Abstract:
A motor drive apparatus according to the present invention comprises: an electric shunt which shunts a current flowing through a power line connected to a motor; a first current detection unit and a second detection unit, each disposed on either side of a node shunted by the electric shunt, for detecting the current flowing through the power line; a shunt commanding unit which gives a shunt command to the electric shunt to effect shunting of the current; and a determining unit which determines the presence or absence of a fault in the electric shunt, based on the shunt command and on current values detected by the first current detection unit and the second detection unit.
Abstract:
An attachment capable of preventing liquid from adhering to a specific electronic component within an electronic device. An electronic substrate has an attachment which can be attached to and detached from the electronic substrate. The attachment has an attachment part detachably attached to an edge of the electronic substrate; and a shield part connected to or integrally formed with the attachment part. The attachment part is a clip-like member having a certain degree of elasticity, and is configured to grip an edge of the electronic substrate so that the attachment is held at a predetermined place. The shield part has an inclined surface, and is configured to shield the electronic component so that liquid, such as a splash or droplet moving toward the electronic component, does not adhere to the component when the attachment is held at the predetermined place.
