Abstract: A screw compressor includes a screw rotor, a casing, and a fluid supply portion to supply fluid in a membrane form into a compression chamber in the casing. The screw rotor has a male and female rotors. A male bore covering the male rotor and a female bore covering the female rotor are formed on the inner surface of the casing. An intersection line, on a higher pressure side, of the male and female bores is defined as a compression cusp. In a bore development view, a trajectory made by the first intersection of an extension line of a female lobe ridge and a male lobe ridge being moved, along with the rotation of the male and female rotors, is defined as a trajectory line. An opening of the fluid supply section to the compression chamber is positioned between the compression cusp and the trajectory line.

The delivery side shaft sealing unit includes an annular groove provided in the shaft section, a seal ring disposed movably in an axial direction of the shaft section within the annular groove, the seal ring being capable of sliding contact with the shaft hole and a side wall surface of the annular groove, and a shaft sealing fluid supply passage communicating with the shaft hole and supplying a fluid to one side, in an axial direction, of the seal ring.

Abstract: There is provided a liquid feeding type screw compressor that can reduce size and weight and improve vibration insulation and sound insulation. A liquid feeding type screw compressor includes as components: a compressor main body; a motor driving the compressor main body; and a gas-liquid separator separating a liquid from a compressed air discharged from the compressor main body. The motor is arranged above the compressor main body. The gas-liquid separator is arranged below the compressor main body. A compressor main body casing constituting an inner cylindrical space forming a compression operation chamber together with the screw rotor and constituting the contour of the compressor main body and a casing constituting the contour of another component consist of an integrally molded single member.

Abstract: Provided is a fluid machine configured such that liquid supplied to a working chamber from the outside of the fluid machine is dispersed extensively in the working chamber. This fluid machine is constituted of a screw rotor and a casing for accommodating the screw rotor and is provided with a liquid supply section for supplying liquid into a working chamber from the outside. The liquid supply section is configured so that liquid is dispersed in the longitudinal direction of the tooth groove of the screw rotor rather than in the width direction thereof.

Abstract: A brake light control device that generates a braking force, and is used with a brake device which can control the braking force according to a signal from a brake control unit regardless of the operation of a brake operator includes: a brake light switch that is inserted and arranged into an electrical connection path between a power supply and a brake light, and is opened and closed together with the operation of the brake operator; and a switching switch that is opened and closed in response to braking force control. The brake light control device further includes: a blinking switch that is connected in parallel to the switching switch; and a control unit that, when the brake light is required to be blinked, is configured to keep the switching switch in an OFF state, and blinks the brake light by repeatedly switching on and off the blinking switch.

Abstract: A vehicle yaw moment control device is basically provided with a steering state detection sensor and a controller. The steering state detection sensor is configured to detect a steered angle speed and a steered angle acceleration of a vehicle. The controller includes a brake force control part that is programmed to calculate a yaw moment controlled variable that is applied to the vehicle based on a signal detected by the steering state detection sensor and applying a brake force difference to left and right vehicle wheels in accordance with the yaw moment controlled variable. The brake force control part is further programmed to output a command to apply a predetermined brake force to a vehicle wheel to which brake force had not been applied upon determining a decrease in the steered angle speed.
