  • Patent number: 11932336
    Abstract: A method of properly aligning a sliding side door on a vehicle includes first preparing a prototype vehicle and determining how far out of alignment the door is to the body of the prototype vehicle. This amount of misalignment is then used to adjust the attachment position of an anchor plate to a sliding side door of the vehicle, so that the anchor plate is attached at a desired position to the production vehicle, which causes there to be no misalignment between the sliding side door and the body of the production vehicle. A jig is used to hold the anchor plate at the desired location while welding the anchor plate to the door. A roller assembly is then attached to the anchor plate and to a rail on a body of the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20230050144
    Abstract: A control device of an electric power steering device includes an arithmetic processing device having a comparison unit, a failure diagnosis unit, and a drive control unit. The comparison unit compares a difference between a first output signal output from a first sensor and a second output signal output from a second sensor with a first threshold value to determine a magnitude relationship, and compares a difference between the first output signal and a third output signal output from a third sensor with a second threshold value to determine a magnitude relationship. Based on a result of the comparison unit, the failure diagnosis unit identifies one abnormal sensor among the first, second and third sensor. Using output values from two normal sensors that are not identified as abnormal sensors among the first, second and third sensor, the drive control unit generates a drive control signal for driving an electric motor.
