Patent number: 9093938Abstract: Provided are a compact and low-cost motor driver circuit capable of achieving an appropriate brake time and restraining heat generated by a regenerative resistance within a specific temperature range without employing a regenerative resistance having a greater capacity, a heat sink, or a FAN generating a larger volume of air, and a vacuum pump having the motor driver circuit. Regenerative current is controlled so that a speed characteristic gradually approaches inclination “a” from inclination “b” depending on the motor speed in the initial stage of regeneration. In addition, a limit is set not to pass further current when the regenerative current reaches a maximum brake current value Iset—brake—max. As stated above, when the motor is braked, control is performed so that the initial brake current value at the maximum rated speed is set low and the brake current is increased as the rotational speed decelerates.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2009Date of Patent: July 28, 2015Assignees: Edwards Japan Limited, Societe de Mecanique MagnetiqueInventors: Shinichi Nomura, Ulrich Schroder

Patent number: 8740009Abstract: A tank that includes layers of fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) formed by alternately winding hoop and helical bundles of fiber over its outer surface. The winding produces stepped portions, i.e. unevenness, in a helical layer positioned as the innermost layer. Such unevenness affects an outer layer (especially a hoop layer) directly adjacent to the innermost helical layer and lowers fatigue strength of the adjacent outer layer. In order to prevent this fatigue strength decrease, the bundle of fiber used for the innermost helical layer has a smaller sectional area than the bundles used for the outer layers. Consequently, decreasing the sectional area of the innermost helical bundle decreases the stepped portions, which, in turn, decreases the transfer of unevenness to the outer layer (especially a hoop layer) directly adjacent to the helical layer. As a result, fatigue strength of the adjacent outer layer (especially a hoop layer) increases.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2009Date of Patent: June 3, 2014Assignee: Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Riki Otsuka, Motohiro Mizuno, Hirokazu Otsubo, Shinichi Nomura
