  • Patent number: 5764270
    Abstract: A light scanning controller includes a plurality of light scanning parts for forming a latent image on a photoconductor by irradiating it with a scanning laser beam, and a clock controller for generating a timing signal by using a single clock signal obtained from a master clock oscillator to transmit the timing signal to each of the light scanning parts which controls the timing of the scanning laser beam on the basis of the timing signal received from the clock controller.

  • Patent number: 4568068
    Abstract: A plate spring is operatively connected to an automotive internal combustion engine so that when the engine vibrates with a relatively high frequency and small amplitude, the plate spring is merely moved backwards and forwards across an essentially flat home position wherein it exhibits a zero or even negative spring constant, and so that when the engine vibrates with a relatively low frequency and large amplitude, the spring is flexed to the degree of exhibiting a high spring constant and thus transmits the vibrational energy therethrough to a resilient body or unit interconnecting same with the vehicle chassis.

  • Patent number: 4531484
    Abstract: The expansion/contraction timing of an actuator chamber is varied in accordance with the sensed engine vibration in a manner as to compensate for the frequency dependent change in pressure transmission characteristics between the chamber of the actuator and the chamber of an engine suspension insulator. This is done by sensing the engine vibration frequency or a parameter which varies in accordance with same (e.g. RPM) and suitably delaying a solenoid or similar electric motor energization signal in accordance with the frequency of the vibration.

  • Patent number: 4463721
    Abstract: A vibration suppression system for a diesel engine comprises a first device for decreasing the amount of intake air to be inducted into the engine when operated. A second device is provided to heat the intake air when operated. Additionally, a third device is provided to detect a low engine speed and low engine load operating range, and to produce a signal in response thereto. The first and second devices are operated in response to the signal from the third device, thereby avoiding irregular combustion and misfire while suppressing engine speed fluctuation and torque fluctuation.
