Abstract: The conventional linear drive apparatus has the problem that in constructing a linear motor of a multiphase structure by connecting a plurality of armature units, the length of the armature becomes longer in proportion to the number of the phases, thus limiting the locations where the apparatus can be installed. The problem is solved by a linear drive apparatus comprising a plurality of armature units 3 formed by a magnetic material on which a conductor coil 4 is disposed, and an armature comprising an arrangement of the armature units 3. The armature units 3 comprise a plurality of opposing portions having opposing magnetic pole teeth. The magnetic pole teeth of adjacent opposing portions are arranged in an interdigitated manner. A secondary member 6 is disposed between magnetic pole teeth of the opposing portions. The armature units 3 comprise the coil 4 arranged on opposite sides thereof in an alternating manner.

The fumigating method which comprises providing an argon gas tank (1) and a PO tank (8) filled with liquid propylene oxide, introducing an argon gas fed from the argon gas tank (1) and liquid propylene oxide fed from the PO tank (8) in advance to a gas-liquid mixer (5) for mixture, introducing the resultant gas-liquid mixture from the gas-liquid mixer (5) to a vaporizer (25) for vaporization, and then introducing the resultant gas mixture to a place (31) to be fumigated; and an apparatus for conducting such a method.

Abstract: A linear motor for generating a linear motion in a linear direction, has a plurality of first members, each of which includes an electromagnetic coil for generating a first magnetic field, and a magnetic core (magnetically permeable) having magnetic surfaces being opposite to each other so that the first magnetic field passes a space between the magnetic surfaces, and a second member arranged in the spaces to be relatively movable linearly with respect to a combination of the first members to generate the linear motion in the linear direction, and including a magnet polarized in a polarizing direction to generate a second magnetic field.

Abstract: Disclosed herewith a compact linear motor provided with a plurality of magnetic pole teeth and used to increase the thrust force by canceling a magnetic attractive force working between the primary member and the secondary member. The linear motor comprises a primary member and a secondary member. The primary member includes cores formed with a magnetic material and an electromagnetic coil wound on the cores while the secondary member supported so as to be capable of moving relatively with respect to the primary member with a gap therebetween. In the linear motor, the coil that is wound commonly on the cores is also disposed between adjacent magnetic pole teeth.

Abstract: A fuel transfer pipe and a cylinder head of an engine in which a fuel injection device is restricted from being separated from each other by a restricting member. A pressing member is interposed between the fuel transfer pipe and the cylinder head to receive a restricting force of the restricting member presses the fuel transfer pipe to a side opposing the cylinder head and presses the fuel injection device to a side of the cylinder head by a reaction force against the restricting force.

Abstract: A nozzle holder includes a support portion, which supports a downstream end surface of a planar wall of an injection hole plate. The injection hole plate provided with injection holes is welded to one of the valve body and the nozzle holder. The planar wall may be curved and may be thus convex in an upstream direction toward a downstream end opening such that the planar wall is urged against a peripheral edge of the downstream end opening of the valve body. The planar wall may include a reinforcing rib located radially outward of the injection hole.

Abstract: A formation of deposits on a fuel injector is suppressed by controlling the temperature of the nozzle holder of the fuel injector around the nozzle to maintain at least a part of the fuel remaining on the nozzle holder surface after the fuel injection in a liquid state, to thereby hold precursors of the deposits in the liquid fuel to permit the precursor to be blown out from the nozzle holder surface by a subsequent fuel injection flow.

Abstract: An EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) gas assist injection system for an internal combustion engine is provided which includes fuel injectors, sub-exhaust valves, and EGR valves. Each of the sub-exhaust valves is mechanically opened in synchronization with the start of an exhaust process of a corresponding one of engine cylinders. Each of the EGR valves is electrically opened to supply part of exhaust gas discharged through one of the subexhaust valves from one of the engine cylinders which is in the exhaust process to mix it with fuel sprayed into another of the engine cylinders which is in an intake process for promoting atomization of the fuel spray and achieving EGR.

Abstract: Disclosed is an indication device of a gauging apparatus comprising an indicator panel having, on its surface, indication marks including patterns and characters, and a black light source for illuminating the surface of said indicator panel to excite a phosphor. Background portions of the indicator panel other than the indication marks are printed with a phosphor-containing paint which differs in color when it is exposed to light from the black light source from when it is exposed to ordinary light unable to excite the phosphor. The indication marks are printed with a white color paint which does not contain a phosphor and the phosphor-containing paint assumes a dark color when it is exposed to the ordinary light and assumes a bright color when it is exposed to light from the black light source.
