Abstract: An intake system of an internal combustion engine, in which a phase angle between throttle valves is provided in order to perform combustion appropriate for each cylinder so as to stabilize a number of revolutions and thereby suppress generation of unburned gas, is provided. The intake system is provided to intake passages of an internal combustion engine with parallel cylinders. The intake system includes a power transmission mechanism configured to transmit power from a power source to throttle shafts so as to synchronize and simultaneously turn a plurality of throttle valves and thereby open and close the intake passages. At least one of the throttle valves is an angled throttle valve having a phase angle at an open position relative to the other throttle valve.

Abstract: A mold device includes a primary mold and a secondary mold. The primary mold includes a cavity mold and a primary core mold. The primary mold is configured to inject a first resin material into a first cavity to mold a primary molded product, the first cavity being formed by clamping the cavity mold and the primary core mold. The secondary mold includes the cavity mold and a secondary core mold. The secondary mold is configured to inject a second resin material into a second cavity to stack mold a secondary molded product on a peripheral edge of the primary molded product. The second cavity is formed by clamping the cavity mold and the secondary core mold. The cavity mold is configured to hold the primary molded product. The cavity mold includes a primary molded product holding portion configured to project into and retract from the first cavity, on a parting line of the primary mold.

Abstract: A monitor apparatus includes a display panel housed in a housed position, a driving section, a detecting section, and a controlling section. The driving section includes a gear transmission mechanism for driving the display panel and causes the display panel to perform a first operation in which the display panel is moved from the housed position to an upright position via a horizontal position and a second operation in which the display panel is lowered from the upright position and is drawn into the housed position via the horizontal position. The detecting section detects when an external force is applied to the display panel placed in the upright position. When the detecting section detects that an external force is applied, the controlling section causes the driving section to drive the display panel in a direction in which the external force was applied.

Abstract: A monitor system includes a display panel, a storage case receiving the display panel, a support member movable in the storage case, arm members, first guides in the storage case, and second guides in the support member. The support member rotatably supports the lower end of the display panel. Each arm member has a first supporting point, a second supporting point, and an intermediate supporting point. Each arm member is connected to the display panel through the first supporting point. The second supporting points of the arm members are engaged with the first guides. The intermediate supporting points thereof are engaged with the second guides. In the monitor system with this structure, when the support member is moved forward, the display panel can be rotated upward with a relatively small force such that the display panel is brought from a horizontal posture to a raised posture.

Abstract: A detachable connector is provided in which a male connector unit mounted to a movable panel is attachable to and detachable from a female connector unit mounted to a main body. In a pair of first and second female terminals, the first female terminal which has a longer distance to an axis of rotation of the movable panel includes a sloped portion for being elastically in contact with a leading-end corner of a convex contact of the male connector unit from obliquely above, and the second female terminal includes a contact portion for being elastically in contact with the side surface of the convex contact from below. When the male connector unit is attached to the female connector unit, the sloped portion is in contact with the convex contact at a position that is more distant from the movable panel than the contact portion.
