Abstract:
A Hall effect type sensing device comprises a magnetic circuit, a Hall transducing element arranged in the magnetic circuit to output a signal depending on a change in magnetic flux, a magnetic flux changing member which is able to change the magnetic flux in the magnetic circuit, a gap part which allows the magnetic flux changing member to move therein, and a frame member having its one side provided with a recessed portion forming the gap portion, and having its other side provided with an accommodation portion at a position adjacent to the recessed portion, the accommodation portion housing the Hall transducing element and a member forming the magnetic circuit.
Abstract:
This invention relates to an ignition distributor for an internal combustion engine and more specifically relates to a novel reluctor included in an ignition distributor for discriminating between cylinders of an engine. The reluctor has an elongated shape and is arranged relative to the rotating shaft of an ignition distributor so that the gravity center of the reluctor is located exactly on the rotational axis of the shaft. This arrangement enables the rotational movement of the shaft to be concentrated, so that the wear to which the bearings supporting the shaft is subjected is significantly reduced. The reluctor is attached to the governor base of an ignition distributor without any rivets by virtue of the novel configuration thereof, so that a reduction in the number of parts can be achieved, together with reduction in the total production cost.
Abstract:
A rotational position sensor device for an internal combustion engine is disclosed, in which a sleeve member penetrating and rotatable in unison with a cam shaft is mounted on a rotational position sensor mounting member secured to an engine body, and a member with a slit for co-operation with a rotational position sensor is mounted on the sleeve. The performance of the device thus can be confirmed without actually assembling the device for use.
Abstract:
An ignition coil for an internal combustion engine can increase a contact area between an end of a GND line terminal and a bolt thereby to reduce the contact resistance therebetween. In the ignition coil, a GND potential is ensured by the GND line terminal that is electrically connected at one end thereof to an igniter and at the other end thereof to the internal combustion engine through a bolt inserted into a bolt insertion hole formed in a mounting flange. The GND line terminal is formed at the other end thereof with a bearing surface portion having a hole into which the bolt is inserted. At least part of an inner diameter of the hole in the bearing surface portion is smaller than an inner diameter of the bolt insertion hole.
Abstract:
An ignition apparatus for an internal combustion engine can prevent dielectric breakdown resulting from voids, thus making it possible to reduce its size. The apparatus includes a primary bobbin, a primary coil formed of a primary coil conductor wound around the primary bobbin, a secondary bobbin arranged in concentric relation to the primary bobbin, a secondary coil formed of a secondary coil conductor wound around the secondary bobbin, an insulation casing receiving therein the primary bobbin, the primary coil, the secondary bobbin and the secondary coil, and an insulating resin filled into the insulation case. Grooves for guiding the insulating resin between the primary bobbin and the primary coil are formed on an outer peripheral surface of the primary bobbin around which the primary coil conductor having a polygonal cross section is wound.

Abstract:
A transformer terminal is configured as a single part that includes: a base portion; a first connecting portion that is formed at a first end of the base portion and to which a winding finish end portion of a secondary wire can be connected; and a second connecting portion that is formed at a second end of the base portion and to which a high-voltage terminal can be connected. The base portion is mounted to a first flange portion of a secondary bobbin so as to be pivotable around an axis of the base portion such that the second connecting portion can adopt a withdrawn position that is shifted axially away from radially outside a secondary wire winding region of the secondary bobbin and a connecting position that aligns with the high-voltage terminal that is radially outside the secondary wire winding region.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes plural toner image forming devices. Each of which has a rotating photoconductor, a charging device that uniformly charges a surface of the photoconductor, a latent image forming device that forms an electrostatic latent image on the surface of the charged photoconductor, a developing device that develops the electrostatic latent image on the surface of the photoconductor to a toner image, and a developing container that contains toner used by the developing device. A diameter of the photoconductor of at least one toner image forming device is formed larger than a diameter of the photoconductor of the other toner image forming devices. Each developing container of all the toner image forming devices is formed in equal-sized, and a center of rotation of a developing roll of each developing device is arranged in a position upper than a center of rotation of each photoconductor.
