Publication number: 20190341854Abstract: A switching power supply device includes: an inverter circuit including an upper side first switching element and a lower side second switching element connected in series; a control unit; and a bootstrap capacitor that is charged during a period in which the second switching element is turned on and that serves as a power supply configured to turn on the first switching element during a period in which the second switching element is turned off. In a burst mode at a light load, the control unit provides only the first switching element with a pause period in which a state of a switching element becomes an off-state for a certain amount of time, such that the first switching element performs the switching operation intermittently.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 7, 2019Publication date: November 7, 2019Applicant: Omron CorporationInventor: Yuji Kohara

Patent number: 10236776Abstract: A bidirectional DC-DC converter includes: a voltage conversion circuit; a first switch circuit connected between the voltage conversion circuit and a high-voltage DC power supply; a second switch circuit connected between the voltage conversion circuit and a low-voltage DC power supply; a smoothing capacitor provided between the first switch circuit and the voltage conversion circuit; and a control unit. The control unit controls the second switch circuit such that turn-on time of the second switch circuit gradually increases, and thereafter, controls the voltage conversion circuit such that a voltage-boosting switching element of the voltage conversion circuit is turned on and off. After a predetermined time elapses from when the voltage-boosting switching element starts to be turned on and off, the control unit turns off the voltage-boosting switching element and turns on the first switch circuit.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2018Date of Patent: March 19, 2019Assignee: OMRON AUTOMOTIVE ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.Inventors: Tadasuke Yano, Yuji Kohara

Patent number: 5533450Abstract: An ink fountain apparatus for a printing press includes an inclined member with an ink supply adjusting member which is swingable about an axis parallel with the rotational axis of an ink fountain roller for movement between a first position where ink fountain is formed and a second position where the ink fountain is not formed. Piston rods of hydraulic cylinders are connected to the inclined member via a connection mechanism to move the inclined member between the first position and the second position. Stoppers are also provided to stop the inclined member at the first position. Springs are included in the connection mechanism to press the inclined member against the stoppers. The spring force produced by the springs is smaller than the force produced by the drive means. With this structure, the work load of an operator can be reduced while enhancing the efficiency and safety of his work.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 1995Date of Patent: July 9, 1996Assignee: Tokyo Kikai Seisakusho, Ltd.Inventors: Tadashi Hachiya, Yukitoshi Takahashi, Yuji Kohara
