  • Patent number: 8670905
    Abstract: A vehicle stability control method is to be performed by a vehicle stability control system of a motor vehicle, and includes the steps of: detecting an actual yaw rate, and obtaining a plurality of detection values by detecting a vehicle speed and a steering wheel angle, and at least one operation status selected from a lateral acceleration status, a load status and a steering wheel angular speed status; obtaining a plurality of intermediate weight values, from which a steering characteristic value is determined, based on the obtained detection values; obtaining a target yaw rate based on the vehicle speed, the steering wheel angle and the steering characteristic value; and controlling steering of road wheels according to difference between the target and actual yaw rates.

  • Publication number: 20130332031
    Abstract: A stimulus-based steering sensor device and a method for the same are disclosed. The sensor device comprises at least one driving wheel, a processor, two driven wheels, and two resolvers. The processor generates a stimulus signal and has a signal-angle lookup table. The driving wheel contacts two driven wheels. When following the rotation of a steering column, the driving wheel drives two driven wheels to rotate at different speeds. Two resolvers connect with the processor, respectively engage with two driven wheels, receive the stimulus signal, and respectively output two first sinusoidal signals to the processor according to the rotational speeds of two driven wheels. The processor analyzes two first sinusoidal signals to obtain two second sinusoidal signals having different periods, and uses the second sinusoidal signals and the signal-angle lookup table to obtain a first absolute angle value of the rotation of the steering wheel.

  • Patent number: 8531339
    Abstract: An electronic device is provided, including a main body, a battery detachably received in the main body, a stopper disposed in a predetermined position to restrict the battery in the main body, an antenna disposed on the stopper, and a cover connected with the stopper and movable relative to the stopper between a first position and a second position. When the cover is in the first position, the cover is engaged with the main body and restricts the stopper in the predetermined position. When the cover is moved from the first position along a first direction to the second position, the cover is disengaged from the main body, and the stopper is releasable from the predetermined position along a second direction.

  • Patent number: 8483913
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a self-calibration method for an electric power steering system, which can self-calibrate the sensors to a normalized state to prevent from signal distortion, whereby to maintain stable steering sense of the driver and promote robustness and performance of the EPS system. The self-calibration method includes a signal offset compensation tactic and a zero-point signal self-calibration tactic. The present invention determines whether to undertake self-calibration according to judgement tactics, including a sensor power supply judgement tactic, a sensor correctness judgement tactic, and a self-calibration triggering condition. The self-calibration method can increase the correctness of sensors, maintain the original steering-assisting function and promote robustness of the EPS system.

  • Patent number: 7387599
    Abstract: A massaging body-gym apparatus is composed of a rod, at least two rollers, two positioning sleeves, two sealing covers and an elastic rope. A positioning device is installed in the roller, composed of a pair of half positioning bases and a positioning bar. The positioning sleeve has a blocking disc bored with a restricting hole for inserted by the positioning bar. With the positioning bar inserted in or separated from the restricting hole of the positioning sleeve, the roller can be positioned immovably or released to rotate freely, so that, combined with different postures, various parts of a human body can be exercised or massaged. In addition, the present invention is small and light, handy for carrying.
