Abstract: A method and a device are provided for measuring the temperature of windings of a drive motor, especially a three-phase motor, which is supplied by a converter with three controlled half bridges from a direct current intermediate circuit. The method, a corresponding device, and a control system offer more accurate results with less complicated circuit engineering. To this end, one current flux traversing at least one of the windings of the motor is measured by the converter while approximately knowing at least one cold resistance and other parameters of the motor. A temperature change of the windings is calculated from a change in the current flux based on a change of the temperature-dependent resistance.

Filed: 2002-10-22
Abstract: To permit reliable occurrence of initial combustion at
the start of an engine during which a stroke is not determined
by only a crank pulse and to increase an engine speed. 
     During a period from when cranking is started until a
stroke is detected, fuel is injected once every rotation of
a crankshaft before an intake stroke (or an expansion stroke) ,
and ignition is effected once every rotation of the crankshaft
in the vicinity of the top dead center, thereby enabling initial
combustion without involvement of reverse rotation of the engine.
If a stroke is detected, fuel injection and ignition are effected
once per cycle. When the engine speed fails to become equal
to or higher than a predetermined speed, the ignition timing
is set to a point before the compression dead center and in
the vicinity of 10° toward advance, thereby immediately
increasing the engine speed. Stroke detection is permitted
when the engine speed has become equal to or higher than the
predetermined speed, so that the engine speed becomes stable.

Abstract: After binarization is performed, the adjacency relationship of
connection fields is analyzed from a labeled input image on the basis of the
characteristics of the structure of a barcode, thereby extracting a barcode
field. A unit width, which is to be used as the module width of the barcode,
is determined in accordance with the widths of the connection fields of black
pixels in the extracted barcode field. Based on the arrangement of the
magnification of the unit width, the barcode is recognized by collating a
prescribed barcode pattern with the input width pattern. In the
aforementioned collation, the influence of noises, for example, can be
reduced by setting an allowable range for the collation of the widths in each
magnification, and the barcode can be recognized in an improved precision
even in a low-resolution image photographed using a small image sensor built
in a mobile terminal.
