  • Publication number: 20240174086
    Abstract: The solar charging system is a solar charging system mounted on a vehicle. The solar charging system includes a power generation module, an auxiliary battery, a high-voltage battery, and a control unit that controls power transfer. When power transfer from the auxiliary battery to the high-voltage battery is requested, the control unit performs the power transfer from the auxiliary battery to the high-voltage battery based on a power storage amount of the auxiliary battery, the power generated by the power generation module, and power consumption of an auxiliary load using the auxiliary battery as a power source.

  • Publication number: 20240174128
    Abstract: A solar charging system mounted on a vehicle includes a power generation module using a solar panel, an auxiliary system including an auxiliary machine battery for storing electric power generated by the power generation module and an auxiliary machine load to which electric power is supplied from the auxiliary machine battery, a high-voltage battery used for driving the vehicle, and a control unit provided between the high-voltage battery and the auxiliary system and controlling power transfer between the high-voltage battery and the auxiliary system. In a case where power transfer from the high-voltage battery to the auxiliary system is requested, when the power generated by the power generation module is not supplied to the auxiliary system, the control unit supplies power of the high-voltage battery to the auxiliary system.

  • Patent number: 7694645
    Abstract: An air source (11) is connected to an air motor (3) through an electropneumatic converter (12) which is connected to a rotational controller (13). Upon changing settings in a target rotational speed (N0) or paint discharge rate (Q0), in order to supply a necessary air pressure for rotationally driving the air motor (3) in a steady state with new setting conditions, the rotation controller (13) selects a steady value (is) from a rotational data selection processing table, and outputs to the electropneumatic converter (12) the newly selected steady value (is) as an input current value (i). By so doing, the rotational speed of the air motor (3) is quickly controlled toward the changed target rotational speed (N0).
