Abstract:
A cover thread cutter for a multi-needle sewing machine, the hook of the thread cutter retracts at an oblique angle above a curved cover thread laying finger and captures the cover thread at a position above the curved cover thread laying finger. While pulling the captured cover thread up to the cutting position, it is held against a specified needle, as in ordinary seam forming, and the thread end is held in this state after being cut off.
Abstract:
A taped chaining thread sewing device is designed to sew by operation of an overedge sewing machine a tape into the upper surface of the fabric sent into the needle location of the sewing machine, and also sew the chaining thread cut off from the preceding fabric into the lower surface of the fabric. The tape is cut off together with the unnecessary edge portion of the fabric by a cutter at the start of sewing of the leading end from the sewing part on the fabric. Before the final end of the fabric passes the cutter, a tape guide of the taped chaining thread sewing device moves, and therefore the unsewn portion of the tape is cut off together with the unnecessary edge portion of the fabric from the sewn part by the cutter. By the chaining thread sewn into the beginning part of sewing of the fabric, it is not necessary to perform any particular bar tacking job at the beginning of sewing in a separate process. By properly setting the timing by which movement of a holding part of a chaining thread processing device is effected in the direction crossing the fabric, the length of the chaining thread to be sewn in may be set to a specific length.
Abstract:
There is provided a method executed in a cluster system comprising a first computer and at least one second computer that stores the data transmitted from the first computer. The method comprising the steps of: judging whether the failure-occurred processing is restarted by the first computer or the failure-occurred processing is switched over by the second computer based on the system information; receiving the stored data from the second computer and re-executing the processing in which the failure has occurred by the first computer, in the case of which it is judged that the processing in which the failure has occurred is restarted by the first computer; and executing, by the second computer, the processing in which the failure has occurred, in the case of which it is judged that the processing in which the failure has occurred is switched over by the at least one second computer.
Abstract:
Grooves as ball rolling grooves are formed in a side peripheral wall of a preparatory formed body that is to be an inner member. A recess opened so as to be continuous to curved bottom sections of the grooves, which face a through-hole, is formed in one end surface of the preparatory formed body. In carburizing, carburizing gas entering into space between the through-hole and a support shaft member flows through the recess after coming into contact with inner teeth, and is then discharged to the outside of the preparatory formed body via the curved bottom sections of the grooves. On the contrary, the carburizing gas having been in contact with the curved bottom sections of the grooves flows through the recess to come to be in contact with the inner teeth and is then discharged through the space.
Abstract:
A switch apparatus, including: a substantially box-like case; a cylinder section; a lever; a substantially cylindrical columnar support; an engagement convex section; an engagement concave section; and a press-in section. The cylinder section is provided at a substantial center of the case and has at an inner circumference thereof a reception section. The lever is attached to the case and is pivoted and operated to provide an electric connection of switch contacts provided in the case. The columnar support is inserted to the cylinder section and has one end that is abutted with the reception section. The engagement convex section is provided at one of the reception section and the columnar support and the engagement concave section is provided at the other. The press-in section is provided at one of the engagement convex section or the engagement concave section. The engagement convex section is pressed-in to and engaged with the engagement concave section via the press-in section. The structure as described above provides a switch apparatus that has a simple configuration, that reduces the backlash when the lever is operated, and that can be operated in a favorable manner.
Abstract:
A valve system for an engine including a valve resting mechanism provided between an engine valve and a valve lifter supported by a cylinder head. The valve resting mechanism can place the engine valve into a resting state. The valve resting mechanism has a pin holder which includes a sliding hole having an axis perpendicular to the axis of a valve lifter, and an insertion hole for allowing a valve stem to pass therethrough. The pin holder is slidably fitted in the valve lifter. A slide pin is slidably fitted in the sliding hole, with a hydraulic force and a spring force applied to both ends of the slide pin. A containing hole is coaxially connectable to the insertion hole, and a rotation stopping means for stopping axial rotation of the slide pin is provided between the pin holder and the slide pin.
Abstract:
An electric current is passed through a mixed solution containing a saccharide(s) and an organogermanium compound, in a compartment whose anode side is defined by an anion exchange membrane and whose cathode side is defined by a cation exchange membrane, to separate and remove said organogermanium compound. In the present invention, an organogermanium compound can be very effectively separated and recovered from a mixed solution containing a saccharide(s) and said organogermanium compound. The present invention is particularly effective for separation and recovery of an organogermanium compound from a reaction mixture obtained when a compound having an aldose structure is isomerized into a compound having a ketose structure in the presence of said organogermanium compound.
Abstract:
In an engine valve drive control device, a cam lobe is removably engaged with a cam shaft of a valve actuating line of an engine. The cam lobe is rotated, when engaged, together with the cam shaft to drive a valve. Free rotation of the disengaged cam lobe is halted by a cam rotation halting device to leave the valve inactive. The cam lobe is made axially slidable in the axial direction with respect to the cam shaft, and the engagement/disengagement of the cam lobe with/from the cam shaft are switched according to the sliding motion of the cam lobe.
