  • Patent number: 11801895
    Abstract: A control device includes a processor and a storage device storing a program for controlling an operation of the processor. The processor determines whether a vehicle is in a straight-ahead traveling state, based on a vehicle speed detected by a vehicle speed sensor, a steering wheel torque applied to a steering wheel, and a steering wheel angle as a rotation angle of an input shaft. The processor stores the steering wheel angle in the memory when determining that the vehicle is in the straight-ahead traveling state. The processor stores the steering wheel angle in the memory multiple times when determining that the vehicle is in the straight-ahead traveling state. The processor calculates a corrected steering angle amount from a weighted average of the steering wheel angles stored in the memory.

  • Patent number: 11713074
    Abstract: To improve steering feeling felt by a driver, a motor control device includes a processor and a memory which stores a program for controlling an operation of the processor. According to the program, the processor executes: switching from n-phase (n is an integer of three or more) energization control to n?1 phase energization control in response to a switching signal; acquiring a torque command value, an electrical angle of a motor, and an actual current value of the motor; generating a pre-current command value on the basis of the torque command value, the electrical angle of the motor, and the actual current value of the motor which are acquired; generating a current command value by applying dither control to the pre-current command value in a dead point range of an electrical angle range from 0 to 2?; and performing the n?1 phase energization control on the basis of the current command value.

  • Publication number: 20230202559
    Abstract: A control device includes a reaction force controller to generate an input torque input to a control target and control a reaction force transmitted to a steering person and an assist controller to generate a correction torque to correct the input torque based on an output of the control target and a nominal model. The assist controller includes a high-pass filter with a first cutoff frequency, a low-pass filter with a second cutoff frequency higher than the first cutoff frequency, and a disturbance compensation value calculator. When a transfer function of the low-pass filter is Q(s) and a transfer function of the high-pass filter is HPF(s), a transfer function of a control target is constrained by a transfer function of the nominal model in a frequency band in which a gain in a gain characteristic of Q(s)·HPF(s) is 1.

    Abstract: A control device includes a reaction force controller to generate an input torque input to the control target and control a reaction force transmitted from a steering wheel to a steering person, an assist controller to generate a correction torque to correct the input torque based on an output of the control target and a nominal model, and a state feedback circuit to feed back a state compensation value to the input torque based on the output of the control target. The assist controller is configured or programmed such that the transfer function of the control target is constrained by the transfer function of the nominal model in the frequency band where the gain in the gain characteristic of the complementary sensitivity function with respect to the modeling error between the control target and the nominal model is approximately 1.

  • Patent number: 7360431
    Abstract: The pressure sensor device has a laminated diaphragm (12) in which a strain resistance gauge is formed in a surface and a stopper member (13) including a concave portion forming a curved surface parallel to a surface formed by displacement of the diaphragm, the concave portion being disposed to face the diaphragm. Specifically, the concave portion of the stopper member is formed into a curved surface in which depth y at a distance x from the center of the diaphragm is expressed by a quartic function [y=pr4(1?x2/r2)2/64D] in relation to the operating pressure for protection against maximum pressure p when the diaphragm has a radius of r, a thickness of t, and a flexural rigidity of D.
