Abstract: A prior art temperature sensing element by supporting plates against a fixing roller would detect a temperature lower than an actual surface temperature of the fixing roller, because said heat-conductive supporting plates would be cooled by air flowing along said supporting plate, depriving a part of its heat of the temperature sensing element through the supporting plate.According to present invention, a heat-insulating elastic body is disposed over said two supporting plates at one end threof, said temperature sensing element is placed as being projecting from the surface of the heat-insulating elastic body at the center thereof, the temperature sensing element and supporting plates are fastened (sticked) with the heat-resisting film larger in length and wide than the heat-insulating elastic body and each having an adhesive surface one side thereof, and the other end of each supporting plate is secured to a holder.

Abstract: A mount for flexible connection of a vehicle propeller shaft to a vehicle body, including an inner sleeve and an outer sleeve, and an elastic body interposed between said inner and outer sleeves for elastic connection therebetween. The elastic body partially defines at least two pairs of upper and lower fluid chambers filled with a non-compressible fluid, between the inner and outer sleeves, such that the upper and lower fluid chambers of each pair are spaced from each other in a circumferential direction of the mount, and such that pressures of the fluid in the upper and lower fluid chambers change in opposite directions upon application of vibrations between the inner and outer sleeves. The upper and lower chambers of each pair are held in communication with each other through a suitable orifice.

Abstract: A fluid-filled elastic mount for flexibly supporting a vehicle propeller shaft to the vehicle body, having an elastic body interposed between an inner and an outer sleeve. The mount has a pressure-receiving chamber, and a generally arcuate void which extends axially of the sleeves and which is located opposite to the pressure-receiving chamber in the diametric direction of the sleeves. The mount further has a first and a second equilibrium chamber adjacent to the circumferential ends of the pressure-receiving chamber and are partially defined by a first and a second flexible diaphragm. The pressure-receiving chamber communicates with the first and second equilibrium chambers through differently tuned first and second orifice, respectively. An elastic stop is disposed within the pressure-receiving chamber for limiting the relative displacement of the inner and outer sleeves.
