Abstract: Deformation is depressed where cover and connectors are integrally formed from a resin. A core body includes first and second body portions coupled to each other in the axial direction. The first body portion has a tubular shape extending in the axial direction, and a space surrounded by the inner peripheral surface thereof forms a housing space for a member that slides in the axial direction along the inner peripheral surface. The second body portion's outer peripheral surface and a bobbin body portion inner peripheral surface contact each other, and the first body portion outer peripheral surface and a target end portion inner peripheral surface, which is the bobbin body portion's end portion on the side in a direction from the second body portion toward the first body portion in the axial direction, are spaced from each other in at least a part of the region in the circumferential direction.

Abstract: An inexpensive solenoid drive device with high magnetic performance is implemented in which a portion accommodating a plunger and a portion attracting the plunger are integrated with a core as a ferromagnetic body. A core includes a magnetic flux limiting portion that is located in a region on the biasing direction side of a first imaginary boundary plane and that is formed so as to have a small thickness in a radial direction, and an increased diameter portion that is formed so that its thickness the radial direction is increased in a continuous or stepwise manner from the first imaginary boundary plane toward the opposite biasing direction side. The increased diameter portion has a recessed portion whose outer surface is recessed toward a radial inner surface with respect to a predetermined increased diameter reference line in axial section of the core.

Abstract: An endless metal belt including a ring formed by laminating endless metal plates; and multiple elements continuously attached to the ring. Each of the elements has a body, a head connected to the body by a pillar, and slots formed between the body and the head on left and right sides of the pillar, respectively, for receiving the ring. The elements satisfy the equations (h/t)<1 and (S/h)>40, where h is a width of the slots, t is a plate thickness of the elements, and S is an area of the head.
