Publication number: 20210372868Abstract: Provided is a stress measurement device capable of easily grasping the behavior of a stress generation site in a sample. The stress measurement device is provided with a camera for imaging light emitted by a stress luminescent material, a controller for processing an image captured by the camera, and a display for displaying the image processed by the controller. The controller detects the stress generation site according to a luminescence distribution of the stress luminescent material for each of the plurality of time-series images captured by the camera and controls the display such that each stress generation site detected for each of the plurality of images is displayed on one image in a superimposed manner in mutually different display modes.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2021Publication date: December 2, 2021Inventors: Yusuke YOKOI, Momoyo YAMAKAWA, Naoya FUJIWARA, Kenta ADACHI, Hiroaki TSUSHIMA, Tomoki SASAYAMA

Publication number: 20210356400Abstract: A stress luminescence measurement device according to a first aspect is provided with a load application mechanism configured to deform a sample by applying a load to the sample, a light source configured to emit excitation light to a stress luminescent material 2 arranged on a surface of the sample, a camera configured to image luminescence of the stress luminescent material, and a controller configured to control the load application mechanism, the light source, and the camera. The controller acquires a deformation state of the sample at the imaging timing by the camera and stores the acquired deformation state of the sample in association with the image captured by the camera in a memory.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 11, 2021Publication date: November 18, 2021Inventors: Yusuke YOKOI, Momoyo YAMAKAWA, Naoya FUJIWARA, Hiroaki TSUSHIMA, Kenta ADACHI

Patent number: 11106178Abstract: In a microscopic observation unit (10), hologram data is acquired at each measurement position on a cell culture plate (13) while a light-source section (11) and other related sections are gradually moved by a moving section (15). Every time a set of data for one measurement position is acquired, a measurement monitoring image creator (24) creates a thumbnail image by reducing the size of a hologram image which is based on original data (two-dimensional distribution of light intensity). A display processor (25) pastes the create thumbnail image to progressively complete the hologram image of the entire plate to be displayed on a display unit (27). A measurement operator watches the hologram image during the execution of the measurement. When it has been concluded that the ongoing measurement is inappropriate, the operator presses a measurement stop button to immediately discontinue the measurement.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2017Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: SHIMADZU CORPORATIONInventors: Momoyo Yamakawa, Shuhei Yamamoto

Patent number: 10684263Abstract: A device including a chromatogram display section; a peak-specifying point detector automatically detecting a peak-beginning point on a displayed chromatogram; a peak-specifying point indicator allowing an operator to indicate, as the point in time of a peak-ending point, a point in time on a time axis of an orthogonal coordinate system; a peak-specifying-point candidate designator designating a point at which a straight line extending parallel to the intensity axis and passing through the point in time of the peak-ending point indicated by the peak-specifying point indicator intersects with the chromatogram and a point at which a straight line extending parallel to the time axis and passing through the peak-beginning point detected by the peak-specifying point detector intersects with the straight line extending parallel to the intensity axis and passing through the point in time of the peak-ending point; and a peak-specifying point selector allowing an operator to select either point.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2015Date of Patent: June 16, 2020Assignee: SHIMADZU CORPORATIONInventor: Momoyo Yamakawa

Publication number: 20200096940Abstract: In a microscopic observation unit (10), hologram data is acquired at each measurement position on a cell culture plate (13) while a light-source section (11) and other elated sections are gradually moved by a moving section (15). Every time a set of data for one measurement position is acquired, a measurement monitoring image creator (4) creates a thumbnail age by reducing the size of a hologram image which is based on original data (two-dimensional distribution of light intensity). A display processor (25) pastes the create thumbnail image to progressively complete the hologram image of the entire plate to be displayed on a display unit (27). A measurement operator watches the hologram image during the execution of the measurement. When it has been concluded that the ongoing measurement is inappropriate, the operator presses a measurement stop button to immediately discontinue the measurement.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 3, 2017Publication date: March 26, 2020Applicant: SHIMADZU CORPORATIONInventors: Momoyo YAMAKAWA, Shuhei YAMAMOTO

Publication number: 20190154644Abstract: A storage stores information of a peak start point, a peak end point, a peak top, and a boundary point and a boundary line between consecutive peaks of a chromatogram, as peak information. The selection processing unit selects the peak information or any peak included in the chromatogram based on the location of a touch gesture to the chromatogram displayed on a display monitor. This configuration contributes to preventing information different from information intended by an operator from being accidentally recognized when the operator makes a touch gesture to a touchscreen display monitor displaying the chromatogram. A correct input signal corresponding to the touch gesture on the touchscreen can thus be transmitted.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 4, 2016Publication date: May 23, 2019Applicant: Shimadzu CorporationInventors: Yuki KOMORI, Momoyo YAMAKAWA
