  • Patent number: 6904894
    Abstract: A pulsation reducing system for a fuel line of an internal combustion engine, especially for an automotive engine equipped with an electronic fuel injection system is provided. The system includes a fuel delivery rail, a fuel tank, and a longitudinal main fuel pipe. A first flexible tube is arranged between the fuel delivery rail and the main fuel pipe. A second flexible tube is arranged between the main fuel pipe and the fuel tank. A small-ID tubular portion is arranged within the first tube or near the connecting portion of the first tube. The inside diameter of the small-ID tubular portion is smaller than that of the main fuel pipe. The length of the small-ID tubular portion is set between 10 to 50 times the inside diameter of the small-ID tubular portion itself. Thus, standing waves and resultant pressure pulsations caused by the fuel delivery rail are reduced by the small-ID tubular portion.

  • Patent number: 6901553
    Abstract: A specific access space for each user is selectively specified in the hypertext space having mutual link relation between one or more hypertexts provided by one or more servers. An analysis unit interprets a page request from a user and extracts the URL and space identification information of the requested page information. A page information request unit requests for the page information to be referred to by the extracted URL to the WWW server. A specific information addition unit takes out the link comment data corresponding to the space identification information and synthesizes a page by adding the comment to the received page information. The page synthesized page information instead of the requested page information is returned to the requester user.

  • Publication number: 20040141774
    Abstract: In the prior developing apparatus in an image forming apparatus composed such that, the developing apparatus has an agitation/transfer means for supplying the developer while agitating the same to a developing roller for developing the latent image to be formed on a photo conductor, a toner container is mounted detachably above said agitation/transfer means, and toner is allowed to freely fall onto the same, there have happened the phenomenon that the toner piles or cakes between the inner wall of the developing apparatus and toner receiving opening or agitation/transfer means and as a result the supply of toner to the agitation/transfer means is obstructed, inducing the shortage in toner supply to the developing roller and occurrence of irregular image formation.

  • Patent number: 6671855
    Abstract: A document outlining any work done on a workspace is to be automatically generated. A workspace history managing part holds the present and past states of a workspace together with history information on the manipulation performed on the workspace. A synthesis rule holding part holds synthesis rules for synthesizing information. A synthesizing part, working on history information managed by the workspace history managing part, synthesizes information in accordance with the synthesis rules held by the synthesis rule holding part, and thereby generates outline information. This dispenses with the need for a user to prepare documents stating the progress of his or her work, and reduces the user's workload correspondingly. Moreover, automatic generation of outline information makes the latest information available all the time.
