And current supply to the electric motor is stopped in case of carrying out a parking brake releasing operation, when a time period in which a differentiated value of the electric current flowing through the electric motor is smaller than a predetermined threshold value exceeds a predetermined time. As a result, a partial braking condition, in which parking brake force partly remains even after the parking brake releasing operation, and which is caused by, for example, the elongation of the brake cable is prevented. | 04-16-2009 |
| 20090200976 | PARKING BRAKE CONTROL DEVICE - In a parking brake control device, the minimum value of a motor current is set as an idle current after a motor begins to be driven, specifically, in a period during which the idle current is being sampled.

This operation is aimed for compensating the decrease of the tension applied to the brake cable which occurs caused by the service brake when the service brake is operating and does not occur when the service brake is not operating. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the service brake from causing a problem in which the lock control is terminated while a desired brake force is not achieved at the EPB. | 08-20-2009 |
| 20100072811 | PARKING BRAKE CONTROL UNIT - When a brake force is generated by a service brake in accordance with the depression of a brake pedal by a driver, a brake force generated by an electric parking brake is reduced when lock control is performed, taking the brake force generated by the service brake into consideration. More specifically, a target motor current value increase amount is corrected such that as the brake force generated by the service brake becomes larger, the target motor current value increase amount becomes smaller. Thus, when brake force is generated by the electric parking brake and the service brake compensates for the brake force, it is possible to inhibit generation of a brake force larger than necessary. | 03-25-2010 |

An abnormality evaluation index value is acquired during the operation of the internal combustion engine and, based on the abnormality evaluation index value, an abnormality which has occurred in at least one cylinder in the internal combustion engine is detected. When the abnormality is detected, a cylinder halting to perform the halting of fuel supply and the halting of the valve operation in the closed state is executed with a first partial cylinder made up of at least two cylinders as the target. After the cylinder halting, with the cylinder to be halted being changed, a cylinder halting is executed with a second partial cylinder made up of at least one cylinder as the target. Based on the change in the abnormality evaluation index value associated with the changing of the cylinder to be halted, the abnormality-occurring cylinder is identified. | 11-10-2011 |
| 20110313642 | CONTROL APPARATUS FOR INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE INCLUDING VARIABLE VALVE OPERATING MECHANISM - Provided is a control apparatus, which can successfully suppress that deterioration of combustion is caused in response to inflow of a large amount of blow-by gas to cylinders at the time of a valve return from a valve stop state in an internal combustion engine including a positive crankcase ventilation system and a variable valve operating mechanism that is capable of stopping at least one valve of an intake valve and exhaust valve in a closed state. A valve stop control is performed which stops the intake valve and exhaust valve in a closed state when a fuel cut of the internal combustion engine is executed. A deviation amount ΔA/F between a predetermined target air fuel ratio and an actual air fuel ratio detected by an A/F sensor at the time of a valve return is obtained. A correction is performed to decrease a fuel injection amount by a fuel amount equivalent to the deviation amount ΔA/F at the time of the subsequent valve returns. | 12-22-2011 |

| 20080316346 | Color solid-state image pickup device and method for reading out pixel signals - A color solid-state image pickup device includes a pixel section having sets of a total of four adjacent pixels arrayed 2×2 in horizontal and vertical directions. Each of the sets consists of an first pixel serving as an upper left pixel and having a first spectral characteristic, a second pixel serving as an upper right pixel and having a second spectral characteristic, a third pixel serving as a lower left pixel and having a third spectral characteristic, and a fourth pixel serving as a lower right pixel and having a fourth spectral characteristic. The pixel section is formed by arraying the sets in the horizontal and vertical directions so that the sets form a matrix. The color solid-state image pickup device uses, as a unit of addition, a total of 16 pixels consisting of four adjacent sets arrayed 2×2 in the horizontal and vertical directions. The color solid-state image pickup device adds up and reads out respective pixel signals of the pixels. The color solid-state image pickup device creates a luminance signal by adding up and reading out respective pixel signals of the first, second, third, and fourth pixels constituting the set. This makes it possible to achieve both high sensitivity and high resolution by inhibiting the resolution from being reduced by adding up pixel signals. | 12-25-2008 |
