摘要:
A personal computer of this invention has a battery pack mounting section for detachably receiving battery packs having different current capacities. The personal computer also includes a switch mechanism for detecting whether a battery pack has a high or low capacity. Battery characteristic values consisting of charge and discharge voltage/current characteristics in units of batteries are prestored in a memory in a power control CPU (PC-CPU). The PC-CPU refers to the memory on the basis of capacity data from the switch mechanism and reads out the corresponding battery characteristic data. A power supply circuit performs optimal charge control on the basis of this characteristic data. Two battery packs are prepared. When the PC-CPU detects that the currently used battery pack is in a low-battery state, it selects the other battery pack to supply the operating power to the personal computer. At the same time the PC-CPU performs optimal charge control of the battery in the low-battery state.

A coordinate-control-gain calculation section 61 calculates a coordinate-control final control torque T_C required to properly control the traveling behavior of a vehicle, and determines a coordinate control gain Kg on the basis of the magnitude of this torque T_C. An arbitration-request determination section 62 determines the value of an arbitration request flag FRG_A on the basis of the magnitude of the torque T_C and the value of a flag FRG_L output so as to properly control the traveling behavior of a vehicle. On the basis of the value of the flag FRG_A and the magnitude of the coordinate-control arbitration torque Tr determined by use of the gain Kg, an arbitration section 63 selects the torque T_C or the torque Tr to be output as a post-arbitration control torque T_F. A post-arbitration drive control section 64 supplies to an electric motor a drive current corresponding to the determined torque T_F.

An engine starting apparatus includes a first and a second power supply path extending from a battery to an electric motor to start an engine. An electromagnetic switch has main contacts disposed in the first power supply path. A resistor is disposed in the second power supply path. A motor relay has relay contacts disposed in series with the resistor. A controller delays the time when the main contacts are closed to apply a full voltage of the battery to the motor until a given time lag has elapsed after the relay contacts are closed to supply electric current to the electric motor through the resistor. Specifically, when it is required to apply the full voltage to the motor to run the motor at a rated speed, the current does not pass through the relay contacts, thus resulting in no voltage drop, which ensures the stability in starting the engine.
