- the invention relates to a method of controlling a removable electric propulsion system for a rolling object.
- the removable electric propulsion system helps to transport the rolling object.
- the rolling object may in particular be a hospital bed, the mass to be transported of which may reach about 500 kg.
- the electric propulsion system is removable and can, as such, be hooked or unhooked from the rolling object.
- the same propulsion system can thus be used to transport different rolling objects at different times. It therefore represents a lower investment than a specific electrical system permanently mounted on each rolling object concerned.
- the removable electric propulsion system has in particular at least one wheel driven by an electric machine.
- This driven wheel provides assistance in moving the rolling object, allowing the user, such as the stretcher bearer for a hospital bed, to make less effort to move the rolling object.
- At least one signal representative of the torque exerted by the rolling object on the propulsion system at the driven wheel is measured.
- a measuring means integrated in the electric propulsion system This measurement makes it possible to obtain information on the variation in torque of the driven wheel.
- the torque applied to the wheel from the electric machine being known (by a setpoint applied to the electric machine), the torque variation will then be explained as coming either from the user, or by variations induced by the wheel contact. / ground (slope, holes, door sills etc.).
- the user can for example act on the rolling object or on the propulsion system, for example by a handlebar;
- the measured signal is compared with at least a first threshold and at least a second threshold.
- the first threshold is less than the second threshold.
- This comparison can be carried out for example by a computer, data processing means, or an electronic system, capable of communicating with the measuring means.
- the first and second thresholds can be predefined for example from tests in situation of the system.
- the torque setpoint exerted by the electric machine on the driven wheel is increased by a second predetermined value. As a result, the electric machine and the system will accelerate.
- the first and second thresholds are different.
- first threshold By measurement lower (respectively higher) than a threshold (first threshold, respectively second threshold for example) over a certain period, it is meant that the measurement carried out remains lower (respectively higher) than the considered threshold (first threshold, respectively second threshold for examples) throughout the duration considered (first duration, respectively second duration, for example). On each measurement time increment, the measurement must remain lower (respectively higher) than the threshold considered for the measurement to be considered as being lower (respectively) higher than the threshold.
- the setpoint of the electric machine is varied incrementally.
- the measurement of the signal considered is compared with the two thresholds (first and second threshold). If the measurement is lower (respectively higher) than the first threshold (respectively second threshold) during the time increment (first duration, respectively second duration), then the setpoint of the electric machine will be modified for the next time increment to adapt more quickly to the measurement, i.e. that is, to respond more quickly to the needs of the user.
- the method is also particularly advantageous because the user does not need a remote control or control box to control the system. On the contrary, the user acts manually on the rolling object and the system responds intuitively and automatically to the action exerted by the user.
- the measurement is between the first threshold and the second threshold
- the torque setpoint exerted by the electric machine on the driven wheel can be kept.
- measurement between the first threshold and the second threshold it is meant that the measurement is neither lower than the first threshold over the first period, nor higher than the second threshold over the second period.
- the set point of the electric machine is not changed. The movement of the rolling object can therefore continue without effort on the part of the user.
- a battery or any other means of energy storage can be used to supply the electrical machine with energy.
- FIG. 1 illustrates, in a schematic and non-limiting manner, an example of a control method for a removable electric propulsion system according to the invention.
- a signal representative of the torque exerted at the driven wheel of the removable electric propulsion system is measured (MES).
- the torque at the driven wheel is determined from the measurements made and is then compared to the setpoint of the electric machine. This is to determine whether a user action is taken, to speed up or brake the system.
- the measurements taken are then compared (COMP) with at least a first threshold for a first duration and with at least a second threshold for a second duration.
- These two thresholds are predefined depending on the rolling object, operating situations and / or the user, for example through experiments on the system.
- measurement lower (respectively higher) than a first threshold (respectively second threshold) during a first duration (respectively second duration) it is meant that the measurement is lower (respectively higher) than the threshold considered over the entire period considered. Consequently, if part of the measurement carried out is greater than the first threshold (respectively less than the second threshold) during the first duration (respectively the second duration), the measurement is not considered less than the first threshold over the first duration (respectively greater than the second threshold during the second duration).
- condition C1t If the measurement is less than the first threshold for a first period (condition C1t), the torque setpoint (C-) of the electric machine is reduced so as to slow down the electric machine (and therefore the removable electric propulsion system).
- condition C2t If the measurement is greater than the second threshold for a second period (condition C2t), the torque setpoint (C +) of the electric machine is increased so as to accelerate the electric machine (and therefore the removable electric propulsion system).
- condition C3 when at least part of the measurement carried out over the period considered is between the first threshold and the second threshold (condition C3), the measurement is considered to be between the first threshold and the second threshold, the previous setpoint of the electrical machine is kept (setpoint 0).
- the control of the electrical machine is carried out in incremental time steps, corresponding to time increments of durations corresponding to the first duration (for the first threshold) and to the second duration (for the second threshold).
- the setpoint of the electrical machine Before the start of the control process, for the initialization of the control process, the setpoint of the electrical machine is considered to be zero (no setpoint). The setpoint is applied to the increment following the measurement increment.
- the torque setpoint exerted by the electric machine on the driven wheel can be progressively reduced, in predefined increments, until the electrical machine stops.
- This solution has the advantage of allowing the system to stop after a certain time, which limits the risk of potential collision if the user fails to stop / brake the system.
- this solution is close to natural operation of the system (natural operation is understood to mean operation without electric assistance) and therefore allows the user to gradually get used to the electric assistance system.
- natural operation is understood to mean operation without electric assistance
- FIG. 2 illustrates, in a schematic and non-limiting manner, another example of a control method suitable for the system according to the invention.
- a signal representative of the torque exerted at the driven wheel of the removable electric propulsion system is measured (MES).
- the measurements taken are then compared (COMP) with at least a first threshold for a first duration and with at least a second threshold for a second duration.
- These two thresholds are predefined according to the rolling object, the operating situations and / or the user.
- condition C1t If the measurement is less than the first threshold for a first duration (condition C1t), i.e. if all the measurement points carried out in the time interval of the first duration are less than the first threshold, the torque setpoint (C-) of the electric machine so as to slow down the electric machine (and therefore the removable electric propulsion system).
- condition C2t If the measurement is greater than the second threshold for a second duration (condition C2t), i.e. if all the measurement points carried out in the time interval of the second duration are greater than the second threshold, the torque setpoint (C +) of the electric machine so as to accelerate the electric machine (and therefore the removable electric propulsion system).
- the previous setpoint of the electrical machine (Cr setpoint) is reduced in predefined increments.
- the setpoint increments can therefore be constant or, on the contrary, defined to increase the braking progressively until the electrical machine stops. This way, for each increment of time that the user does not act on the system to control acceleration or deceleration, the system gradually brakes to a stop.
- This progressive dissipation of energy to brake the system can in particular be done by using energy dissipation means (for example a mechanical brake, resistive electric elements, and / or the use of the electric machine as a generator to recharge the batteries) connected to the electric machine
- energy dissipation means for example a mechanical brake, resistive electric elements, and / or the use of the electric machine as a generator to recharge the batteries
- the first threshold can be negative and the second threshold can be positive. Therefore, when the measurement exceeds the second threshold, the setpoint of the electrical machine is increased; on the contrary, when the measurement is below the first threshold, the electrical machine setpoint is reduced until the machine comes to a complete stop.
- system control is simplified.
- the first threshold can be the opposite of the second threshold.
- the system behaves symmetrically under acceleration and braking.
- the first duration may be equal to the second duration. This allows the number of system parameters to be reduced. In addition, it allows the user to better anticipate the behavior of the system (for example to determine the time to maintain his effort for the system to react). This variant is advantageous because it also makes it possible to simplify the control method by making comparisons at the same time intervals for the first threshold and for the second threshold.
- the first predetermined value may be equal to the second predetermined value.
- the acceleration and deceleration phases are symmetrical, which allows the user to better anticipate the behavior of the system.
- the first predetermined value can be a function of the difference between the measured signal and the first threshold.
- the first predetermined value may not be a predetermined constant but a predefined function.
- the setpoint will increase, for example linearly.
- other curves could be used. This makes it possible to respond more quickly and efficiently to the user's needs.
- the second predetermined value can be a function of the difference between the measured signal and the second threshold.
- the second predetermined value may not be a predetermined constant but a predefined function.
- the setpoint of the electric machine can be modified by a third predetermined value.
- the third predetermined value may for example be greater than the first predetermined value. Therefore, a need for braking necessary for example to pass a small hole in the ground or if the system is subjected to an uphill slope, the system can increase the setpoint to prevent the system from stopping.
- the third duration may be less than the first duration. This can be used to detect a point braking peak.
- the machine setpoint can be reset to zero, so as to achieve an emergency stop.
- the setpoint of the electrical machine can be modified by a fourth predetermined value, the fourth predetermined value being preferably greater than the second predetermined value.
- the setpoint of the electric machine can be increased by a fourth predetermined value.
- the system can automatically increase the setpoint to meet the user's needs more quickly and efficiently.
- the setpoint of the electric machine can be reduced by a fourth predetermined value so as to prevent the system from running wild. In this way, we can avoid overwhelming the system beyond the fourth threshold.
- the fourth threshold can be used to increase or decrease the setpoint of the electric machine according to the various measurement parameters in order to determine whether the exceeding of the threshold is due to a one-off power peak or to a risk of runaway. .
- the fourth duration may be less than the second duration. This can help detect a one-time power peak.
- the correction can for example bring the measurement back to zero.
- This correction can in particular be used to overcome the disparities that may be created in the system and thus carry out an automatic adjustment.
- This correction can also be used to prevent runaway of the system which would be subjected to a downhill slope. Indeed, when the system remains for a determined period between the first threshold and the second threshold, a correction can be made to bring the measurement back to zero. As the measurement is brought back to zero, the electrical machine setpoint remains constant. This correction avoids creating an overshoot of the second threshold. Indeed, without the measurement correction, if the system continues its descent on the slope, exceeding the second threshold risks being reached, which would have the effect of increasing the setpoint of the electric machine and therefore accelerating the system when this is not desirable.
- this correction could also be used to avoid a stop of the system which would be subjected to an uphill slope.
- a correction can be made to bring the measurement back to zero, thus carrying out a resetting.
- the electrical machine setpoint remains constant. This correction avoids creating an overshoot below the first threshold. Indeed, without the measurement correction, if the system continues to climb up the slope, exceeding the first threshold risks being reached, which would have the effect of reducing the setpoint of the electrical machine and therefore stopping the system. while this is not desirable.
- FIG. 3 illustrates, in a schematic and non-limiting manner, another example of a control method suitable for the system according to the invention.
- a signal representative of the torque exerted at the driven wheel of the removable electric propulsion system is measured (MES).
- the measurements taken are then compared (COMP) with at least a first threshold for a first duration and with at least a second threshold for a second duration.
- These two thresholds are predefined according to the rolling object, the operating situations and / or the user. If part of the measurement carried out is greater than the first threshold (respectively less than the second threshold) during the first duration (respectively the second duration), the measurement is not considered less than the first threshold over the first duration (respectively greater than the second threshold during the second duration).
- the measurement increment is the same for the comparison of the measurement with the first and second thresholds. This means that the first duration is equal to the second duration.
- condition C1t If the measurement is less than the first threshold for a first period (condition C1t), the torque setpoint (C-) of the electric machine is reduced so as to slow down the electric machine (and therefore the removable electric propulsion system).
- condition C1t2 If the measurement is less than a third threshold for a third period (condition C1t2), the torque setpoint (C--) of the electric machine is reduced, the third threshold being less than the first threshold, the reduction of the setpoint C- being greater than the reduction in the setpoint C- so as to increase the braking of the electric machine (and therefore the removable electric propulsion system).
- condition C2t If the measurement is greater than the second threshold for a second period (condition C2t), the torque setpoint (C +) of the electric machine is increased so as to accelerate the electric machine (and therefore the removable electric propulsion system).
- condition C2t If the measurement is greater than a fourth threshold for a fourth period (condition C2t), the fourth threshold being greater than the second threshold, the torque setpoint (C ++) of the electric machine is increased, the increase in the setpoint being greater than the increase in the C + setpoint, so as to accelerate the electric machine (and therefore the removable electric propulsion system).
- condition C3 the previous setpoint of the electrical machine is kept ( setpoint 0).
- the previous instruction is therefore not modified in this case.

- the axis 8 of the connecting pivot between the driven wheel 3 and the frame 2 is rigidly fixed to the support part 20.
- the support part 20 is itself in a pivot connection around the axis 21 of the driven wheel 3.
- the axis 21 of the driven wheel 3 is at a distance e from the axis of the connecting pivot 8.
- the driven wheel 3 is offset from the axis of the pivot. link 8 (we can also say that it is eccentric or off-center from the axis of the link pivot 8).
- the driven wheel 3 is a steerable off-center wheel, the orientation of which is automatic. It is therefore a passive system of automatic orientation in the direction of travel.
- the electric machine 10 is connected to the driven wheel 3.
- the axis 22 of the electric machine 10 is not coaxial with the axis 21 of the driven wheel 3.
- a transmission means 17 consisting of a belt or chain is used for the connection and power transmission between the electric machine 10 and the driven wheel 3.
- the electric machine 10 is fixed to a connecting piece 23 serving as a support plate.
- the connecting piece 23 is in a pivot connection around the axis 21 of the driven wheel 3.
- the connecting piece 23 and the support piece 20 can pivot with respect to one another around the axis. 21 of the driven wheel 3.
- a measuring means 24 can be positioned between these two parts, this measuring means 24 being fixed on the one hand to the support part 20 and to the connecting part 23 to measure a variation in distance.
- This measuring means 24 can in particular be a torque pickup rod, which makes it possible to measure the variations in torque generated on the driven wheel 3 and, on the other hand, to block the rotation of the connecting piece 23. This measurement makes it possible to determine the torque at the level of the driven wheel 3. The value of the torque is then used as data for the control-command of the electric machine by control means (not shown), for example a controller comprising electronic control equipment.
- Figures 11 and 12 illustrate modes of operation corresponding to the removable electric propulsion system of Figure 10.
- the user acts on the handlebars or on the rolling object by a force F1 which is transmitted to the frame 2, then to the support part 20 and finally to the driven wheel 3.
- the force F1 is collinear. to the x direction which will be considered as a forward direction.
- This force creates a reaction - F1 at the level of the contact between the driven wheel 3 and the ground (not shown).
- a torque Cr1, created by the force F1 is generated at the level of the driven wheel 3.
- This torque Cr1 generated on the driven wheel 3 creates a rotation of the driven wheel, partially countered by the resistive torque of the electric motor, and a rotation of the connecting piece 23 around the axis of the driven wheel 3, generating a downward movement of the connecting piece 23 (in the direction opposite to z).
- the measuring means can then detecting an elongation d1 or an increase in the angle or in the force between the support part 20 and the connecting part 23.
- the measuring means 24 may for example consist of a torque take-up rod.
- the control means can then control the electric machine to increase the torque generated (or the speed of rotation).
- the system will be able to accelerate and the speed can be maintained afterwards without effort from the user.
- a simple user-generated pulse is enough to achieve acceleration.
- the measurement carried out by the measuring means is always carried out in the direction of the direction of movement, which makes it possible in particular to be free from parasitic forces in the other. directions.
- the user acts on the handlebars or on the rolling object by a force F2 which is transmitted to the frame 2, then to the support part 20 and finally to the driven wheel 3.
- the force F2 is in a direction opposite to the direction x of the force F1 of FIG. 11; the F2 effort is towards the rear.
- This force F2 creates a reaction - F2 at the level of the contact between the driven wheel 3 and the ground (not shown).
- a torque Cr2, created by the force F2 is generated at the level of the driven wheel 3.
- This torque Cr2 generated on the driven wheel 3 creates a rotation of the connecting piece 23 around the axis of the driven wheel 3, generating an upward movement of the connecting piece 23 (in the z direction).
- the measuring means can then detect a decrease d2 in the length, the angle or the force between the support part 20 and the connecting part 23.
- the control means can then control the electric machine to decrease. the torque generated (or the speed of rotation).
- the system will slow down or slow down its travel speed on a simple push from the user backwards. The system then allows this reduced speed to be maintained without user effort.
- Figures 11 and 12 explain the principle of operation of the system in the x direction corresponding to the longitudinal direction of the chassis but the wheels being automatically orientable in the direction of displacement by the eccentricity of the wheel with respect to the connecting pivot between the wheel and frame, the effect of the operation of Figures 11 and 12 could be applied in any desired direction of travel.
- the invention also relates to a coupling comprising a rolling object and an electric propulsion system as described above, the rolling object being coupled to the electric propulsion system by the coupling means.
- the rolling object can be moved by simple way, with limited interactions with the user. It does not require remote controls and reacts almost intuitively to user requests.
- the rolling object is a rolling bed, a cart, a rolling cabinet, or a wheelchair.
- the electric propulsion system since the electric propulsion system has a small footprint, the footprint of the hitch thus formed is also reduced, which allows maneuvering in restricted areas.
- Figures 4 to 7 illustrate examples of control methods for a removable electric propulsion system of rolling objects according to the invention.
- FIG. 4 corresponds to the embodiment of Figure 1.
- CM a measurement curve CM of a signal representative of the torque at the level of the driven wheel, measured by the measuring means (torque sensor for example) of the removable electric propulsion system over time t .
- the measurement is compared, on each considered increment, with the thresholds S- and S +, corresponding respectively to a first threshold (S-) and a second threshold (S +).
- S- first threshold
- S + second threshold
- the measurement will be considered as greater than a threshold, for example at the second threshold S +, if the measurement is greater than the threshold S + over the entire duration of the increment, the increment corresponding to the interval between two lines vertical dotted lines, the comparison increment being here identical for the comparison of the measurement CM to the first threshold S- and to the second threshold S +.
- the first duration and the second duration over which the measurement is compared to the first and second thresholds (S- and S +) are identical, which simplifies the analysis.
- the measurement CM cannot be considered to be greater than the threshold S + during the time increment situated between the instant t2 and the instant t3.
- the setpoint Csg is therefore kept identical for the following increment between the instant t3 and the instant t4 to that of the previous setpoint Csg, corresponding to the setpoint Csg applied between the instant t2 and the instant t3.
- the entire measurement curve 102 is greater than the threshold S +, the setpoint Csg of the electrical machine is therefore increased on the following increment starting at the instant t4 , which is materialized by the first notch observed on the setpoint curve Csg.
- the measurement CM always remains greater than the threshold S + so that the reference Csg is increased in steps, corresponding to the various increments.
- the setpoint is increased by a predefined constant value.
- the CM curve remains between S- and S + so that the setpoint is not changed between t19 and t20, nor between t20 and t21.
- the portion of curve 112 remains below the threshold S-. Consequently, on the various increments considered, the setpoint is progressively reduced by slot.
- the march of each of the slots is identical.
- the decrease in the setpoint is determined by a predefined constant value.
- the assistance of the electrical machine is provided to the system between times t4 and t33, with a setpoint adapted to the measurement to meet the user's needs.
- FIG. 5 schematically and nonlimitingly illustrates a second example of the control method according to the invention.
- the references corresponding to the references in FIG. 4 are identical and are therefore not redetailed. They correspond to the same elements.
- FIG. 5 corresponds to the embodiment of FIG. 2.
- FIG. 5 differs from FIG. 4 by applying a variant of the strategy for controlling the setpoint Csg between time t11 and t22, corresponding to the end of the increment which begins at time t11, then enter t27 until the end of the Csg setpoint curve.
- the setpoint Csg of the electric machine is kept constant between t11 and t22.
- the setpoint Csg of the electric machine is progressively reduced by steps 150, the reduction corresponds to a constant step.
- the steps 150 of the setpoint reduction Csg are therefore identical between t11 and t22.
- the setpoint Csg of the electrical machine is gradually reduced until it stops, while in FIG. 4, this setpoint Csg remained constant. Indeed, as between time t26 and time t27, the measurement is considered to be between the first threshold S- and the second threshold S +, the setpoint applied between time t26 and time t27, is reduced d 'a step 150 between time t27 and time t28. Likewise, the setpoint is reduced between the instant t28 and t29 when it reaches a zero value. In the following increments, as the measurement always remains between the first threshold S- and the second threshold S +, the zero setpoint is maintained since the shutdown of the electric propulsion system has been obtained.
- the assistance of the electrical machine is provided to the system between times t4 and t29, with a setpoint adapted to the measurement to meet the user's needs.
- FIG. 6 illustrates, in a schematic and non-limiting manner, a first variant of the method for controlling the electric propulsion system of FIG. 4.
- the control of the FIG. 6 defines an additional threshold S ++ (fourth threshold), greater than the threshold S +.
- This threshold is used to detect punctual power peaks where the setpoint must be readjusted. For example, this may be the case if the S ++ threshold is much greater than the S + threshold or if the power peak is high (door threshold passage for example for a hospitalized bed, or short slope on which the system is raised) but over a short period.
- the considered increment PRS + located between two successive vertical lines (perpendicular to the time axis t), for the comparison of the measurement to the S ++ threshold, can be less than the increment used for figure 4, used for the comparison of the measurement with the thresholds S + and S- (the increment used for the thresholds S + and S- is not represented in FIG. 6).
- the measurement curve of the signal representative of the torque at the level of the driven wheel CM is between the first threshold S- and the second threshold S + before the instant t100.
- the Csg setpoint is therefore kept constant until the instant t101.
- part of the curve CM remains below the threshold S + (and a fortiori below the threshold S ++).
- the measurement is therefore not greater than the second threshold S +.
- the parts of curves 300 and 303 remain below the threshold S ++ while the part of the curve 301 is above the threshold S ++ on the PRS + increment located between time t100 and time t101.
- the measurement cannot therefore be considered to be greater than the S ++ threshold during the PRS + increment located between t100 and t101.
- the torque setpoint Csg is therefore not modified. It is kept constant on the next increment, starting after t101.
- the measurement curve CM is between S- and S + on the various increments considered. Even if there is a slight overshoot of the curve CM just before time t102, this overshoot does not exist over the entire increment ending at time t102 so that the measurement cannot be considered as greater than threshold S + on this increment ending at time t102.
- the setpoint is therefore kept at the next increment between t102 and t103.
- the portion of curve 304 is greater than threshold S ++, over the entire increment.
- the measurement on the PRS + increment between t102 and t103 is greater than the S ++ threshold on this increment.
- the setpoint is increased by a value greater than that of the square waves in Figure 4, so as to rapidly provide the power required for the measured peak. A rapid response is therefore provided to the user's demand for power.
- the measurement remains between the first threshold S- and the second threshold S +, including on the increment starting at time t103, because part of the curve 305 is less than the threshold S +.
- the Csg setpoint applied to the increment starting at time t103 is retained over the entire end of the Csg setpoint curve.
- FIG. 7 illustrates, in a schematic and non-limiting manner, a second variant of the method for controlling the electric propulsion system of FIG. 4.
- the control of the FIG. 7 defines an additional threshold S - (third threshold), lower than the threshold S-.
- This threshold S- is used to detect occasional power reductions where the setpoint must be readjusted. For example, this may be the case if the threshold S-- is much lower than the threshold S- (the system needs to be braked quickly for example) or if the decrease in power is significant over a short period. This case may correspond to the passage of a hole or a more or less long slope through which a medical bed transported by the removable electric propulsion system is lowered.
- the considered increment PRS-, located between two successive vertical lines (perpendicular to the time axis t), for the comparison of the measurement to the threshold S- may be less than the increment used for figure 4 (the increment used for the thresholds S + and S- is not represented in FIG. 7).
- the measurement curve of the signal representative of the torque at the level of the driven wheel CM is between S- and S + before the instant t201.
- the torque setpoint Csg of the electric machine is therefore kept constant.
- part of the curve CM remains greater than the threshold S- (and a fortiori greater than the threshold S-).
- the parts of curves 200 and 203 remain above the threshold S- while the part of the curve 201 is below the threshold S-.
- the measurement cannot therefore be considered as lower than the threshold S- during the increment PRS- located between t201 and t202.
- the torque setpoint Csg is therefore not modified. It is kept constant on the increment starting at t 202.
- the measurement curve CM is between S- and S + on the various increments considered. Even if there is a portion of the CM curve just before time t203 below threshold S-, the measurement is not less than threshold S- over the entire increment ending in t203. The setpoint is therefore kept at the next increment between t203 and t204.
- the portion of the curve 204 is below the threshold S-.
- the measurement on the PRS- increment between t203 and t1204 is less than the S- threshold.
- the setpoint is reduced by a value greater than that of the slots in Figure 4. The setpoint reduction is therefore higher, which makes it possible to obtain greater braking.
- the torque reduction is such that the setpoint is voluntarily reduced to zero, so as to achieve an emergency stop.
- the setpoint is not determined by a predefined reduction value but by definition directly from the value of the setpoint to be applied to the next increment starting at time t204.
- This setpoint is then kept zero over the rest of the curve CM, the curve remaining, over the various increments located after t204, between the first threshold S- and the second threshold S +. The stop is therefore retained.
