Patent number: 7426882Abstract: A gear-shifting device 50 for a manual transmission comprises a shift arm 53, which is rotatable in correspondence to the shift operation of a change-lever L, and shift pieces 41, 43 and 45, each of which shifts in correspondence to the rotation of the shift arm 53, with this shifting of the shift piece 41 achieving a gear shift. The gear-shifting device 50 further comprises a load-attenuating mechanism 90, which includes a spline groove 51b, a fitting room 91, a steel ball 92 and a coned spring 93. In the attenuating mechanism, the steel ball 92 is pushed to the spline groove 51b by the coned spring 93, allowing the shift arm 53 to rotate with respect to the shift selector shaft 51 to reduce the load acting on the change-lever L from synchro-sleeves 71, 73 and 75.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2004Date of Patent: September 23, 2008Assignee: Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Akifumi Murai, Susumu Saitou

Patent number: 7258291Abstract: A destructive device, wherein treated material (1) including a foam body is pre-compressed in thickness direction and fed to the opposed part of a pair of compression rolls (21, 22), partition walls forming independent air bubbles in the foam body is destructed by the compression rolls (21, 22) and foam gas is arrested into a cover (3) installed on the outlet side of the compression rolls (21, 22), the foam gas is liquefied and separated by a cooling and liquefying device (6) through a cooling device (15) after pressurized, together with medium gas (41) for collection, by a pressurizing device (5), and the medium gas for collection from which the foam gas is separated is returned into the cover (3), whereby, since the foam gas is liquefied and separated in pressurized state by the cooling and liquefying device (6) by arresting the foam gas in high density inside the cover (3), the device can be remarkably downsized and simplified, and a device cost and an operation cost can also be remarkably reduced.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2003Date of Patent: August 21, 2007Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Mikio Yotsumoto, Yutaka Matsuda, Susumu Saitou, Masayuki Makino, Kazuo Kimura, Yasuo Sasaki

Patent number: 6532144Abstract: In an electric double layer capacitor, at least three frame-shaped gaskets are stacked. A cell member of a pair of polarized electrodes sandwiching a porous separator is accommodated within a central gasket so as to be sandwiched between a pair of current collectors. Upper and lower frame shaped gaskets are adhered on both side edges of the central gasket such that the current collectors are sandwiched and held with two gaskets confronting to seal the inside of the central gasket. A step portion is formed in an inner peripheral end surface of at least one of the gaskets confronting such that each of the side edges of the collectors is received in this step portion, whereby making it easy to position the current collector in the gasket. This step portion also makes it possible to bond the current collector to the gasket at a low stress.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2001Date of Patent: March 11, 2003Assignee: NEC TOKIN CorporationInventors: Masako Ohya, Susumu Saitou
