Abstract: To provide a fuel cell system configured to charge a battery with maintaining the independence and redundancy of a fuel cell and a battery as power sources. A fuel cell system for air vehicles, wherein the fuel cell system comprises a fuel cell, a battery, a motor and a controller; wherein the fuel cell and the battery are connected to the motor as independent power sources, and the motor includes a double three-phase winding that uses a double inverter; and wherein, when normal output is requested from the motor, the controller operates the motor by a predetermined first output from the fuel cell, and the controller charges the battery by a torque generated in the motor.

Abstract: In a hybrid vehicle equipped with an EV switch and a cruise switch operated by the driver, an ECU detects on/off of the EV switch and on/off of the cruise switch, determines whether or not both the EV switch and the cruise switch are on, and if both of them are on, prohibits transmission of an EV travel control command to an inverter and an engine ECU and transmits a cruise travel control command thereto.

Abstract: A brake hold control device includes a brake actuator having an electromagnetic valve for holding braking force of a vehicle, two accelerator opening degree sensors for control and for defect detection that detect an accelerator opening degree, and a brake ECU that receives detection signals from the two accelerator opening degree sensors as input. The brake ECU releases braking force when predetermined held-brake release conditions, including accelerator opening degree conditions, for releasing a held brake are satisfied. The accelerator opening degree conditions for releasing a held brake are set such that both of the accelerator opening degrees corresponding to the detection signals from both of the two accelerator opening degree sensors are greater than a predetermined opening degree.

Abstract: It is made possible to scale up the throughput of a chemical plant using microreactors. The chemical plant has a liquid sending line communicating with a raw material tank at a bifurcation of raw material and a means for detecting the flow of raw material and a control valve for adjusting the flow located in the line. In each branch line to each of the multiple microreactors connected in parallel, there are provided a means for monitoring the flow rate of raw material and a means for adjusting this flow rate. A control apparatus monitors the flow rate in each liquid sending line and adjusts the quantity of liquid sent from each control valve and each pump to avoid the influence of an air bubble or deposit in each line.

Abstract: In a hybrid vehicle of the invention, when a voltage level E of a low-voltage battery exceeds a preset alert reference value Eth1 (step S115), fueling control activates a negative pressure pump with a preset amount of power consumption for standard fuel vapor treatment (step S125). When the voltage level E of the low-voltage battery exceeds a low charge reference value Elow but is not higher than the preset alert reference value Eth1 (steps S115 and S120), the fueling control activates the negative pressure pump with a smaller amount of power consumption (step S130). When the voltage level E of the low-voltage battery is not higher than the low charge reference value Elow (step S120), the fueling control inactivates the negative pressure pump (step S135). Such control enables at least a voltage of the low charge reference value Elow to be reserved in the low-voltage battery even after regulation of internal pressure of a fuel tank.

Abstract: There is provided a serial transmitting section for serially transmitting a command frame 100 which is sent from a host controller 1 to a positioning type servo amplifier 30 and a command follow-up type servo amplifier 50. In the command frame 100, an information section, into which information to be transmitted is inputted, has discrimination data for showing a selection between the positioning type servo amplifier 30 and the command follow-up type servo amplifier 50. In the positioning type servo amplifier 30 and the command follow-up type servo amplifier 50, there is provided information reading section for reading the content of an information section after the discrimination data of the command frame 100 by the discrimination data of the command frame 100.

Abstract: A multifunctional printer is provided with an external LCT (Large Capacity Tray) that has an elevator movable in up/down directions, the elevator being empowered by a power supply to a drive mechanism of a body unit. Paper is provided on the elevator to be fed into the body unit. When a sheet of paper remains within the LCT during a paper delivery error, the elevator is lowered to a predetermined location before shutting down the power supply to the drive mechanism in the body unit.
