  • Patent number: 9145066
    Abstract: A fuel cell vehicle including a fuel cell, a traveling motor, a secondary battery, a predetermined device, an air tank, an electric air feeder, and a control unit is provided. The fuel cell is mounted to a vehicle, and at least has a pair of electrodes that pinch an electrolyte membrane, the pair of electrodes including a catalyst. The traveling motor is driven by a generated power of the fuel cell to provide a driving force to a driving wheel. The secondary battery is charged with the generated power. The predetermined device is driven by an air pressure and has a predetermined function of the vehicle. The air tank stores a compressed air for driving the predetermined device. The control unit controls (i) a charge of the secondary battery, (ii) an operation of the air feeder, (iii) an power generation and (iv) a feeding destination.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8352814
    Abstract: An electronic control apparatus comprises a nonvolatile memory, operating means, determining means and retrying means. The nonvolatile memory stores predetermined data and has a memory region which is divided into a plurality of sub-regions. The operating means executes a check operation for each of the sub-regions in order to check whether the data stored in the nonvolatile memory are normal or not. The determining means determines whether the check operation has detected any data errors. The retrying means allows the operating means to retry the check operation for a predetermined number of times for the sub-regions that have been determined to be in data error by the determining means.
