    摘要: An ice dispenser comprises an ice making device including an auger that rotates around a substantially vertical axis; a chip ice stocker having a cylindrical wall formed around an agitator that is attached to an upper end portion of the auger, and an opening formed on the cylindrical wall; and an opening open/closure device including a shutter pivotably joined to a bracket that is attached to the cylindrical wall via a connecting shaft, a plunger that is actuated at right angle to the connecting shaft by the electromagnetic action of a solenoid fixed on the bracket, and a link for joining the shutter and the plunger, a supporting pivot attached to the link parallel to the connecting shaft, a shutter lock arm pivotably supported around the supporting pivot and having a hollow portion shaped so as to engage an outer peripheral surface of the connecting shaft, and shutter lock spring means for locking the shutter by applying spring force to the shutter lock arm pivoted around the supporting pivot thereby pressing the hollow portion on the outer peripheral surface of the connecting shaft. The connecting shaft is provided with a sleeve formed from material which is softer than the shutter lock arm, and having an outer periphery surface which engages to the hollow portion.

    摘要: A switch device 1 has an outer frame 2, and a rotor 13 . A spring 14 is provided between the bottom 7 of the outer frame 2 and the rotor 13 in such a manner that its two ends are secured to the outer frame 2 and the rotor 13. The rotor 13 is operated with the aid of an operating knob 3. The bottom 7 has first and second body-side protrusions 9 and 10 which have sloped surfaces, and steps, and are arcuate. The rotor 13 has first and second operating-element-side protrusions 19 and 20 with respect to the body-side protrusions 9 and 10 which have sloped surface and steps and are arcuate. The rotor 13 has a rod 18. As the rotor 1 is operated, the rod 18 is protruded from a through-hole 8, thus performing a switching operation. When the switch device 1 is operated, the force of operation of the operating knob 3 is improved, being the sum of a frictional force attributing to the slip between the sloped surfaces of the protrusions 9 and 10 and the sloped surfaces of the protrusions 19 and 20.

    摘要: A bearing retainer having a body formed of steel has a nitride layer on the body surface. The average particle diameter of a nitride contained in the nitride layer is not more than 1 .mu.m. The surface of the retainer is subjected to fluoriding treatment, and is then subjected to nitriding treatment. The above-mentioned oxide is removed by replacing an oxide on the surface of the retainer with a metal fluoride film by the fluoriding treatment. In the nitriding treatment, a gaseous mixture of gas for nitriding, for example, ammonia gas and hydrogen gas for removing the metal fluoride film is brought into contact with the surface of the retainer. A precise and uniform nitride layer is obtained in a state where the oxide is reliably removed from the surface of the retainer.

    摘要: The invention detects the position of an eye in image of a driver's face quickly and with high reliability, even if the density of the driver's face image is not uniform on the right and left sides due to direct sunlight. Only one eye detection area is obtained on the dark side of the face image when the density of the face image is not uniform on the right and left sides. One eye window is detected in the one eye detection area, and an iris center is detected within the eye window to discriminate an inattentive driver who is dozing.
