Publication number: 20110120409Abstract: There is provided a four-stroke internal combustion engine lubrication device that is capable of appropriately lubricating various parts regardless of engine orientation, of improving the capability for collecting excess oil within a valve chamber or the like and the capability for supplying oil to the various parts, and of reliably preventing oil leakage from a breather port provided in the valve chamber. It comprises: a reed valve (40) that allows oil flow from an oil chamber (17) into a crankcase (15) but prevents oil flow from the crankcase (15) to the oil chamber (17); an oil supply passage (35) for supplying oil from the crankcase (15) to a valve chamber (18); and a plurality of independent oil collection passages (51, 52) with differing inlet/outlet positions and for collecting in the oil chamber (17) the excess oil in the valve chamber (18). The dimensions of the various parts are so designed as to constantly maintain the oil chamber (17) under negative pressure during operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 18, 2010Publication date: May 26, 2011Inventors: Shinichi SAITOU, Tomohiro OHTSUBO

Patent number: 4428009Abstract: The disclosed recorder includes a motor, a magnetic head, an oscillation circuit connected to the head, an equalizing circuit connected to the oscillation circuit. The equalizing circuit includes a capacitor which, when grounded, changes the equalization of the equalizing circuit. A signal amplifier is connected to the equalizing circuit. A speed changing circuit is connected to the motor for changing the speed of the motor and, hence, the tape speed, and a switch forms an operating path when closed for simultaneously connecting the speed changing circuit to ground through the path so as to energize the speed changing circuit and connects the capacitor to ground through the same path so as simultaneously to change equalization of the equalizing circuit.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 1982Date of Patent: January 24, 1984Assignee: Olympus Optical Company LimitedInventors: Shinichi Saitou, Masatoshi Ida
