Abstract: The disclosure provides a lubricating structure for a vehicle power transmission device that may effectively lubricate a transfer device and a differential device without increasing the amount of oil. The lubricating structure includes: a first guide wall positioned above a bearing; a second guide wall provided below an oil reservoir and extending toward a central axis of a final driven gear; and an oil catch member that receives oil guided by the second guide wall and supplies the oil to a differential device and the bearing. The oil catch member includes a first inclined part inclined so that a direction of the first guide wall is lowered, a notch formed at a position facing an opening formed in a differential case, and a groove for oil guiding that extends toward the bearing.

Abstract: There is provided an exhaust purification apparatus for an internal combustion engine in which a catalyst capable of adsorbing and oxidizing hydrocarbon is provided in an exhaust pipe, the exhaust purification apparatus including temperature detection means for detecting a temperature of the catalyst, estimation means for accumulating a time during which the temperature of the catalyst detected by the temperature detection means is equal to or less than a predetermined temperature, and estimating an amount of hydrocarbon adsorbed on the catalyst from the accumulated time, and control means for controlling fuel ejection of the internal combustion engine in a first ejection mode in which the temperature of the catalyst is increased to a temperature where hydrocarbons adsorbed on the catalyst are oxidized, in a case in which the amount of hydrocarbons estimated by the estimation means exceeds a predetermined upper limit.

Abstract: A valve element of a fuel injection valve comprises a cylindrical structural base which has an upper end contactable with a lower end of a core tube installed in a cylindrical case and a spherical valve head which is contactable with a valve seat arranged at a lower end of the cylindrical case. The structural base is a sintered magnetic metal member produced through a metal powder injection molding method and has a relative density ranging from approximately 95% to approximately 98%, and the structure base has, at the end thereof that is contactable with the downstream end of the core tube, a notched surface for suppressing an undesirable sticking of the end of the structural base to the downstream end of the core tube.

Abstract: A fuel injection valve of an internal combustion engine for a vehicle is comprised of a nozzle plate which has a plurality of nozzle holes. Fuel injection jets are injected from the nozzle holes and collided with each other. The thickness of the nozzle plate is equal to or greater than the diameter of the nozzle holes.

Abstract: A control device for an internal combustion engine comprising an EGR passage (22) for connecting an intake passage (17) and an exhaust passage (18) with each other, an EGR valve (24) provided in the EGR passage (22), and an intake throttle valve (19) provided in the intake passage (17) at an upstream side of the connection part with the EGR passage (22).
