Abstract:
A tire pressure monitoring system controller is provided that comprises a rotational position calculation unit that detects a rotational position for each wheel when a wireless signal including a specific sensor ID has been transmitted; a wheel position determination unit that acquires the rotational position of each wheel a plurality of times and accumulates rotational position data for each wheel, and determines the wheel position corresponding to the rotational position data with the least degree of dispersion among all the rotation position data as the wheel position of a transmitter corresponding to the sensor ID; and a rotational position detection inhibition unit that inhibits the detection of the rotational position of each wheel by the rotational position calculation unit when braking control that controls a wheel cylinder pressure of the wheels is being executed.
Abstract:
A storage rack capable of storing an audio apparatus is provided. The storage rack includes: a top board portion, at least two leg portions, a shelf board portion, and a speaker storage portion. The top board portion supports the audio apparatus. The at least two leg portions hold the top board portion. The shelf board portion is vertically joined to a side surface of the respective leg portions and in parallel with the top board portion with an adjustable distance thereto. The speaker storage portion is arranged under the shelf board portion. The speaker storage portion is arranged at a position having a predetermined distance in the depth direction of the shelf board portion.
Abstract:
A moving course data collection system for use in a large-scale store such as a supermarket or the like in which a portable scanner is provided to customers which allows customers to input article code data for articles in the store customers wish to purchase. The display location of all articles in the store is stored. Thus, every time a customer inputs article code data, the time and an approximation of the customer's position in the store is determined from the article code data input by the customer and the display location of that article in the store. This information is sequentially recorded, thereby collecting data on the customer's moving course through the store.
Abstract:
A regenerative braking system for a car in which when a hydraulic circuit is not operated, effective maximum displacement controlling current and minimum displacement controlling current for a pump/motor in the hydraulic circuit are studied on the basis of a variation of the sensed displacement angle when the maximum permissible current and the minimum operating current previously given to a displacement angle controlling electromagnetic proportional control valve are respectively decreased and increased stepwise. A displacement controlling current per a unit capacity for the control valve is determined.
Abstract:
A tire air pressure monitor device is provided for monitoring air pressure in tires using pressure sensors, which are installed in the tire of each wheel. Each wheel has a transmitter for wirelessly transmitting the air pressure information along with a sensor ID when the wheel is at a predetermined rotation position. A vehicle body has a receiver for receiving the wireless signals. A wheel speed sensor is provided on a vehicle body for each wheel to determine the wheel rotation position. A TPMS control unit acquires the wheels rotation position when a wireless signal containing a certain sensor ID is transmitted. The TPMS control unit accumulates wheel rotation position data, and determines the wheel position corresponding to the wheel rotation position data having the smallest degree of dispersion from among the wheel rotation position data as the wheel position for the transmitter corresponding to the sensor ID.
Abstract:
Provided is a tire air pressure transmission device configured to determine the rotational position of the tire air pressure transmission device based on a gravitational acceleration component of a centrifugal acceleration at the time of transmission of the tire air pressure information and to transmit in a wireless signal and at a prescribed cycle, tire air pressure information and tire air pressure transmission device rotational position information.

Abstract:
A display rack, on which a display apparatus is mounted, is provided. The display rack includes an amplifier, a top board portion, a transparent top board portion, and a display portion. The amplifier amplifies an audio signal input from a signal source of the display apparatus. The top board portion stores the amplifier. The transparent top board portion is formed of a transparent member and arranged above the top board portion. The display portion indicates a status of the amplifier and is arranged under the transparent top board portion with a display surface thereof facing upward.
Abstract:
A powder/granular material feeder is provided which can prevent bridges and rat holes, which makes a hopper less likely to vibrate, and which can be easily cleaned.The powder/granular material feeder includes a hopper 1 for storing powder/granular material, and a screw conveyor 2 provided at the lower end of the hopper 1 for feeding powder/granular material in the hopper 1 to the next step, wherein the hopper 1 is a conical member having a downwardly decreasing diameter, and is made of a soft material, and wherein the powder/granular material feeder further includes rollers 3 and 4 in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the hopper 1, a ring member 5 provided coaxially with the hopper 1 and supporting the rollers 3 and 4, and a motor 8 for rotating the ring member 5. With this arrangement, since the deflected positions of the hopper 1 caused by the contact with the rollers 3 and 4 continuously move in the circumferential direction when the ring member 5 rotates, the powder/granular material in the hopper (1) rotates. As a result, bridges and rat holes are less likely to form.
