Abstract: A cycle-side system (20) is formed by duct connecting a compressor (21), a heat exchanger (30), a demoisturizer (22), and an expansion device (23) in that order. The compressor (21) draws in room air and supply air for ventilation and compresses the same. The compressed air exchanges heat with exhaust air for ventilation in the heat exchanger (30), thereby being cooled. Water vapor in the cooled, compressed air is removed in the demoisturizer (22). The demoisturizer (22) is provided with a separation membrane and separates water vapor in the compressed air without the occurrence of condensation. Thereafter, the compressed air is expanded in the expansion device (23) to change into low-temperature air. The low-temperature air is supplied into a room. On the other hand, the heat exchanger (30) is fed exhaust air cooled in a humidifying cooler (41).

Abstract: A rear luggage compartment structure for a hatchback vehicle includes a trunk board comprising front and rear boards which is changeable between a normal position where the front and rear board are laid on front and rear parts of a rear luggage compartment floor, respectively, and a built-up position where the rear board is held upright and the front board is situated horizontally between a rear seat and the rear board held upright so as thereby to create a luggage storage space over the front board that is accessible from a passenger compartment and a secret box under the front board.

Abstract: A portable trimmer capable of applying to a throttle valve a different operation from that according to a throttle operation lever. The portable trimmer includes a brake device for braking the movement of a cutting blade that is released in conjunction with a throttle operation. The portable trimmer includes a throttle wire having a first throttle wire extending between a throttle operation lever and a swingable member, and a second wire portion extending between a swingable member and a throttle to provide a first operation transmission path for transmitting the movement of the throttle operation lever to the throttle valve. The portable trimmer further includes an additional operation lever for performing a different operation from said throttle operation, and a pulley pivotally attached to the swingable member.

Abstract: A commercial power supply is connected to a rectifier DB through a low-pass filter LPF. A smoothing capacitor Cs, a series circuit consisting of voltage-dividing capacitors C1 and C2, and a series circuit consisting of switching elements Q1 and Q2 are connected in parallel to the output of the rectifier DB. Diodes D1 and D2 are connected in reverse parallel to the switching elements Q1 and Q2, respectively. A drive circuit DR is connected to the switching elements Q1 and Q2. Between a connecting point that is between the voltage-dividing capacitors C1 and C2 and a connecting point that is between the switching elements Q1 and Q2, a load circuit R consisting of a parallel circuit is connected. The parallel circuit includes an inductor Lo, a fluorescent lamp LT, and a resonance capacitor C4.
