摘要:
A vehicle power generation control apparatus has a power supply circuit, a rotation detecting circuit, an exciting current detecting circuit, a torque detecting/maximum exciting current determining circuit, and an exciting current control circuit. The rotation detecting circuit detects a rotation speed of a generator (or vehicle alternator) and the exciting current detecting circuit detects an exciting current flowing through an exciting winding of the generator. The torque detecting/maximum exciting current determining circuit calculates a power generation torque of the generator based on the output voltage, the exciting current, the rotation speed, and calculates an inertia torque of the generator based on a change rate of the rotation speed. The exciting current control circuit suppresses the exciting current flowing through the exciting winding so that a change rate of a total sum of the generation torque and the inertia torque does not exceed a predetermined value, for example, during the idling condition.

In a vehicle generator control which detects an abnormal operating condition of a generator of a vehicle, and includes a transistor which drives a charging lamp to emit a warning indication when such a condition is detected, with the value of a quantity indicative of the flow of current through the charging lamp drive transistor being compared with a reference value, and with the transistor being set in a non-conducting state if the reference value is exceeded, a succession of respectively decreasing reference values is periodically generated. A timing of an initial flow of current through the charging lamp is controlled to be synchronized with the start of such a succession, so that the peak value of an initial surge current which flows through the charging lamp drive transistor is compared with the highest reference value. Complete protection can thereby be established for the charging lamp drive transistor against a flow of short-circuit current which would exceed any of the reference values.

A control device for a vehicle alternator having a field coil, and an auxiliary permanent magnet. The control device includes voltage regulator, a generation-condition detecting circuit having a frequency sensor and a comparator for comparing a frequency of the output voltage with a reference value and a power source circuit for supplying electric power to the generation-condition detecting circuit when the output voltage becomes equal to or higher than a voltage that is generated without the field current. The generation-condition detecting circuit allows the voltage regulator to supply the field coil with controlled electric current only when the frequency of the output voltage is higher than the reference value.

An inductive load driving apparatus for controlling current supplied from a battery to an inductor such as a generator field coil is composed of a first N-channel MOSFET switching element connected between a high-side terminal of the inductor and a high-side terminal of the battery, a second N-channel MOSFET switching element connected in parallel with the inductive load and a protection circuit having a back-flow current detecting element turning off the second N-channel MOSFET switching element when the inductor does not generate back-flow current. The second N-channel MOSFET switching element is turned on when the first N-channel MOSFET switching element is turned off and turned off when the first switching element is turned on. The first and second N-channel MOSFET switching elements are disposed integrally with each other on a semiconductor chip.

A generation control apparatus for vehicles is provided, in which a drastic change in the drive torque of a generator, which occurs with the cancellation of gradual excitation immediately after starting an internal combustion engine, can be suppressed to prevent stoppage of the internal combustion engine. The generation control apparatus includes an engine-start detection circuit, a gradual excitation circuit, a comparator for gradual-excitation cancellation, and a masking circuit for gradual-excitation cancellation. After detecting an engine start by the engine-start detection circuit, an instruction for gradual-excitation cancellation is released during an initial gradual excitation performed by a gradual excitation circuit, based on an output from the masking circuit for gradual-excitation cancellation. The drastic change in the drive torque occurring with the cancellation of the gradual excitation immediately after the engine start, can thus be suppressed, thereby preventing the engine stop.

The present invention provides, as one aspect, an apparatus for controlling electric power generation for vehicles, which controls energization of an excitation winding of a generator driven by an internal-combustion engine controlled by a controller to control output voltage of the generator. The apparatus includes a restraining unit that restrains electric power generation of the generator in response to a given signal, and a releasing unit the releases the restraint by the restraining unit when generated voltage of the generator is equal to or less than a first predetermined value. The apparatus further includes a detecting unit that detects starting of the internal-combustion engine, a measuring unit that measures elapsed time from the detection of the starting by the detecting unit, and a prohibiting unit that prohibits the release of the restraint by the releasing unit until a predetermined time is measured by the measuring unit.

An automatic document feeder includes a document stacker for holding documents, a first conveyer for feeding the documents one sheet by one sheet to a platen glass for reading an image on a first side of the conveyed document, a second conveyor for conveying the conveyed document so that the conveyed document is turned over and conveyed to the platen glass again to read an image on the second side, and a discharger for discharging the conveyed document from the platen glass and returning the conveyed document to the document stacker. A third conveyer, located over the platen glass, conveys the conveyed document from at least one of the first conveyor and the second conveyer to the platen glass and conveys the conveyed document from the platen glass to at least one of the first conveyer, the second conveyer, and the discharger. A controller controls the movement of the conveyed document by the first, second, and third conveyers and the discharger, and a next conveyed document following the conveyed document is set to a waiting position on the platen glass when a second circulation is executed by the controller following a first circulation. The next conveyed document is then conveyed to the platen glass through the second conveyer after the second side of the conveyed document is read.
