Abstract: A portable remote controller for a tire status detector, includes a portable casing, a transmission circuit disposed in the casing, a low-pass filter disposed at an output side of the transmission circuit for permitting a signal with a frequency of not more than the first frequency to pass through the low-pass filter, a receiving circuit disposed in the casing, a high-pass filter disposed at an input side of the receiving circuit for permitting a signal with a frequency of not less than the second frequency to pass through the high-pass filter, a ferrite bar antenna housed in the casing and having a ferrite bar wound with an antenna coil, the antenna coil having two terminals, one of which being connected to the ground and the other being connected in common to the low-pass and high-pass filers and a duplexer composed of the low-pass and high-pass filters. The ferrite bar antenna is used both for transmission of the long wave signals and for receipt of the ultra high frequency signals.

Abstract: An obliquely inclined position determining mechanism has an intermediate base rotatable relative to both a support base and a pivotal base of a pivotal support of a cutting device. A fixing device is operable to releasably fix the intermediate base in position relative to the support base or the pivotal base. An adjustable screw is operable to accurately determine the rotational position of the intermediate base relative to the pivotal base or the support base at least when the saw unit has been pivoted to a target obliquely inclined position.

Abstract: A cutting machine includes a main body in which a rotary blade is included, a base over which a workpiece is to be placed, and a guide fence mountable to the base. The main body is provided above the base in such a manner that the main body is movable upward and downward, and a longitudinal direction of the guide fence is perpendicular to the rotary blade as viewed from top when the guide fence is mounted to the base. The guide fence provides a guide surface that extends in the longitudinal direction of the guide fence and is configured to be rendered perpendicular to a top face of the base when the guide fence is mounted to the base. The guide fence includes a stopper that is configured to project from the guide surface, to be movable upward and downward, and to be fixed at any level.

Abstract: A dust-collecting device for collecting cutting chips produced by a cutting device has a separator for separating the cutting chips from the carrier air by utilizing the force of gravity upon the cutting chips. A dust container collects the cutting chips separated by the separator. The separator includes a separator body having a cutting chip discharge pipe and an air discharge pipe. After separation the carrier air is discharged upward from the separator body via the air discharge pipe. The separated cutting chips are discharge downward from the separator body via the cutting chip discharge pipe. The dust container is connected to the cutting chip discharge pipe.

Abstract: The PLL circuit provides both the advantages of analog phase control, in which a good C/N ratio can be realized, and the advantages of digital phase control, in which broad-band lock can be performed. A multi-channel FM receiving method and apparatus are able to utilize the PLL circuit to reduce the influence of the leakage occurring among input signals and suppress image disturbance.
