Patent number: 7975791Abstract: A hybrid vehicle drive control system has a first clutch interposed between an engine and a motor/generator, a transmission including several gear position clutches arranged between the motor/generator and a drive wheel, and a controller. The controller selectively starts the engine using torque from the first clutch during a drive mode change from an electric drive mode to a hybrid drive mode. When an engine start command and a gear shifting operation occur during a drive mode change, the controller selects the gear position clutch that is a common engaged clutch from among the engaged gear position clutches constituting the vehicle running gears occurring from immediately before starting the engine until immediately after starting the engine as a second clutch to be controlled. Then, the controller executes a slip control of the second clutch when the first clutch is being connected to start the engine during the drive mode change.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2006Date of Patent: July 12, 2011Assignee: Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yuji Nozaki, Kiminori Nakamura

Patent number: 7770678Abstract: A hybrid vehicle drive control system has a first clutch interposed between an engine and a motor/generator, a transmission including several gear position clutches arranged between the motor/generator and a drive wheel, and a controller. The controller selectively starts the engine using torque from the first clutch during a mode drive change from an electric drive mode to a hybrid drive mode. When an engine start command occurs during the drive mode change, the controller selects the engaged gear position clutch that has the maximum torque transfer capacity from the engaged clutches constituting a vehicle running gear occurring during an engine starting process as a second clutch to be controlled. Then the controller executes a slip control of the second clutch when the first clutch is being connected to start the engine during the mode change from the electric drive mode to the hybrid drive mode.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2006Date of Patent: August 10, 2010Assignee: Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yuji Nozaki, Kiminori Nakamura

Patent number: 7286808Abstract: In a broadcast receiving system, a first antenna receives a broadcast signal of a first frequency band and a second antenna receives a signal of a second frequency band different from the first frequency band. A frequency conversion unit converts the signal of the second frequency band into a second signal of the first frequency band. A selection unit selects one of the broadcast signal output from the first antenna and the second signal output from the frequency conversion unit. A demodulation unit demodulates the one of the broadcast signal and the second signal selected by the selection unit.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2004Date of Patent: October 23, 2007Assignee: Mitsumi Electric Co., Ltd.Inventors: Mitsuhiro Sugiyama, Hayato Shibano, Toshikazu Ogino, Kiminori Nakamura

Publication number: 20050084959Abstract: The method developed herein is for expanding cord blood-derived hematopoietic stem cells to a degree that is sufficiently safe for clinical application, such as the transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells into adult patients. Further, to prepare a number of mesenchymal stem cells or mesenchymal cells that have conventionally been available only in an extremely small number, an immortalizing gene such as that of telomerase is introduced alone into mesenchymal stem cells, mesenchymal cells or the like, so as to induce the differentiation of the expanded mesenchymal stem cells.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2002Publication date: April 21, 2005Inventors: Hirofumi Hamada, Yutaka Kawano, Kiminori Nakamura, Masayoshi Kobune, Osamu Honmou, Atsushi Tanooka, Shin-ichi Oka, Katsunori Sasaki, Hajime Tsuda, Yoshinori Ito, Junji Kato, Takuya Matsunaga, Yoshiro Niitsu
