Abstract:
Several embodiments of motor vehicles having transversely disposed supercharged engines. In each embodiment, the supercharger is positioned at one end of the engine so as to receive a source of unobstructed cooling air flow into the engine compartment. In each embodiment, the supercharger is driven directly from the engine but at the end opposite to which the normal accessories are driven. In some embodiments, the supercharger is driven from the engine flywheel and in other embodiments, it is driven either from one end of a camshaft or by means of an externally positioned shaft driven from the accessory end. In certain embodiments, the radiator is positioned in an offset relationship so that the supercharger does not receive air that is heated by the radiator and a baffle is provided for precluding against the transmission of heat to the supercharger.
Abstract:
Provided is a pneumatic tire having a tread surface in which two circumferential direction main grooves continuous in a tire circumferential direction are arranged on left and right sides of a tire center, and land portions are defined by the circumferential direction main grooves as ribs or blocks having lug grooves. Multiple fine grooves are provided in each of right and left walls of the circumferential direction main groove, the fine grooves being inclined to the tire circumferential direction and provided in regions along the circumferential direction main groove, covering at least 50% of the entire circumference thereof in total. In each of the two circumferential direction main grooves on corresponding tire shoulder sides, the fine grooves in the right and left walls are inclined to the tire circumferential direction in the same direction in a plan view in a tire radial direction. In each of the two circumferential direction main grooves on a tire center side, the fine grooves in the right wall and those in the left wall are inclined to the tire circumferential direction in directions opposite to each other in a plan view in the tire radial direction.
