Abstract: An electromagnetic clutch includes a coil generating a first magnetic flux or a second magnetic flux depending on the direction of current flowing therein, a stationary core accommodating therein the coil, a stationary magnet providing a magnetic flux that opposes the first magnetic flux, a rotor rotatable concentrically with a rotatable shaft, a moving core fixed to the rotor, a moving magnet providing a magnetic flux that opposes the second magnetic flux, a sun gear fixed to the rotatable shaft, an internal gear fixed to the rotor, a planetary gear meshed with the sun gear and the internal gear, an arm supporting the planetary gear, a pulley rotatable concentrically with the rotatable shaft, a first armature being capable of coupling to the stationary core, and a second armature being capable of coupling to the moving core.

Abstract: A variable displacement compressor includes a housing, a rotary shaft, a bearing, a seal member, a shaft seal chamber, a discharge refrigerant passage and a partition. The partition is provided in the shaft seal chamber for partitioning the shaft seal chamber into a first seal chamber to which the discharge refrigerant passage is opened and a second seal chamber part of the periphery of which is formed by the bearing and the seal member. The partition is provided with a first guide passage through which refrigerant containing lubricating oil flowed from the discharge refrigerant passage into tho first seal chamber is substantially all supplied to the seal member of the second seal chamber.

Abstract: [Problem to be Solved] An object is to provide an art for preventing an element formative layer (active layer) from peeling off from a buried insulating film (intermediate insulating layer) with regard to production method of a semiconductor substrate having trench construction.

Abstract: In a rotor for a rotary electric machine, a predetermined number of main pole magnets and a predetermined number of yoke magnets are fixed in contact with a hub. Each main pole magnet is magnetized so that its radial inside portion and its radial outside portion have the opposite polarity from each other, of north pole and south pole. Also, each main pole magnet has its radial inside and radial outside polarities reversed from its closest main pole magnets. The yoke magnets are disposed to allow magnetic flux to flow through circumferential surfaces of the main pole magnets. The hub is provided as a heat radiating member and made of metal having high heat conductivity. The hub includes an inner cylindrical portion and an outer cylindrical portion, and forms an air passage spaces.
