  • Patent number: 11187318
    Abstract: A vehicle includes an engine; a continuously variable transmission; an output clutch disposed between the continuously variable transmission and the drive wheel; a drive motor coupled between the output clutch and the drive wheel; a traveling mode controller; and a speed ratio controller. In a case where required driving power based on an accelerator position is less than a first threshold, the traveling mode controller switches a traveling mode to a first traveling mode. In a case where the required driving power is equal to or greater than the first threshold, the traveling mode controller switches the traveling mode to a second traveling mode. In a case where the required driving power is less than the first threshold and equal to or greater than a second threshold, the speed ratio controller causes a speed ratio of the continuously variable transmission to change depending on a vehicle speed.

  • Publication number: 20210276132
    Abstract: A laser processing device includes a laser irradiation unit that performs processing on a workpiece by using a laser while scanning a workpiece surface to form a kerf, jet nozzles that respectively form jet flows flowing toward a bottom surface of the kerf on front and rear sides in a scanning direction of the laser, and an intake part that sucks, above injection ports of the jet nozzles, a gas in a region surrounded by the jet flows from the front and rear sides. In a state in which a certain region of the kerf is isolated by the jet flows, the gas is sucked from this region by the intake part. As a result, a suction force by the intake part can reach the bottom surface of the kerf.

  • Patent number: 11096618
    Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to accurately identify an appearance position of a desired waveform pattern. A signal feature extraction apparatus extracts a feature peak value of a waveform pattern from an output signal of a feature extraction filter that extracts a waveform pattern of an input signal. A local maximum value detection part 1 stores a time index and a value of the output signal when an absolute value of the output signal is equal to or more than a predetermined threshold value and takes a local maximum value.
