  • Patent number: 9624948
    Abstract: An oil control valve has a cup shaft and a plunger. The cup shaft and the plunger have a projection and a recess to provide a male-female joint. The male-female joint provides contact points which can reduce lateral offset and inclination. The projection and the recess provides two or more force transmitting points from the plunger to the cup shaft, when the projection and the recess are inclined with each other. The force transmitting points are located about the central axis of the spool in a distributed manner.

  • Patent number: 4549352
    Abstract: A washable electric shaver comprising a water-tight housing having a drive motor therein and a switch mounted thereon, and a shaving head. The shaving head has a stationary shear plate cooperable with a movable shear element which, when driven by the drive motor, oscillates in engagement with the stationary shear plate to cut hairs of a beard. The shaving head has a pair of end openings located on respective sides of the movable shear element and adapted to be selectively opened and closed by respective lateral lids which are normally biased so as to close the end openings. The shaver can be washed by allowing a flush of water to flow from one of the end openings to the other through the interior of the head when the lateral lids are in opened positions.
