  • Patent number: 6981722
    Abstract: A pipe coupling device has a main body defining a main body passage hole to permit communication between inside the main body passage hole and outside the main body passage hole. A fixing screw member is joined to the main body to surround a periphery of the main body passage hole, the fixing screw member having an external thread formed in its outer peripheral surface. A sleeve is insertable in the fixing screw member while a tilt preventing gap is defined between the sleeve and an inner peripheral surface of the fixing screw member. A first convergently tapered portion formed at a tip end of the pipe is pressed against a first pressure bearing surface formed at one end of the sleeve to form a first seal. A second convergently tapered portion formed at the other end of the sleeve forms a second seal.

  • Patent number: 6848424
    Abstract: A common rail of an accumulation type fuel injection system has a common rail main body, distributing portions and accessory portions. The common rail main body provides an accumulation chamber for accumulating high-pressure fuel discharged from a high-pressure supply pump. The distributing portion can be connected with a pressure introduction pipe for introducing the accumulated high-pressure fuel to an injector mounted to a cylinder. The accessory portion is disposed on a fuel outlet side of the distributing portion and is connected with the distributing portion and the high-pressure pipe in thread connection. The accessory portion has a sealing member between the accessory portion and a connection object on the distributing portion side. The sealing member has a sealing surface formed substantially in the shape of a spherical surface on the connection object side.

  • Patent number: 6296035
    Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed for removing a coating from synthetic resin products, such as an automobile bumper, to obtain improved coating removal rate and improved productivity. A resin material having a coating applied thereto is rolled between a resin-side roll and a coating-side roll which rotate at different peripheral speeds. A shear stress is applied to the interface between the resin material and the coating, thereby removing the coating from the resin material. Pressing means press the coating-side roll towards the resin-side roll with a predetermined force. The resin-side roll and the coating-side roll apply a normally fixed shear stress between the resin material and the coating, ensuring stable coating removal and improved productivity.

  • Patent number: 5876557
    Abstract: A safety device is provided for a film removing and peeling apparatus, which rolls a coated resin member between a pair of rolls facing each other and rotating at different peripheral rotating speeds and which applies a shearing stress between the resin material and a film to peel the film from the resin material. The safety device includes: a flat plate to which a resin material is fed, the flat plate being provided so as to extend in a substantially horizontal direction at a height substantially corresponding to a gap between the rolls, and the flat plate having a front edge located so as to be close to the rolls; a pushing plate for pushing material on the flat plate to squeeze the resin material into the gap between the rolls; and an air cylinder for moving the pushing plate in a forward direction to cause the pushing plate to push material on the flat plate.
