  • Patent number: 12292118
    Abstract: An outer circumferential surface of a piston ring has a cut surface forming a notched portion between an outer circumferential end surface and a lower surface, the cut surface including a first surface between the outer circumferential end surface and a bottom portion, and a second surface between the bottom portion and the lower surface. The second surface is inclined away from a central axis of the piston ring as it extends toward a crank chamber side, an angle of inclination of the second surface with respect to the bottom portion being greater than or equal to 50° and less than or equal to 85°. When an axial width of the piston ring is h1 and a distance in an axial direction between a connecting portion between the cut surface and the outer circumferential end surface and a connecting portion between the cut surface and the lower surface is H, H/h1 is greater than or equal to 0.2 and less than or equal to 0.4.

  • Patent number: 8891688
    Abstract: A no signal period detecting unit (10) detects a no signal period in which no receiver signal is received. A capture unit (7) captures a synchronous timing of the receiver signal on the basis of a correlation value which is worked out by a delayed correlation computing unit (6). Further, the capture unit (7) cancels the capture of the synchronous timing in the case where this no signal period is detected by the no signal period detecting unit (10).
