Patent number: 7918199Abstract: In a V-type engine, intake and exhaust rocker arms in each bank are arranged in a substantially inverted-V-shape in a plan view, so that side end portions of corresponding intake and exhaust push rods are positioned adjacent to each other. Slipper portions of first and second intake cam followers have end portions at one end along the axial direction of a camshaft protrude respectively in opposite directions to each other so that they face each other across an intake cam therebetween. Slipper portions of first and second exhaust cam followers have end portions at one end along the axial direction of the camshaft protrude respectively in opposite directions to each other so that they face each other across an exhaust cam therebetween. This reduces the distance between the push rods in each bank to provide a compact valve-operating device.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2008Date of Patent: April 5, 2011Assignee: Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Manabu Hashimoto, Keita Ito

Publication number: 20090246338Abstract: A method for the bulk preparation and individual distribution of fresh ginger base from a central location involves selecting fresh ginger root and comminuting it to produce comminuted ginger. A generally liquid mixture is also prepared, which contains at least water, natural sweetener, edible acid, and salt. A predetermined amount of the comminuted ginger is packaged in a substantially air-tight container. The comminuted ginger occupies more than approximately 90 percent of the internal volume of the container. The comminuted ginger is cooled to a temperature that is above its freezing point. A pre-selected amount of the generally liquid mixture is placed into a receptacle. The pre-selected amount is generally proportional to the predetermined amount of comminuted ginger. The container and the receptacle are distributed from the central location to a site of intended use.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 1, 2008Publication date: October 1, 2009Inventors: Yoshiji Kono, Keita Ito, Takeshi Kawakami
