  • Patent number: 5720206
    Abstract: An actuator device designed to prevent intrusion of water into a control section housing chamber due to an breathing operation and hence malfunction and fracture of a control section. In the actuator device, a ventilating opening is provided in a partition between a mechanism section housing chamber and a control section housing chamber for communicating the mechanism section housing chamber and the control section housing chamber, a cylindrical protrusion is provided in the partition on the side of the mechanism section housing chamber so as to surround the ventilating opening; and a drain hole for communicating said mechanism section housing chamber with outside air is provided at a position lower than that of the ventilating opening of said mechanism section housing chamber.

  • Patent number: 5083542
    Abstract: An improved link mechanism for a vehicular cruise control apparatus equally usable with right-hand steering and left-hand steering automobiles. A first, circular lever 1' is selectively connected with one end of a first cable 6 which is connected to an accelerator pedal at its other end. The pedal can be disposed on the right side of the first lever for a right-hand steering vehicle, or on the left side thereof for a left-hand steering vehicle. A second, semicircular lever 2 is connected with one end of a second cable 7 which is secured at its other end to a throttle valve. A third, semicircular lever 3 is connected with one end of a third cable 8 which is secured at its other end to a cruise control actuator.
