Abstract: A rotational angle sensor (43) and a hydraulic pressure control valve (14) are
disposed such that a detecting end surface (43a) of the rotational angle sensor (43)
disposed close to a sensor rotor (42) attached to an exhaust camshaft (5) is at least
partly located in a spray area (S) of return oil discharged through a drain hole (3e)
formed at a cam cap (3), which flows down through a lower drain port of the hydraulic
pressure control valve (14) attached on the cam cap (3) from a variable valve timing
mechanism. Further, the detecting end surface (43a) is located forward in the
rotational direction, shown as the arrow a, of the exhaust camshaft (5) so that the
return oil can be positively carried toward the detecting end surface (43a) by the rotation
of the sensor rotor (42). Accordingly, this can maintain properly detecting accuracy
of the rotational sensor disposed close to the camshaft.

Abstract: An evaporation apparatus for solvent fuel has an extra fuel reservoir
installed outside of an evaporation tank, and a fuel level controller for
controlling the amount of fuel in the evaporation tank so as to maintain the
concentration of gaseous fuel in the evaporation tank in a preferable state for
stable combustion. The fuel level controller is composed of a float bowl and a
gate switch, the on/off of the latter is controlled by the position of the former
which in turn controls the amount of fuel contained in the evaporation tank. A
heating strip installed outside of the evaporation tank is connected with a
temperature controller having a temperature gage to control the inner
temperature of the evaporation tank stably at a constant value. This apparatus
has only to heat a small amount of fuel in a short heating time so that the
temperature can be easily controlled and the quality of the fuel is upgraded by
keeping the concentration of gaseous fuel stably.

Abstract: An industrial human-machine interface device that permits speech-controlled
navigation through a menu using a speech-recognition processor. The speech-recognition
processor is coupled to a microcontroller and a display. The microcontroller
is interfaced with a power metering device which monitors a power signal in a circuit.
To obtain a reading of a characteristic of the power signal, the operator speaks a spoken
keyword into a microphone of the human-machine interface device. The speech-recognition
processor converts the keyword into an identification word which is
outputted by the processor to the microcontroller. The microcontroller polls the output of
the processor, and upon detection of an identification word, executes a function
associated therewith. Menu navigation among consecutive or nonconsecutive menu
levels is performed by speaking one or more predetermined keywords. The speech-recognition
processor can recognize the keywords independent of the speaker or may be
trained for speaker-dependent recognition.
