Abstract: A dry multiple-disk clutch for transmitting power from the crankshaft of a motorcycle to a transmission input shaft and cutting off power transmission includes an outer clutch member interlocked with the crankshaft so as to be driven for rotation, a plurality of driving friction disks interlocked with the outer clutch member, a plurality of driven friction disks alternated with the driving friction disks and interlocked with the transmission input shaft, and a pressure member disposed opposite to the outer clutch member with the driving and the driven friction disks arranged alternately between the outer clutch member and the pressure member, and capable of moving in opposite axial direction to compress the driving and the driven friction disks together and to disengage the driven friction disks from the driving friction disks.

Abstract: Operating side link members corresponding to working side link members of a working device are provided in a device for operating working equipment. Rotation of the working side link members is detected by a rotation sensor. A motor is driven in response to a signal from the rotation sensor. A differential detecting portion has a working side movable portion driven both in a forward direction and a reverse direction by the motor, an operating side movable portion that is shiftable both in the forward direction and the reverse direction within a range from a neutral position to the working side movable portion, and a differential sensor for detecting a relative shift from the neutral position of the operating side movable portion to the working side movable portion.

Abstract: In hydraulic heavy equipment, a working device has a boom, an arm and a bucket. An operating device has the same link structure as in the working device. By operating the working device, control valves are operated and the working device functions in a similar manner to the operating device. The movement of the working device is transmitted, and the control valves are brought back to the neutral position. Therefore, the working device follows up the operating device, and functions in the same manner as the operating device.
