  • Patent number: 8646270
    Abstract: Turbines and compressors, which constitute superchargers, are disposed in series on an exhaust gas passage and an air intake passage, respectively. The supercharger is equipped with a supercharger rotation sensor, which transmits a detection signal obtained according to the rotation of the compressor to a control device, a bypass passage, which bypasses exhaust gas from the upstream side to the downstream side of the turbine, and a bypass valve, which regulates the flow rate of exhaust gas flowing through the bypass passage. Control device regulates the rotational speed of the compressors in a high-efficiency range by producing a control signal based on the detection signal from the supercharger rotation sensor, and sending the control signal to the bypass valve.

  • Patent number: 7835851
    Abstract: There is well known that the more the timing of fuel injection is advanced, the more the start ability of an engine is improved. However, with regard to the conventional fuel injection system, when a stopping process of the engine is performed, a timer piston determining timing of fuel injection remains at a position at which the piston exists at the time that the stopping process is performed. Then, at the time of next starting of the engine, the timer piston does not often exist in the advanced angle side and the start ability may be poor. For solving this problem, an engine control module (ECM) 21 advances a timer piston 52 and stops fuel injection of a fuel injection pump 40 at the time that actual phase difference C reaches stopping target phase difference Z so as to stop an engine 20.

  • Patent number: 6607798
    Abstract: Center cores are formed by extrusion-molding ABS resin. Seven pieces of the center cores, which are juxtaposed to each other in the horizontal direction, are supplied by a pultruder, and reinforcing long-fibers impregnated with an unsaturated polyester resin are allowed to pass through dispersion guides and squeezing nozzles, to thus squeezing-mold a fiber-reinforced composite hollow structure having FRP made legs. A final squeezing nozzle is disposed in a cross head die through a cooling jacket, and the hollow structure thus molded is allowed to pass therethrough to be covered with the ABS resin in a state in which the outer periphery of the hollow structure is heated. The hollow structure thus covered is subjected to cooled-sizing through a plurality of horizontal and vertical pairs of rollers, and then cured in a hot curing tank. The surface covered with the ABS resin is subjected to a surface-treatment of imparting irregularities for giving an antislipping function to the surface.

  • Patent number: 6406283
    Abstract: A drawing device for handling a wide range of drawable thermoplastic resin materials including a first pressurizing tank and first buffer tank on an upstream side, and a second pressurizing tank and second buffer tank on a downstream side are disposed along a drawing tank having pressurized steam and a discharge unit connected to it. A medium supply and discharge may be connected to each of the first and second pressurizing tanks, and the first and second buffer tanks. Opening members may be disposed on respective upstream and downstream ports along the drawing tank. Small amounts of pressurizing medium may then be allowed to flow into the drawing tank through upstream and downstream ports. Next, material may be supplied from the upstream port into the drawing tank where pressurized steam may be introduced in airtight conditions, and then drawn to the downstream port, thereby producing a drawable thermoplastic resin material.

  • Patent number: 5909407
    Abstract: A semiconductor memory device, such as a DRAM, includes a word line multi-selection circuit. A row decoder generates a word line selecting signal for selecting a read-out word line for use in the current cycle to read information from a selected memory cell. The word line selecting signal is also used to select a write-back word line which was used in the previous cycle to read cell information and is used in the current cycle to write back cell information. The word line multi-selection circuit includes a register for temporarily storing the cell information read from the selected memory cell and also for providing, in the current cycle, information read in the previous cycle in order to perform the write-back operation.
