Abstract: A vehicle front portion structure includes: a rear end part that constitutes a rear part of a front side frame and has an inclination portion which is inclined downward toward a vehicle rearward direction; a fixation portion that is provided on the inclination portion; and a lower arm that is connected to the fixation portion. The inclination portion includes: a bottom section that is inclined downward toward a vehicle rearward direction; and a protrusion section that protrudes further upward than the bottom section. The protrusion section extends toward a vehicle rearward direction from a vehicle forward position further than the fixation portion, and a middle side in a vehicle width direction of the protrusion section protrudes further upward than an outside in the vehicle width direction of the protrusion section.

Abstract: A system and method of operation for golf cars or the like employing electrically operated fuel injected engines for that can be operated in substantially the same manner as electrically powered cars to effect rapid restarting of the engine after stopped and with the main switch left on without excessively depleting the battery power.

Abstract: The present invention provides a high-strength thin steel sheet drawable and excellent in a shape fixation property and a method of producing the same. For the steel sheet, on a plane at the center of the thickness of a steel sheet, the average ratio of the X-ray strength in the orientation component group of {100}<011> to {223}<110> to random X-ray diffraction strength is 2 or more and the average ratio of the X-ray strength in three orientation components of {554}<225>, {111}<112> and {111}<110> to random X-ray diffraction strength is 4 or less. The arithmetic average of the roughness Ra of at least one of the surfaces is 1 to 3.5 ?m; the surfaces of the steel sheet are covered with a composition having a lubricating effect; and the friction coefficient of the steel sheet surfaces at 0 to 200° C. is 0.05 to 0.2.

Abstract: A golf car operated by a prime mover under the control of an accelerator control a brake capable of being set in a locked condition for retaining the car from movement. Upon original operation of the prime mover the brake is not released until after a predetermined condition is established to insure against unwanted movement of the car before the prime mover is able to drive the car in the intended direction.

Abstract: The present invention provides a thin steel sheet, for automobile use, excellent in notch-fatigue strength, and a method for producing said steel sheet. Specifically, the present invention is a thin steel sheet for automobile use excellent in notch-fatigue strength, said steel sheet containing, in mass, 0.01 to 0.3% C, 0.01 to 2% Si, 0.05 to 3% Mn, 0.1% or less P, 0.01% or less S and 0.005 to 1% Al, with the balance consisting of Fe and unavoidable impurities, characterized in that, on a plane at an arbitrary depth within 0.

Abstract: A control method of strip travel for ensuring, in a tandem rolling operation for metal strips, stable positioning of rolled work during the rolling process including the rolling of the leading and trailing ends of the work, and a tandem rolling mill in which the method is used are disclosed.

Abstract: An antitheft device for a car stereo mounted in the dashboard of a motor vehicle having bores extending through the front panel of its cabinet, the device comprising (i) release pins insertable through the respective bores, (ii) a latch plate movably attached to a side face of the cabinet to engage with a portion of the dashboard and disengageable therefrom be being moved by contact with the release pins when the release pins are inserted through the respective bores to thereby render the car stereo removable from the dashboard, (iii) a blocking plate for openably blocking a space between the latch plate and the bores, (iv) electromagnet form opening the blocking plate with an electromagnetic force, and (v) control circuit for controlling the operation of the electromagnet to hold the circuit out of operation at least while the engine key of the motor vehicle is not turned to "ON" position.
