Abstract: A valve operation controller for an internal combustion
engine is provided for optimally setting a valve opening timing
and a valve closing timing for an intake valve in accordance with
an operating state of the internal combustion engine to improve
the fuel efficiency and power of the internal combustion engine,
eliminate fuel stagnation in the intake valve and sticking of the
intake valve with its valve seat, and reduce the cost and weight.
The valve operation controller controls open/close operations of
exhaust valves (EV1, EV2) and first and second intake valves (IV1,
IV2) arranged in one cylinder (4). An electromagnetic valve
operating mechanism (5) electromagnetically opens/closes the
first intake valve (IV1). A cam type valve operating mechanism
(6) opens/closes the second intake valve (IV2) with an intake cam
(11) arranged on a cam shaft (10) driven in synchronism with
rotation of the internal combustion engine (3). The cam type valve
operating mechanism (6) can generate a cylinder flowage within a
combustion chamber of the cylinder (4). An ECU (2) controls
operations of the electromagnetic valve operating mechanism (5)

Abstract: A cordless vehicle wheel alignment sensor head with interchangeable batteries includes easy to replace rechargeable batteries, thus eliminating the need for a service call to replace the batteries and allows the operator to swap a nearly depleted battery set with a fully or partially charged battery set. The sensor head includes a battery compartment door which slides upwards without pivoting about or detaching from the sensor head, and allows the batteries to pop out and be replaced. The battery compartment door also includes at least one battery engaging protrusion which presses against the battery at a non-contacting end of the rechargeable battery when the battery compartment door is closed. Accordingly, with the battery compartment door closed, the battery is tightly held in place and pressed into a pair of retractable pins that result in electrically coupling the battery to the sensor circuitry.
