Abstract:
An automobile multiplex communication system has a plurality of control units mounted on an automobile body and having respective circuits which are connected to communication signal lines through respective connectors for multiplex communications between the control units. Shield wires which cover the communication signal lines between the control units are electrically separate from the connectors and connected to ground. The shield wires have respective ends grounded to a conductor of the automobile body outside of the control units or grounded to conductor housings of the control units.
Abstract:
A data transmission system for a vehicle includes a plurality of control systems installed on the vehicle, and a network bus connecting the plurality of control systems with each other for circulating a transmission right through the plurality of control systems to thereby perform transmission of a message between the plurality of control systems. According to a first aspect, each of the control systems starts transmitting data when it is detected that the transmission right is not generated or lost from the system, and continues transmitting the data when no collision of data transmitted from the present control system with data transmitted from the rest of the plurality of control systems, or when by mediation for avoiding the collision is detected, it is determined to continue data transmission. According to another aspect, the maximum number of times of retransmission to be permitted is determined according to a type of failure in transmission identified, and the retransmission is performed so long as the number times of retransmission of the data does not exceed the maximum number of times of retransmission to be permitted. According to a still another aspect, the message comprises a first response field for receiving a first acknowledging response output from a control system having received the transmission right, and a second response field for receiving a second acknowledging response output from a control system having received data.
Abstract:
A double-bearing reel which is readily disassembled and reassembled. The double-bearing reel is provided with a spool rotatably supported between side plates, the spool being rotatably geared to take-up driving mechanisms. A level winder unit is provided for guiding and winding a fishing line onto the spool in parallel. The level winder unit includes a worm shaft rotatably geared to the take-up driving mechanisms of the spool, a guide tube embracing the worm shaft and having a slit, and a fishing line guide reciprocating along the slit of the guide tube as the worm shaft rotates. A removal preventive member is provided for preventing the level winder unit from slipping off in cooperation with the side plates when the level winder unit is detachably installed in the mating openings formed in the respective side plates.
Abstract:
The present disclosure concerns a simple structure for a fly type fishing reel to prevent the occurrence of noise caused by axial backlash between a shaft and a spool. A spool is rotatably supported on a shaft through at least one bearing, and a peripheral groove is formed on a fore end portion of the shaft. A cap is fixed to a center of the spool with a screw. An engaging knob plate to detachably engage the spool with the shaft is provided between the cap and the spool. A concave portion is formed approximately at a center of the reverse side of the cap for accommodating the fore end portion of the shaft, and a floating absorption member is inserted into and fixed in the concave portion. The floating absorption member may be made of felt, a resilient laminated member of rubber on which a metallic plate and a synthetic resin plate are stacked, or a leaf spring.
Abstract:
A drag mechanism for a fishing reel having a spool shaft supported at both the ends thereof. The drag mechanism employs rolling members as drag members so that the durability of the mechanism is enhanced, and the dragging function thereof is kept stable and good for a long time even under severe conditions under which sea water, sand or the like is likely to cling to the mechanism. One of drag member holders is secured to the spool of the reel so as to be rotated together with the spool. The other of the holders is secured to the spool shaft so as to be rotated together therewith. The tapered outside circumferential surface of one of the holders faces the tapered inside circumferential surface of the other of them. The rolling members are fitted in between the tapered surfaces. The drag mechanism can be used to drag the reverse rotation of the spool by frictional resistances to the rolling and sliding of the rolling members.
