20130094888 | RECORDING MATERIAL CONVEYANCE APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - An image forming apparatus includes a conveyance unit configured to convey a recording material, a driving unit configured to drive the conveyance unit based on a manipulated variable corresponding to a deviation between a conveyance speed of the recording material and a target conveyance speed, and a control unit configured to change a control method for controlling the manipulated variable required to drive the driving unit according to a state in which the recording material is conveyed by the conveyance unit. | 04-18-2013 |
20150318804 | MOTOR CONTROL APPARATUS FOR VECTOR-CONTROLLING SENSORLESS MOTOR - A motor control apparatus that vector-controls a sensorless motor, including: an estimating unit configured to obtain an estimated phase value by estimating a phase of a rotor in the sensorless motor; and a generating unit configured to generate, from the estimated phase value and a phase command value of the rotor, a phase conversion value that is a phase difference between a rotary coordinate system and a static coordinate system in the vector control. The generating unit is further configured to output the phase command value as the phase conversion value when the rotor is caused to start to rotate, and change the phase conversion value so that the phase conversion value approaches the estimated phase value from a predetermined timing after the rotor is caused to start to rotate. | 11-05-2015 |

20130061821 | COMBUSTION APPARATUS - An exhaust channel of a combustion apparatus is defined by an upper sloping plate and a lower sloping plate. The lower sloping plate contains a rising part and a lower sloping wall. A water droplet baffle plate is positioned across an interspace from the rising part. The interspace is brought into fluid communication with the exhaust channel through an upper surface opening while being brought into fluid communication with a bottom of a heat exchange chamber through a communication opening. A collision wall part of the water droplet baffle plate is disposed in close proximity to a lowest fine tube so as to oppose against a combustion exhaust flow. Water droplets adhere onto the collision wall part. Water droplets failing to adhere to the collision wall part fall through the upper surface opening positioned over an upper end of the collision wall part. | 03-14-2013 |

20140202679 | HOT WATER SUPPLY APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - By a feedback arithmetic operation based on a temperature deviation, an input number is set which corresponds to a requested heat quantity generation, which is a controlled object, to a hot water supply apparatus. The temperature deviation is calculated by correcting a deviation of a tapping temperature with respect to a set hot water temperature with use of a Smith compensation temperature calculated by a Smith compensator for predicting a variation in a tapping temperature prior to an elapse of a dead time corresponding to a detection lag of the tapping temperature. The Smith compensator calculates a Smith compensation temperature to be used in the next control cycle based on the input scale number, the present Smith compensation temperature, and a time constant set in accordance with a flow rate of the hot water supply apparatus. | 07-24-2014 |
20140202680 | HOT WATER SUPPLY APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A conversion factor learning unit successively updates a temperature conversion factor by learning a performance ratio of an output heat quantity with respect to an input scale number corresponding to a requested heat quantity generation to a hot water supply apparatus. The temperature conversion factor learned by the conversion factor learning unit is reflected in arithmetic operation of an FF scale number by a feedforward control unit and arithmetic operation of the FB scale number by the feedback control unit. An integral control in the feedback control unit is preferably turned off. | 07-24-2014 |
