Publication number: 20210050811Abstract: A motor drive device includes a single-phase inverter which is an inverter including a plurality of switching elements. The inverter converts a direct-current voltage output from a direct-current power supply into an alternating-current voltage, by operation of the plurality of switching elements operating, and applies the alternating-current voltage to a motor. The motor drive device includes a control power supply outputting power having a voltage lower than the direct-current voltage, by using the direct-current voltage. The motor drive device includes a drive signal generation unit driven by the power. The drive signal generation unit generates drive signals driving the plurality of switching elements, and outputs the generated drive signals to the plurality of switching elements. The motor drive device includes a power supply switch operating so as to allow supply of the power from the control power supply to the drive signal generation unit when a rotation speed of the motor is higher than a threshold.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 23, 2018Publication date: February 18, 2021Inventors: Yuji TAKAYAMA, Haruka MATSUO, Kazunori HATAKEYAMA, Tomoyuki KAMIYAMA, Takuya FURUYAMA, Masami YORITA, Takanobu KONDO

Patent number: 6259386Abstract: This invention relates to data input/output apparatus and the like, which are suitable to be applied to an AV server. As nonlinear accessible storage medium, there is provided with HDD array device (13). When a controller (11) of an AV server (10) receives a command for reproducing data from a minimum of two discontinuous areas in the HDD array device (13) in a first order, the HDD array device (13) then puts the command in an order such that a period of time for access is minimal to reads the data so that the read data are rearranged in the first order to be outputted through decoders (15) to (18). Thereby, the efficiency of data transfer is improved without complications.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2000Date of Patent: July 10, 2001Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Hiroyuki Miyawaki, Takanobu Kondo, Yasuo Iwasaki, Hisao Tanaka

Patent number: 6157625Abstract: In transmitting an MPEG transport stream, each audio signal packet is placed after the corresponding video signal packet when audio and video transport streams are multiplexed. If simple switching were made to switch between a plurality of programs to form a multiplexed transport stream of the programs, part of the audio packets that are placed behind would be lost to cause abnormal sound. In the invention, switching between programs is made by providing signal switching means separately for audio transport streams and video transport streams. As a result, when the program to be transmitted is changed from one program to another, the signal switching means can be switched in such a manner that none of the audio signal packets that constitute those programs are lost.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 1997Date of Patent: December 5, 2000Assignee: Sony CorporationInventor: Takanobu Kondo
