摘要:
A contactless erroneous ignition prevention type ignition system for internal combustion engines, in which the energization of the ignition coil is held regardless of an input signal for a predetermined time period after starting the energization. At a first predetermined time after the output signal of a rotational signal generator corresponding to the rotational speed of the internal combustion engine exceeds a reference level, the energization of the ignition coil is started, and the energization of the ignition coil is maintained regardless of the output signal of the rotational signal generator until a second predetermined time. The charging timing of a capacitor of a frequency-voltage converter circuit for controlling the dwell angle of the ignition coil is controlled according to the first and second predetermined times.

When a discharge lamp repeatedly flickers out after illuminating for a long period of time because the same discharge lamp is nearing the end of its usage lifetime, a stored voltage of a capacitor rises gradually every time the discharge lamp flickers out. When the stored voltage of the same capacitor becomes no less than a predetermined voltage, a comparator generates a high level voltage which actuates a transistor. The transistor then terminates the operations of a PWM circuit to deactuate the discharge lamp.

An object is to enhance workability in attachment in a sound generating apparatus that generates sound by vibrating a vibration plate with a vibrator while ensuring acoustic performance as good as that achieved by fastening with fine screw threads. Workability in attaching operation is improved while ensuring acoustic performance as good as that provided by fastening with fine screw threads, by providing first fixing means that brings engagement portions 31 and 41 into screw engagement with each other by rotation by a predetermined angle that can be attained by a user without taking his/her hand that holds a coupler 3 off it and second fixing means for fixing the coupler 3 to a bracket 4 so as to prevent the coupler 3 from rotating relative to said bracket 4 in a direction to loosen the engagement achieved by said first fixing means.

A discharge lamp ballast circuit has a snubber circuit to perform a soft switching when the MOS transistor is turned off. The snubber circuit has, for example, a capacitor that resonates with a reactance of the fly-back transformer and enables a zero voltage switching. Before a breakdown of a discharge lamp, a control circuit drives the MOS transistor in a non-zero voltage switching manner by turning on the MOS transistor just after a peak voltage. The non-zero voltage switching increases an output voltage of the fly-back transformer. After the breakdown of the discharge lamp, the control circuit turns on the MOS transistor in the zero voltage switching manner to perform the soft switching. As a result, it is possible to reduce switching loss during a lighting of the discharge lamp and to supply sufficient voltage in the lighting preparation period.

In a contactless ignition control system having a dwell time control circuit for an internal combustion engine, there is provided a speed responsive bias voltage circuit, a bias voltge switching circuit and a wave shaping circuit. The speed responsive bias voltage changes the switching level of the wave shaping circuit, thereby elongating the dwell time of the current flowing through an ignition coil.In the dwell time control, when the ignition timing comes, the bias voltage switching circuit prevents application of the speed responsive bias voltage so that the ignition timing is made irrespective of the speed responsive bias voltage.
