Patent number: 7766541Abstract: The invention relates to a method for detecting an abnormality of a temperature sensor. A plurality of temperature sensors are preliminarily grouped for each of predetermined attachment areas of a machine tool, and after a temperature of each part is measured in S1, the detected temperatures are classified in S2 for each of the grouped attachment areas, and then sorted in descending order in S3. Subsequently, a difference ?T between any closest two of the detected temperatures is obtained in S4, and then compared with a preset limit value ? in S5, when ?T exceeds the limit value ?, temperature sensors in a corresponding attachment area are determined abnormal in S6, and an alarm is displayed.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2007Date of Patent: August 3, 2010Assignee: Okuma CorporationInventor: Reiji Sato

Patent number: 7676338Abstract: The invention enables an abnormality of a temperature sensor to be simply detected. In S1, a temperature measurement is performed with each temperature sensor, and measured signals are digitalized to obtain a temperature value. Then, in S2, a detection temperature Tb? equivalent to a detected temperature of a corresponding temperature sensor is calculated with use of an arithmetic expression and a characterization factor stored in a parameter storage device, and in S3, an absolute value ?T of a temperature difference between Ta and Tb? is obtained. Subsequently, in S4, the calculated absolute value ?T is compared with a limit value ?, and when ?T is larger than the limit value ?, Ta or Tb is determined to be abnormal and an alert is issued with an alarm or the like in S5, followed by issuance of a command to a correcting device in S6 not to change a correction amount set before the abnormality occurs.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2007Date of Patent: March 9, 2010Assignee: Okuma CorporationInventor: Reiji Sato

Patent number: 5405299Abstract: A toothed belt and belt-adapted pulley system provides a high-load capacity and increased durability by reducing stress concentrations on dedendum portions and further preventing localized bending of belt tensile cords. Smooth engagement of elastic teeth of a belt is possible due to minimization of interference between the elastic teeth upon engagement or disengagement with a pulley. Reduced vibration, low noise, and a reduction in skipping under high loads result from the inventive system. Each tooth of the belt has a peripheral length m.sub.0 and a dedendum portion with a length m.sub.1, where m.sub.1 /m.sub.0 is 0.1 or less. Each tooth of the pulley has a peripheral length n.sub.0 and a dedendum portion having a length n.sub.1, where n.sub.1 /n.sub.0 is 0.1 or less.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 1993Date of Patent: April 11, 1995Assignee: Bridgestone CorporationInventors: Takaharu Kubo, Reiji Sato, Takeshi Oba, Akira Nakaegawa, Yoshihide Fukahori
