Patent number: 8479862Abstract: A branch joint is provided at the rear portion of an exhaust pipe. Second exhaust pipes with a small diameter arranged one above the other are branched at a position forward of an intersecting position P with a pivot plate. The second exhaust pipes are made to intersect the inside of the pivot plate. The gap between the pivot plate and the engine can be narrowed while ensuring a smooth exhaust. The exhaust path lengths of the second exhaust pipes are made to be offset from each other so as not to be the integral multiple of the wavelength of the exhaust sound in the operating area. This allows exhaust gases to interfere with each other in the muffler. Thus, the exhaust sound can be reduced and the muffler can be downsized. This allows for the slimming of the vehicle body without lowering the output of the engine.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 2011Date of Patent: July 9, 2013Assignee: Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yotaro Mori, Masato Morita, Hikaru Tsukamoto

Patent number: 4882690Abstract: A logic design automation system examines correspondence relationship among sublogics in intermediate gate-level logic (containing neither physical design information nor manually optimized logic design information) produced from updated functional-level logic and current gate-level logic (containing the above information) to identify corresponding sublogics and non-corresponding sublogics of the gate-level logics with reference to primary input/output signals and input/output gates. For the corresponding sublogics, the corresponding sublogics of the current gate-level logic are selected, and for the non-corresponding sublogics, the non-corresponding sublogics of the intermediate gate-level logic are selected. The selected sublogics are combined to synthesize updated gate-level logic which preserved therein the physical design information and the manually optimized logic design information for portions of the current gate-level logic which need not be modified.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 1986Date of Patent: November 21, 1989Assignees: Hitachi, Ltd., Hitachi Microcomputer Engineering, Ltd., Hitachi Software Engineering Co., Ltd.Inventors: Takao Shinsha, Masato Morita, Yoshinori Sakataya, Yoji Tsuchiya, Mitsuhiro Hikosaka, Junji Koshishita, Keiho Akiyama, Takashige Kubo
