Abstract:
A belt continuously-variable transmission control apparatus includes: a belt continuously-variable transmission including; a primary pulley arranged to receive a torque from a driving source; a secondary pulley arranged to output the torque to driving wheels; a belt wound around the primary pulley and the secondary pulley; a hydraulic pressure control section configured to control a hydraulic pressure of one of the primary pulley and the secondary pulley which is a capacity side, and thereby to bring the belt, the primary pulley and the secondary pulley to a slip state; and a torque control section configured to control the torque of the driving source, and thereby to bring the slip state to a predetermined slip state.
Abstract:
A control apparatus of a driving force in case of belt slipping includes a belt slip control detecting unit adapted to detect that the belt slip control is in execution, a belt contact radius ratio calculating unit adapted to calculate a belt contact radius ratio of the V-belt to the pulleys, and a power source output torque determining unit adapted to determine a target power output torque according to the belt contact radius ratio in execution of the belt slip control in response to signals from the belt slip control detecting unit and the belt contact radius ratio calculating unit.
Abstract:
Provided are devices and methods to minimize drag caused by abrasion powder between clutch plates and to prevent a faulty engagement or release of a dry clutch. A hybrid driving force transmission device is provided, wherein a multi-plate dry clutch is arranged in a sealed space and used for connecting/disconnecting transmission of a driving force is provided with drive plates, driven plates, friction facings, and a housing cover. The drive plates are splined to a clutch hub, and have, in the sections thereof that are splined to the clutch hub, vent holes for channeling the air flowing in the axial direction. The driven plates are splined to a clutch drum. The housing cover has an external air intake hole for drawing external air into the sealed space, and an external air discharge hole for discharging the airflow from the sealed space to the outside.

Abstract:
A hybrid vehicle drive control system is configured to perform engine startup when switching from an electric drive mode to a hybrid drive mode, without creating a sense of output torque loss. In particular, a controller selectively controls a first clutch disposed between the engine and the motor/generator and a second clutch disposed between the motor/generator and a drive wheel to switch between an electric drive mode in which the first clutch is released and the second clutch is engaged, and a hybrid drive mode in which both the first and second clutches are engaged. The controller sets the second torque transfer capacity to a value that is more than zero and less than the target motor/generator torque of the motor/generator when switching from the electric drive mode to the hybrid drive mode and when starting the engine.
Abstract:
A recording apparatus has a paper feeder wherein single sheets of paper can be set, a paper delivery device for transporting paper fed from the paper feeder to a recorder, and a control unit for controlling operation of the paper feeder and the paper delivery device. The control unit has a skew removal execution mode of only the first sheet of paper where the paper tip is bitten into a paper delivery roller forming a part of the paper delivery device and then the paper delivery roller is reversely rotated for ejecting the paper tip for the first sheet of paper at the start of recording and then forward rotating the paper delivery roller for delivering the sheet of paper whose skew is removed to the recorder and delivering the second and later sheets of paper to a record area without executing the skew removal.
Abstract:
A method of configuring a soldering device includes the steps of purchasing (or offering for sale) a soldering device package including a handle, a power cartridge containing an AA battery, a power cartridge containing a lithium ion battery, and a power cartridge containing a nickel-hydride battery; selecting (or instructing a user to select) one of the three power cartridges from the purchased soldering device package for use with the handle to form a soldering device; and inserting the selected power cartridge in the handle to form a soldering device. The selecting step includes selecting one of the three power cartridges based on a specific use of the soldering device and based on soldering performance requirements of the specific use and based on operating times and relative costs of the power cartridges.
Abstract:
[Solving Means] A feeding cassette 1 according to the present invention includes a cassette body 38 capable of holding many recording media P in a stacked state, edge guides 15A and 15B that guide left and right side edges of the recording media P held in the cassette body 38, and a hopper 16 that pushes up the recording media held in the cassette body, wherein the edge guides are provided so as to protrude downward with respect to an inner wall surface of a top face 40 of the cassette body.
Abstract:
A state information acquisition processing program embodied on a computer-readable medium, which when executed on a computer provided for an information processing apparatus, enables the computer to perform predetermined operations, the predetermined operations includes: detecting a change in a state of connections between the information processing apparatus and devices; determining whether communications are available with a target device that is switched, on receiving a state information request command after power on, to a state where state information indicating a state of the target device can be provided; transmitting a state information request command to the target device when a change in the state of connections with the devices is detected and the communication availability determining determines that communications with the target device are available; and acquiring the state information from the target device.
