HYBRID VEHICLE DISPLAY DEVICE
In the present invention, a display device is provided with a fuel gauge (40) that displays the amount of fuel remaining in a fuel tank (24) (remaining amount) of a hybrid vehicle (10) that is provided with an engine (13) that consumes fuel supplied from the fuel tank (24) and generates power by driving wheels (15) or rotating a motor (11), the hybrid vehicle being provided with a non-traveling/non-power generating mode, or in other words, a fuel consumption mode or an engine maintenance mode in which the engine (13) is forced to run and consume fuel for purposes other than traveling or generating power. Of the fuel (41a) displayed in the fuel gauge (40), the region (41aa) corresponding to the amount of fuel consumed in the non-traveling/non-power generating mode is displayed so as to be distinguishable by color from another region (41ab), and thus, it is possible to display as a status and in a visually clear manner a state in which the engine (13) continues to run, and it is possible for the driver to confirm how much fuel is being consumed in the non-traveling/non-power generating mode, thereby providing the driver with peace of mind.
Control device for internal combustion engine and control program therefor
A control device for an internal combustion engine includes an information acquirer, a first computing unit, and a second computing unit. The information acquirer acquires information on a state amount that changes depending on the operation state of the internal combustion engine. A region determiner determines whether the state amount falls within a set region. The first computing unit uses an in-region state amount within the set region, as an input value to compute a control amount of the internal combustion engine by a neural network. The second computing unit selects a reference state amount within the set region, based on the out-of-region state amount, uses the selected reference state amount as an input value to compute a reference control amount by the neural network, and computes the control amount corresponding to the out-of-region state amount based on the computed reference control amount.
Integrated safety and input/output module for an engine control system
A safety and input/output (I/O) module of an engine controller for an engine set of a marine vessel can be physically distinct from an engine control unit (ECU). The safety and I/O module can include hardware in addition to software, firmware, or a combination thereof. The safety and I/O module can be a single logic controller having safety functionality and I/O functionality. The safety functionality can be for dynamic engine protection during operation of the engine set of the marine vessel. The I/O functionality can be for sending signals to components external to the engine controller and for receiving signals from components external to the engine controller.

Construction machine
A filter (30) traps particulate matter in an exhaust gas. A filter inlet side pressure sensor (34) is provided in an inlet side of the filter (30). An EGR valve inlet side pressure sensor (22) is provided in an inlet side of an EGR valve (20). A regeneration controller (38C) determines whether or not the filter inlet side pressure sensor (34) is in failure based upon a difference between a pressure value detected by the filter inlet side pressure sensor (34) and a pressure value detected by the EGR valve inlet side pressure sensor (22). When the filter inlet side pressure sensor (34) is in failure, the regeneration controller (38C) performs control of regeneration treatment using a differential pressure calculated based upon a pressure value detected by the EGR valve inlet side pressure sensor (22) and a pressure value detected by the filter outlet side pressure sensor (35).
