  • Patent number: 11261988
    Abstract: A solenoid valve includes an inner stator and an outer stator that are part of a magnetic circuit. An armature is attracted toward the inner stator when a coil is energized. A spring biases the armature in a direction away from the inner stator. A rod is integrally formed with the armature and integrally reciprocates with the armature. A guide guides reciprocation of the rod. A valve operates by following the rod to open and close a fuel/liquid passage. The spring and sliding portions between the rod and the guide are arranged within a recess portion formed in the inner stator and arranged in parallel to each other while overlapping in the axial direction.

  • Patent number: 9151290
    Abstract: A cylinder body includes a cylinder hole and a discharge flow passage. The cylinder hole receives a plunger and forms a pressurizing chamber in one axial end portion thereof. The discharge flow passage is connected to the pressurizing chamber and is adapted to guide and discharge the pressurized fuel from the pressurizing chamber to an outside of the housing. A connection opening of the discharge flow passage is formed in a hole wall of the cylinder hole. A pressure is applied to a predetermined prestressing subject area in the hole wall of the cylinder hole and a passage wall of the discharge flow passage through autofrettage to generate a residual compression stress in the predetermined prestressing subject area and thereby to form a prestressed area of a final product. The prestressing subject area includes an inner peripheral edge of the connection opening.

  • Publication number: 20130247925
    Abstract: This invention is intended to provide a cigarette paper capable of reducing both a visible sidestream smoke amount and a carbon monoxide amount in a mainstream smoke. The invention provides a cigarette paper having a grammage of 40 to 55 g/m2 and containing calcium carbonate in an amount of 18 g/m2 or more. Where the primary particles of calcium carbonate having a columnar shape or a needle shape are used, the carbon monoxide amount in the mainstream smoke decreases significantly, as compared with the case where the primary particles of calcium carbonate having another shape are used.

  • Publication number: 20070295306
    Abstract: A fuel injection valve includes a valve element, an actuator, a control chamber, and a nozzle. The valve element is provided in a valve chamber. The control chamber is always communicated with the valve chamber. S3>S1>S2 is satisfied in a condition, where the followings are satisfied. S1 is a passage area of a high-pressure seat portion of the valve chamber, which area is a product of a peripheral length of the high-pressure seat portion multiplied by a lift amount of the valve element in a state, where the valve element is disengaged from the high-pressure seat portion. S2 is a passage area of the high-pressure restrictor. S3 is a passage area of the high-pressure fuel passage.

  • Patent number: 7227996
    Abstract: An image processing method for detecting an object from an input image using a template image, including inputting a specified image with respect to both a template image and an input image, calculating an edge normal direction vector of said specified image, generating an evaluation vector from said edge normal direction vector, subjecting the evaluation vector to orthogonal transformation, a step of performing a product sum calculation of corresponding spectral data with respect to each evaluation vector that has been subjected to orthogonal transformation and has been obtained for each of said template image and said input image, and a step of subjecting it to inverse orthogonal transformation and generating a similarity value map. The formula of the similarity value, the orthogonal transformation, and the inverse orthogonal transformation each have linearity.

  • Patent number: 7118046
    Abstract: In a sliding structure in which a shaft member is retained slidably in a guide hole, the lack of an oil film caused by the edge contact of the shaft member to which a pressing load in the axial direction is applied is prevented. With the fact being taken into account that end portions 25c1 and 25c2, which are always in slidable contact with a side surface 1232a of a guide hole 1232, of a side surface 25c of a shaft member 251 are the partial edge portion, a plurality of labyrinth grooves 2501 and 2502 are formed in the end portions 25c1 and 25c2, respectively, thereby it is possible for an oil film to cover the entire contact portion without increasing the groove width extremely. Because the groove width is not increased extremely, the length of the sliding portions can be ensured.

  • Patent number: 6961446
    Abstract: The present media editing device generates media including messages in an easy manner in a communication terminal such as a mobile terminal. Therein, a moving image data storage part stores moving image data recorded by a user. A region extraction part extracts any region including the user from the moving image data. A front determination part detects whether or not the user in the extracted region is facing the front. A sound detection part detects the presence or absence of a sound signal of a predetermined level or higher. A frame selection part determines starting and ending frames based on the results outputted from the front determination part and the sound detection part. An editing part performs, for example, an image conversion process by clipping out the media based on thus determined starting and ending frames. A transmission data storage part stores the resultantly edited media as transmission data.
