Abstract:
A three-dimensional image display apparatus which displays a three-dimensional image as a set of two-dimensional images by switching and displaying the two-dimensional images on a rotating self-luminous two-dimensional display panel while synchronizing with the rotation angle of the two-dimensional display panel. This three-dimensional image display apparatus comprises a rotation body for rotating the two-dimensional display panel while fixing and supporting, a support body for rotatably supporting the rotation body, compressing image data on the support body to display the two-dimensional image on the two-dimensional display panel, transmitting the compressed image data from the support body to the rotation body side, receiving the transmitted compression image data on the rotation body, and expanding the received compression image data on the rotation body so as to restore an original image data. The support body is external to the rotation body, and includes drive coils which generate a repulsive and an attractive force with magnets in the rotation body.

An engine starter includes a motor that comprises a drive shaft; and a unidirectional rotation clutch system that is helical-splined to the drive shaft. The clutch system includes a clutch inner; a clutch outer; a clutch roller that is interposed between the clutch outer and the clutch inner; and a spring that urges the clutch roller, wherein a compound film is formed on a surface of the clutch roller or surfaces of the clutch outer and the clutch inner.
Abstract:
A screw mounting hole and a female screw part are formed in a bearing part of a gear cover, and the screw insertion hole is formed in the idle shaft. The idle shaft is fixed to the gear cover by inserting a fixing screw through the screw mounting hole and screwing it into the female screw part through the screw insertion hole. A positioning groove in a predetermined position in relation to the screw insertion hole is formed in the end face of the idle shaft. When the positioning groove is disposed perpendicularly to an engine mounting surface and the idle shaft is fitted to the gear cover, the screw mounting hole is opposed to the screw insertion hole and, when the fixing screw is fitted, the confirmation of hole positions and the aligning of holes can be eliminated.

A data transfer control device in accordance with an exemplary aspect of the present invention includes a first communication unit that processes data transfer with a peripheral device, and a second communication unit that processes data transfer with a host device, wherein one of the first and second communication units serves as a preferential communication unit whose data transfer should have a high priority, and another of the first and second communication units serves as a non-preferential communication unit, when the data transfer is being performed in the preferential communication unit, the preferential communication unit notifies the non-preferential communication unit that the data transfer is being performed, and when the non-preferential communication unit is being notified that the data transfer is being performed from the preferential communication unit, the non-preferential communication unit puts the data transfer in the non-preferential communication unit on hold.
Abstract:
Excellent durability can be achieved by reducing thermal influences of the excessive load from the engine side for a clutch roller (13) in a unidirectional rotation clutch system that is helical-splined to a drive shaft that rotates in response to a driving force of a motor and structured such that the motor driving force can be transmitted while an engine driving force cannot be transmitted when an engine stars, wherein a compound film composed of an external mixed phase and an internal diffused phase is formed on the clutch roller (13) subjected to nitriding by tufftriding with nitrogen being penetrating and diffusing.
Abstract:
A rotation angle detection apparatus has angle detection means that has detection circuits each including a detection element part having a coil and a resistor and that also has inductance changing means that changes the inductance of the coil in accordance with the rotation of a rotation measurement target. The rotation angle detection apparatus further has reference pulse voltage generating means for causing the detection circuits to generate output signals; and calculating means for calculating the output signals of the detection circuits. The calculating means obtains an integral by integrating, for a predetermined time, a transient output voltage occurring when a reference pulse voltage generated by the reference pulse voltage generating means is input to the detection circuits. The calculating means then detects, based on the integral, a rotation angle of the rotation measurement target, whereby the number of components of the rotation angle detection apparatus can be reduced and error factors of the output signal of the detection circuits can be reduced. As a result, the logic circuits and amplifier circuits can be simplified and hence the cost of the rotation angle detection apparatus can be reduced.
Abstract:
[PROBLEMS] To provide a starter motor enabling the easy and accurate aligning of holes when an idle shaft is mounted.[MEANS FOR SOLVING THE PROBLEMS] The screw mounting hole (106) and a female screw part (105) are formed in the bearing part (98) of a gear cover (24) and the screw insertion hole (104) is formed in the idle shaft (89). The idle shaft (89) is fixed to the gear cover (24) by inserting a fixing screw (107) through the screw mounting hole (106) and screwing it into the female screw part (105) through the screw insertion hole (104). A positioning groove (108) in a predetermined position relation with the screw insertion hole (104) is formed in the end face of the idle shaft (89). When the positioning groove (108) is disposed perpendicularly to an engine mounting surface (111) and the idle shaft (89) is fitted to the gear cover (24), the screw mounting hole (106) is opposed to the screw insertion hole (104) and, when the fixing screw (107) is fitted, the confirmation of hole positions and the aligning of holes can be eliminated.
