摘要:
A printing apparatus for printing on a medium to be printed includes an ink ejection section for intermittently ejecting ink while moving, wherein the printing apparatus detects a distance from the ink ejection section to the medium to be printed, and controls a timing of intermittent ejection of the ink from the ink ejection section based on the distance that has been detected. With such a printing apparatus, the timing at which ink is ejected can be controlled taking into account the distance from the ink ejection section to the medium to be printed.

A fuel cell system has a plurality of fuel cells stacked in one or more groups of fuel cells. Each fuel cell includes a fuel electrode supplied with fuel gas at a fuel gas supply pressure, an oxidizing electrode supplied with oxidizing gas at an oxidizing gas supply pressure, and an electrolyte membrane disposed between the fuel electrode and the oxidizing electrode. A pressure-difference control unit generates a pressure difference across the membrane such that the fuel gas supply pressure is greater than the oxidizing gas supply pressure in each fuel cell, a cell-voltage measuring device measures a cell voltage for each fuel cell or each group of fuel cells in the fuel cell stack, and a leakage determination unit determines the presence or absence of a leaking cell based on the behavior of the cell voltage of each fuel cell while the pressure difference is increased with time.

A printer has a motor and an encoder. The encoder opposes a scale having marks or slits at predetermined intervals. Staggered detectors detect positions of the marks or slits, and output detection signals. Signal generators output signals with respective frequencies based on the various detectors. A controller detects the rotational position and speed of the motor the signals output from the signal generators, and controls the rotational speed of the motor by PID control on the basis of the position and speed thus detected.

The present invention relates to a liquid ejecting apparatus including: a movable head provided with a plurality of nozzles for ejecting a liquid; a carry unit for carrying a medium in a predetermined carrying direction; and a sensor for detecting an edge of the medium, the liquid ejecting apparatus controlling ejection of the liquid from the plurality of nozzles in accordance with a result of the detection of the sensor. In this liquid ejecting apparatus, the position, in the carrying direction, of the sensor is at the same position of or on an upstream side of a nozzle located most upstream in the carrying direction, of among the plurality of nozzles. In this way, it is possible to arrange the sensor for detecting the edge of the paper at the most suitable position, and to suppress waste of ink that is ejected from the nozzles.

A motor control device for controlling rotation of a motor by controlling a driving voltage applied to the motor is provided. The device includes a driving voltage control unit configured to control the driving voltage, and a detecting unit configured to detect rotation of the motor. The motor has operating characteristics indicative of relationship between the driving voltage and a rotation speed of the motor, where the operating characteristics have a specific dead-band range of driving voltages wherein the rotation speed of the motor is zero regardless of changes in the driving voltage. The driving voltage control unit performs a low rotation control operation including at least one alternating repetition of a first control operation and a second control operation. The first control operation adjusts the driving voltage to have a value outside of the dead-band range from a value within the dead-band range, while the second control operation adjusts the driving voltage to have the value within the dead-band range from the value outside of the dead-band range. The second control operation is performed after a specific first amount of motor rotation has been detected in the first control operation.

A scale is provided with a plurality of marks or slits arranged in a first direction such that a distance between centers of adjacent marks or slits in the first direction assumes a first length. An encoder is opposing the scale and includes: a photo emitter, operable to emit light; and a plurality of photo detectors, each of which has a light receiving region adapted to receive the light emitted from the photo emitter and transmitted by way of the marks or slits, and is operable to output a detection signal in accordance with a quantity of the light received by the light receiving region, so that the detection signal has a first cycle corresponding to the first length. A control signal generator is operable to generate a control signal having a second cycle which is (½n1) of the first cycle. A controller is operable to estimate a rotation speed of a motor based on a third cycle which is defined by subsequent (2n1) second cycles. Here, n1 is an integer no less than one.
