  • Patent number: 9031676
    Abstract: An operation control apparatus includes a command generation portion that generates a command signal for commanding operation of a control surface, and first and second monitoring portions that monitor an abnormality of operation of first and second control portions, respectively, of the actuator control apparatus. The actuator control apparatus includes first and second control portions that generate a control signal for an actuator for driving the control surface and that are different in design, and a switching unit that switches the connection to the actuator from one of the first and second control portions to the other, when an abnormality is detected by the first and second monitoring portions. Accordingly, it is possible to monitor a generic failure, and realize redundancy enabling control of the overall operation of the actuator, from start to finish, when a generic failure has occurred, thus realizing further simplification and streamlining of the configuration.

  • Patent number: 8918297
    Abstract: A storage unit stores a first reference value of an input/output electric signal into/from control unit and a second reference value of an input/output electric signal into/from a monitoring unit. If the amount of deviation between the input/output electric signal into/from the control unit and the first reference value exceeds a threshold value, a first caution signal output unit detects degradation of the control unit and outputs a caution signal. If the amount of deviation between the input/output electric signal into/from the monitoring unit and the second reference value exceeds a threshold value, a second caution signal output unit detects degradation of the monitoring unit and outputs a caution signal. The first and second reference values are acquired and stored in the storage unit in a period between completion of production of the control unit and the monitoring unit and start of the operation thereof.

  • Patent number: 8866422
    Abstract: An inverter and a control unit that has a command signal processing unit and a PWM frequency control unit and performs pulse width modulation control are provided. If the command signal processing unit has received a first PWM frequency command signal, it outputs a low PWM frequency command signal so that synchronous or asynchronous PWM control is performed at a PWM frequency in a predetermined frequency range. The command signal processing unit outputs a high PWM frequency command signal so that synchronous or asynchronous PWM control is performed at a higher frequency than the above-mentioned frequency if the command signal processing unit has received a second PWM frequency command signal and until a predetermined time period elapses. The command signal processing unit outputs a low PWM frequency command signal if it has received the second PWM frequency command signal and after the predetermined time period elapsed.
