Abstract: A power transmission device is capable of switching the rotation direction of a drive shaft between positive rotation and negative rotation as power is transmitted to the drive shaft from a drive source via the power transmission device. To cause positive rotation of the drive shaft, only the positive rotation belt is tensed by the belt switching means, and rotation from the positive rotation drive pulley is transmitted to the drive shaft via the positive rotation shaft. To cause negative rotation of the drive shaft, only the negative rotation belt is tensed by the belt switching means, and rotation from the negative rotation drive pulley is transmitted to the drive shaft via the negative rotation shaft.

Abstract: When performing kick down, during re-acceleration after decelerating, the engine sometimes races unnecessarily, and a smooth acceleration feeling is not obtained. During control by a kick down mode, when accelerating after a throttle has been fully closed, a control target value is set so as not to pass to a Low side of a limit value of the control target value used during re-acceleration. As a result, racing of the engine is inhibited.

Abstract: A bicycle sprocket is provided with a sprocket body and a chain engagement structure. The chain engagement structure includes sprocket teeth defining chain rollers receiving troughs. At least two consecutive ones of the troughs include a driven-side surface and a non-driven-side surface. The driven-side surfaces each have a first chain roller contact points corresponding to a first radius of a first minimum contact circle when one of the chain rollers is positioned to fittingly contact the driven-side surface. The non-driven-side surfaces each have a second chain roller contact points disposed at a second position corresponding to a second radius of a second minimum contact circle when one of the chain rollers is positioned to fittingly contact the non-driven-side surface. The first radius is larger than the second radius. The driven-side surfaces have effective concavities that are equal to or less than the curvatures of the chain rollers.

Abstract: A machineroom-less elevator in which a counterweight is vertically moved behind a cage, with the cage and the counterweight being suspended in a jig back manner through a first and second diverting sheaves. In this machineroom-less elevator, a sufficiently large vertical stroke of the counterweight can be secured, while a durability of a hoist rope is improved. In addition, since no tensile difference is generated in respective parts of the hoist rope, vertical vibrations of the cage are prevented when the cage restarts a vertical movement. A traction sheave is disposed on one of right and left sidewalls of an elevator shaft. A first diverting sheave is disposed below and sufficiently apart from the traction sheave, and a second diverting sheave is disposed on a top of a rear wall of the elevator shaft.
