Abstract: An ultrasonic transreceiver is disclosed which is capable of substantially preventing the the formation of a gas boundary layer between a piezoelectric transducer and a housing and the breakage of the transducer due to thermal stress and ensuring satisfied electrical connection in the transreceiver. The ultrasonic transreceiver includes a spring for downwardly forcing the piezoelectric transducer arranged in the housing against a bottom surface of the housing. The transreceiver may include a viscous or elastic member arranged between the housing and the piezoelectric transducer to prevent a gas boundary layer from being formed therebetween. Also, the transreceiver may include a coiled spring laterally arranged between the housing and the piezoelectric transducer to forcedly press them against each other and electrically connect them to each other.

Granted: 1992-03-18
Abstract: The formation efficiency of pasted positive plates of a lead-acid battery is greatly enhanced by providing insitu a layer of lead dioxide (PbO₂) on the pasted plate surfaces prior to formation. The PbO₂ layer is preferably formed by treating the surfaces of the plates with an ozone-enriched gas to convert a portion of the poorly conductive positive active precursor material (nPbO·PbSO₄) to electrically conductive PbO₂. In subsequent electrochemical formation of the plates, the total formation charge can be reduced significantly while obtaining more complete conversion of the paste to positive active material. The method also provides an effective substitute for conventional curing of pasted positive plates.

Abstract: A motor driven power steering controller for auxiliarily actuating a steering gear of an automobile with motor rotational force. The controller consists of a car speed sensor (10) for sensing the car speed, a torque sensor (3) for sensing the rotational force of a steering wheel (1), identification means for discriminating the lock of the motor and of a mechanical system from steering in the proximity of a steering wheel lock position, a control unit (9) for inputting the signals of the car speed sensor (10), the torque sensor (3) and the identification means, a D.C. motor (13) for providing auxiliary actuation force and an electromagnetic clutch (16) disposed at a mechanical connection portion between the output of the motor (13) and a rack shaft (6). Under the control of the control unit (9), the lock of the motor and of the mechanical system is discriminated from the steering near the steering wheel lock position and, on the basis of this discrimination result, breakdown of the motor (13) and a power device due to the temperature rise resulting from continuous power feed to the motor (13) is prevented. The motor current is set to zero and the electromagnetic clutch (16) is cut off so that the steering wheel operation can be made at the time of mechanical lock. When steering is made near the steering wheel lock position, the motor current is reduced to zero in the course of a predetermined time to reduce any offensive feel of steering.

Abstract: A control for an inverter operable for converting direct voltage and current to alternating voltage and current. The inverter includes a plurality of electrical valves each operable to conduct current in a single direction upon the application of a positive voltage in the forward direction and the receipt of a trigger pulse. The control provides successive trigger pulses for commutating the current between successive valves at predetermined electrical firing angles and includes a voltage-time area calculating circuit for calculating the maximum permissible firing angle which will permit successful commutation. An inverter commutation failure prevention circuit is coupled to the alternating current network for detecting abnormal voltage conditions and for producting a control signal functionally related to any deviation in the alternating voltage from the expected voltage condition. The control is responsive to the control signal for reducing the electrical angles of the trigger pulses provided to the valves.
