Abstract
A vehicle-mounted apparatus includes: first and second voltage conversion circuits configured to convert voltages of electric powers supplied from first and second electric power supply circuits, to first and second predetermined voltages; first and second control circuits configured to be operated by the electric powers of the first and second predetermined voltages supplied from the first and second voltage conversion circuits, and to output first and second actuator command signals; first and second actuators configured to be actuated based on the first and second actuator command signals.
Claims8
A vehicle-mounted apparatus comprising:
- a first voltage conversion circuit configured to convert a voltage of an electric power supplied from a first electric power supply circuit, to a first predetermined voltage;
- a first control circuit configured to be operated by the electric power of the first predetermined voltage supplied from the first voltage conversion circuit, and to output a first actuator command signal;
- a first actuator configured to be actuated based on the first actuator command signal;
- a second voltage conversion circuit configured to convert a voltage of an electric power supplied from a second electric power supply circuit, to a second predetermined voltage;
- a second control circuit configured to be operated by the electric power of the second predetermined voltage supplied from the second voltage conversion circuit, and to output a second actuator command signal;
- a second actuator configured to be actuated based on the second actuator command signal;
- and
- a power cylinder including a housing and a piston, wherein:
- the housing includes a first chamber and a second chamber separated by the piston;
- the piston is configured to obtain a thrust by a pressure difference between hydraulic fluids supplied, respectively, to the first chamber and the second chamber;
- the first voltage conversion circuit and the second voltage conversion circuit are configured to transmit a heating value by heat generation, to the housing;
- the first actuator is a first electric motor configured to provide the thrust to the piston;
- and
- the second actuator is a second electric motor configured to provide the thrust to the piston.
