Patent EP-1065115-A2 (EP)
Inventor: EGUCHI TAKAHIRO
IPC: B60W30/18
Filed: 2000-06-30
Abstract: A driving force control unit for a vehicle, which allows
transmission of driving force from a driving motor to driving
wheels irrespective of releasing an accelerator pedal at a certain
or lower vehicle speed when a transmission is selected to a running
range, and which switches the magnitude of the driving force while
the accelerator pedal is released at a vehicle speed no more than
the certain vehicle speed between a greater condition and a
smaller condition in accordance with depression of a brake pedal
so that the driving force is made lower at a depression of the
brake pedal than at a release of the brake pedal, wherein the
driving force value in said greater condition at a certain or lower
vehicle speed is changed according to the vehicle speed, and the
change of the driving force value is characterized in that the
driving force value becomes smaller as reaching from the vehicle
speed at the maximum driving force value to said certain vehicle
speed, and further switching said driving force, before stopping
the vehicle, from said greater condition to said smaller condition
is permitted merely in the vicinity of said certain vehicle speed.

V BE ) between a reference voltage level of the reference voltage generating
circuit (11) and the voltage levels of two midpoints (B, C).

Abstract: A device for reading and writing data to a tape recording medium divides a
magnetic tape into a plurality of partitions. At boundaries between the partitions,
optional device areas (ODAs) are formed in which the tape is loaded and unloaded.
In each of data areas excluding the ODAs, values of record counts, each indicating
the number of recording data, are recorded in a memory in cassette (MIC) in the
magnetic tape. When a current position in a predetermined partition is obtained by a
host computer, cumulative values of the record count value in each partition are
computed. Based on the cumulative values, the current position is computed and
output to the host computer.
