Abstract: A document feeder includes a document placing tray on which a document is placed; a document discharging tray on which a document discharged from a document discharging port in a discharging direction is stacked; and a light source that radiates light to the document discharging tray. The document discharging tray is disposed below the document placing tray. The document discharging tray has a protruding portion protruding upward from the surrounding area. The light source is disposed within a region having a width that is the same as a document having a maximum size in the width direction.

Abstract: A solenoid actuator 1 includes: a coil 3; a first stator 10 that includes a first yoke 14 and a cylindrical guide 30 fixed to an inner peripheral side of the first yoke 14; a second stator 20 arranged to face the first stator 10 in an axial direction so as to form a magnetic path 4 around the coil 3 together with the first stator 10; and a mover 50 configured to move in the axial direction toward the second stator 20 from an original position radially inward of the first stator by a magnetic force generated by energizing the coil 3. The cylindrical guide 30 includes: a magnetic tube 32 disposed in contact with an inner peripheral surface of the first yoke 14; and a non-magnetic layer 34 covering an inner peripheral surface of the magnetic tube 32. A minimum distance d1 between the second stator 20 and the magnetic tube 32 is greater than a minimum distance d2 between the second stator 20 and the mover 50 at the original position.

Abstract: An electromagnetic switching valve includes: a sleeve, defining a port communicating with an oil passage; a spool, reciprocally movably disposed on an axis in the sleeve, opening and closing the port; an electromagnetic actuator, including a plunger disposed on the axis and a stator; a transmission member interposed between the plunger and the spool; and an energizing spring, energizing the spool toward the plunger. The transmission member includes a first abutting part of a convex shape tiltably abutting against a receiving recess of the plunger; a second abutting part of a concave shape abutting against a convex end of the spool; and an outer peripheral wall that, in a state of being deviated from the axis and inclined, regulates the inclination by contacting an inner peripheral surface of the sleeve or the stator.

Abstract: An electromagnetic switching valve includes: a sleeve, defining a port communicating with an oil passage; a spool, reciprocally movably disposed on a predetermined axis in the sleeve, opening and closing the port; an electromagnetic actuator, including a plunger disposed on the axis and a stator exerting magnetomotive force on the plunger; and a tubular transmission member, disposed on the axis to be interposed between the plunger and the spool and transmit driving force. The stator includes an insertion hole through which the transmission member is inserted. The transmission member includes a regulated part regulated not to deviate from a range allowing an upper end of the transmission member to be inserted into the insertion hole of the stator when the transmission member is dropped and assembled into the sleeve from a vertical direction for a lower end of the transmission member to abut against the spool integrated into the sleeve.

Abstract: An electromagnetic switching valve includes: a sleeve; a spool; an electromagnetic actuator, including a plunger having a through passage and a stator exerting a magnetomotive force on the plunger; and a transmission member of a tubular shape, interposed between the plunger and the spool and transmitting a driving force. The stator includes an insertion hole through which the transmission member is inserted. The transmission member includes: a facing wall facing the through passage; a first internal passage formed closer to the plunger than the facing wall and communicating with the through passage; a first opening formed closer to the plunger than the insertion hole and opening the first internal passage in a radial direction; second internal passages formed closer to the spool than the facing wall; and second openings formed closer to the spool than the insertion hole and opening the second internal passages in the radial direction.

Abstract: An electromagnetic actuator in which magnetic force from a permanent magnet causes a stator core and a first plunger to attract each other, and electromagnetic force generated by energizing an electromagnetic coil causes a mover to resist against the magnetic force from the permanent magnet to move in an axial direction separating from a front end portion of the stator core, wherein a ring member provided on the mover is inserted in the axial direction into a hole portion provided in a bottom wall member of a yoke, and an overlap size between the ring member and the bottom wall member is increased when the mover moves relative to the stator core in a separating direction, so that a magnetism transmission quantity from the permanent magnet passing through an overlap portion between the ring member and the bottom wall member is inhibited from being reduced.

Abstract: A fuel supply system for a boat, which prevents fuel piping from becoming complicated, includes a vapor separator unit connected to a fuel tank that is mounted on a hull and holds fuel supplied to an engine section, a low-pressure pump arranged to discharge the fuel reserved in the fuel tank into the vapor separator unit, and a mounting hole for a valve, a fuel passage section, and a pipe section (relief path) that return the fuel discharged by the low-pressure pump to the suction opening section side of the low-pressure pump when a tank section is filled with a predetermined amount of fuel. The mounting hole for the valve, the fuel passage section, and the pipe section (relief path) are integral with the vapor separator unit.
