  • Patent number: 11556602
    Abstract: The present invention provides a personal-use search engine and a web crawler equipped with a login function. The present invention can construct and provide a search system and a database searchable and manageable by a user including a researcher or the like, by the user using a personal-use web crawler. After login with one-click SNS login function or login with e-mail, the user adds, to a database, sites crawled by a web crawler on a server accessible from a web browser. Accordingly, the user can obtain a satisfying search result from among data that is widely collected regarding a specific topic and can discover new valuable information in the data.

  • Patent number: 10295001
    Abstract: A control device of a lock-up clutch according to the disclosure is mounted on a vehicle including an engine, a transmission, a fluid-type power transmitting device interposed between the engine and the transmission, and the lock-up clutch provided on the fluid-type power transmitting device. The control device includes: a controller configured to slip-engage the lock-up clutch when accelerator opening of the vehicle changes in an accelerating direction, and configured to make a slip-engagement amount larger when a state of the fluid-type power transmitting device when the accelerator opening of the vehicle changes in the accelerating direction is a driven state than the slip-engagement amount when the state of the fluid-type power transmitting device is a driving state.

  • Patent number: 9810320
    Abstract: A vehicle control system is provided to improve a response and an acceleration feel of a vehicle having a continuously variable transmission. The vehicle control system is configured to control an output power of a prime mover and a speed ratio of a transmission in such a manner that an actual driving force is increased stepwise to the required driving force to be achieved by a kick-downshifting so as to temporarily hold an increase in an acceleration during execution of the kick-downshifting.
