Abstract: A fuel injector (100) that allows spray targeting and distribution of fuel to be
configured using non-angled or straight orifice (135) having an axis parallel to a longitudinal
axis of a valve subassembly. Metering orifices (142) are located about the longitudinal axis
and defining a first virtual circle greater than a second virtual circle (152) defined by a
projection of the sealing surface (134b) onto the metering disc (10) so that all of the metering
orifices (142) are disposed outside the second virtual circle (152). The projection of the sealing
surface (134a) converges at a virtual apex disposed within the metering disc (10). At least one
channel (146) extends between a first end and second end. The first end is disposed at a first
radius (D1) from the longitudinal axis and spaced at a first distance (h1) from the metering disc (10).
The second end is disposed at a second radius (D2) with respect to the longitudinal axis and
spaced at a second distance (h2) from the metering disc (10) such that a product of the first
radius (D1) and the first distance (h1) is approximately equal to a product of the second radius (D2)
and the second distance (h2). Methods of controlling spray distribution and targeting are
also provided.

Abstract: A gas concentration measuring apparatus which has a gas
sensor designed to measure, for example, the concentrations of O 2 
and HOx contained in exhaust emissions of an automotive engine is
provided. The apparatus includes a signal processing circuit which
converts a current signal outputted from the gas sensor as a
function of the concentration of either of O 2  and HOx into a voltage
signal. The gas sensor and the signal processing circuit are
connected electrically through a conductor. The conductor has a
length which is determined as a function of a level of the current
signal outputted from the gas sensor. The weaker the level of the
current signal is, the shorter the length of the conductor. This
minimizes addition of electrical noises to the current signal
outputted from the gas sensor.

Abstract: In the invention, a differential mechanism 172 is arranged below an infinitely variable transmission
78 and a reduction gear mechanism 238, front fitting parts 71a, 72a and rear fitting parts 71b, 72b,
for fitting suspension arms to a vehicle frame are arranged to the front and rear of
the differential mechanism 172. 
     Even though the left and right suspension arms swing up and down, or a transmission and a
reduction gear mechanism attached on a vehicle frame swing left and right with respect to the
suspension arms, there is no interference of the transmission and the reduction gear mechanism with the
suspension arms due to a space at the front and the rear of a differential mechanism, so that the vehicle
frame can swing left and right and it is also possible to easily constitute a vehicle having an independent
suspension.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling motion through
consecutive linear spans that define a comer in a desired motion path,
such as a motion path in a machine tool system for example, is disclosed.
In one embodiment, a plurality of data points that define a desired
motion path is provided, and the plurality of data points define a plurality

spans define a comer having an angle within a predetermined range, and
if so, a non-linear path is determined which connects to the two
consecutive linear spans with continuity in curvature. An actuator is then
controlled according to the non-linear path.

Abstract: The invention seeks to provide an electronic circuit, an electronic device and an
electronic apparatus, which are capable of forming a simple circuit for
supplying data signals to an electro-optical pixel element of a display.
A first buffer circuit (30) is formed of second, third and sixth transistors (Tr2,Tr3,Tr6)
and a first capacitor (C1). A second buffer circuit (40) is formed of fourth, fifth and seventh
transistors (Tr4,Tr5,Tr7) and a second capacitor (C2). The drain of the second
transistor (Tr2) of the first buffer circuit (30) and the drain of the fourth transistor (Tr4) of

drain of the sixth transistor (Tr6) of the first buffer circuit (30) is connected to the drain of
the seventh transistor (Tr7) of the second buffer circuit (40) through an analog output
terminal (Po). Thus when one of the first and second buffer circuits
performs output to a data line (Po), the other of the two buffers receive
an input signal (Pi).

Abstract: An overload clutch for a rotary hammer is described. An external surface of a spindle 4 is formed with a series of tapering grooves 104 which become narrower in a direction moving towards the forward end of the spindle 4. A slider sleeve 41 is provided with splines 106 which also taper in a direction towards the forward end of the slider sleeve 41. In this way, the slider sleeve 41 is prevented from rotating relative to the spindle 4, but can slide axially to a limited extent relative thereto. A rearward end of the slider sleeve 41 is provided with a recess 108 having an inclined internal surface for accommodating elastomeric O-ring 42. When the torque required to rotationally drive the spindle 4 is below a predetermined threshold, a spring 56 biases the slider sleeve 41 into engagement with elastomeric O-ring 42, and a spring 47 biases sets of cooperating teeth on a spindle drive gear 40 and slider sleeve 41 into engagement with each other. With these sets of cooperating teeth engaged, the spindle drive gear 40 rotationally drives the slider sleeve 41 via the interlocking facing teeth. As a result, the slider sleeve 41 rotationally drives the spindle 4 by means of cooperation between the splines 106 on the slider sleeve 41 and the grooves 104 on the sleeve 4. When the torque required to rotationally drive the spindle 4 exceeds the predetermined torque threshold, however, inclined surfaces of the mutually engaging teeth on the spindle drive gear 40 and slider sleeve 41 slide over each other, as a result of which the drive gear 40 slides forwardly along the slider sleeve 41 against the action of spring 47. The spindle drive gear 40 can then rotate relative to the slider sleeve 41 and the cooperating sets of teeth ratchet over each other, preventing the rotary drive from the spindle drive gear 40 being transmitted to the spindle 4. The ratcheting of the sets of teeth also makes a noise which alerts the user of the hammer to the fact that the overload clutch arrangement is slipping.

Abstract: The present invention provides method and apparatus for automatically correcting aberrations in a charged-particle beam. The method and apparatus permit a human operator to automatically and easily correct aberrations in the beam unconsciously of a complex procedure of aberration correction. The apparatus has a memory for storing image data obtained by scanning a specimen with the beam. A four-side region-blurring device reads the image data from the memory and blurs regions close to the four sides of an image represented by the image data. A probe profile extractor extracts the probe profile from the image that has been blurred as mentioned above. A line profile extractor extracts line profiles from the extracted probe profile. A correction amount-calculating unit performs extraction of amounts of features, calculations of aberrations, judgment on corrections of the aberrations, and setting of an amount of feedback about the extracted line profiles. A correcting unit corrects the aberration corrector based on the set amount of feedback.
