  • Patent number: 10889284
    Abstract: An electric vehicle allows a user to experience changes in acceleration g-force, as with a conventional power plant, including: a transmission that sets a gearshift position based on a gearshift position command value to be supplied, and reduces a rotation speed of a motor with the gear ratio based on the gearshift position to rotationally drive wheels; a user operation unit that outputs the gearshift position command value and a speed control amount, based on user operation; and a controller that sets a DC voltage command value or an AC voltage command value to an operation-based value corresponding to the gearshift position and the speed control amount, and, on the condition that operation on the user operation unit satisfies a predetermined condition, sets the DC voltage command value or the AC voltage command value to a value higher than the operation-based value for causing a change in acceleration.

  • Patent number: 9404555
    Abstract: A centrifugal pendulum damping device includes a support body provided with a pair of first curved tracks and fixed to a rotating shaft, inertial masses provided with a pair of second curved tracks and supported on an outer peripheral part of the support body, and pins rollably fitted in a section where a first and second curved track intersect each other. Since the shapes of the pair of first curved tracks are different from each other and the shapes of the pair of second curved tracks are different from each other, the inertial mass moves rotationally and translationally in the peripheral direction of the support body, which improves damping low frequency vibration performance. Since the inertial mass moves rotationally, it is less likely to extend outside the region of the support body.
