A valve chamber is defined in a valve body of the regulating check valve. A first communicating hole and a second communicating hole communicate the valve chamber with a first flow passage and with a the second flow passage, respectively. A valve element is slidably installed in the valve chamber to seat on or lift away from a valve seat to close or open the first communicating hole. A pressure in the first flow passage urges the valve element away from the valve seat, and a pressure in the second flow passage urges the valve element toward the valve seat. The spring is interposed between the valve element and the valve body to urge the valve element away from the valve seat.

Out of synthesized waveforms of vibrations in a first frequency band A to a third frequency band C, a knock magnitude N is calculated by using a portion β having an integrated value greater than a reference magnitude in a knock region but not using a portion having an integrated value greater than the reference magnitude out of the knock region (i.e., a region obtained by excluding the knock region from a knock detecting gate). In a case where knock magnitude N is greater than a determination value V(KX), it is determined that knocking occurs. In contrast, in a case where knock magnitude N is not greater than determination value V(KX), it is determined that no knocking occurs.

A driving support apparatus has a display mounted in a vehicle, a driving information receiving unit receiving a steering angle of a steering wheel of the vehicle, and a control unit. The control unit produces a vehicle figure imitating a shape of the vehicle and a tire figure imitating a shape of a tire of the vehicle in a bird's-eye view, calculates a predicted running locus of the vehicle, detects positions of portions of an obstacle facing the vehicle one after another, and controls the display to display a driving support image including the vehicle figure, the tire figure, the running locus and obstacle detecting marks indicating the positions of the obstacle while changing a direction of the tire figure with respect to the vehicle figure according to the steering angle. A driver recognizes a turning rate of the vehicle from the direction of the tire figure.

In an integrated transformer assembly, a common coil member has a first portion alternately wound, for each one electromagnetic turn, around the first core member and around the second core member. The first portion of the common primary coil member wound around the first core member is magnetically linked to the first magnetic path thereof so as to constitute a first primary coil. The first portion of the common primary coil member wound around the second core member is magnetically linked to the second magnetic path thereof so as to constitute a second primary coil. The first and second primary coils are connected in series. A secondary coil member has first and second secondary coils. The first and second secondary coils are arranged to be magnetically linked to the first and second primary coils of the common primary coil member, respectively.

An image correction apparatus, an image correction method and a transformation map making method are disclosed. The apparatus includes an imaging device, a memory section, a corrected image creation section and a display device. The imaging device has an optical axis inclined upward or downward with respect to a ground surface, and captures an image. The corrected image creation section transforms the captured image into a corrected image in accordance with a transformation map stored in the memory section, thereby making a correction on inclination of a display object with respect to a vertical direction. The display device displays the corrected image.

An ON-ignition signal is outputted from an ignition control portion in a period from a posterior time point of the power stroke to an valve opening timing of an exhaust valve so that a capacitor is charged. Then, when it is determined that the maximum value of an ion-output value detected during a negative valve overlap period becomes greater than or equal to a threshold, it is determined that the applied voltage between an center electrode and a ground electrode of a spark plug is dropped. The ON-ignition signal is outputted again to charge the capacitor before the intake valve is opened.

It is equipped with an injector body 4z which has formed therein high-pressure paths 6az, 6bz, and 6cz through which high-pressure fuel flows to a spray hole and stores therein a piezo-actuator 2z (i.e., an opening/closing mechanism) and a back-pressure control mechanism 3z (i.e., an opening/closing mechanism) which open or close the spray hole, and a fuel pressure sensor 50z installed in the body 4z to measure the pressure of the high-pressure fuel. The body 4z has formed therein a branch path 6ez diverging from the high-pressure paths 6bz and 6cz to deliver the high-pressure fuel to the fuel pressure sensor 50z.

It is determined whether each of several subcarriers has an adequate propagation characteristic in a first horizontally polarized wave antenna. Of the several subcarriers, a subcarrier, which is determined to have an adequate propagation characteristic in the first horizontally polarized wave antenna, is assigned with transmission data. A transmission signal containing the transmission data is thereby transmitted from the first horizontally polarized wave antenna. In addition, of the several subcarriers, a subcarrier, which is determined not to have an adequate propagation characteristic in the first horizontally polarized wave antenna, is also assigned with transmission data in either a second horizontally polarized wave antenna or a vertically polarized, wave antenna. A transmission signal containing the transmission data is thus transmitted from the second horizontally polarized wave antenna or the vertically polarized wave antenna.

In a power transmission device 41, a tapered inner circumferential surface 79 increasing its diameter toward a rotating shaft body 47 is formed in a hub 75, and a tapered outer circumferential surface 83 increasing its diameter toward the rotating shaft body 47 is formed in a tubular member 81 and press-fitted to the tapered inner circumferential surface of the hub 75 so that, when an excessive load is applied between a rotating body 45 and a pulley 69, the hub 75 rotates with respect to the rotating shaft 45 and the tubular member 81 is withdrawn from the tapered inner circumferential surface 77 of the hub 75 and power transmission between the rotating shaft 45 and the pulley 69 is interrupted. Therefore, variation of working torque can be reduced.
