Abstract: A multilayer semiconductor device includes first wirings extending in a first direction and arranged adjacent to each other in a second direction. Dummy wirings are arranged between the first wirings and the second wiring at crossing points between first virtual linear lines extending in a third direction and second virtual linear lines extending in a fourth direction. The third and fourth directions are neither parallel nor orthogonal to the first and second directions. The dummy wirings have a first, a second, and a third dummy wiring. Centers of the second and third dummy wirings are nearest to a center of the first dummy wiring relative to others of the dummy wirings. The respective centers of the first, second, and third dummy wirings are aligned on a third virtual linear line extending in a fifth direction neither parallel to nor perpendicular to the first and second directions.

Abstract: A fuel-filter abnormality detection device is used for a subject filter provided in a fuel supply device of an engine to filtrate a fuel. The fuel-filter abnormality detection device includes a first filter attachable downstream of the subject filter in fuel flow. A filtration capacity of the first filter is smaller than a filtration capacity of the subject filter, and the first filter traps a foreign matter on a downstream side of the subject filter to cause a change in fuel pressure indicating an abnormality of the subject filter. The fuel-filter abnormality detection device may include a bypass passage through which the fuel bypasses the first filter, a bypass control valve configured to allow the fuel to flow through the bypass passage when the abnormality of the subject filter is detected, and a second filter filtrating the fuel flowing through the bypass passage.

Abstract: A cylinder body includes a cylinder hole and a discharge flow passage. The cylinder hole receives a plunger and forms a pressurizing chamber in one axial end portion thereof. The discharge flow passage is connected to the pressurizing chamber and is adapted to guide and discharge the pressurized fuel from the pressurizing chamber to an outside of the housing. A connection opening of the discharge flow passage is formed in a hole wall of the cylinder hole. A pressure is applied to a predetermined prestressing subject area in the hole wall of the cylinder hole and a passage wall of the discharge flow passage through autofrettage to generate a residual compression stress in the predetermined prestressing subject area and thereby to form a prestressed area of a final product. The prestressing subject area includes an inner peripheral edge of the connection opening.
