Abstract:
An LCD device in an LCD projector includes a TFT substrate, a counter substrate, an LC layer sandwiched between the TFT substrate and the counter substrate, and a pair of compensation substrates attached onto the outer surfaces of the TFT substrate and the counter substrate far from the LC layer. The compensation substrate has a negative coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) for compensating the retardation caused by a temperature rise of the TFT substrate and the counter substrate due to irradiation thereof by a light source.
Abstract:
Separation of, or damage to, the inlet duct and outlet duct connected to a belt-type variable transmission is reduced, and durability of the belt-type variable transmission is improved, by preventing induction of foreign matter such as water, mud, sand or dust into the inlet duct. An induction box is provided between a front cover and a front upper part of a vehicle frame that extends above the front wheel axle shaft, and this induction box is fixed to a side of the vehicle frame. A cooling air induction port is provided in an upper face of the induction box adjacent to the bottom face of the front cover. A duct linkage port in the bottom face of the induction box and an air induction port of the belt-type variable transmission are connected by an inlet duct. A positioning element in the form of a fitting hook is formed unitarily and in one piece with the inlet duct on a middle portion of the inlet duct so that the positioning element positions the middle portion of the inlet duct with respect to structural members of the vehicle frame.
Abstract:
A piezoelectric transformer element includes electrodes formed on a maximum-area of the front surface and rear surface of a long-plate shaped piezoelectric body. A case in which the piezoelectric transformer element is housed includes first lead terminals and second lead terminals. The first lead terminals press the electrodes on the front surface of the piezoelectric transformer element and are electrically connected to the electrodes. The second lead terminals press the electrodes on the rear surface of the piezoelectric transformer element and are electrically connected to the electrodes. The piezoelectric transformer element is held within the case by the first and second lead terminals and ring-shaped elastic bodies in which the piezoelectric transformer element is inserted. Thus, inhibition of vibration of the piezoelectric transformer element is suppressed and energy conversion efficiency of the piezoelectric transformer element is improved.
