Abstract: In the vehicle body structure including a body frame and a stabilizer which is supported by the body frame and connected to left and right front suspension arms, the body frame has an upper frame and a cross member connected to the upper frame, and the upper frame and the cross member are located upward of the front suspension arms. The cross member is connected to an air guide panel for redirecting ambient air flowing from the front of the vehicle body, and the air guide panel is arranged in a position overlapping the stabilizer in a vertical direction.

Abstract: An inner panel of a vehicle hood has a 0.2% proof stress of 70 MPa or more and 120 MPa or less after assembling of the inner panel and completion of bake coating. An outer panel has a 0.2% proof stress of 150 MPa or more. The outer panel is made of JIS 5000 or 6000 series aluminum alloy plate material, and the inner panel is made of a JIS 3000 series aluminum alloy plate material. The inner panel has hat-shaped main beads arranged in a center portion. An elongation amount (L?L0)/L0 determined by cross-section line length L of a concave or convex portion of the main bead projected from the surface of the center portion and a line length L0 of a line segment linearly connecting ends of the portion is 0.4 ? to 0.6 ? to a breaking elongation ? in uniaxial tensile deformation.

Abstract: Structure of a vehicle body rear part in which a back door opening section around which a closed cross-sectional structure is provided wherein the vehicle body rear part includes rear lamp house panels, a back panel section and a back door opening section arranged to incline obliquely such that a lower part is located further toward a vehicle back than an upper part. In the structure, a tail end member extending along a vehicle width direction is coupled to lower side corner portions of the closed cross-sectional structure located on both the left and right sides of the back door opening section, swelling sections extending further outward than the lower side corner portions of the closed cross-sectional structure are provided on both the left and right sides of the tail end member, and the swelling sections are joined to the rear lamp house panels and the back panel section.

Abstract: A rotor is provided for a permanent magnet type rotating machine having a stator 1 with armature windings 11. The rotor 3 includes a rotor core 31 and a plurality of permanent magnets 32 arranged in the rotor core 31 so as to negate magnetic flux of the armature windings 11 passing through interpoles 3b. The rotor 3 is constructed so that the average of magnetic flux in an air gap 2 between the rotor 3 and the stator 1, which is produced by the permanent magnets 32 at the armature windings' de-energized, ranges from 0.1 [T] to 0.7 [T] and the ratio (Lq/Ld) of self-inductance of the magnetic portion in a hard-magnetizing direction (q-axis) to self-inductance in an easy-magnetizing direction (d-axis) under a rated load condition ranges from 0.1 to 0.8. Under these conditions, it is possible to realize the rotating machine which operates as an induction machine at the machine's starting and also operates as an synchronous machine at the rated driving due to smooth pull-in.

Abstract: A plurality of rows of sheet loading stations for receiving a supply of sheets to be collated are spaced in parallel with one another. A sheet receiving and transfering line having a plurality of sheet receiving stations aligned for receiving sheets from the sheet loading stations is arranged. Sheet feeding mechanism is provided for repeatedly feeding sheets all together from each row of sheet loading stations to the sheet receiving stations. A mechanism for transferring sheets received at sheet receiving stations to the respective next sheet receiving stations on the sheet receiving and transfering line in order to receive sheets fed from another row of sheet loading stations according to a predetermined collation sequence. Even in case a number of pages should be collated, the reduction of the horizontal dimension of the collator is achieved so as to economize space for instaling the collator.

Abstract: A paper feeding apparatus is provided wherein a paper supply shelf with a stack of paper sheets, from which the uppermost paper sheet of the stack is picked up, is guided for vertical movement and urged upwardly by the resilient force of a spring, and the upward movement of the paper supply shelf is limited by the engagement of the uppermost sheet of the stack with a stopper. The shelf is intermittently pushed down for a predetermined constant stroke by a click and ratchet arrangement. The picking up operation of the uppermost paper sheet of the stack is interlocked with the intermittently pushing down operation of the paper supply shelf, so that when the uppermost paper sheet of the stack is picked up, the paper supply shelf is synchronously lowered for a constant stroke.
