  • Patent number: 11371462
    Abstract: The control apparatus for a compression ignition type engine includes a plurality of cylinder inner pressure sensors that detect pressure in each cylinder, and a combustion control unit. The combustion control unit corrects a target fuel injection amount of each cylinder by an injector based on a deviation between a predicted combustion period that is a period from an ignition timing by an ignition plug to a predetermined mass combustion timing and that is obtained based on a preset combustion model, and an actual combustion period that is a period from the ignition timing by the ignition plug to an actual combustion timing and that is obtained based on cylinder inner pressure, such that the period from the ignition timing by the ignition plug to the predetermined mass combustion timing, which is the timing when fuel having a predetermined mass ratio combusts, is equalized in each cylinder.

  • Patent number: 11333153
    Abstract: A vacuum pump includes a regenerative resistor removed from the control apparatus and disposed in the vacuum pump. More specifically, the regenerative resistor is detached from a control board (control apparatus) on which a control circuit is mounted, and disposed in a base of the vacuum pump, and connected to the control board via a wire. Further, a gap is provided between the base of the vacuum pump and the control apparatus. Moreover, a cover (outer covering body) is provided in the regenerative resistor disposed in the base part of the vacuum pump and the wire part. Since the regenerative resistor is provided in the base of the vacuum pump, which has a large heat capacity, a temperature increase of the control apparatus is reduced.

  • Patent number: 10927749
    Abstract: A control device for an engine is provided, which includes a combustion controlling module, and an ignition retard determining module configured to determine whether there is a request for an ignition retard for retarding an ignition timing of an ignition plug. When the controlling module controls the ignition plug and an injector so that the SPCCI combustion is performed and there is not the ignition retard request, the controlling module executes a control in which the entire fuel to be injected in one cycle is injected in an intake stroke and a jump-spark ignition is carried out at a basic ignition timing, and when there is the ignition retard request, the controlling module executes a control in which an injection is performed in an intake stroke, a portion of the entire fuel is injected in a compression stroke, and the ignition timing is retarded from the basic ignition timing.

  • Patent number: 10876540
    Abstract: An electromagnetic rotating apparatus may include an electromagnet winding that consumes power generated during regeneration. A motor voltage monitoring circuit detects that a voltage at a motor driving main circuit is higher than a voltage during normal operation, due to overshoot or the like after arrival at a set speed during deceleration or acceleration of a motor. The motor voltage monitoring circuit transmits a high-voltage detection signal to a braking current adjusting circuit and a magnetic bearing control circuit. Upon receiving the high-voltage detection signal, the braking current adjusting circuit reduces a braking current command value for the motor so as to maintain an excitation voltage for the motor constant or reduce this excitation voltage, and an amplifier control circuit in the magnetic bearing control circuit increases a bias current flowing through an electromagnet winding to increase power consumption.
