  • Patent number: 11525521
    Abstract: An instruction duty computation unit computes an instruction duty ratio representing a ratio between an energization time and a non-energization time of a motor based on an actual rotation angle detected by a rotation angle sensor and a target rotation angle of a valve member. The rotation angle sensor detects an actual rotation angle of a valve member of a fluid control valve. A stress computation unit computes a valve member load torque of the valve member based on the actual rotation angle and an actual duty ratio of the motor. An actual duty computation unit computes a new value of the actual duty ratio based on an instruction duty ratio computed by using an instruction duty computation unit and a valve member load torque computed by using a stress computation unit.

  • Patent number: 10730508
    Abstract: A vehicle is equipped with a torque sensor configured to detect a torque, and which is disposed between an internal combustion engine and a first switching device on a first transmission path. When the first switching device is switched from a disconnected state to a connected state, a control device calculates a torque difference between a target torque of the internal combustion engine corresponding to a specified point on the first transmission path, and a detected torque or the like detected by the torque sensor. Further, the control device generates in a first rotary electric machine or a second rotary electric machine a compensation torque that compensates for the torque difference.
