A safety cabinet for storing flammable liquids is provided with a flame arresting vent. The flame arresting vent or flame arrestor allows flammable vapors inside the cabinet to leave the cabinet's interior but prevents flame from flowing into the cabinet's interior from outside the cabinet.

Oil filter attaching structure for vehicle-mounted internal combustion engine

In an oil filter attaching structure for a vehicle-mounted internal combustion engine, an oil filter of the engine is installed in a filter case integrally formed with a crankcase cover of a crankcase. The crankcase cover is mounted on a side surface of the crankcase so as to cover an end of a crankshaft supported by the crankcase to extend in vehicle widthwise directions. An internal combustion engine accessory and a transmission clutch device are disposed inside of the crankcase cover in respective positions forward and rearward of the crankshaft. The oil filter and an oil supply port are disposed inside of the crankcase cover in respective positions upward and downward of the crankshaft. The oil filter attaching structure efficiently utilizes the space for making itself smaller in size and for better maintainability.
