Abstract: A power transmission includes first and second clutches for switching a transmission path for a driving force. A work vehicle includes a clutch controlling unit. When a speed ratio parameter transitions within a predetermined first range including a mode switching threshold after the speed ratio parameter reaches the mode switching threshold and then the transmission path is switched from a first mode to a second mode, the clutch controlling unit is configured to output a clutch command signal for disengaging the first clutch and output a clutch command signal for engaging the second clutch to keep setting the transmission path in the second mode even when the speed ratio parameter again reaches the mode switching threshold.

Abstract: A power transmission includes first and second clutches for switching a transmission path for a driving force therein. A clutch controlling unit provided for a work vehicle is configured to switch the transmission path from one to the other of first and second modes when a speed ratio parameter reaches a mode switching threshold. The clutch controlling unit is configured to keep setting the transmission path in the other mode even when the speed ratio parameter again reaches the mode switching threshold until a switching prohibition period having a predetermined initial value expires as long as a period of time elapsed after mode switching is included in the switching prohibition period. A trigger detecting unit provided for the work vehicle is configured to make the switching prohibition period expire when detecting a predetermined operation in the switching prohibition period.

Abstract: When a clutch is in the disengaged state, the predicted engagement time determining unit determines a predicted engagement time. The predicted engagement time is the predicted value for the time required from the beginning of the clutch engagement until engagement is complete. The speed ratio parameter estimating unit determines an estimated value for a speed ratio parameter after the elapse of the predicted engagement time from the current point in time. When the estimated value for the speed ratio parameter reaches a mode-switching threshold value, a clutch control unit outputs a clutch command signal for causing the clutch to engage.

Abstract: A vehicle generally includes a motor that drives wheels of the vehicle, a high voltage battery that supplies electric power to the motor, and an exhaust system that exhausts a gas generated by the high voltage battery from the vehicle. The exhaust system for a battery includes an exhaust fan that exhausts the gas generated by the high voltage battery, a control unit that controls operation of the exhaust fan, and a collision detection unit that detects a collision of the vehicle. The control unit has a structure that operates the exhaust fan when the collision detection unit detects a collision of a vehicle.

Abstract: A rotating electric machine includes an inner-circumferential-side shaft, an outer-circumferential-side shaft, and a rotor. The rotor is secured to the outer-circumferential-side shaft. The inner-circumferential-side shaft is rotatably supported by a bearing that is provided between a gear and the rotor. An outer circumference of the inner-circumferential-side shaft and an inner circumference of the outer-circumferential-side shaft are spline-fitted to each other at a spline-fitted portion. The outer-circumferential-side shaft has a loosely fitted portion that is provided on the inner circumference of the outer-circumferential-side shaft and that is fitted on the outer circumference of the inner-circumferential-side shaft with a first gap having a predetermined length provided between the loosely fitted portion and the outer circumference of the inner-circumferential-side shaft.

Abstract: A control device for a vehicle includes a motor configured to drive wheels, a high-voltage battery configured to supply electric power to the motor, and a battery charger configured to charge the high-voltage battery by using a power supply outside the vehicle. The control device further includes a failure detection unit configured to detect a specific failure, and a drive prohibition unit configured to prohibit driving of the vehicle. The drive prohibition unit prohibits the driving of the vehicle when the failure is detected by the failure detection unit in an initial check before start of driving of the vehicle and when the high-voltage battery is charged by using the power source outside the vehicle immediately before the initial check.

Abstract: A nut member 5 for moving forward and rearward by rotating a feed screw 4 by a stepping motor 28 and a transfer table 7 for transferring a workpiece W are elastically connected by a spring means 24 in transferring of the workpiece to thereby allow the nut member 5 to overrun by flection of the spring means 24, to allow the stepping motor 28 to rotate excessively in a cushioned manner, and to obtain a thrust for pushing the workpiece against an object after the transfer table 7 reaches the transfer end of the workpiece.

Abstract: Each of end blocks is provided with a first pressure fluid communicating passage for communication between a first pressure fluid inlet/outlet port and a third pressure fluid inlet/outlet port, a second pressure fluid inlet/outlet port, and a second pressure fluid communicating passage which communicates with a second pressure fluid passage and a first pressure fluid passage communicating with a driving section. A passage of a sensor attachment rail communicates with the third pressure fluid inlet/outlet port and the second pressure fluid passage or the second pressure fluid passage and the third pressure fluid inlet/outlet port by the aid of piping studs.

Abstract: A linear actuator comprises a mobile which is provided substantially perpendicularly to a longitudinal axis of a ball screw shaft with its first side portion connected to a screw guide member and with its second side portion slidably fitted to a slider, while movably holding a ball screw nut engaged with the ball screw shaft by the aid of the screw guide member which is finely movable in a recess of the slider allowed to ride over a guide rail in a bridging manner.
