  • Patent number: 8939045
    Abstract: A control pedal assembly includes a pedal bracket, a control pedal, an urging device and a communicating portion. The pedal bracket is secured to a vehicle body and has a housing space. The control pedal is swingably supported by a support shaft disposed in the housing space of the pedal bracket. The urging device is to urge the control pedal toward a rear of a vehicle body. The communicating portion is provided at a rear of the support shaft relative to the vehicle body between the control pedal and the pedal bracket to connect a space above the control pedal and a space below the control pedal.

  • Patent number: 4086661
    Abstract: A cylindrical magnetic domain element is disclosed which utilizes a cylindrical magnetic domain (a magnetic bubble) produced by the application of a bias magnetic field to a magnetic sheet of orthoferrite, garnet or the like. Propagation patterns for the cylindrical magnetic domain are composed of a plurality of sets formed on one side of the magnetic sheet and have a multilayer construction with a non-magnetic film of SiO.sub.2 or the like between the layers. This multilayer construction allows for the formation of a propagation pattern having a relatively narrow pattern gap. Further, the propagation pattern is disclosed as having uniaxial magnetic anisotropy, which facilitates the magnetic bubble propagation and ensures retaining of the magnetic bubble.
