PURPOSE:To prevent the generation of misfire, by controlling the variation of engine torque when the terminal voltage of the battery drops below a specific value, in the system where the speed change property is kept in a good condition by converting the engine torque only at a specific value in a speed change operation. CONSTITUTION:The captioned device is furnished with an engine controller comp...

PURPOSE:To prevent a vehicle from inadvertently rushing out, by providing such an arrangement that an accelerator pedal is depressed in a condition in which the pressure of air fed into an actuator is lower than an operating pressure, and the vehicle is inhibited from starting in this condition even if the pressure of air increases up to the operating operation. CONSTITUTION:When an automatic tran...

PURPOSE:To make it possible to manually shift an automatic transmission into a start gear position upon emergency, by attaching a lever to the control shaft of the transmission, and by connecting a plurality of control cables to the lever so that the control shaft may be slid in the rotating and axial directions. CONSTITUTION:Upon emergency in which a microcomputer or any one of actuators 17, 18 f...

PURPOSE:To aim at enhancing the economy of fuel efficiency, by computing a desired engine torque and a desired input side rotational speed so that a torque changing means is controlled to make the actual engine torque become equal to the desired torque while a continuously variable transmission is controlled to make the actual input side rotational speed become equal to the desired rotational spee...

PURPOSE:To aim at enhancing the running ability of a vehicle during transition, by computing a desired value for changing the torque of an engine from a desired engine torque computed in accordance with the operating condition of the engine, and by computing a desired input side rotational speed of the continuously variable transmission in accordance with the desire value. CONSTITUTION:During runn...

PURPOSE:To always obtain a appropriate engine brake, by setting the desired output horse power to a negative value in accordance with the opening degree of an accelerator if the latter is less than a predetermined value when the desired output horse power is computed in accordance with the opening degree of the accelerator and the speed of a vehicle. CONSTITUTION:During running of a vehicle, a com...

PURPOSE:To prevent shocks caused by torsional vibration due to disengagement of a clutch during abrupt braking or abrupt acceleration, by performing gear shift operation with a delay of a predetermined time after disengagement of the clutch upon gear shift operation of a transmission. CONSTITUTION:An engine 10 comprises a fuel injection pump 11, an automatic transmission 15 and the like. A microco...

PURPOSE:To obtain an appropriate engine brake condition, by setting the desired horse power to a negative value in accordance with the opening degree of an accelerator and the amount of depression of a brake pedal if the opening degree of the accelerator is below a predeter mined value when the desired output horse power is computed in accordance with the opening degree of the accelerator sensor a...

PURPOSE:To hinder mist etc. of lubricant from splashing outside by furnishing a shelter to block the gap between a pair of large gears throughout the periphery of large gears. CONSTITUTION:While a pair of wheels 14, 15 rotate at the same speed, a movable member 31 constituting a shelter is energized by a spring 34 in the direction protruding from an accommodation part 29. Therefore, the movable me...

A protective composition which comprises at least one aliphatic polyisocyanate, at least one aromatic polyisocyanate and a solvent.

Fibrous polyolefin nonwoven sheets are bonded and stretched in a continuous, multiple stage process. First, the sheet is heated without significant stretching to a temperature that is close to, but below, the melting temperature of the polyolefin. Then, as the sheet is forwarded to a first stretching stage, the sheet temperature is decreased by 5 DEG to 40 DEG C. and thereafter the sheet is alte...

Apparatus for decorticating shrimps of the crangon vulgaris and/or crangon species. It is characterized by a separate arrangement of a supply unit (2) and a decorticating unit (1); the first unit is used to sort out the shrimps, to separate them one by one and bring them to the decorticating unit (1) and comprises an oscillating conveyor provided with a magazine designed to separate the shrimps on...

A mobile robot calling system has a mobile robot normally waiting at a home position and connected to an AC power supply such that its battery is charged by the AC power supply in the wait status, and a calling oscillator for generating a calling signal to the mobile robot. The calling signal is supplied from the calling oscillator to the mobile robot through indoor AC power supply wiring. Relay t...
