Abstract: There is provided an article inspection verification system provided in an article inspection line including a plurality of article inspection devices that determine whether an inspection target article is a non-defective product or a defective product. The article inspection verification system includes physical effect generators that generate a physical effect that causes the inspection target article to be determined to be the defective product while the inspection target article passes through inspection sections corresponding each of article inspection devices, and a physical effect control unit that stores generation conditions of the physical effect by the physical effect generators and drives the physical effect generators in accordance with the generation conditions during an operation of the article inspection line.

Abstract: There is provided an article inspection system including: an additional processing control unit that executes additional processing on an article determined to be defective among inspected articles, according to an inspection result of an article inspection unit, in which the additional processing control unit includes a quality state determination unit that determines which one of a plurality of preset quality states the inspection result corresponds to, and processing request selection means for selecting any one of first processing request information for requesting a working machine to perform first additional processing work by the working machine and second processing request information for requesting second manual additional processing work, according to a determination result of the quality state determination unit.

Abstract: In an exhaust system, exhaust manifolds are connected to two banks provided in a V-type engine of a vehicle, respectively, to which front pipes each having a catalytic converter are connected to the exhaust manifolds, respectively. A muffler is provided at an exhaust downstream side of the exhaust pipes, and a rear pipe is further connected to the exhaust downstream side of the muffler. The front pipe has its rear end portion located near a through hole formed in the rear pipe. A path length of one of the front pipes from the bank to the muffler is made shorter than that of the other front pipe.

Abstract: An exhaust system of a turbo-charged engine includes an exhaust pipe connected to a turbo-charged engine, a front muffler, and a rear muffler disposed in the exhaust pipe in an order of the front muffler and the rear muffler in a direction of flow of exhaust gas. Each muffler of the front muffler and the rear muffler includes an inner pipe. The inner pipe extends straight and continuously from an inlet to an outlet of each muffler and is not throttled in diameter between the inlet and the outlet of each muffler. Each muffler does not include an enlarged chamber in each muffler. The front muffler includes a high-frequency resonance chamber outside the inner pipe. The rear muffler includes a high-frequency resonance chamber and a low-frequency resonance chamber outside the inner pipe.

Abstract: A muffler is disposed in an exhaust pipe extending from an internal combustion engine along a bottom side of a vehicle. The muffler includes a cylindrical outer shell having a pair of openings defined at opposing axial ends of the outer shell and a pair of outer plates each secured to the corresponding one of the opposing ends of the outer shell. The muffler has an interior defined by the outer plates and the outer shell. The muffler further includes an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe each supported by the corresponding one of the outer plates and extending in the interior of the muffler. Each of the inlet and outlet pipes has a curved portion. The curved portion is accommodated in the interior of the muffler. Accordingly, the muffler is configured relatively simple and has improved durability.

Abstract: In a combination weighing apparatus, a plurality of feeders supply a subject to be weighed. A plurality of weighing hoppers receive the subject to be weighed which is supplied by a plurality of feeders. A plurality of weighing devices weigh the subject to be weighed which is received in each of the weighing hoppers. A plurality of weighing devices are fixed to the weighing base. Stands are provided in a circumferential direction at a predetermined interval, the stands respectively have leg portions standing up from a placing surface and supporting portions including horizontal portions connected to the leg portions, and the horizontal portions of the supporting portions are constituted by a plurality of metal supporting columns connected to each other in center portions. The weighing base is directly fixed to a lower surface of the center connecting portions of the stands.
