  • Publication number: 20030015182
    Abstract: To augment the durability of a turbocharger. A hull and a deck of a personal watercraft are formed watertight and an opening of the deck is closed with a seat to form a body internal space. An intake duct for introducing atmospheric air from outside the body is provided in the space. An engine and a turbocharger connected to an exhaust manifold of the engine are provided in the space and the turbocharger is disposed higher than a body internal opening of the intake duct. A water jacket is formed in a casing of a turbine portion of the turbocharger and an oil jacket is formed in a bearing casing of the turbocharger, and cooling water is supplied to the water jacket and cooling oil is supplied to the oil jacket. The cooling water to the water jacket is supplied by a different turbocharger cooling water passage independent of any other cooling water passage.

  • Publication number: 20020161944
    Abstract: A programmable controller has a multi-purpose processor such as an MPU and an application specific control device such as an ASIC (application specific integrated circuit). When the MPU requests the APIC to execute a user program and the APIC is activated, the MPU executes an event process while the ASIC executes the requested user program. When the MPU requests the ASIC to execute a DMA transfer process in an input/output refresh process and the APIC is activated, the MPU executes an event process while the ASIC executes the requested DMA transfer process.

  • Patent number: 5839408
    Abstract: An exhaust control apparatus for a high level engine output and engine efficiency for obtaining a stable operation from a low speed to a high operating speed in a spark-ignition two-stroke internal combustion engine with an exhaust timing that can be adjusted. A spark-ignition two-stroke internal combustion engine is equipped with an exhaust channel that opens via an exhaust port into the cylinder, and an exhaust control valve that is supported for reciprocation along the cylinder centerline direction along the exhaust port and that allows at least the portion of the exhaust port on the cylinder head side to be blocked. A valve body depression forms a hollow from the cylinder head side to the crank side in the exhaust control valve by a bottom wall, side walls, and a control wall. A housing depression is provided that allows the above-mentioned exhaust control valve to be withdrawn from the abovementioned exhaust channel.

  • Patent number: 5781356
    Abstract: A levelness adjusting device includes a positioning a unit mounted on a support surface for an actuator unit which is fixed on a frame, in which said positioning a unit comprises a base screw hole to play a support point, several adjusting screw holes which are located on a same circumference centering the base screw hole and are opened at positions adjusted to an inclination of the shaft for rotating a mirror body and several screws threaded into the screw hole so as to fix the actuator unit on the frame. The screw is penetrated from the actuator unit front portion to the frame via the screw hole which is formed on a periphery edge of the actuator unit. The screw is threaded into the base screw hole and the corresponding screw hole, and the actuator unit is positioned on the frame.
