains each having a grain size of more than or equal to 1 μm is more than or equal to 0.025/μm2.

摘要: Provided is a steering system which includes a hub unit with a steering function and a control device. A steering actuator includes a motor and a linear drive mechanism configured to convert a rotational output from the motor to a linear motion. An angle sensor is configured to sense a rotational angle of the motor and capable of generating two or more angle sensor values. A position sensor is configured to sense a position of the linear drive mechanism which represents an amount of displacement of an output rod and capable of outputting the same in the form of a position sensor value. The control device is configured to compare each of the angle sensor values sensed and generated by the angle sensor against the position sensor value sensed by and output from the position sensor to determine whether any one of the angle sensor values is incorrect.
