Abstract:
A suspension coil spring includes a lower end turn portion, an upper end turn portion, and a helical effective portion formed between the end turn portions. The lower end turn portion includes a first portion which contacts a lower spring seat irrespective of a load, and a second portion which contacts the lower spring seat or is separated from the same according to the load. The wire diameter of the second portion is greater than that of the first portion and an average wire diameter of the effective portion. The upper end turn portion includes a third portion which contacts an upper spring seat, and a fourth portion. The wire diameter of the fourth portion is greater that of the third portion and the average wire diameter of the effective portion.
Abstract:
A tail pad portion is provided in a flexure tail including a metal base and a conductive circuit portion. Tail terminals are arranged in the tail pad portion. The metal base is made of stainless steel, and includes a frame structure having a first frame and a second frame. An opening is formed between the first and second frames. The tail terminals are arranged parallel to each other between the first and second frames. A bridge portion is provided between the first and second frames. The bridge portion is constituted of at least one conductive bridge member, and arranged at a position which does not overlap the tail terminals. One end of the bridge member is connected to the first frame, and the other end of the bridge member is connected to the second frame.

Abstract:
To provide a multi-shaft driving device that aims for a lightening of weight and lowering of cost as compared with conventional structures. In a structure in which, when a movable shaft (40) is slidably installed at an output shaft (20) and advances toward an input-side bevel gear (14), an output-side bevel gear (50) of a distal end side of the movable shaft (40) meshes-together with the input-side bevel gear (14), and the movable shaft (40) rotates and rotation of this movable shaft (40) is transmitted to the output shaft (20), the movable shaft (40) and the output-side bevel gear (50) are molded integrally of resin, and the output shaft (20) also is formed of resin, and the movable shaft (40) is slidably exteriorly placed on an outer peripheral side of the output shaft (20).
Abstract:
A clutch plate in an annular shape, the clutch plate includes: a plurality of lubricating grooves on one end face and the other end face of the clutch plate in an axial direction; and a plurality of windows passing through the clutch plate in the axial direction. The lubricating grooves are formed with plastic deformation, in a same phase on both the end faces, and extended up to outer peripheral edges and inner peripheral edges of both the end faces. A plurality of intersection points where the lubricating grooves intersect with each other are positioned in other areas than at least one of the outer peripheral edges, radially outer edges of the windows, radially inner edges of the windows, and the inner peripheral edges, of both the end faces.
Abstract:
A fuel cell stack has a stacked plurality of single cells. Each of the single cells has a membrane electrode assembly, and a pair of separators sandwiching the membrane electrode assembly therebetween. A cooling fluid channel where a cooling fluid flows is formed between adjacent single cells. The fuel cell stack further comprises a displacement absorbing member disposed in the cooling fluid channel to absorb a displacement between the single cells. The displacement absorbing member comprises a channel flow resistance reduction structure that reduces a channel flow resistance of the cooling fluid channel against the cooling fluid.
Abstract:
A compressive residual stress portion having a compressive residual stress from a surface of a wire to a first depth is formed between end turn portions of a coil spring. The first portion of the end turn portion is always in contact with a spring seat. The second portion contacts the spring seat when the load applied to the coil spring is large, and is separated from the spring seat when the load is small. The third portion is always separated from the spring seat. In the end turn portion, in a region including the second portion, a deep residual stress portion is formed by ultrasonic shot peening. The deep residual stress portion has a compressive residual stress from a surface of the wire to a second depth deeper than the first depth.
Abstract:
A probe unit includes: contact probes; and a probe holder, each of the contact probe including a plunger and a spring coil, each of the plunger including: a contact portion contacting an electrode of a contacted body; a flange portion extending from a base end of the contact portion and having a diameter larger than a diameter of the contact portion; a boss portion extending from an end of the flange portion different from an end continuing to the contact portion and having a diameter smaller than the diameter of the flange portion; and a base end portion extending from an end of the boss portion different from an end continuing to the flange portion and having a substantially same diameter with the boss portion.
Abstract:
A strut-type suspension includes a compression coil spring, a lower spring seat, an upper spring seat, and a shock absorber. The compression coil spring is disposed at a position offset to the outer side of a vehicle with respect to the shock absorber. The compression coil spring is mounted in a vehicle body in such a state that it is compressed between spring seats. The compression coil spring includes a large-diameter wire portion and a small-diameter wire portion. The large-diameter wire portion is provided in a vehicle inner-side portion of the compression coil spring. The small-diameter wire portion is provided in a vehicle outer-side portion. A wire diameter of the large-diameter wire portion is greater than a wire diameter of the small-diameter wire portion.
