Abstract: The present invention is an improved secure coupling for vehicle brake actuator units
that allows for a stronger and more efficient units having the same or smaller overall profile. The
coupling is used between the housing cup of either a service brake actuator (31) or an emergency brake
actuator (32), or both, and a corresponding adaptor (35) where the housing cup(s) and adaptor are made of
dissimilar metals. In the coupling, the cylindrical wall of the housing cup is substantially vertical, and
the corresponding annular edges of the adaptor cup are provided with a uniquely shaped engagement
structure. This structure allows the edges of the elastomeric diaphragm (40) deployed in the actuator to
extend away from the coupling at a substantially vertical angle, making available more surface area of
the diaphragm to press against a pressure-transmitting plate (23) inside. This allows the brake actuator unit
to transmit more force, and/or to employ a stronger emergency brake spring (27), without increasing the
size of the unit.

Abstract: To obtain an image signal in which the distance to a target
can be recognized, an infrared imaging apparatus 47 comprises an
infrared irradiation unit 48 for radiating infrared radiation in
an attenuation wavelength range in which the infrared radiation
is attenuated according to the transmitted distance and an infrared
imaging unit 49 for detecting infrared radiation emitted from the
target and infrared radiation reflected by the target, and outputting
an image signal. When the infrared irradiation unit 48 irradiates
infrared in an attenuation wavelength range, that is, an absorption
wavelength range wherein the transmittance in the air is small and
the absorption in the air is high, the intensity of the reflected
light from the target varies according to the distance to the target.
The infrared imaging unit 49 detects the reflected light from the
target which is attenuated depending on the distance in addition
to and superposed to the infrared radiation emitted from the target.
In this manner, an image signal in which the infrared components
are superposed, that is, an image signal in which the distance to
the target can be recognized, can be output.

Abstract: A misfire detecting device for detecting a misfiring state of
an engine (11). A memory means (22) stores misfire-frequency
data (cnt, n) relating to a frequency of occurrence of a misfire of
the engine, and a control means (20) determines, on the basis of
the misfire-frequency data, whether the misfiring state of the
engine has occurred. The control means (20) initiates a misfire
detecting operation of detecting an occurrence of the misfire of the
engine when a predetermined first condition is satisfied, and
initializes the misfire-frequency data stored in the memory means
(22) when a predetermined second condition is satisfied. The
first condition indicates that the engine (11) has entered into its
firing state by cranking of the engine for starting thereof, while
the second condition indicates that the engine has failed to enter
into its firing state by the cranking. The misfire detecting device
permits accurate detection of the misfiring state of the engine (11),
irrespective of repeated cranking operations of the engine due to
its repeated firing failures.

assemblies (104- 107) and sufficient energy for activation. A plurality of bandpass
filter/ignitor assemblies are connected in parallel in the system. The controller (116)
