Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide: a novel curable compound which can be expected to be used as a raw material for photocurable resins and thermosetting resins; a method for synthesizing said compound; a resin composition containing said compound; and a cured product thereof. This compound is an epoxy-oxetane compound represented by a formula, and this compound has a structure in which two epoxycyclohexyl groups (groups in which an oxirane ring and a cyclohexane ring are condensed) are bonded to an oxetane ring via a connector having one ether bond. In formula (I?), R1 to R3 may be the same as, or different from, each other, and each denote a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. n is 1 or 2.

Abstract: An engine is a rear exhaust engine provided with an exhaust system component on a rear side in a vehicle front-rear direction. This engine includes a first flow rectifying member, provided above the engine, that subjects traveling wind to flow rectification so that the traveling wind flows rearward and a second flow rectifying member, disposed adjacently to a rear side of the first flow rectifying member, that subjects the traveling wind, subjected to flow rectification by the first flow rectifying member, to flow rectification so that the traveling wind is directed to the exhaust system component, in which fuel system components are disposed below the first flow rectifying member.

Abstract: A cylinder head cover structure of an engine includes a positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve releasing blow-by gas from an oil separating chamber to an intake system of the engine. The oil separating chamber is included in an oil separator provided to an interior of a cylinder head cover. In the oil separating chamber, oil mist is separated and removed from the blow-by gas. The PCV valve is located between a portion of a defining wall and an exterior wall of the cylinder head cover, and supported by the defining wall and the exterior wall, the defining wall defining the oil separating chamber and the cam housing, and the exterior wall being spaced apart from the portion of the defining wall.

Abstract: A cylinder head cover structure for an engine includes a cylinder head cover. The cylinder head cover includes a metal cover member forming one end of the cylinder head cover in an engine length direction and a portion adjacent to the one end, and a resin cover member forming a portion of the cylinder head cover other than the metal cover member. The metal cover member is provided with a cam angle sensor attachment to which a cam angle sensor is attached, the cam angle sensor detecting a rotational position of a camshaft of the engine.

Abstract: Provided is a small capacity container for viscous substance, which is capable of quickly discharging a viscous content at any time even when being held upside down or almost upside down. In the small capacity container of not more than 300 ml to contain a viscous substance, a region for quickly discharging the content and a region for slowly discharging the content during the container is held upside down are formed on the inner surface of the barrel portion of the container.

Abstract: An oil supply path passes through members separate from a cylinder head (4) to supply a lubricant to bearings (73, 74) of camshaft journals. The oil supply path includes an oil supply passage (66) for the camshaft above the camshaft (19, 20), a connection passage (64) for the camshaft between the oil supply passage for the camshaft and an internal passage (61, 62) in the cylinder head (4), and branch oil passages (68) for the camshaft journals. Each branch oil passage branches off from the oil supply passage for the camshaft, and is connected to one of the bearings (73, 74) from above. Each of the branch passages includes a throttle (168) with a smaller cross-sectional flow area than the oil supply passage for the camshaft.

Abstract: A cam element portions is configured such that respective maximum lift portions (lift ending points) of both-side end-face cams thereof are provided at respective phases which are different from each other in a rotational direction and that a maximum value of a length, in an axial direction, between respective cam faces of the both-side end-face cams which are provided at the same phase is set to be a distance, in the axial direction, between a first operational member and a second operational member or smaller. Accordingly, in a valve gear of an engine in which cams operative to control opening/closing of a valve are switchable, it can be properly prevented that a camshaft locks and stop rotating because of an operational malfunction of an operational member or the like.
