Abstract: A damper device includes a cylinder, a piston, a seal ring member, and a transmitting portion. The piston includes an annular outer circumferential portion, a first stopper portion, a second stopper portion, and a projecting portion. The projecting portion has an inclined surface which is inclined radially outwards form a side of the second stopper portion towards a side of the first stopper portion. The seal ring member is configured to allow a first chamber to communicate with a second chamber when a portion of the seal ring member which is not restricted by the first stopper portion is deformed in a direction away from the second stopper portion due to friction caused between the seal ring member and the cylinder or a fluid pressure from the second chamber to ride on the inclined surface.

Abstract: A damper device provided between a fixed body having an opening portion and an openable and closable body mounted on the opening portion and configured to apply a braking force to the openable and closable body. An elastic resin member is mounted on a projecting portion provided on the openable and closable body. A receiving recess portion is provided on the fixed body to receive the elastic resin member. The elastic resin member has a base portion; a pair of arm portions; a bridge portion; and a stopper, which are formed integrally. The receiving recess portion has: an introducing portion configured to abut with the arm portions to bend them diametrically towards each other; and a restricting portion configured to abut with the stopper to restrict the openable and closable body from opening, when the openable and closable body opens to cause the elastic resin member to move.

Abstract: A damping device has a pin member inserted slidably in a cylindrical case member. The bottom of the case member has: a hole forming section in which an insertion hole is formed; and a slit for allowing the hole forming section to be expanded and deformed. The outer peripheral surface of the pin member and/or the inner peripheral surface of the hole forming section has a tapered section tilted relative to the axial direction. The movement of the pin member of being pressed into the insertion hole from the inside causes the outer peripheral surface of the pin member and the inner peripheral surface of the hole forming section to slide on each other along the tapered section, and as a result, the insertion hole is expanded.

Abstract: A lock device is provided with a housing, a rotary member, a pair of link rods provided with a hook part, a spring for the rotary biasing of the rotary member, and an operative member mounted so as to be able to be inserted into the housing. A cam protrusions formed in the rotary member, and a wall part having a cam slope which abuts the cam protrusion is formed in the operative member. The configuration is such that by inserting the operative member, the rotary member resists the biasing force of the spring and rotates, and the hook part of the link rods slides in a position in which it does not engage with the lock part.

Abstract: In a mounting tool for mounting an injector on a cylinder head of an engine by being engaged with the injector connected to a fuel pipe, and urging the injector toward the cylinder head, a first band portion has a ring shape so as to surround an outer circumference of the injector, and is disconnected in a circumferential direction by a slit. A second band portion has a ring shape so as to surround the outer circumference of the injector, is disconnected in the circumferential direction by a slit, and is arranged adjacent to the first band portion in an axial direction. Plural elastic band portions connect the first band portion and the second band portion in the axial direction. The mounting tool is made of a single metallic plate.

Abstract: A spring for sun visors includes a torque application section that extends from a holding section and applies torque when a main section is rotating. The holding section has a flat section that receives torque from a shaft. The torque application section has a first spring piece extending from one end of the holding section and a second spring piece extending from the other end of the holding section and being bent so as to fold back. The first spring piece has a first tip section that includes overhanging sections that are narrower than the width of the holding section. The second spring piece has a second tip section that is arranged so as to overlap on the outside of the overhanging sections. The overhanging sections are provided in an area extending from the torque receiving section to the first tip section.
