  • Patent number: 11962904
    Abstract: A first image blur correction device includes an imaging-element holding-member to which an imaging-element is fixed, a housing that supports the imaging-element holding-member to be movable in a direction X perpendicular to an optical axis of a lens device, and a first drive mechanism that generates thrust of moving the imaging-element holding-member in the direction X. The first drive mechanism includes a first magnet that is fixed to the housing and in which a direction connecting both magnetic poles is parallel to the direction X, and a first coil that is fixed to the imaging-element holding-member to face the first magnet. In a state where the imaging-element holding-member is at a reference position where the optical axis of the lens device coincides with a center of the imaging-element, a position of a first magnet center in the direction X and a first coil central axis deviate from each other.

  • Patent number: 7210456
    Abstract: An internal combustion engine (1) generates power by burning an air-fuel mixture in a combustion chamber (3). The internal combustion engine (1) is provided with an in-cylinder pressure sensor (15) and an ECU (20). The ECU 20 calculates at two predetermined points control parameters each of which is a product of an in-cylinder pressure detected by the in-cylinder pressure sensor (15) and a value obtained by exponentiating an in-cylinder volume at the time of detecting the in-cylinder pressure by a predetermined index number, as well as determines a misfire condition in the combustion chamber (3) based on the difference component in the control parameters between the two predetermined points.

  • Patent number: 7207316
    Abstract: An internal combustion engine (1) generates power by burning a mixture of fuel and air in each combustion chamber 3. The internal combustion engine 1 is provided with an in-cylinder pressure sensor (15) disposed in each combustion chamber (3) and an ECU (20). The ECU (20) calculates control parameters at two predetermined points, each of which is a product of an in-cylinder pressure detected by the in-cylinder pressure sensor (15) and a value obtained by exponentiating an in-cylinder volume at the timing of detecting the in-cylinder pressure with predetermined index, as well as calculates a correction value of a fuel injection quantity based upon a difference in the control parameter between the two predetermined points. One of the two predetermined points is set after an intake valve (Vi) opens and before an ignition plug (7) ignites, and the other is set after the ignition plug (7) ignites and before an exhaust valve (Ve) opens.
