  • Patent number: 5803619
    Abstract: A piston is displaced in a cylinder to pre-load an antifriction bearing. This displacement of the piston is effected according to the amount of working oil confined in a working oil chamber. This oil pressure generating device is equipped with a working oil reservoir to pressurize the working oil in the reservoir for reserving the working oil to be fed to the chamber. An orifice is disposed in a working oil passage for providing the communication between the reservoir and the chamber. The clearance, which is established in the portion of antifriction bearing by the extension or contraction of a shaft due to a temperature change, is absorbed by such displacement of the piston, as is effected by the flow of the working oil between the reservoir and the chamber via the orifice. This orifice acts as a high resistance to and a high rigidity against the abrupt fluctuation in the direction opposite to the pre-loading direction.

  • Patent number: 5446494
    Abstract: A focus detecting system for effecting automatic focusing by detecting the in-focus position of a focusing lens and driving the focusing lens to this position. This system has a signal processing means supplied with a video signal from image pick-up means to output a signal related to the in-focus state, a detection means for detecting the position of a focusing lens for forming an image in the image pick-up means, when the signal output from the signal processing means is processed, and a calculating means for calculating the presupposed in-focus position of the focusing lens from at least two groups of items of data on the signal outputted from the signal processing means and on the position of the focusing lens supplied from the detection means. Each time the deviation of the present position of the focusing lens from the presupposed in-focus position is calculated, the focusing lens is driven to move to an extent smaller than the deviation, thus being focused.
