Publication number: 20230303933Abstract: The present invention provides pitch for manufacturing carbon materials, the pitch having a high fixed carbon content and low viscosity and being obtained by using a petroleum-based heavy oil as a material. Pitch is produced by a method comprising: a step for preparing a material oil containing a petroleum-based heavy oil and an indene compound represented by general formula (1) (step 1); a step for thermally treating the material oil (step 2); and a step for distilling the thermally treated product and obtaining pitch as a high-boiling-point component (step 3).Type: ApplicationFiled: July 30, 2021Publication date: September 28, 2023Applicant: RESONAC CORPORATIONInventors: Yutaro ISHIKAWA, Nobuhiro NISHI, Keisuke OTA

Patent number: 8978565Abstract: Disclosed is a two-needle sewing machine that improves strength in a convex curve part by bringing a pair of stitches close together when sewing an item. A two-needle sewing machine includes a bed part; a column part; an arm part; a needle shaft that is disposed on the leading part of the arm part; two sewing needles that are attached to the needle shaft; two horizontal hooks that catch the respective needle thread loops of the two sewing needles; and a conveyor member that conveys a material to be sewn in a direction approximately orthogonal to the bed part. On the two-needle sewing machine, the sewing needle, which is positioned in a location distant from the column part, is disposed closer to the conveyance side of the material to be sewn than the sewing needle that is positioned in a location closer to the column part.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2010Date of Patent: March 17, 2015Assignees: Midori Anzen Hougi Co., Ltd., Midori Anzen Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hideo Asao, Nobuhiro Nishi

Patent number: 8443745Abstract: To provide a seam of attractive appearance in which tightening force is increased and raveling are prevented drastically. A seam (1) is formed by two needles (11, 12) juxtaposed in the direction at substantially right angles to the sewing direction (T), and consists of a chain seam (10) formed by a needle thread (12) passed through one needle (11), and a lock seam (20) formed by a needle thread (22) passed through the other needle (21). The loop (13) of a needle thread forming the chain seam (10) is passed through the loop (23) of a needle thread forming the lock seam (20) before tightening of stitch is performed, and a loop of the needle thread forming the chain seam located on a downstream side in the sewing direction is passed through the loop of the needle thread forming the upstream chain seam.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2008Date of Patent: May 21, 2013Assignee: Hougi CorporationInventors: Hideo Asao, Nobuhiro Nishi

Patent number: 5522330Abstract: A drive device for a sewing machine which varies the speed of the auxiliary motor. In a sewing machine drive device, the rotation of a clutch motor is transmitted through a pulley and an endless belt to the spindle of the sewing machine. The rotation of an auxiliary motor is transmitted through a driving sprocket, a timing belt and a driven sprocket and through the pulley to the spindle of the sewing machine. The drive device includes rotation varying means which varies the rotation of the auxiliary motor in response to the variation in diameter of the driving pulley of the clutch motor.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 1994Date of Patent: June 4, 1996Assignee: Juki CorporationInventors: Nobuhiro Nishi, Toshiaki Sunada, Tadashi Kato, Takashi Nishikawa, Yoshikatsu Hattori
