A damping force detecting apparatus for detecting a damping force of a variable damping force type shock absorber including a cylinder and a piston slidably inserted thereinto. The damping force detecting apparatus comprises a piezoelectric element assembly for generating a charge corresponding to a pressure applied thereto and a pressurizing device for pressurizing the piezoelectric element assembly. The piezoelectric element assembly has a diameter smaller than a cylindrical piston rod fixedly secured to the piston and is housed therein. The pressurizing device is screwed into the piston rod so as to be in contact relation to the piezoelectric element assembly for pressurizing the piezoelectric element assembly in correspondance with a distortion of the piston rod generated in the sliding directions of the piston with respect to the cylinder due to expanding and contracting action of the shock absorber.

In a lubricant contamination measuring device, an optical path gap is provided between a light source window at a light source side and a light receiving window at a light receiving element side. A lubricant having an amount of contaminant to be measured in accordance with a light transmittance is present in the optical path gap and the length of the optical path gap is selected to be shorter than a predetermined length. At least one of the light source and light receiving windows has a convex shape, and the center of the convex window is in contact with a surface of the other window. Thus, the amount of contaminant in the lubricant can be measured up to a high contamination range.

A scroll compressor wherein a cylinder is provided along the end plate of a stationary scroll member and a plurality of bypass holes which open in the end plate and can communicate with the space in the cylinder and a plurality of operating spaces formed between the spiral vanes of the stationary scroll member and a moving scroll member are successively opened by a plunger to communicate with the suction side, whereby the capacity may be changed smoothly. When reducing the capacity to close to 0 percent, another cylinder and plunger are used to bypass the discharge pressure to the suction side.

A scroll-type pump suitably used as a compressor in an automobile air-conditioning system. The pump is provided with a stationary scroll member and a movable scroll member, which movable scroll member rotates while maintaining contact with the stationary scroll member. A scroll shape of each of the scroll members is formed by a plurality of alternately arranged arc sections of a small radius of curvature and arc sections of a large radius of curvature smoothly connected to each other. A pump having an overall shape which corresponds to the shape of the space in which the pump is to be arranged in the vehicle is obtained.

A through-vane type rotary compressor having a cylinder chamber of novel shape wherein a segment of the peripheral edge of the cylinder chamber connecting two circularly arcuate segments together has a shape represented by the formula ##EQU1## and the slider has opposite ends each maintained in sliding contact with the peripheral edge at its arcuate end. The slider smoothly rotates along the peripheral edge of the cylinder chamber without impinging thereon while the acceleration of the sliding movement of the slider shows smooth changes.

An optical velocity measuring apparatus applicable to measurement of the velocity of a vehicle relative to the road. A pair of light sensors mounted on the bottom of the vehicle body spaced from each other in a direction of the movement of the vehicle respectively receive rays of light reflected from different spots on the road through an optical system and produce electric signals indicative of the surface conditions of the spots. A time lag from the detection of a particular spot by the forward light sensor until the backward light sensor detects the same spot is measured to determine the velocity of the vehicle. The optical system is comprised of first and second lenses each having a peripheral portion cut away by a plane parallel to the optical axis. The first and second lenses are aligned so that the cut away faces are in contact with each other and that the optical axes are in parallel to and spaced a predetermined distance from each other.

A vane compressor capable of obtaining a two stage compression. The compressor has a front and rear rotor 6a and 6b for defining, together with a cylinder bores 43 and 44, first and second operating chambers 39 and 40, respectively. A refrigerant from a first inlet opening 28 is sucked into the first operating chamber 39 by a rotation of the front rotor 6a for obtaining a first stage compression at the first chamber 39. The refrigerant is then introduced, via an intermediate pressure chamber 36, to the second operating chamber 40 for obtaining a second stage compression at the second chamber 40, which is discharged outwardly.

A piston in a first cylinder is driven as a piezoelectric element group, which includes a plurality of laminar piezoelectric elements stacked in layers, extends or contracts. A second cylinder is formed so as to connect with a first fluid pressure chamber which is defined in the first cylinder by the piston. A piston-shaped valve member is disposed in the second cylinder. The valve member is urged toward the first fluid pressure chamber by a spring. The first fluid pressure chamber is supplied with a fluid whose pressure is set by means of a selector valve. When the selector valve is closed, the fluid pressure chamber is defined as an independent compartment. In this state, high voltage is applied to the piezoelectric element group to elongate it, thereby driving the piston. Thus, the valve member is actuated by the fluid pressure inside the first fluid pressure chamber, and a fluid passage is opened and closed by the valve member.

A hydraulic device having a first shaft including a first rotor, and a second shaft including a second rotor, the first and second rotors being constructed by adjacently fitting the same shape rotor elements, respectively. The rotor elements have teeth on the outer periphery thereof at a constant interval, and each tooth has a tip portion fluid-tightly engaged with an inner wall of a housing of the device. The rotor elements are adjacently fitted to the shaft in such a manner that the rotor elements are displaced in the same rotational direction along the axial direction of the shaft. The teeth tip portions of the rotor elements adjacent to each other are overlapped so that spiral paths are defined on the outer surface of the rotor.
