Patent CA-2829745-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MURAYAMA KAZUAKI
IPC: B60T8/17
Filed: 2012-03-09
Abstract: A vehicular hydraulic-pressure-generation device (14) wherein a first bush (75) compressively deforms due to pressure from a simulator piston (67) that moves when hydraulic pressure produced when a brake pedal (12) is depressed is transmitted into a cylinder part (66). Said vehicular hydraulic-pressure-generation device thus creates artificial reaction-force characteristics with respect to the position of the brake pedal (12). The aforementioned first bush (75) has a third elastic modulus, which is smaller than a second elastic modulus, and is provided in parallel with a first return spring (68a). The compressive deformation of the first bush (75) occurs over a second region (l2) that overlaps a first region (l1) in which compressive deformation of the return spring (68a) primarily occurs. This makes the brake pedal move more smoothly, reducing the feeling of incongruity resulting from a V-shaped singularity in the reaction-force characteristics with respect to brake pedal position at the point where linear characteristics due to a first elastic modulus switch to linear characteristics due to the second elastic modulus.

Abstract: [Problem] In a non-aqueous patch containing lidocaine, the adhesive force of the preparation tends to lower with an increase in the content of lidocaine. To release an effective amount of lidocaine from a patch to the skin, it is a common practice to dissolve lidocaine using a solubilizing agent. However, an increase in the content of the solubilizing agent causes even more remarkable lowering of the adhesive force, which makes long-term adhesion impossible. [Solution] A non-aqueous patch, wherein a biaxially stretching extensible fabric having a strength under 50% extension in the long side direction of not more than 2000 g/50 mm is used as a support for a lidocaine-containing ointment, and an ointment base contains a solubilizing agent together with lidocaine and/or a reaction product thereof.
