    摘要: A method for measuring the flow rate of fluid such as liquified petroleum gas fuel for an automobile fuel. A signal of the fluid flow rate and a signal of the fluid temperature are produced by using the signals from an electric heater and a first, second, and third temperature-dependent resistors in a signal processing circuit. The produced signals are supplied to a computer circuit to carry out modification, linearization, and multiplication by a conversion constant for linearization which is corrected regarding temperature characteristic. The result of calculation in the computer circuit is displayed on a display device.

    摘要: A gas flow measuring apparatus includes first and second temperature dependent resistors located in a gas tube respectively downstream and upstream of an electric heater which is also located in the gas tube. The first and second temperature dependent resistors are connected to form a bridge circuit together with first and second reference resistors. Between a pair of diagonal junctions of the bridge circuit, a potential difference is produced depending on the flow rate of the gas and the power supplied to the electric heater, and a measuring circuit controls the power supplied to the electric heater so that the potential difference is maintained at a predetermined value irrespective of a change in flow rate of the gas. The measuring circuit includes a chopper circuit to convert the potential difference into a square wave having a peak-to-peak value substantially equal to the potential difference and having a center reference level of the square wave corresponding to a voltage level determined by a reference voltage generator and an adder circuit. The square wave from the chopper circuit is then amplified and half rectified and applied to a sample-hold circuit to produce a voltage signal representative of the potential difference. A differential amplifier having two inputs of the voltage signal from the sample-hold circuit and a predetermined voltage produces an output signal which is used to control the power supplied to the electric heater. A current flowing into the electric heater is used to determine the flow rate of the gas.

    摘要: A method for detecting knock for an internal combustion engine having a plurality of cylinders in which a vibration sensor is attached to each cylinder and a peak value of vibration detected by the sensor is sampled over a predetermined interval near the top dead center. The sampled value is converted from analog to digital and stored for a predetermined number of sampling times to obtain the average value for each cylinder. Then the frequency of occurrences in which the ratio between the sampled peak value and the average value exceeds a reference value is obtained, and the knock is determined when the frequency of occurrences in any one cylinder exceeds a predetermined value or when the average frequency of occurrences of the all cylinders exceed another predetermined value.

    摘要: The timing of spark ignition is set in normal operating conditions at a programed spark advance angle corresponding to the MBT (minimum spark advance for best torque). When knocking of the engine is detected by a vibration sensor, the ignition timing is delayed by a predetermined amount, e.g., 2.DELTA..theta., for each engine cycle that knocking is detected in synchronism with the rotation of the engine. When knocking is not detected, the ignition timing is advanced by another predetermined amount, for each engine cycle that knocking is not detected. e.g., .DELTA..theta.. In this method for controlling the spark timing, the amount of retardation, 2.DELTA..theta., is selected to be larger than the other amount of advance, .DELTA..theta..

    摘要: A road surface detecting device has a circular plate connected with an axle of a vehicle so as to be rotated with said axle, and has a large number of teeth at regular intervals in its outer periphery. A rotary sensor detecting the passage of the teeth of the circular plate, and generates a pulse signal, and a microcomputer receive the pulse signal. The microcomputer calculates instantaneous speeds of a wheel from the period of the pulse signal and calculates an average value of a plurality of instantaneous speeds obtained in the predetermined rotations of a wheel another average value of a plurality of instantaneous speeds obtained in the next predetermined rotations of a wheel is also calculated as a presumed speed of a vehicle based on one and another average values. The microcomputer then calculates an absolute value of a difference between the instantaneous speeds in the predetermined rotations after next of a wheel and the presumed speed of vehicle, cancels an absolute value of an oldest difference every time when an absolute value of a newest difference is obtained, and calculates a successive integrated value by adding absolute values of a predetermined number of differences to one another. The microcomputer determines the road surface condition to be a bad condition when the successive integrated value is not less than a predetermined value or as a good condition when the successive integrated value is not more than the predetermined value.

    摘要: Disclosed is a local area network for a vehicle which comprises a plurality of terminal stations each having an input/output port for various signals, a main-loop formed by series connection of the terminal stations and transmission lines, a sub-loop arranged in parallel to the main-loop and formed by series connection of the terminal stations and transmission lines, and controllers. One of the terminal stations receives a large amount of information such as an audio signal from an audio transmitter and one of the other terminal stations supplies a large amount of information such as an audio signal to an audio receiver. When the main-loop is in a normal operation state, the main-loop operates as a token-passing system and the sub-loop acts as a direct transmission route from one of the terminal stations to another terminal station, and when the main-loop is in an abnormal operation state, the main-loop is coupled with the sub-loop and the transmitting of information such as an audio signal is stopped, and simultaneously, the sub-loop is switched to the token-passing system. Thus, the double loops, i.e., the main-loop and the sub-loop, are effectively utilized. In addition, any decrease in the reliability of various signals transmission when a failure of the main-loop occurs, can be prevented.
