  • Patent number: 10711716
    Abstract: A preparation control for suppressing fluctuation of an output torque of the engine at the time of executing switching operation from the whole cylinder operation to the partial cylinder operation is executed when having made a switching request from the whole cylinder operation to the partial cylinder operation. The target switching time executing the switching operation is calculated in accordance with the valve operation phase after the preparation time is completed. The cylinder deactivation mechanism is controlled such that the switching operation is executed at the target switching time. The target switching time is set in accordance with the valve operation phase at the timing in which the abnormal noises are not generated.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10683814
    Abstract: A preparation control for suppressing fluctuation of an output torque of the engine at the time of executing switching operation from the whole cylinder operation to the partial cylinder operation is executed when having made a switching request from the whole cylinder operation to the partial cylinder operation, the valve operation phase is fixed to a predetermined phase before executing the switching operation, and the cylinder deactivation mechanism is controlled so as to execute the switching operation at a target switching time which is prefixed by corresponding to the predetermined phase. The target switching time is previously set to a timing at which abnormal noises are not generated, by corresponding to the valve operation phase fixed to the predetermined phase.

  • Patent number: 7399983
    Abstract: In an inspection for protrusion of the melted thermoplastic material of transversal line seal into inside, it is an object to provide a quality inspection method and a quality inspection device which can easily detect projection on edge of seal, securely capture even fine unevenness which could not visually found, and allows for accurate and reliable inspection without variation of inspection. The quality inspection method comprise steps of returning container formed from a web-like packaging laminated material to a shape of pillow-like preliminary forming, cutting container wall to sample a filled food, preparing the sampled body, measuring an edge of the transversal seal zone on the inside of the container over the whole length of the outer surface of the edge for unevenness of the outer surface by a detecting unit, and judging an acceptability of the transversal seal zone based on signals from the detecting unit by an analyzing unit.
