An algin-containing food or beverage comprises a low-molecular weight algin which has a weight-average molecular weight in the range of 10,000-900,000 and still functions as a dietary fiber and has beneficial effects on the health. The algin can be prepared by subjecting a high-molecular weight naturally occurring algin or its derivative to heat treatment at a temperature of 100.degree.-200.degree. C. under pressure.

In a hydraulic tensioner having a relief valve inside its plunger, a relief valve spring-receiving plug, press-fit into the plunger is formed by forging a plurality of flat surfaces on its exterior. These flat surfaces, in cooperation with the cylindrical inner wall of the plunger, form plural oil passages, each having a segment-shaped cross-section. The oil passages allow flow of oil past the plug to a discharge opening at the front end of the plunger, and the flow of oil is substantially unaffected by circumferential displacement of the oil passages on the periphery of the plug relative to the oil passages on the periphery of the relief valve seat.

An electric motor comprising an inner periphery side rotor provided with inner peripheral permanent magnets with unlike poles, which are disposed alternately along a circumferential direction of the inner periphery side rotor, an outer periphery side rotor provided with outer peripheral permanent magnets with unlike poles, which are disposed alternately along a circumferential direction of the outer periphery side rotor, and a rotating device that varies a relative phase between the inner periphery side rotor and the outer periphery side rotor by rotating at least the inner periphery side rotor or the outer periphery side rotor around the rotational axis. The outer peripheral side rotor is arranged such that a rotational axis thereof is coaxial with a rotational axis of the inner periphery side rotor. The rotating device sets a variable width of the relative phase between the inner periphery side rotor and the outer periphery side rotor within a range of an electrical angle of below 180°.

A hydraulic tensioner for use on an internal combustion engine provided with a timing mechanism including a wrapping connecting member extended in a timing mechanism chamber defined by an end wall of a cylinder block provided with a main gallery opening into the timing mechanism chamber, and a timing mechanism covering structure, to transmit the rotation of a crankshaft to a camshaft. The hydraulic tensioner exerts pressure to the wrapping connecting member in a direction substantially perpendicular to the running direction of the wrapping connecting member. The hydraulic tensioner comprises a shoe held in direct contact with the wrapping connecting member, and a hydraulic tensioning device for biasing the shoe toward the wrapping connecting member. The hydraulic tensioning device is disposed in the timing mechanism chamber so as to cover the open end of the main gallery. The timing mechanism covering structure has a timing mechanism cover provided with a handhole formed at a position corresponding to the hydraulic tensioning device.

A printing apparatus includes: a printing unit that allows a print head to print on a recording medium in a forward path and a return path by reciprocating the print head with respect to the recording medium; a correcting unit that performs correction for a misalignment between printing in the forward path and printing in the return path based on a correction value; an acquisition unit that acquires a temperature inside the printing apparatus or an ambient temperature thereof and/or a counter value which increases or decreases each time a predetermined operation is performed by the printing apparatus; a correction value candidate acquisition unit that acquires correction value candidates based on the temperature and/or the counter value; and a printing example output unit that outputs printing examples of which position discrepancies are corrected in accordance with correction value candidates for each correction value candidate.

There is provided a balance shaft housing (an upper housing 14U, a lower housing 14L) disposed in an oil pan (7) for accommodating balance shafts (13L, 13R) provided with counterweights (19) for canceling out a vibromotive force caused by pistons, characterized in that the housing comprises housings which are divided along a plane which is parallel with the balance shafts, and gaps (37) are formed between edge surfaces of respective side walls of the divided housings which are brought into contact with the plane for discharging lubricating oil from the housing, and that eaves-like projecting portions (38) are integrally formed on the upper housing (14U) of the divided housings for covering the surfaces confronting the gaps, whereby the eaves-like projecting portions help not only prevent lubricating oil from flowing into the housing but also enhance the rigidity of the housing.

The present invention provides a hybrid vehicle including a first transmission path that transmits a traction of an engine to driving wheels and a second transmission path that transmits a traction of a motor to the driving wheels, and the hybrid vehicle runs by alternatively selecting either the first or second transmission path or in combination thereof. The first transmission path has a first reduction gear ratio that is defined to be smaller than a reduction gear ratio at which a maximum vehicle speed can be achieved by the traction of the engine alone.

A motor is provided with: an inner rotor having inner permanent magnets arranged in a peripheral direction and an outer rotor having outer permanent magnets arranged in the peripheral direction, the mutual axes of rotation of the inner rotor and the outer rotor being arranged coaxially, and a rotating device capable of making at least one of the inner rotor and the outer rotor rotate around the axes of rotation so as to change the relative phase between the rotors, wherein the rotating device includes: a first member which is integrally and rotatably provided with respect to the outer rotor; and a second member which is integrally and rotatably provided with respect to the inner rotor and which defines pressure chambers inside the inner rotor with the first member, and wherein a working fluid is supplied to the pressure chambers, thereby changing the relative phase between the rotors.
摘要:
An internal combustion engine (E) includes a crankshaft (5), and a bearing cap (8) supporting the crankshaft (5) for rotation. Permanent magnets (20) serving as magnetic field creating members are attached to the balance weights (W1a to W6a) formed integrally with the webs (W1 to W6) of the crankshaft (5). Coils (21) are attached to the bearing cap bodies (A1 to A4) of the bearing cap (8). The permanent magnets (20) and the coils (21) form electromechanical transducers (M1 to M6). A small gap can be formed and maintained between the permanent magnets (20) and the corresponding coils (21) with reliability without entailing substantial increase in the size of the internal combustion engine. The electromechanical transducers (M1 to M6)are controlled according to the operating mode of the internal combustion engine so as to serve as electric motors or generators.
