Patent number: 6546722Abstract: A partitioning member for dividing a connecting pipe into at least two exhaust passageways is provided in the connecting pipe, which is attached to an exhaust side of a silencer. A valve mechanism is operable to vary the passageway area of one of the exhaust passageways. With this structure, for example, when an engine is rotating at low revs, exhaust gas is discharged from the exhaust passageway without the valve mechanism, while when the engine is rotating at high revs exhaust gas is simultaneously discharged from the exhaust passageway having no valve mechanism and a passageway provided with the valve mechanism. Therefore, it is possible to reduce exhaust noise when the engine is rotating at low revs.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2001Date of Patent: April 15, 2003Assignee: Honda Giken Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Mikio Sagara, Noritoshi Iwase, Kazuo Yamamoto, Masakazu Kadota, Hideo Koide, Yoshiaki Nakashima, Shinji Goto, Hiroaki Tsukui, Osamu Bunya

Patent number: 5570205Abstract: A facsimile apparatus includes a sheet carrier path adapted to serve dually as (i) an original sheet carrier path for conveying an original sheet, and (ii) a recording sheet carrier path for conveying a recording sheet. Driving rollers convey a sheet inserted into the sheet carrier path, the inserted sheet being at least one of an original sheet and a recording sheet. A reading device, disposed at a reading position in the sheet carrier path, reads the inserted sheet when the sheet has been conveyed by the driving rollers to the reading position. A printing device, disposed at a printing position in the sheet carrier path, prints (e.g., a confirmation) on the inserted sheet when the sheet has been conveyed by the driving rollers to the printing position. A detecting device detects a presence of the inserted sheet in the sheet carrier path, and a selecting device selects at least one of a transmitting mode and a receiving mode.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 1994Date of Patent: October 29, 1996Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yasutoshi Sugita, Kiyoharu Yoshioka, Yoshiaki Nakashima
