  • Patent number: 7726864
    Abstract: A reflector has a curved part covering the light source and a pair of end parts extending at the two sides of the curved part. The inside surface of each end part has a plurality of substantially parallel projections or depressions. The light-guiding plate has an incident surface and an emission surface substantially perpendicular to the incident surface, the incident surface having a plurality of projections or depressions extending substantially parallel to the emission surface. Also, the reflection surface of the light-guiding plate has projections.

  • Patent number: 6012538
    Abstract: In a driving unit for an electric motor driven bicycle, a motor (31) has an output shaft coaxial with a crank shaft (39) of a pedal. A planet roller reducer (40) has a sun roller shaft coincident with the output shaft. Through the planet roller reducer (40) and a two-stage reducing gear mechanism (50) for further reducing the output of the planet roller reducer (40), a torque of the motor (31) is transmitted to a driving chain sprocket (4). Provided that the torque of the motor (31) exceeds a predetermined pedaling torque level, the torque is transmitted to the driving chain sprocket (4).

  • Patent number: 4884956
    Abstract: A rotary compressor includes a top clearance volume formed between a cylinder chamber and at least one delivery valve. Another top clearance volume, in communication with the cylinder chamber, produces a reverse flow of compressed fluid which generates pulsations adapted to offset a high frequency component of pulsations generated in the cylinder chamber by compressed fluid reversely flowing from the first top clearance volume to the cylinder chamber. Thereby the high frequency component of pulsations generated in the cylinder chamber is eliminated, and a low-noise rotary compressor is provided.
