  • Patent number: 11973453
    Abstract: A first actuator and a second actuator each have a plurality of control calculation units provided redundantly and a plurality of motor drive units provided redundantly. In the first and the second actuators, the control calculation units of the systems paired with each other transmit and receive information to and from each other by a communication between the actuators. When a failure occurs in any system in either of the two actuators, or when a failure occurs in a communication between actuators in either system, the control calculation unit of each actuator of the system in which the failure occurred stops the motor drive control. Then, the motor drive control is continued by the control calculation unit of the normal system in both actuators.

  • Patent number: 10760982
    Abstract: Each of a first electrode pattern Ty and a second electrode pattern Tx extends between third electrodes Rx neighboring in a Y direction among the plurality of third electrodes Rx so as to overlap only partly with each of the neighboring third electrodes Rx in a plan view. A microcontroller is configured to detect capacitance generated at those portions. The microcontroller is configured to calculate shear force based on a capacitance change obtained due to a change in an overlapping surface area between the third electrode Rx and the first electrode pattern Ty and the second electrode pattern Tx overlapping each other in a plan view, when a pressure is applied so that an insulator is deformed.

  • Patent number: 9737850
    Abstract: Provided is a novel palladium catalyst capable of efficiently purifying carbon monoxide (CO) and total hydrocarbons (THC) under a fuel-rich atmosphere even when palladium (Pd) is used as a catalyst active component. Proposed is a palladium monolayer catalyst for an exhaust gas from a saddle-riding-type vehicle, which is an exhaust gas purification catalyst for a saddle-riding-type vehicle to be installed in an exhaust gas passage in an internal combustion engine. The palladium monolayer catalyst includes a substrate, and a catalyst layer that has the form of a monolayer and contains palladium acting as a catalyst active component, an inorganic porous body acting as a catalyst carrier, ceria (CeO2) particles acting as a promoter component, and barium.

  • Patent number: 9314773
    Abstract: Provided is a palladium catalyst in which palladium (Pd) is used as a catalyst active component, and particularly a novel palladium catalyst which can purify CO and THC with high efficiency even under a fuel-rich atmosphere having a high space velocity (SV). Proposed is a palladium catalyst having a substrate and a catalyst layer that contains palladium acting as a catalyst active component, an inorganic porous material acting as a catalyst support and ceria (CeO2) particles acting as a promoter component, in which a mass ratio (Pd/CeO2) of a content of the palladium in the catalyst layer to a content of the ceria particles in the catalyst layer is 0.0014 to 0.6000.
