  • Patent number: 8863786
    Abstract: A propellant filling device that reliably fills a prescribed amount of propellant into an aerosol container without variations in amount while also preventing backflow to a supply unit side even when the pressure in the aerosol container is higher than a supply unit side pressure. The propellant filling device includes a valve opening member that continuously presses a valve to open a valve system. On the upper end side of the valve opening member, a flow conduit is provided. A valve member in the flow conduit allows a flow channel of the flow conduit to be closed. The valve system is kept in an open state. When the pressure in the aerosol container is higher than the supply unit side pressure, the propellant flows into the aerosol container with backflow of aerosol content being prevented.

  • Patent number: 4789888
    Abstract: In a solid-state image sensor of the type consisting of a semiconductor circuit substrate capable of charge transfer or having the switching function and a photoconductive layer or a photosensor, a pattern of light-shielding checks is formed between the surface of the semiconductor circuit substrate and a transparent electrode on the photoconductive layer or a photosensor so as to optically shield the gaps or spaces between electrodes which are provided for respective picture elements and which are connected to their associated diode regions and the photoconductive layer or photosensor, whereby blooming can be suppressed without causing a decrease in sensitivity.

  • Patent number: 4696379
    Abstract: A hydraulic buffer includes a cylinder, a piston disposed movably in the cylinder to partition the interior of the cylinder into two liquid chambers, and a piston rod connected to the piston and having a first path communicating with one of the liquid chambers and extending axially beyond the piston and a second path communicating with the other of the liquid chambers. A solenoid valve received in the piston rod has a tubular spool disposed movably axially of the piston rod and has a third path capable of communicating with the second path in the piston rod. Further, inside the spool is disposed a pipe having a fourth path capable of communicating with the third path in the spool and communicating with the first path in the piston rod.

  • Patent number: 4421187
    Abstract: A vehicle has two axially opposed driven wheels which are driven by two drive shafts of equal length, each flexibly drivingly coupled at its outer end to one of the wheels. A differential, which has a preferred power output line, is located closer to a first one of the wheels and further from the other wheel. A short power output shaft extends from the differential towards the first wheel and is flexibly drivingly coupled at its outer end to the inner end of the drive shaft which drives that first wheel. A long power output shaft extends from the differential towards the other wheel and is flexibly coupled at its outer end to the inner end of the other one of the drive shafts, whose outer end is drivingly coupled to that other wheel. The inner race of a bearing supports an outer part of the long power output shaft, remote from the differential, and an outer race rotatably supports the inner race.

  • Patent number: 4345021
    Abstract: A highly sensitive and high-density picture element solid-state image pickup element and a process for fabricating the same which is featured in (a) that in the step for patterning a photoconductive layer, a protective pattern resisting an etchant is formed by using an ultraviolet-ray-setting resin which is also used in the step for bonding a color filter and then the undesired areas of the photoconductive layer, which has been formed over the whole surface of a wafer, are removed and (b) that the color filter having a stripe or mosaic pattern is bonded to the protective pattern with the same ultraviolet-ray-setting resin. Alternatively, after the color filter has been bonded, the undesired areas of the photoconductive layer are removed with the color filter used as an etching mask.
