An outer inner-toothed gear is loosely mounted in a casing. Several coupling arc parts of the outer inner-toothed gear are fitted to coupling projections of the casing with clearances defined therebetween. The outer inner-toothed gear displaces in the radial direction. Radial displacements reduce the noise generation. The outer inner-toothed gear can deform in angular directions. Angular deformati...

PURPOSE: To constantly obtain the initial length of a shock absorber regardless of the initial compression of a spring, and to restrict the excessive compression of the spring by the method wherein in the case of strong energization, the rear ward motion of the whole shock absorber is converted to the front ward motion of the nut of adjusting the harness, and the additional compression of the spri...

PURPOSE: To obtain a colored appearance different from that of the other surface by melt mixing a predetermined particle forming raw material and an excess polyester material, regulating a cast composition, quenching to cast it to a film-like state, and orienting it, thereby forming one surface as a matte surface. CONSTITUTION: A particle forming raw material is formed from a particle forming poly...

A binding for retaining a boot on a ski. The binding is provided with a jaw for retaining one end of a boot against the ski, and a support on which the jaw is mounted. The support itself is connected to two arms mounted on the ski. These two arms are separated by a distance less than the width of a sole of the boot which the binding retains on the ski.
