  • Patent number: 7686380
    Abstract: A feeding unit for supplying electrical power along a cable is coupled to a slide door. When the slide door is substantially closed, a protrusion is vertically restricted by a groove to vertically restrict an end of a connecting cable by a holder. In contrast, when the slide door is open, the protrusion that is accommodated in the groove is capable of moving vertically and horizontally.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5919030
    Abstract: An electric fan comprises: a radial impeller for expelling the air trapped therein out of the impeller; a diffuser having a multiplicity of air passages separated by air guides, the air passages adapted to receive the air expelled from the impeller; a fan case for covering the impeller and the air guides; at least one throughhole which is formed in the fan case for each of the air passages; and a silencer equipped with a multiplicity of silencer cavities each having a predetermined volume and communicating with a corresponding one of the air passages, the silencer covering the fan case. The silencer is provided either on top of or beneath the fan case. Because the volumes of these silencer cavities may be chosen arbitrarily such that the silencer cavities may absorb noise caused by the interference between the impeller and the air passages, even audible noise may be suppressed sufficiently.
