Abstract:
An inverter device includes a converter circuit that rectifies a first alternating current output from a power supply to generate a rectified current, a capacitor that stores therein the rectified current and outputs a direct current based on the rectified current, and an inverter circuit that converts the direct current into a second alternating current for driving a load. Moreover, a voltage control unit generates and outputs, during a period when any one of an instantaneous power cut and an instantaneous voltage drop occurs in the power supply, a first current command based on a voltage of the capacitor and a second current command; and a current control unit generates and outputs, based on the first current command, the second current command for controlling the inverter circuit to output the second alternating current.
Abstract:
The object is to effectively reduce the resonant current flowing inside a converter unit and an inverter unit in a power conversion apparatus for an electric vehicle. The power conversion apparatus includes a converter unit that converts an alternating-current power into a direct-current power, an inverter unit that converts the direct-current power into an intended alternating-current power and supplies the intended alternating-current power to an electric motor that drives an electric vehicle, a housing that accommodates the converter unit and the inverter unit and a part of which is connected to ground, and a magnetic core that is disposed inside the housing and that suppresses the resonant current flowing between the converter unit and the inverter unit.
Abstract:
A mobile terminal apparatus requests a character be displayed which is assigned to a first key upon being pushed, and if operated continuously for a time span that exceeds a predetermined time, requests a next character be displayed which is assigned to the first key instead of the character assigned to the first key and currently being displayed, if the time span exceeds the predetermined time and the character assigned to the first key and currently being displayed is a special character that has another variation, changes the character to a character of the another variation, and, when the time span exceeds the predetermined time and the character assigned to the first key and currently being displayed is not a special character, requests a new character be displayed right next to the character which is currently being displayed.
Abstract:
A double pipe exhaust manifold includes an inner pipe, an outer pipe formed in a cylindrical shape by joining at least one side edge thereof by welding, a space retaining member disposed in an annular space defined between the inner pipe and the outer pipe, a connection pipe connecting to a exhaust gas recirculation valve, and a mesh ring. Opening holes are formed in the inner pipe and the outer pipe so that the opening holes are opposed to each in a radial direction of the pipes. The connection pipe is connected to the opening hole of the outer pipe. The mesh ring is interposed between the inner pipe and the outer pipe in a state that the mesh ring plugs an annular opening part defined between opening edges of the opening holes.
Abstract:
To protect a plastic intake manifold of an internal combstion engine from heat possessed by exhaust gas recirculation gas, a cooling device is arranged between the plastic intake manifold and an exhaust gas recirculation valve. The cooling device cools the exhaust gas recirculation gas by means of a coolant. A gas discharge part of the cooling device constitutes a pipe portion which penetrates through an exhaust gas inlet hole of the intake manifold keeping a given space between an outer wall of the pipe portion and an inner wall of the exhaust gas inlet hole. The pipe portion may be a leading end portion of an exhaust gas recirculation pipe extending from an exhaust system of the engine.
Abstract:
An intake manifold of a multi-cylinder engine comprises a lower branch and an upper branch both having an identical number of pipe elements. One end of the lower branch is connected to a plurality of intake ports of an engine cylinder head, and at the other free end, the pipe elements are arranged in a row. The upper branch overhangs one side of the cylinder head. One end of the upper branch is connected to a collector disposed above the cylinder head, and at the other free end, the pipe elements are arranged in a row. Flanges are formed around the pipe elements at the free ends of these branches. First holes are provided at positions nearby the two ends of the row. Second holes are formed on an edge of the flanges, these holes being offset from the line joining the first holes on the opposite side to the aforesaid side of the cylinder head. A sealing member is inserted between the flanges, and the flanges are joined tightly together by bolts via these holes. Ample support and sealtightness resistant to vibration are thereby obtained by this construction.
Abstract:
When an overcurrent detection section detects an overcurrent, a control circuit performs ON-OFF control for switching devices each switchable between a forward direction and a reverse direction, in a mode in which a current having flowed is reduced, such that when the mode is a mode in which a current is passed through any of diodes, a switching device connected in parallel with the current-passed diode is turned ON. Thus, even when an overcurrent occurs, the current flowing in the diode connected in parallel with the switching device is reduced, and the diode is protected from being deteriorated or broken by the overcurrent.
Abstract:
In a system supplying power from an AC power supply to a three-phase motor via a converter and an inverter, a leakage current reducing apparatus is connected to a connection line between the AC power supply and the converter. A common mode transformer detects, as common mode voltage, common mode current flowing from the AC power supply to the connection line. The common mode voltage is inputted to a voltage amplifier via a filter apparatus. Output voltage obtained by voltage amplification passes through a capacitor and then is applied as an AC component to a neutral point of capacitors connected in a Y-connection fashion, so as to have the same phase as that of the common mode voltage. Thus, current having the same phase as that of the common mode current is supplied via the capacitors to the converter through the connection line, thereby reducing the common mode current.
Abstract:
To provide an inkjet printing apparatus that suppresses occurrence of image deterioration, such as a texture, a moire, and a streak in a printing result. In order for this to be achieved, a level is set up to a overlapping portion of a chip of a print head depending on dot impact accuracy, and a print data distribution rate of each chip in the overlapping portion is determined according to the level.
Abstract:
A first reading unit that reads a pattern or an image formed on a sheet by a print unit for recognizing a print unit state, a second reading unit that reads a cut mark formed on the sheet on a downstream thereof, a cutter that cuts the sheet on a downstream thereof, and a reverse unit that reverses the sheet fed to the print unit again are provided. In duplex printing, the sheet where images are sequentially printed on a first surface is led to the reverse unit, the front and rear faces are reversed, and the sheet is fed to the print unit again. The sheet where images and cut marks are sequentially printed on a second surface is cut by the cutter for each piece and discharged. The sheet is cut on the basis of a reading of the cut mark by the second reading unit.
