Abstract:
An internal combustion engine having first valve means disposed in the exhaust system and adapted to impart a resistance to the flow of exhaust gas to control the flow rate of the latter, and second valve means provided in the intake passage of said engine and adapted to introduce fresh air to the intake passage when r.p.m. of the engine has reached a predetermined value. During operation of the engine, a part of the exhaust gas is made to return into the combustion chamber due to the resistance imparted by the first valve means, and the unburned hydrocarbons in the exhaust gas returned to the combustion chamber are efficiently burned by the presence of fresh air which is introduced through the second valve means. Thus an improved internal combustion engine which can operate at a much improved fuel economy and which can minimize the emission of unburned hydrocarbons to the atmosphere is obtained.
Abstract:
An ignition plug for an internal combustion engine which comprises a hollow cylindrical main body having one externally threaded end portion and the other end portion in the form of a nut, said threaded end portion being provided with jet orifices, air guide grooves and a communication groove; a tubular anode member having an insulation body and extending through said main body; a center electrode extending through said insulation body; and a check valve assembly mounted about the intermediate portion between the two end portions of the main body, said valve assembly comprising a ring-shaped valve housing having a tapered seat face and air intake bores and a ring-shaped valve body reciprocally received in said valve housing and having a matingly tapered outer surface for opening and closing said air intake bores in the valve housing.
Abstract:
An electronic chime wherein at least two different audible frequency signals forming chime sound are generated by a frequency divider oscillated by an oscillating circuit capable of adjusting its output standard frequency clock pulse. These audible frequency signals are respectively amplitude modulated so as to be attenuated stepwise, and the chime sound is generated by such modulated signals and caused to disappear at attenuated state.
Abstract:
The method includes positioning an electronic component using main marks formed on a metal layer and mounting the electronic component on a second surface of the metal layer with an adhesive layer interposed between the metal layer and both of the electronic component and terminals; then burying the electronic component and the main marks in an insulating substrate; then removing part of the metal layer and forming a first window for exposing the main marks therefrom and a second window for exposing the adhesive layer including a position corresponding to the terminal therefrom; then using the exposed main marks as references and forming a laser via hole LVH reaching the terminal in the adhesive layer exposed from the second window; and thereby forming a wiring pattern from the metal layer electrically connected to the terminal through a first conductive via formed by plating the LVH with copper.

Abstract:
A differential amplifier achieving a high throughput rate with reduced power consumption includes a differential circuit, output circuit, a constant current source transistor, a drive transistor, and a switching circuit. A difference voltage relative to a difference between voltages applied to non-inverting and inverting inputs of the differential circuit is applied to the switching circuit. The switching circuit supplies a drive signal to the drive transistor to enable the drive transistor when the difference voltage is below a predetermined threshold voltage, and to disable the drive transistor when the difference voltage is above the predetermined threshold voltage.
Abstract:
To eliminate defects such as burr, rollover, sags, scar, etc. from cut-off surfaces of a workpiece in a turret punch press, for instance, a novel height-different punch formed with a lower front edge, an upper rear edge, and an intermediate edge extending between the two edges is used for the punch press. While feeding the workpiece on a horizontal plane in a predetermined direction, the punch is struck by a striker at a first stroke so that the lower front edge thereof cuts off the workpiece partially in cooperation with a die; at the succeeding strokes so that the intermediate edge thereof cuts off the workpiece mincingly and curls refuse within a recess of the die; and at the last stroke so that the upper rear edge thereof cuts curled refuse away from the workpiece to complete a multistroke punching operation.
