Patent number: 8466573Abstract: A wind turbine generator system can regulate the rotational velocity of the wind turbine within an operation range even when the wind velocity suddenly changes and can perform continuous operation of the wind turbine. The wind turbine generator system includes a generator connected to the shaft of the wind turbine and a converter connected to the generator. When the rotational velocity of the wind turbine is within a predetermined range, power outputted from the generator is controlled so as to follow the instruction concerning the generator output given from the wind turbine to the converter. When the rotational velocity of the wind turbine is out of the predetermined range, the power outputted from the generator is controlled without following the instruction concerning generator output given from the wind turbine to the converter.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2012Date of Patent: June 18, 2013Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Akira Kikuchi, Masaya Ichinose, Motoo Futami, Mitsugu Matsutake, Kouichi Miyazaki

Patent number: 7692119Abstract: In the first buffering area provided between the inlet of the furnace and the heating chamber, the ambient gas is blown to the printed circuit board from the lower side of the carrier device, while the ambient gas is sucked in the upper side of the carrier device, thus the outside air is prevented from infiltrating and the ambient gas is prevented from flowing out. Furthermore, the flux is prevented from being attached to the printed circuit board, by installing the flux dropping prevention mechanism in the suction port of the ambient gas.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2006Date of Patent: April 6, 2010Assignee: Tamura FA System CorporationInventors: Motomu Shibamura, Kouichi Miyazaki, Motohiro Yamane
