Abstract: A spacer arranged inside a water jacket which is formed to surround peripheries of cylinder bores in a cylinder block of an internal combustion engine includes support legs extending in an up-and-down direction from a spacer main body part which partitions the water jacket into an upper and lower cooling water passages. The support legs are disposed in opposite end portions in a cylinder row line direction, where the temperatures of the cylinder bores tend to be lower. Accordingly, even if the flow of cooling water is more or less inhibited by the support legs and the cooling effect deteriorates, it is possible to prevent the temperatures of the respective cylinder bores from becoming different by suppressing the influence to a minimum.

Abstract: A spacer fitted inside a water jacket which is formed to surround peripheries of cylinder bores in a cylinder block of an internal combustion engine includes: a spacer main body part partitioning the water jacket into an upper cooling water passage and a lower cooling water passage; and a cooling water outlet and inlet port part continuing to the spacer main body part. A center of a thickness of the cooling water outlet and inlet port part is offset in a radial direction from a center of a thickness of the spacer main body part. Accordingly, when cooling water passes the cooling water outlet and inlet port part, the pressure loss can be reduced in such a way that the cooling water outlet and inlet port part does not interfere with the passage.

Abstract: A height of a spacer which is arranged inside a water jacket formed to surround peripheries of cylinder bores of a cylinder block of an internal combustion engine is made to be lower by a step in an intermediate portion thereof in a cylinder row line direction. Consequently, among end-portion cylinder bores having a lower temperature and being situated at opposite end portions in the cylinder row line direction and intermediate cylinder bores being other than the end-portion cylinder bores and having a higher temperature, a cooling performance of the intermediate cylinder bores is higher than that of the end-portion cylinder bores. Therefore, all the temperatures of the respective cylinder bores can be made uniform. A similar operation effect can be obtained alternatively by making a thickness of the spacer thinner in portions facing the intermediate cylinder bores and thicker in portions facing the end-portion cylinder bores.

Abstract: An output compensating device of an image sensor using a number of light-sensor circuits, each of which represents a unit pixel and works by producing in a photoelectric converting element a sensor current proportional to a quantity of light falling thereon, converting the current into a voltage signal by using sub-threshold region characteristic of a transistor having a logarithmic output characteristic in a weak inverse state, which enables the image sensor to compensate for variations in each pixel output by using a sensor signal obtainable when changing a gate voltage and drain voltage of the transistor with shut-off light falling on the photoelectric converting element to a value lower than normal voltages of the transistor for taking video. This enables the image sensor to easily compensate for variations in output characteristics of respective light sensor circuits in a pseudo output state created therein with no actual light falling thereon.
