  • Patent number: 11913372
    Abstract: This turbocharger includes: an impeller which includes a hub provided to be rotatable around a center axis and a plurality of turbine blades arranged on the outside of the hub in a radial direction at intervals in a circumferential direction around the center axis; and a turbine housing which is disposed on the outside of the impeller in the radial direction and forms a scroll flow path guiding an exhaust gas toward the impeller on the inside of the radial direction while turning the exhaust gas in the circumferential direction, wherein a flow path width in the circumferential direction of at least one of a plurality of inter-blade flow path portions formed between the plurality of turbine blades is different from a flow path width of the another of the plurality of inter-blade flow path portions.

  • Patent number: 8740608
    Abstract: There is provided a workpiece removal and finishing device that can easily, accurately, continuously and quickly perform a series of works for processing a workpiece of resin removed from a molding machine. The workpiece removal and finishing device for processing the workpiece of resin removed from the molding machine 41 has a workpiece removal robot 100 for directly or indirectly removing the workpiece from molds 2, 3, and a processing robot 200 for processing the workpiece. A processing tool which can profile the workpiece is secured to the arm tip of the processing robot 200 through a floating mechanism to be adaptable to thermal contraction of the workpiece, and the workpiece can processed by the profiling-capable processing tool provided to the arm tip 200A of the processing robot 200 while the workpiece removed by the workpiece removal robot 100 is positioned and held by the workpiece removal robot 100.

  • Patent number: 6519408
    Abstract: In a display device used together with a playback apparatus such as an optical disk, a control is provided responding to a playback signal from an playback apparatus in order to prevent burn-out of CRT phosphor or deterioration of phosphor. A first controller controls the playback apparatus, and a second controller controls the display device, and those two controllers communicate with each other, thereby recognizing an operation status and a display status. Thus those two controllers control circuits and apparatus including a video control circuit which controls a contrast, whereby optimizing a display on a screen, and control status of an audio output, a power supply controller, and a playback apparatus controller.

  • Patent number: 6119813
    Abstract: A lubricant feeder which is highly safe and usable, e.g., in an oil seal for a food-processing machine is disclosed. Lubricant feeders 11 each comprising a solid synthetic resin containing a lubricant feed the lubricant to side seals 10 and a rail 1, which all require lubrication. Each lubricant feeder 11 is interposed between the side seal 10 and a reinforcing plate 20 and is fixed to an end cap 2B. The lubricant is a white mineral oil or a grease including a white mineral oil as a base oil and aluminum soap as a thickener, and the synthetic resin comprises a polyolefin resin.

  • Patent number: 5869991
    Abstract: A circuit prevents continuation of a runaway condition in a micro-controller. When the output terminal in a C-MOS push-pull structure of the micro-controller becomes uncontrollable as a result of runaway of the micro-controller, the usually low potential of the output terminal elevates, and is used as detection signal. The detection signal is applied to the base of a detection transistor to conduct the detection transistor, resulting in the voltage of the reset terminal of the micro-controller, which is connected to the collector of the detection transistor, to become a "LOW" level to stop the runaway condition. The port terminal voltage is set to a "LOW" level based on the change of the reset terminal voltage which conducts the diode connected between the port terminal and the base of the detection transistor, thereby lowering the base potential of the transistor and hence the control transistor is cut off.
