A variable-threshold-type differential signal receiver comprises a differential amplifier for comparing differential voltages of differential input signals with a predetermined threshold voltage so as to provide logical output signals. It further comprises an emitter follower and an impedance means, the output of the emitter follower being superimposed through the impedance means on one of the differential input signals, whereby the predetermined threshold voltage is variably controlled by controlling the input voltage of the first emitter follower.

A discharge lamp lighting device comprises a serial connection of an inductive ballast and a discharge lamp connected across an A.C. power source, and a switching circuit connected substantially in parallel to the discharge lamp and operable to carry out two consecutive ON/OFF operations in the beginning of each half cycle of the A.C. power source while the discharge lamp is in its lit condition. The switching circuit preferably comprises a full-wave rectifier connected substantially in parallel to the discharge lamp, a switching element connected between the output terminals of the rectifier, and a control circuit for controlling the ON/OFF operation of the switching element.

Like a conventional time division multiplex communication device, a device according to this invention comprises first terminals, a switching matrix, transducers or C/E buffers, control circuits, and second terminals. The first and second terminals are for low-speed and high-speed signal sequences. The control circuits are connected to the second terminals. In contrast to the conventional one, the transducers are connected to the respective first terminals, with the switching matrix interposed between the transducers and the control circuits and rendered capable of dealing with the high-speed signal sequences, among others, rather than the low-speed ones as in the conventional device. The devices are particularly useful in earth stations of TDMA satellite communication to which multi-transponder operation is applied, although useful also in carrying out conversion between low-frequency analog signal or PAM signal sequences and PAM signal sequences of a higher rate.

A swirl chamber type combustion chamber for an internal-combustion engine is divided into a main combustion chamber and a swirl chamber connected through a passageway with the main combustion chamber. The main combustion chamber includes a clearance part defined between a cylinder head and a piston of the engine, a concavity or piston chamber provided in the upper surface of the piston, and an air reservoir.The air reservoir is preferably provided in portions of the piston upper surface where the concavity of the main combustion chamber is not present. It is preferable, but not essential, that the air reservoir have a suitable number of holes with a diameter-deepness ratio of 1 to 4 arranged symmetrically with respect to the concavity so that a line connecting the centers of the piston and each hole makes an angle of substantially 30.degree. to 120.degree. with a longitudinal center line of the concavity.

This microlens array comprises hexagonal field diaphragms in inverted-image-forming positions, i.e., microlenses, a plurality of which are arranged in the direction perpendicular to a direction of scanning, and from which rows of microlenses are configured. Further, for three rows of microlenses, microlens rows are arranged with offset by (a length S) in a direction perpendicular to the direction of scanning such that triangular portions of the hexagonal field diaphragms overlap in the direction of scanning. Furthermore, microlens row groups, which are configured from three microlens rows, are arranged with offset in the direction perpendicular to the direction of scanning in increments of a minute amount of shifting F (for example, 2 μm). Thereby, this scanning exposure device using a microlens array is capable of preventing exposure ununiformity even in the direction perpendicular to the direction of scanning.

Low-pressure fire-extinguishing liquid is converted into mist. A fire-extinguishing spray nozzle (10) comprises a main body (30) and an obstacle (36). The main body (30) has a port (40) for radially injecting the fire-extinguishing liquid. The obstacle (36) is arranged within a radial injection region (102) of the fire-extinguishing liquid radially injected from the port (40). The obstacle (36) has an outer peripheral surface formed in the shape of a truncated-conical inclined surface (62). This enables the fire-extinguishing liquid (70) radially injected from the port (40) and passing around the obstacle (36) to collide with the fire-extinguishing liquid (72) radially injected from the port (40) and reflected from the inclined surface (62) so as to produce mist (74) of fire-extinguishing liquid. When producing the mist (74) by such an action, the fire-extinguishing liquid radially injected from the port (40) may have a low pressure. As a result, it is possible to provide a fire-extinguishing spray nozzle (10) which converts the low-pressure fire-extinguishing liquid into mist.

A multilayer wiring board having a plurality of wiring layers is proposed, which is prepared by a process having the steps of: forming, on one insulating sheet, wiring patterns for all the wiring layers, which patterns are arranged at predetermined positions; and folding the insulating sheet having formed the wiring patterns in the predetermined order and stacking the folded sheet while positioning, and then heating the resultant sheet in a vacuum under a pressure to form a three-dimensional electric wiring.

A pivot cam mechanism included in a valve operating system is configured such that a coupling pin is supported at a pivot member in a position closer to a camshaft than a control shaft, and the pivot member and the driven member are integrally pivotable according to the rotation of the drive cam while changing relative attitudes of the driven member and the pivot member. Positions and shapes of the drive cam, the driven member, and the pivot member are designed so that a valve maximum acceleration point at which an acceleration of a valve body is at a maximum is located in a front part of a valve acceleration period in which the acceleration of the valve body has a positive value while the drive cam is rotating once.

A lubricating system for a valve operating system includes a valve operating system configured to reciprocate a valve for substantially opening and closing a port connected to a combustion chamber of an engine, and an ejecting device provided with an outlet from which a lubricating liquid is ejected. The valve operating system includes a drive cam, a driven member configured to contact the drive cam, a pivot member which is attached to the driven member and is configured to transmit movement of the driven member to the valve, and a relative position changing device configured to change relative positions of the driven member and the pivot member. The outlet of the ejecting device is oriented to face sliding surfaces of the driven member and the drive cam at least in a period which is a part of one rotation of the drive cam.

A shape of a screw for fastening thin-sheets or thin-walled parts is characterized in that a value of ratio (P/D) of a pitch (P) to each of nominal diameters (D) of coarse thread in the shape of screw thread is reduced as compared to values of ratio of pitches to a corresponding nominal diameter of coarse thread in known kinds of screw thread standard, and the multiple number of thread start is set to 2 or more. Thus, for the thin-sheets and thin-walled parts in which three engaging ridges of screw threads cannot be secured when current metric coarse thread screw is used, the shape of the screw thread advantageous in strength and excellent in loose torque after vibration can be provided, since screw fastening is stabilized more than a case in which the metric coarse thread screws are used.
