Abstract: A bearing holding structure has a substantially cylindrical sleeve and a plate-shaped pressing plate. A tubular portion of the sleeve includes a housing press-fit portion having an outer peripheral surface to be press-fit into a recess of an upper housing, and a bearing press-fit portion having an inner peripheral surface to be press-fit thereinto by a bearing. A pullout prevention portion that protrudes inward to prevent pullout of the bearing is formed at one end of the tubular portion, and the pressing plate is press-fit into the other end thereof.

Abstract: A fluid control valve includes a valve-side housing and an actuator-side housing. The valve-side housing includes a first facing plane portion that faces a second facing plane portion of the actuator-side housing and a first connection portion arranged at an outer side region of the first facing plane portion. The actuator-side housing includes the second facing plane portion and a second connection portion arranged at an outer side region of the second facing plane portion. The valve-side housing and the actuator-side housing are connected to each other via the first connection portion and the second connection portion such that a space is provided between the first facing plane portion and the second facing plane portion. The first facing plane portion of the valve-side housing includes a depression portion that is recessed in a direction away from the second facing plane portion of the actuator-side housing.

Abstract: A bearing holding structure 7 has a substantially cylindrical sleeve 71 and a plate-shaped pressing plate 77. A tubular portion 72 of the sleeve 71 includes a housing press-fit portion 73 having an outer peripheral surface to be press-fit into a recess 12 of an upper housing 11, and a bearing press-fit portion 74 having an inner peripheral surface to be press-fit thereinto by a bearing 6. A pullout prevention portion 75 that protrudes inward to prevent pullout of the bearing 6 is formed at one end of the tubular portion 72, and the pressing plate 77 is press-fit into the other end thereof.

Abstract: A valve opening and closing mechanism includes: an input shaft 2 driven by a power source; two or more output shafts 5, 6 respectively including valves 3, 4; power transmission members that transmit power from the input shaft 2 to the respective output shafts 5, 6 with varying a phase of the power; and preload application members that apply preloads respectively to the output shafts 5, 6 and the power transmission member in opposite directions. The output shafts 5, 6 may be separated from the power transmission member.

Abstract: Bearings 18 and 19 each are formed to have an inside diameter gradually extending toward two ends along an axial direction of a shaft 20 such that the inside diameter of the bearing is smaller at the center portion thereof and is larger at the two ends thereof.

Abstract: A thickness of a valve is set smaller than a distance (inter-seat distance) in a valve thickness direction from a first seat part to a second seat part, and hence a gap between the valve and the first seat part and a gap between the valve and the second seat part are reduced to suppress seat leakage with all a variation of dimension thereof.

Abstract: A valve 33 has a deformed circular shape such that a diameter in an axis orthogonal direction that is orthogonal to a rotation center axis X is longer than that in an axial direction that is parallel to the rotation center axis X, and a front surface of a semicircle on one side of the valve and a rear surface of a semicircle on the other side thereof about the rotation center axis X as a boundary are abutted against valve seats 34a.

Abstract: An actuator unit 10 and a valve unit housing 31 provided with a fluid passage 34 are formed separately, and a water cooling passage 29 is disposed therebetween; components such as a bearing 24, a return spring 28, and a gear 23 that directly couples the actuator unit 10 to a valve shaft 32 are disposed on the side of the actuator unit 10 that is interposed by the water cooling passage 29.

Abstract: A plate 36 is press-fitted on the outer peripheral surface of a rod 32 to eliminate a gap between the rod 32 and the plate 36, and further the pressurization produced by the pressure of gas leaking from a gas passage 38 and the load of a washer 26 is caused to act on the rod 32 to thereby positively abut the plate 36 united with the rod 32 against a bush 35.

Abstract: An assembly method includes a step of press-fitting a second valve 27 to a valve shaft 29 to which a first valve 25 is press-fitted and secured while measuring and adjusting a distance L2 so that it becomes equal to a distance L1. Thus, the first valve 25 and second valve 27 are press-fitted to the valve shaft 29 and those components are swaged together so that the first and second valves are secured to the valve shaft, and oil is placed in a press-fitted portion. When components, such as the first valve 25, are sintered parts, oil contained in the sintered parts themselves is used for increasing a joining force that occurs in the press-fitted portion.

Abstract: Powder produced by abrasion due to sliding between a brush and a commutator is prevented from moving toward a rotor. A recess is provided between the rotor and a slide face of the brush and the commutator, where powder produced by abrasion at the brush may enter into a motor and increase sliding resistance of the rotor. Thus, there is no such powder produced by abrasion entering into the motor as increasing sliding resistance of the rotor.

Abstract: One current passing circuit board is constituted by one metal plate in which a continuous current passing pattern that is to be separated in a plurality of current passing patterns is formed, and molded resin in which the metal plate is inserted. The current passing circuit board is pressed to eliminate the unnecessary portions of the above mentioned current patterns, thereby the one current passing circuit board is formed in a state where the current passing pattern continuously formed is separated in the normal forms.

Abstract: Particle trapping means for trapping worn particles of a commutator is provided in a power source side case mounted on a motor case of a DC motor.
