摘要:
The present invention provides a malfunction diagnostic apparatus for an evaporated fuel purge system in an internal combustion engine, capable of detecting abnormalities such as looseness or clogging in the purge line between a purge valve and an engine intake passage. An electric pump 14 is turned on when a purge valve 5 is in a closed state and a selector valve 20 is in an open state. After the lapse of a given time period Tref, a load-current initial value I1 of the electric pump 14 is detected at the moment switching the selector valve 20 to a closed state. After the lapse of a given time period Tpump, the purge valve 5 is switched to an open state, and a load-current final value at the moment after the lapse of a given time period Tpurge. As in the curve A, when a load current final value I2A is equal to or less than the load current initial value I1, it is determined that the gaseous communication state in the purge line between the purge valve 5 and the intake passage is normal. On the other hand, as in the curves B and C, when load current final values I2B and I2C are greater than the load current initial value I1, it is determined that the gaseous communication state is abnormal. In case of abnormality, when the difference I2B−I1 therebetween is less than a gaseous-communication-state determination threshold fT1 as in the curve B, it is determined that the purge line is in an open-air state. If the difference I2C−I1 is equal to or greater than the gaseous-communication-state determination threshold fT1 as in the curve C, it is determined that the purge line is in a clogging state.

A multi-function differential pressure sensor includes a semiconductor chip, a stationary base having a joining portion joined to a thick wall portion of the semiconductor chip, and a housing joined to the stationary base. The semiconductor chip is provided with a differential pressure detection unit, a static pressure detection unit, and a temperature detection unit. The joining portion of the stationary base is not thicker than the semiconductor chip. The stationary base has one or more thin wall portions located, in a plan view, within a circular pressure sensitive diaphragm of the semiconductor chip.

A shift-lock device has a locking member associated with a projection member to engage with the locking member for establishing locking engagement. One of the locking member and the projection member is rigidly connected to a selector of an automatic power transmission and the other is rigidly secured to a stationary member in the vehicular body. The locking member is normally and resiliently biased toward locking direction for establishing locking engagement with the projection member. The locking member is associated with a lock release actuator which is electrically operable and active for a predetermined period only when a predetermined safety condition is established.

A powered tilt steering arrangement for a vehicle using a motor which rotates unidirectionally. The powered tilt steering arrangement basically comprises: a steering column having an upper shaft and a steering wheel assembly; a tilt bracket pivotally mounted on a mounting bracket fixed to a vehicle body and on which the steering wheel assembly is mounted; a drive source such as the motor; an actuator in response to a rotational force of the motor for actuating the tilt bracket to pivot through a predetermined angular width with respect to the mounting bracket in a reciprocatory motion; and a lock mechanism for locking the steering assembly when the actuator is stopped so that the steering wheel assembly is placed and held at a desired optimum driving position within the predetermined angular width. In addition, the powered tilt steering arrangement is preferably provided with a jump up mechanism which automatically tilts the steering wheel assembly toward a predetermined upper limit angular position by means of a spring force when the vehicle driver leaves the vehicle through a door so as not to obstruct the driver. Furthermore, the jumped up steering wheel assembly is returned to the originally set optimum driving position when the steering wheel assembly is depressed with the door being closed and the driver restarting the vehicle.

An acyloxylation catalyst is obtained by loading (a) a first component containing at least one element of Groups 8, 9, 10 and 11 of the Periodic Table, (b) a second component containing an element which is at least one element of Groups 8, 9, 10 and 11 of the Periodic Table and which is different from the element of the first component, and (c) a third component containing an element which is a component that produces a precipitation-starting pH below the precipitation-starting pH of the first component and second component and which is different from the elements of the first component and second component, onto (d) a support. A catalyst is obtained that can be used to efficiently carry out acyloxylation for economical production of acyloxylated compounds.

An interlocking device includes two opposed racks having intermeshable teeth, respectively, a guide surface disposed on one of the opposed racks, a guide, and a resilient retainer holding the guide against the guide surface for sliding movement of the guide relative to the guide surface. The guide and the guide surface cooperate with each other to provide an arrangement wherein when the one rack is pressed against the other rack, the guide comes into engagement with the other rack and the guide surface slides on the guide, causing meshing engagement of the teeth of the one rack with the teeth of the other rack.

A coupling for a vehicle steering unit includes a first linking section including two leg portions extending from a hub portion and a second linking section including two wings extending from and integrated to the hub portion and protrusions on the wings pierced with holes for the passage of a tightening bolt for tightening the wings to bear radially on a shaft. The wings are terminated at a longitudinal slot extending substantially in parallel to an axis of rotation of the coupling. This longitudinal slot is wide enough to allow the passage of the shaft.
