  • Patent number: 8998014
    Abstract: A resin lid for a container body with an opening in an upper part, including a body part that closes the opening and has an air hole, and a flap that includes a base, a hinge on a first end of the base, and a projection provided on a second end side of the base and fitted in the air hole. The flap is swingable around the hinge between a first position in which the projection fits in the air hole and a second position in which the air hole is open. The body part and flap are integrally formed. When the flap travels from the second to the first position, a tip of the projection comes into contact with a circumferential edge of the opening of the air hole on a side opposite the hinge, and the projection fits in the air hole as the flap elastically deforms.

  • Patent number: 7607675
    Abstract: A fixed member is non-rotatably attached to a suspension fork, and a rotatably installed movable member is attached to the fixed member so as to be operable in the up-down direction. An index mechanism enables the state of the movable member to be selected from either a state in which the movable member is movable in the up-down direction or a state in which the movable member is not movable in the up-down direction. The index mechanism is adapted so that, in the middle of the states, it cannot hold the relative positional relationship between the fixed member and the movable member. The suspension fork for a bicycle is inexpensive, easy to produce, and has a reliable lock function.
