  • Patent number: 7006905
    Abstract: Force balance and moment balance associated with thrust of air and water craft equipped with thrust generators are preset in view of non-linear characteristics and dynamic characteristics of thrust generators. A performance index for minimizing thrusts generated by the thrust generators is defined. Using the balance as restricting condition, propeller thrusts of the thrust generators and rudder angles and changing speeds of rudders that minimize the performance index are calculated.

  • Patent number: 6889570
    Abstract: A vehicle transmission system has a gear-type transmission with a plurality of gears and a plurality of claw clutches which transmits a torque between an input shaft of said gear-type transmission and an output shaft of said gear-type transmission. The transmission changes transmission courses by engaging with and/or disengaging from the gears and the claw clutches, and forms another transmission course via a torque controller between the input shaft of the gear-type transmission and the output shaft of said gear-type transmission during a period between a first transmission course and a second transmission course formed by the gears and the claw clutches. A torque capacity of the torque controller is greater than the maximum output shaft torque of the transmission.
