| 20090110499 | METHOD FOR SUPPRESSING VIBRATION AND DEVICE THEREFOR - The vibration suppressing device includes vibration sensors, a FFT calculating unit, a store device, a calculating unit, and a NC device. The vibration sensors detect a time-domain vibrational acceleration of a rotary shaft during rotating. The FFT calculating unit calculates a frequency of chatter vibration and a frequency-domain vibrational acceleration in the frequency of chatter vibration on the basis of the detected time-domain vibrational acceleration. The store device stores the frequency-domain vibrational acceleration, the frequency of chatter vibration and the like as machining information. When the calculated maximum frequency-domain acceleration exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the calculating unit stores the maximum acceleration, the frequency of chatter vibration, and the like as current machining information in the store device, and calculates an optimal rotation speed of the rotary shaft, by which the chatter vibration can be suppressed, based on the current machining information and previous machining information stored in the store device. The NC device rotates the rotary shaft at the optimal rotation speed. | 04-30-2009 |

| 20080196489 | DIAGNOSTIC METHOD AND CONTROL APPARATUS FOR GAS SENSOR - A gas sensor diagnostic method (or apparatus) is arranged to periodically obtain sensor output values of a gas sensor such as an oxygen sensor for an internal combustion engine, and to determine local extreme values from the sensor output values obtained during a period of interruption of fuel supply to the engine. Moreover, the local extreme values are compared with a first predetermined threshold level. When the number of the local extreme values reaches a predetermined first number, a diagnosis is performed to determine whether the gas sensor is in an improper condition or not, in accordance with results of the comparison of the local extreme values with the first threshold level. | 08-21-2008 |
