    摘要: An object detection apparatus is arranged to detect the distance to the object and includes: a transceiver repeatedly transmitting a wave as an ultrasonic wave and receives a reflection wave of the transmission wave; a transmission controller controlling the transceiver to transmit the transmission wave; a distance calculator calculating a distance to the object, based on a time interval from a moment when the transceiver transmits the wave to a moment when the reflection wave is received; and a transmission timing controller controlling timing at which the transmission controller controls the transmission wave to be transmitted. Moreover, the transmission timing controller inserts at least one type of temporary waiting time between a transmission/reception period in which the transceiver transmits the transmission wave and receives the reflection wave and a next transmission/reception period, when a predetermined crosstalk identification condition is established based on the distance to the object.

    摘要: A valve timing controller includes a driving rotor, a driven rotor, a planetary rotor, a planetary carrier, and an elastic component to produce a restoring force biasing the planetary rotor to an eccentric side such that the driving rotor is inclined to the driven rotor. The driving rotor has an inclination angle θ1 relative to the driven rotor in a first inclination state where the driving rotor is in contact with the driven rotor on both sides in the axial direction. The inclination angle θ1 is smaller than an inclination angle θ2 in a second inclination state where the driving rotor is in contact with the driven rotor on both sides in the radial direction, and is smaller than an inclination angle θ3 in a third inclination state where the driving rotor is in contact with the camshaft on both sides in the radial direction.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a flow rate measuring device for measuring a flow rate of a main flow flowing through a duct. The flow rate measuring device includes a bypass passage, a blow rate sensor, and a measurement body. The measurement body includes a measurement flow inlet and a cylindrical portion. The measurement flow inlet is open toward an upstream side of the duct. The measurement flow outlet is open toward a downstream side of the duct. The cylindrical portion is disposed to cover the measurement flow outlet. The cylindrical portion includes an outer circumferential surface, which guides the main flow, and an inner circumferential surface, which guides the measurement flow. The cylindrical portion includes a waveform portion that is formed in an edge side of an opening of the cylindrical. The waveform portion has a shape that divides the main flow guided by the cylindrical portion into a plurality of main flows and that divides the measurement flow guided by the cylindrical portion into a plurality of measurement flows.

    摘要: A noise filter is assembled to an electric power conversion device and has a metal housing casing and two capacitors connected to an external terminal of the device through which an electric power conversion circuit is connected to an external device. The two capacitors, the housing casing and the external terminal make a current loop. A magnetic flux of an alternating magnetic field generated in a part of the electric power conversion circuit penetrates in a first area and a second area formed in the current loop. A first induced noise current is induced in the current loop when the magnetic flux of the generated magnetic field penetrates in the first area. A second induced noise current is induced in the current loop when the magnetic flux penetrates in the second area so that the first induced noise current flows in a reverse direction to the second induced noise current.
