Publication number: 20240068422Abstract: An upstream integrated value is an integrated value of a difference obtained by subtracting an upstream gas temperature at a starting point in time of integration from the upstream gas temperature after starting of the internal combustion engine. A downstream integrated value is an integrated value of a difference obtained by subtracting a downstream gas temperature at the starting point in time of the integration from the downstream gas temperature after the starting of the internal combustion engine. An anomaly diagnosing process obtains an anomaly determination result indicating that the exhaust purification device is in a removed state when a deviation between the upstream integrated value and the downstream integrated value is smaller than a reference level. The determination threshold is higher than a dew point.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Yusuke JOH, Tomoyuki TSUJI, Yuki IKEJIRI, Masashi HAKARIYA, Makoto YAMAZAKI, Yoshikazu ASAMI, Hisao KIYONO, Tatsuaki ARISAWA, Yoshifumi MATSUDA, Tsubasa SUGANO

Publication number: 20180292332Abstract: Frame data of tomographic planes that are parallel in the scan direction and between an X-ray tube and an X-ray detecting unit is generated based on detected frame data. The generation of frame data is based on the fan-shaped spreading of an X-ray beam and the differences in position in a height direction between the tomographic planes from a detection surface. Tomographic images are respectively generated from the frame data of the tomographic planes based on laminography technique. Edge information based on the changes in pixel values in each tomographic image is calculated for each pixel. A three-dimensional distribution of the edge information is generated and the edge information is searched in a direction passing through the tomographic planes and pixels indicating a maximum value in the edge information are detected. Only pixels in the tomographic images that positionally correspond to detected pixels are combined into a single composite image.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2018Publication date: October 11, 2018Inventors: Tsutomu Yamakawa, Shuichiro Yamamoto, Masashi Yamazaki
