Abstract: A silent chain using double-sided driving link plates having symmetrical upper and lower teeth has a problem that it is unable to assure a required risky sectional area of the plates because a width between upper and lower crotches is narrow. The invention provides a silent chain using double-sided driving link plates whose required risky sectional area is maintained by using link plate whose back side is undercut and whose upper and lower parts are unsymmetrical even though its front side has a shape of a normal link plate. A distance from a line connecting centers of pin holes to a bottom of an upper-side crotch is equal to or more than ½ of a diameter of the pin hole to assure the risky sectional area. Teeth of the back side are cut away to form a flat surface to assure a contact area with a shoe and others.

Abstract: A lighting device includes a heatsink 70, a socket 10 and an LED module 60. The LED module 60 has a light emitting unit 62 in a central part of a top side of a metal base substrate 63 composed of an insulating plate and a metal plate. The LED module 60 is warped such that the central part protrudes on a heatsink 70 side, which is the side opposite to the light emitting unit 62 side. The LED module 60 is mounted on the heatsink 70 in a state of the surrounds of the light emitting unit 62 being pressed according to pressing units 14T, 14L, and 14D of the socket 10. Pressing the surrounds of the light emitting unit 62 against the heatsink 70 ensures that a central part of the warping of the LED module 60 contacts the heatsink 70.

Abstract: In an inner link rank 9 of a silent chain before pre-stress is applied, hole pitches of outer link plates 37 are shortened as compared to those of inner link plates 38 and 39 (P 17<P18<P19), so that the hole pitches of the respective link plates are plastically deformed and are substantially lined up. Although the hole pitches of the respective link plates are substantially lined up after when the pre-stress is applied, the outer link plates in a width direction in the inner link rank has high fatigue strength by residual stress, so that the wear resistant performance of the chain may be improved.
