摘要:
A vibration damping device includes first and second accelerometers which are used to determine the relative displacement between a body and a base between which the device is operatively connected. The output of one of the accelerometers is also monitored in a manner to determine the frequency of the vibration. This data is processed in a manner to ascertain the timing when the phases of a vertical spring input (produced by the compression of an elastomeric member which defines the main spring of the damper) and an expansion spring input (produced the displacement of rheopetic fluid between first and second variable volume chamber and the associated expansion characeristics of the members defining the same) are reversed. Using this data and the vibration frequency data the timing with which a voltage should be applied to electrodes disposed in an orifice interposed between the first and second chambers to increase the viscosity of the rheopetic fluid and increase the flow resistance of the orifice. The device further includes a perforate suspended mass which is tuned in a manner to act as a dynamic damper.
摘要:
A vibration damper includes first and second electrode bodies which are operatively connected with a vibrating body and a base, respectively and which are immersed in a rheopetic fluid. The relative velocity and displacement between the body and the base are determined and used to control the voltage applied across the electrode bodies in manner wherein when the relative displacement and velocity are out of phase, a high voltage is applied to electrodes to induce a high damping force and as the period wherein the two parameters go in phase is approchaed, the voltage is continuously reduced to reduce the damping force.

An ignition timing adjusting apparatus of an internal combustion engine is provided so as to suppress the vibration of the body of a vehicle when it is accelerated. This is achieved by obtaining a first ignition timing compensation magnitude determined on the basis of the revolution speed fluctuation of the internal combustion engine and a second ignition timing compensation magnitude determined on the basis of the engine load condition, and by compensating a basic ignition timing in accordance with the first and second ignition timing compensation magnitude when the vehicle is accelerated.

A steering column assembly for a motor vehicle having a collision sensor which provides a collision signal in the event of a collision. It comprises a telescopic steering rod having a lower part and an upper part carrying a steering wheel, and means for normally stopping the upper part axial movement relative to the lower part in its normally operative position and for driving the upper part to a retracted safe position in the direction toward the lower part upon receipt of the collision signal.
摘要:
A method for operating a shaft furnace which comprises charging the furnace with an iron source having a low degree of metallization and thus requiring reduction, an iron source having a high degree of metallization and thus requiring nothing but melting, and a solid fuel, and blowing an oxygen-containing gas at ordinary or higher temperature up to 600.degree. C. into the furnace through tuyeres to reduce and melt the iron sources. The optimal values of .eta.co (gas utilization factor) are determined from the average degree of metallization of the iron sources, and the shaft furnace is controlled so that the effluent gas from the furnace has the optimal .eta.co values. The control is accomplished by regulating the height of the charge, regulating the height of the coke bed, etc., using multistage tuyeres, and radially partitioning the charge. Thus, the iron sources can be efficiently reduced and melted at a low fuel ratio.
