Patent number: 11613304Abstract: A plurality of power supply circuits include a second power supply circuit for a CPU included in a control unit and a first power supply circuit for another circuit. An output voltage from the first power supply circuit is higher than an output voltage from the second power supply circuit. A range of input voltage is divided into three levels of voltage sub-ranges in accordance with a requirements specification. When the input voltage falls within a lower level voltage sub-range, both of an output function of the first power supply circuit and an output function of the second power supply circuit are stopped. When the input voltage falls within an intermediate level voltage sub-range, the output function of the first power supply circuit is stopped. When the input voltage falls within an upper level voltage sub-range, all circuits are controlled so as to operate.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2016Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventor: Hajime Iida

Patent number: 10196085Abstract: In an electric power steering device assisted by a brushless motor, an induced voltage from a brushless motor is detected when a main power supply is off. The motor is determined to be in a high rpm state when the induced voltage is in a first transient state from a voltage?a high rpm detection threshold Th1 to a voltage?Th1, thereby setting an intermittent excitation cycle of a revolution angle sensor connected to the motor to a short cycle. The motor is determined to be in a low rpm state when the induced voltage becomes a voltage?a high rpm detection threshold Th2 after a wait period corresponding to an electrical angle between peaks or valleys of an output voltage has elapsed in a second transient state from a voltage?Th1 to a voltage?Th2, thereby setting the cycle to a long cycle.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2015Date of Patent: February 5, 2019Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Hajime Iida, Hiroshi Gokan, Kenji Ogawa

Patent number: 6713032Abstract: A catalyst for removing carbon monoxide (CO) in a hydrogen rich gas according to a water gas shift reaction is provided, which is characterized in that platinum and rhenium are supported on rutile titania as a support. This catalyst provides a high CO conversion at a relatively low reaction temperature between 200° C. and 300° C. and is excellent in cost/performance due to a reduction in amount of supported platinum. It is preferred that a weight ratio of an amount of supported platinum to an amount of supported rhenium is in a range of 3:1 to 1:1, and particularly 3:2. In addition, when the catalyst is produced by supporting rhenium first and then platinum on the support, the catalyst performance can be remarkably improved.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2002Date of Patent: March 30, 2004Assignees: Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd.Inventors: Manabu Mizobuchi, Kensaku Kinugawa, Noboru Hashimoto, Akira Igarashi, Hajime Iida
