A hologram element includes an optically transparent base plate having first and second opposite surfaces. A film of a diffraction grating is provided on the first surface of the base plate. A nonreflective member is provided on the second surface of the base plate via a dipping process. The nonreflective member includes one of a film including SiO.sub.2 particles and a film of MgF.sub.2. It is preferable that the SiO.sub.2 particles have diameters of 10-150 nm. The diffraction grating film includes, for example, one of a gelatine film, a photopolymer film, and a photoresist film. The base plate includes, for example, a flexible resin film. It is preferable that the flexible resin film is made of a material selected from the group consisting of amorphous polyolefine, polycarbonate (PC), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), and perfluoroalkoxypolyethylene (PFA).
摘要:
Reverse current is supplied from a battery to armature coils of a three-phase synchronous power generator, via semiconductor switching devices of a three-phase full-wave rectifier, by controlling the switches. By this control, the reverse current will reduce waveform distortion of armature current of each phase so as to reduce the electromagnetic force pulsation and, therefore, reduce vibration or noise.

A liquid pump has a DC motor and a pump in a cylindrical casing. A pair of brushes are slidably contacted with a commutator of an armature while being biased by springs. The specific resistance of the positive brush is lower than the specific resistance of the negative brush to enable the voltage drop at the brushes to be decreased and motor efficiency to be increased without increasing commutator wearing speed. The biasing force provided by the spring biasing the positive brush is lower than the biasing force provided by the spring biasing the negative brush.

In a heater control of an oxygen sensor, a heater control circuit is rendered fully conductive at 100% duty initially to supply full power to a heater until the resistance value of the heater reaches a predetermined initial value corresponding to a predetermined temperature. Then, the duty of the heater control circuit is feedback controlled so that the heater temperature becomes a target value until the internal resistance of the oxygen sensor reaches a target temperature, and further, after the internal resistance of the oxygen sensor S reaches the target temperature, the duty of the heater control circuit is feedback controlled so that the element temperature of the sensor becomes a target value.

A lock-up clutch control method controls a torque converter comprising an input shaft through which a rotating force from an engine is input, an output shaft which outputs a driving force to the side of driving wheels and a lock-up clutch which operates in response to a hydraulic pressure. A control element controls an engaging pressure of the lock-up clutch by way of the hydraulic pressure. The engaging force of the clutch is controlled in accordance with calculated results of a target following up section for calculating a controlled variable so that a slip follows up a target slip and a control system stabilizing section for calculating the controlled variable so that the disturbance applied to the control system is compensated. Thereby, a stable control may be realized without receiving any effect of the disturbance. The disturbance may be estimated and learned for more accurate control.

A power-generating voltage outputted from a vehicle synchronous power generator is adjusted to a first voltage for charging a battery under the control of a field current. Further, a leading phase current that leads a phase voltage is supplied to each of multiple armature windings and the field current is supplied to the field winding, whereby the power-generating voltage can be adjusted to a second voltage higher than the first power-generating voltage. Owing to the above construction, a voltage higher than the normal voltage can be generated by supplying each leading phase current from the vehicle synchronous power generator; hence power can be supplied to a high-voltage load based on the generated high voltage.

The insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) integrates the anti-excess voltage protection function and a drain voltage fixing function. When a voltage is applied across the drain electrode and the source electrode of the IGBT, a depletion zone propagates from a p-n junction between a p base layer and a n.sup.- drain layer toward inside of the n.sup.- drain layer. A critical electric field is also established, causing generation of a great number of electron-hole pairs due to impact ionization of carriers in or near the n.sup.- drain layer. Conduction exist between the drain electrode and the source electrode, at an applied voltage lower than a drain-source voltage at which the depletion region reaches a p.sup.+ drain layer through the n.sup.- drain layer, the applied voltage being equal to or lower than a critical voltage that causes generation of a great number of electron-hole pairs due to impact ionization of carriers in or near the n.sup.- drain layer below a p-n junction between a p-type guard ring and the n.sup.- drain layer.

A fuel supply apparatus includes a flow control valve, a housing, a movable portion, a compression coil spring and a coil constructed integrally with a fuel pump (or separately from the fuel pump). The movable portion may be made of magnetic material and attracted to the fuel downstream side against the spring force of the compression coil spring by an electromagnetic attracting force generated by an electric current supplied to the coil. A fuel drain opening can be created by aligning a first communication passage to release an excess part of the fuel passing through fuel passages back to the fuel tank through the drain passage in accordance with an engine operation condition.
