Abstract: A structure of an exhaust manifold branch collecting portion includes a double collecting pipe 21 for collecting a plurality of exhaust openings 11A, 17A. The double collecting pipe 21 is comprised of an inner pipe 21-1 and an outer pipe 21-2, which are connected integrally to each other. In a space formed between the inner pipe 21-1, the outer pipe 21-2, and a ring-shaped stainless steel cushion member 22-2, a tubular cushion member 22-1, which is thermally expanded and foamed, is arranged as a restricted cushion structure.

Abstract: A structure of an exhaust manifold branch collecting portion where a plurality of pipe members are joined integrally at their respective downstream ends, wherein a thickened portion is provided at the downstream end of at least one pipe member on a center side of the exhaust manifold branch collecting portion.

Abstract: A temperature-compensating circuit for a capacitive or prezoelectric resistive accelerometer comprising a flexure with torquer coils subjected to physical changes in response to the linear accelerations, capacitive or piezoelectric resistive elements for detecting strain of the flexure, elements for amplifying the detected output and a negative feedback amplifier for supplying the output to the torquer coils. The output of the piezoelectric resistive element and the resistance of the torquer coils are affected considerably by the temperature change whereby the gain of the feedback amplifier changes. Accordingly, in the circuit of the present invention, the temperature change in the total gain of the accelerometer is removed by adding resistance elements to the negative feedback amplifier so as to cancel the positive temperature coefficient of resistance of the torquer coil and other elements.
