Abstract:
A porous optical fiber preform dehydration and sintering apparatus capable of improving the sealing performance between an upper lid and an elevating shaft and between the upper lid and a furnace tube or a furnace body, wherein an upper opening of a furnace tube for accommodating a porous optical fiber preform is shut by the upper lid, a preform holder is provided at the bottom end of an elevating shaft passing through the upper lid to be freely elevated therethrough, the porous optical fiber preform in the furnace tube is heated by a heater provided around the outer circumference of the furnace tube, the upper lid is formed by a metal, the preform holder is formed by a quartz glass or a ceramic, a corrosion-resistant layer is provided on an inner surface of the upper lid, a seal member made of rubber or resin is provided in an elevating shaft passage of the upper lid.
Abstract:
An electromagnetic fuel injection valve for an internal combustion engine having a housing which houses a valve, a needle valve element, a movable core, an electromagnetic actuator and spacer. The housing is made of magnetic material forms a magnetic flux circuit with the electromagnetic actuator and the movable core. The cylindrical housing is made of a plate material which comprises a portion facing the movable core, and the portion has a substantially minimum thickness to actuate the movable core.
Abstract:
A device for preventing a substrate from jamming in a copier includes a guide member that directs a substrate from a substrate supply tray to a photosensitive member. The guide member is adapted to be vibrated by a vibration generator in order to prevent substrates passing through the guide member from jamming.
