INTEGRATED ELECTRICAL PUMP AND OIL PRESSURE CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

An integrated electrical pump comprises a motor, an oil pump driven by the motor, and a pressure control system. The pressure control system controls a hydraulic pressure of the oil pump according to a motor speed of the motor, an oil temperature and a pressure command. An oil pressure control method of the integrated electrical pump is also provided.

Vehicle monitoring system

A system detects a parameter and generates a first trip plan to automatically control the vehicle according to a first trip plan. A controller is connected to a sensor and configured to receive the parameter. The controller is configured to generate a new trip plan or modify the first trip plan into a modified trip plan based on at least one of a cumulative damage or an end of life date. A new trip plan or the modified trip plan is configured, during operation of the vehicle according to the new trip plan or the modified trip plan, for at least one of an adjustment in velocity or avoiding one or more operating conditions of the vehicle, relative to the first trip plan.

CONTROL DEVICE FOR ENGINE, AND ENGINE

In cases where a control device determines that a load is continuously less than a predetermined value for a predetermined period, the control device executes a first control to maintain the engine speed at a first rotation speed or higher, and when the control device determines that the load reached the predetermined value within the predetermined time, the control device executes a second control to maintain the engine speed at a second rotation speed or higher, which is higher than the first rotation speed. This provides a control device for an engine and an engine, which can restrain activation of an oil pressure switch attributed to an oil temperature.

METHOD FOR DETERMINING A DEGREE OF LOADING OF A FILTER
20180056223 · 2018-03-01 ·

A method for determining a degree of loading on a filter medium of a filter device on a vehicle through which a fluid flows includes determining an operating characteristic of the filter device based on at least one operating quantity of the vehicle and comparing a predefined reference characteristic of the filter device with the operating characteristic. The degree of loading is derived from a result of the comparing step.

METHOD AND APPARATUS TO REGULATE OIL PRESSURE VIA CONTROLLABLE PISTON COOLING JETS
20180058277 · 2018-03-01 ·

A method of regulating oil pressure within an engine assembly is provided. The engine assembly includes an oil pump configured to provide oil to an oil system of the engine assembly; a piston cooling jet configured to direct a jet of oil from the oil system towards a piston of an engine; and an electronic control valve configured to control the flow of oil to the piston cooling jet. The method includes operating the electronic control valve to provide a flow rate of oil above a threshold flow rate to the piston cooling jet when the engine assembly is operating above a threshold power output or engine running speed; and regulating the pressure of oil within the oil system when the engine assembly is operating below the threshold power output or engine running speed, by operating the electronic control valve.

OIL PRESSURE CONTROL SYSTEM AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

An oil pressure control method, adapted for mechanical equipment, includes: providing a control device, obtaining a processing program including a processing start code and a motor activation code of a motor, calculating an interval period between the two codes, setting the interval period as a default blank period in a motor operation timing sequence when the interval period is not shorter than a default period and setting a wake-up interval in the default blank period, setting the interval period as a low speed period in the motor operation timing sequence when the interval period is shorter than the default period, and controlling the motor according to the motor operation timing sequence, wherein an interval in the default blank period except the wake-up interval indicates the motor has a first rotational speed, the low speed period indicates the motor has a second rotational speed higher than the first rotational speed.
