Embodiments of the present invention may include beading for decorating a target member. The beading has a linear member, a leg portion and a colored portion. The linear member has a main portion formed of a light-transmitting material. The linear member has a first end and a second end opposite the first end on an outer periphery thereof. The leg portion extends from the first end of the linear member. The leg portion has a sewn portion that is sewn onto the target member by sewing thread. The colored portion is provided in the linear member or the leg portion. The colored portion has a smaller quantity of transmitting light than that of the main portion. The colored portion is situated and configured to suppress the visibility of the sewing thread when the linear member is seen from above the second end.

Beadings

A fixing unit includes: an attachment member attached to a seat body; an engaging member engaged with an opening provided to the seat body; and a string member connecting the attachment member and the engaging member, the string member being engaged with a cover. The engaging member includes: a body to which the string member is attached; a first contact portion provided to the body to be in contact with a first periphery of the opening; and an insert portion provided on the body at a position spaced apart from the first contact portion, the insert portion being inserted into the opening. The insert portion includes a first restricting portion to be in contact with a second periphery of the opening opposite the first periphery to restrict the insert portion from being detached from the opening.

Fixture unit and cover fixing method

A cover-material fixing clip includes: a chuck that pinches a locking hem formed on a back surface of a cover material; a hook that locks a wire provided in a groove of a cushion material; and a guide lever that is provided facing an opening of the hook. A proximal end of the hook is connected to a bottom of the chuck opposite to the cover material. The guide lever is connected to a side surface of the chuck.

Clip for fastening surface skin material

A small-sized motor operated valve is disclosed that has high output and high resolution by housing a reduction gear together with a rotor in a single can. A valve shafthaving a valve memberis inserted to a motor operated valve body. A rotoris disposed inside a canattached to the body, and inside the rotoris housed a reduction gear. The output of the rotor is input to a sun gearand transmitted to planetary gears. The planetary gearsare engaged both with the fixed gearand the output gear, and the output gearis driven at reduced speed by a large reduction ratio. The output of the output gearis transmitted via a driverto a screw shaft, where it is converted into a linear movement and transmitted to the valve shaft

Motor operated valve with reduction gear

The four-way selector valve relating to the invention basically comprises a motor which has a stator and a rotor, a case, and a main body including a main valve and a valve seat, both of which are arranged in a valve chest within the case. The valve seat has a suction pressure passage and a discharge pressure passage, which lead to a suction port of a compressor and a discharge port thereof, respectively, and two passage holes which lead to indoor and outdoor heat exchangers, respectively. The main valve has a connecting part which selectively leads to one of the suction pressure passage and the two passage holes, and a pressure equalization orifice which links the connecting part and the valve chest. A rotor sleeve, which comprises the rotor, is equipped with an auxiliary valve which opens or closes the pressure equalization orifice in order to transfer pressure, and an operating pin which moves the position of the main valve. The rotor of the motor rotates the auxiliary valve on the main valve and slides the main valve on the valve seat via the operating pin.
