A support structure for a shift lever includes a rotation shaft coupled to the shift lever, a base plate including a support that pivotally supports the rotation shaft to tiltably support the shift lever, a restriction member coupled to the base plate, and a fixing portion that fixes the restriction member to the base plate. The base plate includes a guide that guides the coupling of the restriction member to the base plate. The rotation shaft includes a main protrusion, which protrudes from an end surface of the rotation shaft in an axial direction, and an auxiliary protrusion, which protrudes in the axial direction from the end surface by a smaller protrusion amount than the main protrusion. The restriction member is fixed in contact with the main protrusion to restrict movement of the rotary shaft in the axial direction in cooperation with the restriction member and the support.

A hot bulge forming die apparatus forms a preheated tubular material 10a into a tubular material 10d. The hot bulge forming die apparatus includes a lower die 21B having a cavity surface 211B and an upper die 31B having a cavity surface 311B. An elongated hole 215 is formed in a circumferential edge portion 215 of the lower die 21B so as to extend outwards, and a projection 315 is formed on a circumferential edge portion 314 of the upper die 31B so as to fit in the elongated hole 215. When the dies are clamped together, the projection 315 formed on the circumferential edge portion 314 of the upper die 31B fits in the elongated hole 215 formed in the circumferential edge portion 214 of the lower die 21B.

Disclosed is a shift knob (31) of a driving mode switching device allowing switching of multiple driving modes by rotation of a lever member (523) having a holding unit (31a) on an upper end thereof. In a region extending from a first position in a direction of an axis of the lever member (523) to a bottom surface (315) of the holding unit (31a) located downward of the first position, a length of the holding unit (31a) in a radial direction thereof is equal to or longer than a length thereof in the radial direction at the first position.
摘要:
The present invention provides a sheet feeder, which can reliably feed a sheet without requiring the extra operation of a regulating member, and an image forming apparatus.The sheet feeder comprises an intermediate plate 4 provided in a cassette body 2 so as to rotate in up and down directions around a rotation fulcrum portion 4a. The cassette body 2 has a freely movable rear end regulating member 5. The rear end regulating member 5 has a holding portion 5a which prevents the rotation fulcrum portion 4a of the intermediate plate 4 from being detached from the cassette body 2. In the transportation, the rear end regulating member 5 is set to a position where the holding portion 5a prevents the rotation fulcrum portion 4a of the intermediate plate 4 from being detached from the cassette body 2 and the intermediate plate 4 can rotate.

The present application provides a vector for trapping an unknown gene of Drosophila melanogaster, which is a recombinant plasmid comprising the following nucleotide sequences in this order: an artificial consensus splicing acceptor site; a synthetic “stop/start” sequence; a reporter gene; a drug resistance gene; a gene responsible for a detectable phenotype of the Drosophila melanogaster; and a synthetic splicing donor site. The present application also provide a method for trapping an unknown gene of Drosophila melanogaster by using the vector.
摘要:
In a monitoring apparatus, a target-object to be monitored is observed by an observing unit and a countermeasure is applied depending on an observed situation. The knowledge and information on the general feature relating to the target-object, the observing method and the countermeasure method are prepared in the storing unit of the monitoring apparatus. The individual knowledge and information relating to the target-object are registered by the user in the storing unit by utilizing the general monitor-knowledge. In the monitor-plan executing unit, the observing method and the countermeasure method of the target-object are planned in accordance with the situation by utilizing the general monitor-knowledge and the individual monitor-knowledge, and the plan is executed.
