  • Publication number: 20230370010
    Abstract: A ventilation blower includes an inverter main circuit, a motor body driven by the main circuit, a control circuit that controls the main circuit, and a storage device. The storage device stores an angular velocity of a motor rotor and a torque current value at a first operation point at which to obtain a first air volume on a first load characteristic, and the angular velocity and the torque current value at a second operation point at which to obtain a second air volume on the load characteristic, the second air volume being different from the first air volume. The control circuit calculates, from the angular velocities and the torque current values at the first and second operation points, the angular velocity and the torque current value at a third operation point at which to obtain a third air volume on the load characteristic.

  • Publication number: 20210246631
    Abstract: A shovel includes a processor, and a memory storing program instructions that cause the processor to obtain environmental information around the shovel, and perform determination related to an object around the shovel based on the obtained environmental information, by using a learned model on which machine learning has been performed. The learned model is updated to an additionally learned model on which additional learning has been performed based on teaching information generated from the obtained environmental information. In a case where the learned model is updated, the processor performs the determination based on the obtained environmental information, by using the updated learned model.
