Patent number: 10634348Abstract: Spread of leaking combustion exhaust or the like is suppressed and a thermal fuse is made to operate in definitive fashion. A back flange is made to protrude so as to be directed toward a rear wall of an outer casing from a joint between a combustor casing and a heat exchanger casing to a location in the vicinity of the rear wall. A thermal fuse is arranged about the periphery of the heat exchanger casing so as to extend along a region near a protruding end edge of the back flange. The back flange is provided with a through hole, and combustion exhaust which leaks from the combustor casing is guided to the thermal fuse. A back flange which is similar thereto is installed at an upper location so as to straddle a tubing elbow. The two flanges are made to protrude beyond the tubing elbow.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2016Date of Patent: April 28, 2020Assignee: NORITZ CORPORATIONInventors: Yasushi Kashihara, Kengo Horiuchi, Toshihiko Hamagami

Patent number: 5918886Abstract: A keyless drill chuck includes a raising-and-lowering member which moves back and forth with reference to a shaft in order to secure a rear portion of the cutting tool, and jaws which grip the cutting tool in association with the movement of the raising-and-lowering member toward the jaws while the internal diameter of a circle defined by the jaws. The rear portion of the cutting tool is automatically gripped without the use of a chuck handle by means of a machining resistance transmitted to the jaws from the cutting tool and of the movement of the raising-and-lowering member caused by torsional torque transmitted to a shaft. A V-shaped recess is formed in the end of the raising-and-lowering member facing the jaws, so that the rear portion of the cutting tool can be removable, yet attached to the V-shaped recess.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 1997Date of Patent: July 6, 1999Assignee: Kengo HoriuchiInventors: Kengo Horiuchi, Masayuki Sato
