An EGR control apparatus for the engine includes an ECU. The ECU calculates a LP-side correction coefficient Kcor_LP and a HP-side correction coefficient Kcor_HP such that they include a LP-side FB correction value Dfb_LP and a HP-side FB correction value Dfb_HP that are calculated using equations (9) and (17) such that an absolute value of an EGR amount error E_egr is reduced, and a LP-side learned value CorMAP_LP/HP-side learned value CorMAP_HP learned when a LP ratio R_LP=1/R_LP=0 holds, calculates a target LP opening &#x3b8;_LP_dmd and a target HP opening &#x3b8;_HP_dmd using the LP-side correction coefficient Kcor_LP and the HP-side correction coefficient Kcor_HP, and controls a LP opening &#x3b8;_LP and a HP opening &#x3b8;_HP such that they become equal to the target LP opening &#x3b8;_LP_dmd and the target HP opening &#x3b8;_HP_dmd.

An image forming apparatus includes a communication interface configured to communicate with a portable terminal capable of receiving a signal from a transmitter in a detection area. A processor of the apparatus is configured to determine whether to shift to an operable state from a sleep state based on user information contained in proximity information when the proximity information, containing the user information indicating that a user enters the detection area, is received by the communication interface from the portable terminal receiving a signal from the transmitter.

The objective of the present invention is to provide a control device for an engine that enables precise control of the equivalence ratio. The system from the fuel injection amount to the output from a LAF sensor is modeled as an injection amount-sensor output model by means of a model equation containing model parameters and a lag coefficient. The system from the equivalence ratio to the LAF sensor output is modeled as a port equivalence ratio-sensor output model by means of a model equation containing the lag coefficient. The control device is equipped with: a feedback-use identifier that successively identifies values for the model parameters; a LAF lag compensation-use identifier that successively identifies values for the lag coefficient; and a stoichiometric driving mode controller that determines the value of a fuel injection amount.

The objective of the present invention is to provide an exhaust purification system that is capable of purifying exhaust gas during both lean and stoichiometric driving. The exhaust purification system is equipped with: a feedback-use identifier, which identifies parameter values such that the error between the output value from a LAF sensor and the estimated value for the LAF sensor output as obtained from a model equation is minimized; and a stoichiometric driving mode controller. The controller performs feedback control and thereby determines the fuel injection amount such that in the stoichiometric driving mode the equivalence ratio value as calculated from the parameters reaches a target value which is set such that a three-way purification reaction occurs in an under-engine catalyst. The identifier identifies the model parameters before feedback control is initiated by the controller.

A connector includes a plurality of terminals, a connector housing, a pair of partition walls and a concave section. The connector housing includes a base section on which the terminals are erected. The partition walls are erected on a bottom surface of the base section so as to intersect with a straight line connecting base end sections of a pair of the terminals adjacent to each other. The concave section is recessed into the bottom surface of the base section so as to intersect with a straight line connecting base end sections of the partition walls at adjacent side end edges of the partition walls.

Either of first and second corrugated tubes having different groove (or ridge) pitches can be mounted on a connector. In this case, the distance between a first retaining projectionand a second retaining projectionis a common multiple of these pitches, and therefore either of the two different corrugated tubes can be properly retained on both of the first and second retaining projectionsand. Furthermore, either of the first and second corrugated tubesandof different diameters can be properly fixed to a tube insertion portionby a binding band passed through binding band passage holes

The present invention provides a LIF (Low Insertion Force) connector fixing a vehicle body panel capable of reducing the number of parts and improving workability. The LIF connector fixed to a vehicle body panel includes a frame including a first guide groove, a first connector connected to the frame so as to be rotated and including a second guide groove, a second connector having a first boss and connected to the first connector by rotating the first connector from a position where the first boss is inserted into the first and the second guide groove at the same time.

Low insertion force connector

This invention provides with a connector housing in which a retaining arm for fixing a metal terminal to be inserted into a receiving chamber is formed within the receiving chamber, and extends in a direction of insertion of the metal terminal, and the retaining arm has a convex retaining portion to be engaged with a predetermined retaining hole formed in the metal terminal, wherein the retaining portion has a first slanting surface formed at a central portion of the retaining portion in a direction perpendicular to the direction of insertion of the metal terminal, and a pair of second slanting surfaces formed respectively at opposite side portions to the central portion, the second slanting surfaces being gentler in inclination angle than the first slanting surface; and at an arbitrary position in the direction of extending of the retaining arm in a range in which the first slanting surface is disposed above a predetermined height, the second slanting surfaces are disposed lower than the first slanting surface.

A lever-fitting connector includes: a first connector; a second connector having a retaining portion; and a rotatable lever which engages the first connector with the second connector. The rotatable lever includes a retaining arm for provisionally retaining the lever with the second connector to abut on the retaining portion. The retaining arm extends to form a slit between the retaining arm and an edge of the rotatable lever. A width of the slit is smaller than an elastic range of the retaining arm at which the retaining arm bends toward the edge.

Lever-fitting connector

The combined type connector includes a base connector housing and a detachable connector housing. The base connector housing includes a first main body, a boss groove provided on a first outer surface of the first main body, a first guide part provided on the first outer surface; and a first stopping part provided on the first outer surface. The detachable connector housing includes a second main body, a boss provided on a second outer surface of the second main body, a second guide part provided on the second outer surface and a second stopping part provided on the second outer surface. The base connector housing and the detachable connector housing are connected by engaging the boss with the boss groove and pivoting the detachable connector housing about the boss from a first position to a second position so that the first guide part slides along the second guide part and the first stopping part and the second stopping part are engaged so as to stop the detachable connector pivoting at the second position.
