  • Patent number: 5267121
    Abstract: In an electronic equipment having an exhaust duct for exhausting air heated in the equipment, and a cable lead-in portion which is disposed adjacent to the exhaust duct and through which external connector cables is to be led, a partition is disposed between the exhaust duct and the cable lead-in portion. The partition is movable so as to vary the area of an exhaust opening of the exhaust duct and the area of a lead-in opening of the cable lead-in portion.

  • Patent number: 4858713
    Abstract: A power-assisted steering system includes a changeover valve unit comprising an input shaft to be rotated by the driver's steering effort applied thereto, an output shaft operatively connected to a hydraulic power cylinder associated with the steering system, a valve assembly for controlling the supply of fluid under pressure from a hydraulic pump to the power cylinder in response to relative rotation between the input and output shafts; and a hydraulic reaction mechanism for applying a reaction force to the input shaft in accordance with a hydraulic reaction pressure applied thereto. The reaction mechanism includes a reaction fluid chamber to be constantly applied with a predetermined small quantity of fluid under pressure and to be applied with a hydraulic pressure caused by relative rotation between the input and output shafts through a throttle. The system is arranged to increase the hydraulic pressure in the reaction fluid chamber in accordance with an increase of travel speed of the vehicle.
