摘要:
Between a direct-current power source and a connection point where a resonance current flowing in an opposite direction from a main current joins the main current from the direct-current power source in a resonant converter, there is provided a current blocking circuit which blocks the resonance current toward the direct-current power source. In consequence, it is possible to prevent the reverse charging of the direct-current power source with the resonance current which realizes soft switching in the resonant converter.

A rotatable performance device, such as a yo-yo, is modifiable such that the device can act as both a relatively narrow looping yo-yo and a relatively wide string trick yo-yo. Inner lobe spacers that facilitate these modifications and a method for attaching the spacers to the rotatable performance device to change its play characteristics are also disclosed.

A load variation detecting section 10a determines whether or not the actual load variation falls below a load variation threshold stored in a memory. If a load variation detecting section determines that a specific time period (for example, one minute) has elapsed since the actual load variation fell below a load variation threshold, a power supply section applies same power to reactors for the respective phases. On the other hand, a heat dissipation property calculating section measures temperature-rise rates of the elements for the respective phases, ranks the rates in order from the one having a higher heat dissipation property, and notifies the priority drive phase determining section of the result. A priority drive phase determining section chooses a phase having the highest heat dissipation property as a priority drive phase.

A vehicle includes a tip over detection device that uses a vertically oriented sensor to improve the accuracy of detecting when the vehicle has tipped over. An ECU communicates with the accelerometer and controls engine operation. The ECU stops the engine, preferably gradually, when the vehicle has tipped over. The sensor can also detect lean in additional directions that are orthogonal to the vertical direction.

A rotatable performance device, such as a yo-yo, is modifiable such that the device can act as a relatively responsive device for beginners and a relatively stable device for advanced users. Spacers that facilitate these modifications and a method for configuring the spacers to change the device's responsiveness and stability are also disclosed.

An apparatus comprises: a voltage monitoring unit for monitoring input direct-current voltages of first and second converters whose output ends are connected in parallel to each other; and a judgment control unit for judging that an output diode of the first converter is short-circuited, when an input direct-current voltage monitored by the voltage monitoring unit with respect to the first converter rises up to a post-step-up voltage stepped up by the second converter during a step-up operation of the second converter.
摘要:
A straddle-type vehicle that omits a main switch without requiring a special operation to start the engine when battery power is supplied to engine-related electrical components. An electrical circuit has a pickup sensor that detects that the engine is in a start preparation state. An ECU connects an ignition coil, injector and fuel pump with the battery when the start preparation state is detected.

An A/D-converter for a knock determination of an engine performs A/D-conversion with respect to a knock signal having a reference voltage and to another sensor signal having a reference voltage that differs therefrom. When the engine rotation is less than 1000 rpm, since the knock signal is too small to perform malfunction determination, integration of "0" point data (reference voltage: 2.5V) of an integrating circuit is performed within a knock determination time period. The resulting data is A/D-converted by the A/D-converter to thereby update the "0" point value stored in a RAM. On the other hand, in a range of greater than 1000 rpm where malfunction determination can be performed of the knock sensors, within the knock determination time period, the knock signal is integrated using the integrating circuit.
摘要:
In a pump control circuit, if a battery voltage declines to a voltage level lower than that required to insure a constant voltage, a low-voltage detection circuit outputs a low voltage detection signal. In the case of the decline in the battery voltage, an NOR circuit outputs the conversion signal from an internal logic section, and a pump control signal bypassing the internal logic section, giving priority to the latter signal. A motor drive circuit turns FET ON and OFF in accordance with the output signal of the NOR circuit. According to ON/OFF of the FET, the intermittent control of the current from the battery to the pump drive motor is performed.
