Abstract: The invention is directed toward a heat conductive sheet that has flexibility, can follow a specific shape such as ruggedness and curvature, which can therefore insure high adhesion and, at the same time, excellent heat releasing property, is free from the occurrence of wrinkle and rupture or elongation, even when the thickness is decreased, and is excellent in formability of sheet formation and in bonding work. Such heat conductive sheet includes a substrate and a heat conductive resin layer applied to at least one surface of the substrate, wherein the heat conductive resin layer is constituted as to contain a binder resin and a heat conductive filler dispersed in the binder resin.

Abstract: A thermally conductive sheet comprising a heat-conductive resin layer. The heat-conductive resin layer comprises a binder resin comprising a wax, and a heat-conductive filler dispersed in the binder resin. The thermally conductive sheet has flexibility, and is conformable to a specific shape such as uneven or curved face, thereby ensuring high adhesion, and at the same time, ensuring high heat conductivity without causing any defect ascribable to the addition of a heat-conductive filler.

A reflection sheet comprising: a film support having a thickness of 25 to 50 &mgr;m and, applied on a surface of the support, a reflective paint coat comprised of a mixture of a resin binder of a (meth)acrylate copolymer with a small particle balloon having a particle diameter of 0.05 to 10 &mgr;m and an inside empty diameter to particle diameter ratio of 0.2 to 0.9.

Abstract: A rotating member such as a sprocket to be coupled with a shaft is formed with a fitting bore which extends on the center axis and opens at at least one of its axial end portions. The rotating member is arranged in and rotatably held by a case such that its fitting bore opens toward the outside of the case. The shaft is inserted into and coupled with the fitting bore held in the case such that it can rotate integrally with the rotating member. This rotating member is formed with an air communication portion for providing communication between the inside and outside of the fitting bore and equipped with a valve for opening or closing the air communication portion. The valve may be opened in response to the rise or drop in the internal pressure of a fitting bore, by the pressure of the shaft or by a centrifugal force. With the valve being closed, lubrication oil in the case is prevented from leaking.

Abstract: A control device for a continously variable belt transmission device, including driving and driven pulley assemblies with an endless belt assembly fitted in a power transmitting manner around them in V-shaped grooves thereof to provide power transmission therebetween at a speed change ratio, the driving and driven pulley assemblies having respective first and second pressure chambers, each of which according to supply of hydraulic fluid pressure to it alters the effective pulley radius of its pulley assembly.

Abstract: A continuously variable transmission (CVT) has input and output pulleys interconnected by a V-belt. The output pulley is actuated by a line pressure. A throttle pressure is increased as the position of an intake throttle valve arranged in an intake path is increased. A transmission-ratio pressure is decreased as the position of the intake throttle valve is increased. The transmission-ratio pressure is decreased in the region of smaller openings of the intake throttle valve more gently than in the region of larger ones. The line pressure is produced in relation to the throttle pressure and the transmission-ratio pressure.
