Publication number: 20080315814Abstract: When a motor temperature exceeds a threshold value, a torque control unit reduces a torque control value for a motor generator. A torque limitation control unit determines from torque control value and vehicular speed whether limiting a torque by the torque control unit should be alleviated, and if so the torque limitation control unit activates a signal for a predetermined period of time. When the signal is activated, the torque control unit stops reducing the torque control value and fixes the torque control value to be constant.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 3, 2007Publication date: December 25, 2008Inventors: Keiji Takizawa, Hiroshi Aihara

Patent number: 4354176Abstract: An analog input signal to be converted is subjected to first integration by an integrator and a reference signal opposite in polarity to the input analog signal is subjected to second integration by the integrator. After the integrator output has passed a predetermined level, a reference signal opposite in polarity to the abovesaid reference signal is subjected to third integration by the integrator for a predetermined period of time and then a reference signal of the same polarity as that in the second integration is subjected to fourth integration by the integrator at a rate of an integral fraction of the integration rate in the second integration. In the second integration, clock pulses are counted by a counter but the counting is interrupted for a period of time substantially twice as long as the third integration period and, in the fourth integration, the counting is performed at a counting stage of one lower order.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 1980Date of Patent: October 12, 1982Assignee: Takeda Riken Kogyo KabushikikaishaInventor: Hiroshi Aihara
