  • Patent number: 10661728
    Abstract: A license plate support mechanism is equipped with an attachment portion to which a license plate can be attached, a fixation portion fixating the attachment portion to a vehicle body, and a switching mechanism. The switching mechanism couples the attachment portion to the fixation portion such that the attachment portion is capable of displacing relative to the fixation portion. The switching mechanism also enables the attachment portion to switch between a storage position, in which the attachment portion is stored on a left/right direction inward side of a left/right pair of rear wheel fenders, and a display position, in which the attachment portion is positioned on the left/right direction outward side of the left/right pair of rear wheel fenders.

  • Patent number: 7277300
    Abstract: A vent grid has parallel first electrically-conductive members and parallel second electrically-conductive members intersecting with the first electrically-conductive members. The intersection between the first and second electrically-conductive members is forced to have a larger cross-sectional area. The characteristic impedance thus increases. The electric current flowing through the first and second electrically-conductive members turns over at the boundary between the intersection and the first and second electrically-conductive members. The flow of the electric current is in this manner interrupted. Accordingly, the vent grid fails to induce electromagnetic wave. Moreover, the electrically-conductive piece is merely located at a corner of the opening. Decrease in the percentage of the opening is thus suppressed to the utmost per a unit area. A sufficient airflow can be established through the vent grid. Decrease in the cooling efficiency and performance can be suppressed.

  • Patent number: 5186297
    Abstract: A hydraulic operating apparatus includes a release hub for supporting a release bearing, a piston formed separately from the release hub, and an abutting plate disposed between the piston and release hub as a power transmission relay member for absorbing shocks. The abutting plate may itself be formed of an elastic material or may include an elastic element to suppress shocks transmitted between the piston and release hub. The release hub and piston are formed annular, and the release hub is supported slidable on an outer surface of an outer wall section of a cylinder defining an annular piston chamber. The release hub includes a supporting surface having a smaller diameter than the outer wall section for supporting the release bearing.
