  • Patent number: 6850807
    Abstract: A triple redundant control device, including, first to third control units, each outputting corresponding one of first to third control signals, and outputting corresponding one of first to third control stop signals when corresponding one of the first to third control units stops, first to third higher value selector switches, each receiving corresponding one of the first to third control signals and corresponding one of the first to third control stop signals, outputting corresponding one of the first to third control signals, and changing output into a signal associated to a value being higher than values of the first to third control signals when the corresponding one of first to third operation stop signal is inputted, a medium value gate receiving signals outputted from the first to third higher value selector switches, selecting and outputting a medium value of values corresponding to the first to third control signals, and a signal selector receiving the first to third control signals and a signal out
