The printer (1) includes a control unit (20) including a function reproducing multiple tones by outputting energization data that is dot control data in multiple cycles in line units to a head unit (10) including a plurality of dot generating elements disposed in a line. The control unit (20) includes: a thermal head control circuit (60) supplying the energization data of each cycle and a latch signal for the energization data of each cycle to the head unit (10); and a mask circuit (70) operable when the energization data of the current cycle is the same as the energization data of the previous cycle, to erase the current energization data and the signal for latching to be supplied to the head unit (10).
摘要:
A power storage device has a NaS battery for storing electric power, a Hall current detector for measuring charge/discharge current value I of the NaS battery, a bidirectional converter for converting electric power between a direct current and an alternating current bidirectionally, and a controller for controlling the power storage device. The controller integrates the charge/discharge current value I of the NaS battery and calculates the calculated value of the discharge capacity in the NaS battery. The controller calculates estimated error Er(t2) of the calculated value of the discharge capacity, specifies NaS battery 1004 that requires the correction of the calculated value of the discharge capacity, charges/discharges the NaS battery to a depth of discharge at which the calculated value of the discharge capacity is corrected, and corrects the calculated value of the discharge capacity in the charged/discharged NaS battery.

摘要:
Provided are a control apparatus for a secondary battery and a control method for a secondary battery, which suppress decreases in released power and absorbed power. When a power storage device is requested to release power, a limit for power supply to a power consuming body is set relatively higher, and when the power storage device is requested to absorb power, the limit for power supply to the power consuming body is set relatively lower. When the power storage device is requested to release power, a command value PD for released power is calculated by adding supplied power PS to a requested value PE for released power. When the power storage device is requested to absorb power, a command value PC for charged power is calculated by subtracting the supplied power PS from a requested value PA for absorbed power.
摘要:
There is provided, in one aspect of the present description, an engine. In one example, the engine comprises a cylinder block, a cylinder head, a sheet metal gasket interposed between the block and the head, a first projection projecting outwardly and laterally from a side portion of the block, and a second projection projecting outwardly and laterally from a side portion of the head, the first projection and the second projection facing each other along a coupling surface between the block and the head. The engine further comprises an extension extending from a main body of the sheet metal gasket and located between the first projection and the second projection, and a resilient portion which is provided in the extension, formed resiliently in a direction perpendicular to the coupling surface, and compressed between the first projection and the second projection when the head is fastened on the block.
