  • Patent number: 9702378
    Abstract: A control valve apparatus includes a second-working-actuator acceleration control valve connected to a first working control valve in parallel. The second-working-actuator acceleration control valve includes pilot chambers receiving a pilot pressure for switching first and second working control valves and a flow channel that guides a pressure fluid of a first pump port to an entrance port side of the second working control valve. The second-working-actuator acceleration control valve is switchable between a first priority position in which a pressure fluid is guided to the first working control valve with a higher priority than the second working control valve and a second priority position in which a pressure fluid is guided to the second working control valve with a higher priority than the first working control valve.

  • Patent number: 9412432
    Abstract: A semiconductor storage device is provided with a memory cell array comprising a plurality of word lines including word lines that are adjacent to one another; and a TRR address conversion unit that selects the word line in response to the input of an address signal indicating a first value while in a first operation mode and selects the word line in response to the input of an address signal indicating a first value while in a target row refresh mode. Due to the fact that address conversion is performed on the semiconductor storage device side in the present invention, it is sufficient for a control device to output, for example, the address of a word line having a high access count to the semiconductor storage device during a target row refresh operation. As a result, control of the target row refresh operation on the control device side is facilitated.
