Publication number: 20230119388Abstract: In the coil component, the external terminal and the metal magnetic powder-containing resin constituting the element body are not in direct contact with each other, and thus high ESD resistance is obtained. That is, even when a high transient voltage is applied between the pair of external terminals, insulation breakdown is less likely to occur, and an improvement in breakdown voltage with respect to the transient voltage can be realized.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 12, 2022Publication date: April 20, 2023Applicant: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Shota OTSUKA, Takashi KUDO, Kyohei TONOYAMA, Taiji MATSUI, Ken SATOH, Miyuki ASAI

Patent number: 7843315Abstract: Data falsification or the like is prevented and security is enhanced in an IC tag. The IC tag consists of three portions: separable portions A1 and A2, and a non-separable portion B (tag main body). The portions A1, A2, and B include IC1, IC2, and IC3, and antenna 1, antenna 2, and antenna 3, respectively, the antennas being an interface between the tag and the outside (a reader/writer device for the exchange of data with the tag). IC1 (10) and IC2 (20) are connected by a signal line L1 for signal transmission between IC1 (10) and IC2 (20). IC2 (20) and IC3 (30) are connected by a signal line L2 for signal transmission between IC2 (20) and IC3 (30). Upon separation of A1 from the tag main body, the signal line L1 is also severed. Similarly, upon separation of A2 from the tag main body, the signal line L2 is severed.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2005Date of Patent: November 30, 2010Assignee: Sharp Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Ken Satoh, Hisao Kumai, Touru Sugayama, Junji Hiraide, Haruo Hinode

Patent number: 7812706Abstract: A tag (1) can be split into a tag (A(1-a)), a tag (B(1-b)), and a tag (C(1-c)). In the tag (A), a memory portion (A31) is included. In the tag (B), a memory portion (B32) is included. In the tag (C), a memory portion (C33), an input/output interface portion (34), and a control portion (35) are provided. The input/output interface portion (34) forms an interface for exchanging data with an external reader/writer device (not shown). The control portion (35) receives a request inputted thereto from the input/output interface portion (34) and controls the function of the tag. A split line 36 is provided between the tags (A) and (B) to allow detachment between the two tags therealong. A split line 37 is provided between the tags (B) and (C) to allow detachment between the two tags therealong. The arrangement makes it difficult to falsify data in the tag and enables an easier operation.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2004Date of Patent: October 12, 2010Assignee: Sharp Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yoshihiro Suzuki, Shigetaka Noguchi, Ken Satoh

Patent number: 4975775Abstract: A tuner for use in two systems utilizes a determining circuit to determine whether or not a baseband signal, after demodulation includes a sound carrier. If a sound carrier is present, the determining circuit determines that the received television signal is a television signal in the NTSC system, if the carrier signal is not present, a television signal in the MUSE system. When the received television signal is a television signal in the NTSC system, switches are activated such that the baseband signal is applied to a signal processing circuit for video and a signal processing circuit compatible with the NTSC system. An averaging AFC is selected by these switches. On the other hand, when the received television is a television signal in the MUSE system, switches are activated such that the baseband signal is applied to a MUSE decoder and a keyed AFC is selected.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 1988Date of Patent: December 4, 1990Assignee: Sharp Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Ken Satoh

Patent number: 4399355Abstract: A display apparatus for tape running positions is provided with a first pulse generator (36) for generating m first pulses for each revolution of a supply reel (12) in a tape transport, a second pulse generator (38) for generating n second pulses for each revolution of a take-up reel (14), and a counter (44 to 48) for counting the number of the first pulses during one period of the second pulse. The ratio of count value change in the counter for a time period from the start to the end of the tape running is expanded to the square of the change ratio of rotational speed of the reel from the beginning to the end of the tape winding. A counting range of the counter at this time is proportional to m/n.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 1980Date of Patent: August 16, 1983Assignee: Olympus Optical Co., Ltd.Inventors: Ken Satoh, Kenzi Furuta

Patent number: 4372504Abstract: This invention is for a tape cassette having window for insertion of a magnetic head and a pinch roller formed extending from a peripheral wall of the housing of the tape cassette to one of the holding plates which holds a pair of reel hubs in place. The device according to this invention has a shutter member, and a resilient metal wire housed in the housing. The shutter member has projections which are to be engaged with an engaging member provided on a tape cassette holder member of the magnetic tape transport apparatus. The metal wire urges the shutter member to close a portion of the window formed in the holding plate. When the cassette is loaded into the loading member, the projections engage with the engaging member and the shutter member releases the closing state of the holding plate forming portion of the window against an urging force of the wire.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 1980Date of Patent: February 8, 1983Assignee: Olympus Optical Co., Ltd.Inventors: Tsutomu Shibata, Kenji Kimura, Ken Satoh, Sinichi Saitou, Toshikazu Kato, Seizo Watanabe, Ken Ohshima

Patent number: 4363042Abstract: In a magnetic tape-automatic tracking method, at least one of the positions of the upper and lower edges of a magnetic tape is detected by an assembly of a tape edge position sensor and light-emitting diode. Any displacement of the running magnetic tape from its standard vertical position is determined from detected data. A generally vertical tape edge position-compensating post which applies a tensile force to the magnetic tape in contact therewith is rotated in a vertical plane by a reversible motor in accordance with the detected extent of the displacement of the running magnetic tape from its standard vertical position. The magnitude of a tensile force applied by the tape edge position-compensating post to the magnetic tape is varied, by the extent of the rotation of the reversible motor. As a result, the magnetic tape is vertically moved in the desired direction to regain its standard vertical position.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 1980Date of Patent: December 7, 1982Assignee: Olympus Optical Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kenji Kimura, Sinichi Saitou, Toyoo Nishiyama, Toshikazu Kato, Misao Shimoda, Seizo Watanabe, Ken Satoh, Tutomu Shibata
