摘要:
An apparatus for controlling a vehicle continuously variable transmission, including a directional control valve having a first spool movable between a shift-down and a shift-up position, a flow control valve including a second spool movable between a flow-restricting and a non-restricting position, and a first and a second solenoid-operated valve for applying an actuating pressure to the first and second spools. The directional and flow control valves and the solenoid-operated valves are adapted such that the first and second spools are moved toward the shift-up and flow restricting positions, respectively, when the actuating pressure is not applied to the spools, or when solenoid coils of the two solenoid-operated valves are both off. The directional control valve may have a shift-down chamber for receiving a pilot pressure to move the first spool to the shift-down position when a failure of one of the solenoid coils exists while the vehicle speed is lower than a predetermined limit.

For an automatic transmission for a vehicle including a speed stage shifting device such as shown in FIG. 1 in which the clutch C.sub.1 is adapted to be engaged when the 2nd speed stage and the 3rd speed stage are set up and disengaged when the 4th speed stage is set up, the engagement of the clutch C.sub.1 being essential for setting up the 2nd speed stage while the engagement of the clutch C.sub.1 is not essential for setting up the 3rd speed stage unless engine brake availability is required, a hydraulic control device includes a first passage 235 and a second passage 329 for supplying a hydraulic pressure to the clutch C.sub.1 in parallel with one another, the first passage having a substantially less fluid flow resistance than the second passage, and a fluid flow switching over mechanism including a 1-2 shift valve 210 and a C.sub.1 control valve 300 for alternatively communicating the first or the second passage while interrupting the second or the first passage according to whether the 2nd speed stage or the 3rd speed stage is set up. An accumulator 450 may be provided in the second passage 329. Further, a one way val e 469, or more desirably a parallel connection of the one way valve 469 and an orifice 467 may be provided between the accumulator and the clutch C.sub.1.

In an automatic transmission for a vehicle such as an automobile having a speed stage shifting mechanism including parallelly arranged first and second hydraulically operated input clutches and adapted to provide the 3rd speed stage in which the first and second input clutches C.sub.1 and C.sub.2 are both engaged (though the engagement of the clutch C.sub.1 in the 3rd speed stage is not essential unless engine brake availability is required) and the overdrive 4th stage in which the clutch C.sub.1 is disengaged and the clutch C.sub.2 is engaged, the clutch C.sub.1 in the 3rd speed stage being not essential unless engine a hydraulic control device has a switching over valve 330 for switching over supply of a hydraulic pressure to the first clutch C.sub.1 between a first mode of relatively slowing supplying the hydraulic pressure to the first clutch C.sub.1 and a second mode of relatively quickly supplying the hydraulic pressure to the first clutch C.sub.1 according to engine output power so as to select the second mode when engine output power is higher than a determinate power level as in the downshifting by kickdown and to select the first mode when engine output power is less than the determinate power level as in the overdrive inhibition.

A process for producing a urethane die. A heat-resistant epoxy adhesive is applied to the inner surface of a recess provided in the body of a die. A urethane primer is applied to the adhesive while the adhesive is still in a semi-hardened state. A punch is inserted into the recess to form a space between the recess and the punch and a urethane resin is injected into the space to form a resin layer on the recess having a shape corresponding to the outer surface of the punch. A reinforcing fibrous material may be incorporated into the resin layer by applying a urethane resin having a lubricant incorporated therein to the surface of the punch and adhering a fibrous material impregnated with the urethane resin to the coated surface of the punch prior to inserting the punch into the recess. d

A tremolo device for a guitar which includes a flat plate pivotably mounted about a fulcrum on a guitar body, a bar secured to the flat plate to receive and anchor strings of the guitar, at least one tension spring for exerting pressure against the flat plate and the bar in one rotating direction, against the tension of the guitar strings, a tremolo arm screwed into the flat plate to oscillate the flat plate and the bar to thereby produce a tremolo effect, a stabilizing plate provided on the bar to stabilize the initial position of the flat plate and the bar, and an abutting mechanism provided on the guitar body to support the flat plate and the bar through the stabilizing plate. The stabilizing plate has a dead point on the periphery thereof, and when the abutting mechanism comes into contact with that dead point, the flat plate and the bar can be most stably supported by the abutting mechanism.

This invention pertains to a water-insolubilized resin of a polymer of at least one monomer selected from N-alkyl- or N-alkylene-substituted acrylamides or methacrylamides represented by the following general formula (I): ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 mean individually a hydrogen atom or methyl group and R.sub.3 denotes a methyl, ethyl or propyl group, with the proviso that R.sub.3 is an ethyl or propyl group when R.sub.2 stands for a hydrogen atom, and that R.sub.3 is a methyl or ethyl group when R.sub.2 stands for a methyl group, or wherein R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 form --CH.sub.2).sub.4 or --CH.sub.2).sub.2 O--CH.sub.2).sub.2 in combination; or a copolymer of at least one monomer selected from the acrylamides or methacrylamides and another copolymerizable monomer. The resin has water-absorbing capacity which varies in degree depending on temperature and, when heated, undergoes shrinkage even in the presence of a large excess of water to release once-absorbed water. Because of this property, it may be used as a water-separating agent to remove water from a water-containing system. Since the resin can exhibit a sort of molecular sieve action, it can selectively control the concentration of a macromolecular material without affecting the concentration of a low molecular weight compound such as a buffer agent. The resin is useful particularly in concentrating an aqueous solution or emulsion containing a material susceptible to thermal denaturation, such as an edible substance, amino acid, protein, polysaccharide or, enzyme which is difficult to concentrate by the evaporation technique, and also in controlling the concentration of an aqueous solution while adjusting the degree of water-absorbing capacity of the resin by varying its temperature.

摘要:
A dazzle-free reflection mirror, which may be used as an inner mirror or an outer mirror of a vehicle, has an electro-optical element of which transparency is changed by applying an electric field thereto in order to effectuate a dazzle-free operation. The dazzle-free reflection mirror comprises a dazzle-free portion to effectuate the dazzle-free operation at a lower part of the mirror surface and a non-dazzle-free portion not to effectuate the dazzle-free operation at the rest part of the mirror surface. The dazzle-free portion shields light from following-vehicle headlights at night so that the driver feels no glaring. The non-dazzle-free portion clearly images a rear view so that the driver can see an appearance of the following vehicle.
