  • Patent number: 10737624
    Abstract: A viewing device for a vehicle is provided with plural cameras, an image generation unit, a display and a switching control unit. The plural cameras have different imaging ranges. On the basis of captured images from one or a plural number of the cameras, the image generation unit generates plural viewing images that differ in at least one of viewpoint or viewing angle. The display displays the viewing images. The switching control unit is capable of switching a viewing image being displayed at the display to another of the viewing images.

  • Publication number: 20170328285
    Abstract: The present invention provides a compact throttle valve device with good valve responsiveness and small unnecessary vibrations, an engine, and a vehicle. A slotless brushless motor-driven throttle valve device has a throttle body provided with a tubular portion in which an intake air passage is formed, a throttle valve disposed in the tubular portion, and a slotless brushless motor serving as a drive motor for performing opening/closing drive for the throttle valve. The throttle body housing has a hole portion into which a fixing member for fixing the throttle body to a member to be attached is inserted. The hole portion is formed in the vicinity of the outer circumferential portion of the tubular portion. The compact, narrow slotless brushless motor is disposed near the hole portion formed in the throttle body, and the throttle valve device is very compact.

  • Patent number: 5111252
    Abstract: An electrophotographic copying machine includes a paper feeding tray and a paper discharging tray respectively attached to both end surfaces of a body, each of which has a first, a second and a third tray plates which are rotatably connected to each other. When the machine is not used, the first, second and third tray plates are contained in the body in a state where the same are collapsed and folded over each other and, when the machine is used, the first, second and third tray plates are withdrawn and developed. A plurality of ribs which are extended in a paper feeding direction are on one upper surface of the first plate attached to the body in a rotatable manner, and a plurality of through holes, or slits, which receive the ribs when the first, second and third tray plates are collapsed are formed on the second and third tray plates.

  • Patent number: 4290946
    Abstract: A process for preparing hexamethyleneimine from hexamethylenediamine, which comprises continuously reacting hexamethylenediamine at about 70 to 180.degree. C. in an inert solvent using a nickel catalyst and/or cobalt catalyst while maintaining the concentrations of hexamethyleneimine and hexamethylenediamine in the reaction mixture at 10% by weight or less and 25% by weight or less, respectively, by removing the hexamethyleneimine from the reaction system as soon as the hexamethyleneimine is formed.
