摘要:
A method for detecting the position and the velocity by using an encoder mounted directly on a moving body wherein original signals of the encoder are pulse-width modulated by using a sampling carrier wave and the position is detected by measuring the width of the pulses thus obtained. An apparatus for implementing the method comprises a carrier wave generation circuit, a pulse width modulation circuit which pulse-width modulates the original signals coming from the encoder by using the carrier wave, a pulse width timer which measures the width of the pulses thus modulated, and a microcomputer connected to the pulse width timer.

A rotary cylinder apparatus comprises a rotary drum mounted thereon with a magnetic head, a brushless motor for driving the rotary drum, a stationary drum housing the brushless motor and which is disposed opposing the rotary drum, and a revolution-rate detector for detecting the number of revolutions of the rotary drum. The brushless motor comprises a permanent magnet rotor connected to the rotary drum, a driving coil mounted on the stationary drum, and a position detector for detecting the position of the permanent magnet rotor in order to control current to be supplied to the driving coil. The detecting coil of the revolution-rate detector and the brushless motor are housed in the stationary drum and wiring of the driving coil and revolution-rate detecting coil is performed on a common wiring board. Thus, the driving section of the rotary cylinder apparatus is small-sized and made light in weight, and the number of processes of assembling the rotary cylinder apparatus can be decreased.

A vehicle control unit includes interface software memory means storing an interface software program for connecting an application software program with an OS (operating system) in an internal ROM, a CPU (central processing unit) for performing computation for the application software program and the interface software program, a RAM (erasable memory) storing data such as the result of computation, an I/O unit for extending the control unit, and extending means for communicating memory data through a bus or a LAN. A single-chip micro-computer used in vehicle control permits an increase in input/output points or the addition of functionality, in which case an application software program can continue to be used simply by rewriting the interface software program, without further remanufacturing of the core unit.

An object of the present invention is to provide a control unit for vehicle where increase in number of input/output and upgrading of function can easily be performed and, in addition to this, changing of a program in a control unit can easily be performed even when a single-chip micro-computer is used. In order to cope with an increase in input/output points and addition of function, a control unit is constructed such as to comprise interface software memory means storing an interface software program for connecting an application software program with an OS (operating system) in an internal ROM, a CPU (central processing unit) for performing computation of the application software program and the interface software program, a RAM (erasable memory) storing data such as the result of computation, an I/O unit for extending the control unit, and extending means for communicating memory data through a bus or a LAN. A single-chip micro-computer used in vehicle control can easily cope with increase in input/output points or addition of function, and an application software program can continuously be used only by rewriting an interface software program, and further re-manufacturing of a core unit is unnecessary. Therefore, development of a control unit including programs becomes easy.

A vehicle which includes a plurality of peripheral systems has a plurality of control units which transmit data to each other via a local area network, and which control the peripheral systems in response to sensor signals received from vehicle operating parameter sensors. A first control unit has a memory which stores a first interface software program which receives input signals from sensors and processes such signals for controlling at least one peripheral system of the vehicle, by means of an application software program and first and second interface software programs. A second control unit has a memory which stores an application software program for processing input signals for controlling at least one other peripheral system of the vehicle via a third interface software program. The second control unit receives input data from the first control unit via the local area network.

A counter timer device includes a plurality of registers each capable of performing any of the function of a counter/timer register, the function of a capture register and the function of a compare register, in accordance with a command from a central processing unit, and a plurality of task registers corresponding to tasks which are to be carried out by using the above registers. Each of the task registers stores a task instruction for specifying a counter/timer register and a capture/compare register which are used in a task, and for specifying the operation mode of each of the specified registers. The task registers are scanned to successively read out the task instructions, and each of the read-out task instructions controls the operation of each of registers used in a corresponding task. Thus, tasks corresponding to the task instructions are all carried out at once.

An electrostatic actuator includes a stationary element and a movable element. The stationary element has a surface which faces a surface of the moving element. Both the surface of the stationary element and the surface of the moving element have electrode lines disposed thereon, including a first set of parallel electrode lines and a second set of parallel electrode lines which are perpendicular to the lines in the first set. By facing the stationary surface and the movable surface towards each other such that the electrode lines of such surfaces are aligned, the movable element can be moved along either of two perpendicular axes when a voltage is applied to the electrode lines.
