A control unit is presented for controlling a driving unit arranged for adjustment of one or more first air guiding flaps of a motorised vehicle between a first outer position and a second outer position. The control unit comprises a communication module for communicating with a vehicle control network for receiving first adjustment instructions for adjusting the first flap, a power supply module comprising an input power terminal for receiving power from a vehicle power network and a first output power terminal for supplying a first current to the driving unit. The control unit further comprises a current sensor module for sensing variations in the first supply current and a control module arranged to control the first supply current in accordance with the adjustment instructions and the sensed variations. By separating the control module from the driving unit, functionality of the control module may be shared over multiple driving units.

An electric machine includes a rotor, a stator, at least one measurement circuit, and a controller. The rotor includes a plurality of salient poles arranged radially around a rotation axis of the electric machine and spaced apart from the rotation axis of the electric machine. The stator includes a plurality of coils configured to selectively align with the plurality of salient poles of the rotor. The at least one measurement circuit is configured to measure at least one current through at least one of the plurality of coils. The measured current includes a current ripple. The controller configured to compute a position of the rotor based on a characteristic of the current ripple.

A motor control system includes a variable voltage supply in signal communication with a direct current (DC) motor. The DC motor includes a rotor induced to rotate in response to a drive current generated by a variable supply voltage delivered by the voltage supply. The rotation of the rotor 103 generates a mechanical force that drives a component. A ripple count circuit 104 is configured to filter the drive current based on a rotational speed (ω) of the rotor 103 to generate a filtered drive current signal, and to generate a varying threshold based on the filtered drive current signal. Based on a comparison between the filtered drive current signal and the varying threshold, the ripple count circuit 104 generates a pulsed output signal indicative of the rotational speed (ω) of the rotor and a rotational position (θ) of the rotor.

The first connector includes at least the following: a first pin to which a first output of the first H-bridge is input, a second pin to which a second output of the first H-bridge is input, and a third pin. The second connector is disposed apart from the first connector and includes at least the following: a first pin to which a first output of the second H-bridge is input, a second pin to which a second output of the second H-bridge is input, and a third pin of the second connector.

A method accurately detects biting of a foreign object in a packaging machine. A control apparatus controls a packaging machine that sequentially seals and/or cuts a packaging material transported in a first direction using a rotor. The rotor is arranged to have a tangent to its outer circumference portion in contact with the packaging material extending in the first direction. The rotor is drivable and rotatable by a driver. The control apparatus includes an information obtaining unit that obtains information indicating a rotational position of the rotor and a status value of the driver in predetermined cycles, and a determination unit that determines a presence of an abnormality in a sealed portion of the packaging material using, from the information obtained by the information obtaining unit, a status value of the driver corresponding to a rotational position of the rotor falling within a predetermined range or being a predetermined position.
