  • Apparatus and method for estimating temperature of motor using hall sensor
    Patent number: 9829392
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an apparatus and method for estimating a temperature of a motor using a Hall sensor. The method includes detecting, at a digital Hall sensor, a position of a rotor included in a motor and outputting an on signal in an operating period and an off signal in a release period according to a relative position of the rotor, calculating, at a temperature determining module, a difference between duration of the operating period and duration of the release period according to an output waveform of the digital Hall sensor, and then determining, at the temperature determining module, a temperature of the motor with reference to a temperature corresponding to the duration difference. Accordingly, it is possible to estimate the internal temperature of a motor without installing a temperature sensor in the motor, to maintain a small size of the motor, and to reduce production costs.

  • Pharmaceutical compositions comprising inhibitors of zinc-ZIP8-MTF1 as active ingredients for preventing or treating a joint disease
    Patent number: 9526782
    Abstract: The present invention relates to identification of Zinc-ZIP8-MTF1 axis that plays an important role to OA (osteoarthritis) pathogenesis process and a novel use thereof. According to the present invention, ZIP8 and MTF1 of the present invention increase in the expression in joint disease induced cells or cartilage tissue, and induce the expression of various matrix-degrading enzymes (e.g., MMP-3, MMP-9, MMP-12, MMP-13 and ADAMTS-5 etc.). In addition, when the expression of ZIP8 or MTF1 is inhibited in cells or tissues of animals (e.g., human, mouse), OA pathogenesis is inhibited. Therefore, the ZIP8 and MTF1 of the present invention may be applied to the diagnosis or prognosis of joint diseases, and may be used for the development of therapeutics for joint diseases using these.
