  • Patent number: 11934110
    Abstract: A developing roll has a metal core, an elastic layer, and a surface layer. A value X is 65.6 N/mm3 or more and a value Y is 229 ?m or more. The value X is P1/(D1×A)?P2/(D2×A). P1 is the load to displace the roll 100 ?m when a metal probe is pressed against the roll. D1 is the displacement of the roll caused by the probe under the load P1. A is the area of the probe. P2 is the load to displace a material roll by 100 ?m when the probe presses against the material roll with the core and the elastic layer and without the surface layer. D2 is the displacement of the material roll caused by the probe under the load P2. The value Y is the displacement of the roll when the probe pierces the surface layer.

  • Patent number: 10968854
    Abstract: A port injection valve injects fuel into an intake passage. A base injection amount is an injection amount proportional to an amount of fresh air introduced into a cylinder of an internal combustion engine. A division process involves dividing the base injection amount into a synchronous injection amount and an asynchronous injection amount. In an intake-synchronous injection, the fuel is injected in synchronization with a period in which an intake valve is open. In an intake-asynchronous injection, the fuel is injected at a time advanced with respect to the intake-synchronous injection. In a selective correction process, the asynchronous injection amount is corrected according to a required correction amount for the base injection amount, and the synchronous injection amount is not corrected.

  • Patent number: 10678051
    Abstract: In a head-up display device, in accordance with lifting and lowering operations of a combiner, each protrusion of a combiner support moves along a guide portion, causing a cover-operation member to turn about a rotary axis in a direction in which a cover is opened or closed. The guide portion includes, from top in order: a first guide portion which engages with the protrusion in a first state (use state); a second guide portion which engages with the protrusion when the cover-operation member turns; and a third guide portion which engages with the protrusion in a second state (non-use state). The angle formed by the direction in which the first guide portion extends and the direction in which the third guide portion extends is less than the angle formed by the direction in which the first guide portion extends and the direction in which the second guide portion extends.
