Patent number: 11057554Abstract: Disposing a functional device such as a camera on a display surface widens a frame. A display device (2) includes a display panel (DP) including a first substrate (5). The display panel has a transparent section (TS) from which display light does not go out and which has a partial region (5s) of the first substrate. In plan view, the transparent section which is larger than a pixel (PX) is disposed on an inner side of an edge of a display area (3) or is disposed to cut out the display area. The display panel has a back surface on which a functional device (FD) configured to perform at least one of light reception or light emission is disposed to overlap the transparent section.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2018Date of Patent: July 6, 2021Assignee: SHARP KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Jin Nakamura, Nobuhisa Nakajima, Isao Takahashi, Hiroyuki Watatani

Patent number: 8029246Abstract: A pulley is fixed to a housing of a water pump, the pulley being connected to an output shaft of an internal combustion engine so that the pulley is driven through the output shaft. In the housing, a slider moves to and fro due to a change in pressure in a pressure chamber, which causes the magnetic flux passing through a magnet and an inductor ring of a rotary cylinder to vary, so that the driving force of the internal combustion engine is variably transmitted to the rotary cylinder. The pressure chamber is connected to an intake air passage and an atmospheric air introducing portion through a pressure path, and the state of communication is changed by a VSV. The pressure passage is provided with an orifice for preventing rapid change in pressure in the pressure chamber when the VSV is switched.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2008Date of Patent: October 4, 2011Assignees: Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki Kaisha, Aisin Seiki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Shuichi Hanai, Kyosuke Togawa, Kazunari Adachi, Nobuhisa Nakajima, Takashi Sakumoto
