Abstract: An alloy material includes: a composition, in a composition range of a ternary alloy of silver (Ag), palladium (Pd), and copper (Cu), the composition containing 20 to 30 wt % of Ag, 35 to 55 wt % of Pd, and 20 to 40 wt % of Cu. The composition as a base is added with tin (Sn) in a range of 0.5 to 2.5 wt %, further added with any one of or a combination of cobalt (Co), chromium (Cr), and zinc (Zn) in a range of 0.1 to 1.0 wt %, and added with 0.01 to 0.1 wt % of either one of or a combination of iridium (Ir) and ruthenium (Ru).

Abstract: A fuel lid opener has: a case that is mounted to an outer peripheral surface of a side wall of a lid box at which a fuel lid is pivotally supported so as to be able to open and close; a lifter that is supported at the case so as to be able to rotate around an axis that runs along a plate surface direction of the fuel lid that is in a closed state, and that has an arm portion that extends in a rotation radial direction within the lid box, and a distal end portion of the arm portion engages with the fuel lid that is in the closed state from a reverse surface side; and a heart cam mechanism that is provided within the case, and that, each time the arm portion of the lifter is push-operated in one direction around the axis via the fuel lid, causes the lifter to alternately repeat rotation in one direction and in another direction around the axis, and that pushes the fuel lid open due to rotation of the lifter in the another direction.

Abstract: A fuel lid opener-has: a heart cam mechanism that is structured so as to, each time a lifter is push-operated via a fuel lid, cause the lifter to alternately repeat advancing-out and withdrawing, and so as to push the fuel lid open due to advancing-out of the lifter; and a locking mechanism-that can restrict operation of the heart cam mechanism. At the locking mechanism, a time when a stopper is moved by operation of a motor, and the aforementioned restricting is released, the aforementioned stopper engages with the heart cam mechanism and operates the heart cam mechanism. Due thereto, the lifter advances-out, and the fuel lid is pushed open.

Abstract: A control cable connection structure includes a long, narrow casing, a casing end, a cable end and a slider. An end portion of a first conduit is anchored at one end portion, in a length direction, of the casing. An end portion of a second conduit is anchored at the casing end. The casing end is superposed and assembled with the casing in a radial direction of the second conduit. The cable end is attached to an end portion of a second inner cord. An end portion of a first inner cord is anchored at the slider. The slider is supported at the casing to be slidable in the length direction thereof. In the assembled state, the cable end is engaged with the slider at an opposite side from a side at which the second conduit is disposed, and the second inner cord is connected with the slider.
