  • Publication number: 20240101103
    Abstract: A hybrid vehicle includes a forward-backward travel changeover mechanism including a forward clutch and a reverse brake, a continuously variable transmission, an engine, a motor generator, an output clutch, a mechanical oil pump, an electric oil pump, a manual valve, an oil passage, and a control unit. The manual valve supplies oil to the forward clutch when a parking range is selected. When a state of charge of a high voltage battery decreases to a predetermined value or lower in the parking range, the control unit disengages the output clutch, engages the forward clutch, and causes the engine to operate to drive the motor generator as a generator. When a backward traveling range is selected while power generation is being performed in the parking range, the control unit drives the electric oil pump, and supplies the oil to the output clutch or the reverse brake through the oil passage.

  • Publication number: 20230035868
    Abstract: A liquid discharge apparatus includes a substrate stage configured to move while holding a substrate, a discharge unit including nozzles for discharging a liquid, a control unit configured to control the discharge unit to discharge the liquid from the discharge unit, and a position acquisition unit configured to acquire a position of a movement target object at a predetermined timing while the substrate stage or the discharge unit is moved as the movement target object. The control unit controls a discharge timing for discharging the liquid from the discharge unit, based on a difference between the position of the movement target object acquired by the position acquisition unit at the predetermined timing and a target position of the movement target object at the predetermined timing.

  • Publication number: 20100099107
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for identifying cells having a predisposition to develop an intestinal phenotype, wherein the cells are characterized by the loss of expression of the RUNX3 gene and the expression of one or more intestinal marker genes. In particular, the invention is directed to the identification of cells, which exhibit an intestinal phenotype representing a precursor of gastric cancer. Furthermore, the invention discloses a method for identifying a compound inhibiting the development of an intestinal phenotype in cells having a predisposition to develop an intestinal phenotype. Finally, the invention also relates to kits of parts for performing these methods.
