Patent number: 7361119Abstract: A radial inner end of a retainer is spaced radially outwardly from a radial outer end of a sliding-contact region, and with this construction the axial movement of each needle roller is limited not by the retainer but by an inner ring, and a restriction flange. Therefore, a large axial force developing in the needle rollers is received by the inner ring and the restriction flange, and as a result, the retainer having low rigidity can be satisfactorily used. Therefore, any suitable material such as a synthetic resin can be selected for the retainer, and besides the wall thickness of the retainer can be made small.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2007Date of Patent: April 22, 2008Assignee: TS CorporationInventors: Minoru Tanaka, Masakazu Kurita, Koji Nakamura

Patent number: 7361118Abstract: In a gear mechanism, inner gear teeth and outer gear teeth are formed of high-tooth. An engagement ratio of the inner and outer gear teeth is configured so as to be 2.0 or more, whereby a load can be transferred between the inner and outer teeth via a continuous gear engagement of at least two pairs of gear teeth thereof. Accordingly, a contact face pressure and a bending stress occurring to inner and outer gear teeth can be reduced, the limitation of the durability of the gear mechanism due to the large difference of durability between the inner and outer gear teeth can be improved, and the necessity of increasing hardness of the inner gear teeth can be lessened.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2006Date of Patent: April 22, 2008Assignees: NABCO Limited, TS CorporationInventors: Teruhisa Ando, Masataka Kojima, Masahiro Tsunemi, Hidekazu Okufuji

Patent number: 7175133Abstract: A wing driving apparatus is made up of a flight controller part for generating a drive signal, first and second servo actuators, a first controller unit having a first drive circuit, and a second controller unit having a second drive circuit. The first controller unit includes a follower signal generator circuit for generating a follower signal. The second servo actuator includes a solenoid valve for invalidating a control to the second serve actuator based on the drive signal from the second drive circuit in response to the follower signal, whereby the second second servo actuator follows the steering wing when the first drive circuit is able to operate the first servo actuator to drive the steering wing.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 2003Date of Patent: February 13, 2007Assignee: TS CorporationInventors: Teruaki Tanaka, Toshio Kamimura

Patent number: 7093733Abstract: An activating device activates a cover for the opening face of a container. Pivot arms are fixed to a pivot unit equipped with an electric motor through a reduction gear at one ends, and fixed to plate springs at the other ends. One end portions of the plate springs are fixed to the respective front and rear portions of the cover, the other end portions thereof are fixed to the other ends of the pivot arms. The resiliency of the plate spring is set lower in the vertical direction of the container. The plate spring is bent from its other end portion toward its one end portion at substantially 90° or larger of bending angle. The plate spring is formed so that it bends toward the inside of the center of the cover between the pivot arm and the cover.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2004Date of Patent: August 22, 2006Assignee: TS CorporationInventors: Yoshihide Nishimura, Toshihiro Yudate

Patent number: 6942066Abstract: A height of a case body (54) for covering an actuating device (1) is so designed as to be lower than a height of an operator. The actuating device (1) and the case body (54) will not largely project from a rooftop (50) of the building in which an ascending and descending cage (52) is disposed, and cost for the case body (54) can be lowered.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2000Date of Patent: September 13, 2005Assignee: TS CorporationInventors: Hiroyuki Miyoshi, Takashi Kuga

Patent number: 6772671Abstract: There is provided an electrohydraulic motor that has a spool valve 110 for switching from each of drive positions (111, 112), in each of which a corresponding one of a main oil passage 230 and a return oil passage 240 is connected to a hydraulic actuator 130, to a neutral position, in which the hydraulic actuator 130 and each of the main oil passage 230 and the return oil passage 240 are disconnected, and vice versa. There is also provided a connection switch valve 140, which is connected to the main oil passage 230 and the return oil passage 240, for changing the connection between the main oil passage 230 and the return oil passage 240 in the neutral position 113. In response to an operation of the spool valve 110, the connection switch valve 140 connects the main oil passage 230 to the return oil passage 240 in the neutral position 113 and also disconnects the main oil passage 230 from the return oil passage 240 in the drive positions (111, 112).Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2002Date of Patent: August 10, 2004Assignee: TS CorporationInventors: Youji Asano, Nobuaki Shimizu
