Ryutaro KAWAGUCHI has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10840759
    Abstract: In a rotary electric machine, a rotor including a rotor shaft and a rotor main body provided to the rotor shaft. A baffle plate, which is fixed at a plurality of positions to an end portion of the rotor main body in the axial direction, and is configured to define an airflow passage for cooling gas. Further, the baffle plate is segmented into a plurality of baffle segments which are arrayed in a circumferential direction of the rotor. The baffle segments each include an overlapping portion which overlaps an adjacent baffle segment in an axial direction of the rotor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 5, 2017
    Date of Patent: November 17, 2020
    Assignee: MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC CORPORATION
    Inventors: Kohei Samata, Takeshi Nakamura, Ryutaro Kawaguchi, Norihiko Hana, Nobuaki Muroki

  • Patent number: 9893600
    Abstract: Insulating objects arranged in parallel between adjacent element wire conductors of a plurality of the element wire conductors in a circumferential direction of the rotating electrical machine on each of both sides interposing a dislocating portion of the element wire conductor and linearly extending along the adjacent element wire conductors; a storage space formed between the linear insulating objects arranged in parallel at each of the both sides interposing the dislocating portion; and a temperature detection sensor configured to detect a temperature of the element wire conductors and stored in the storage spaces at each of the both sides interposing the dislocating portion across both sides interposing the dislocating portion are provided, wherein the hardness of the insulating objects is lower than the hardness of the element wire conductors, whereby the types of the rotating electrical machine to which the temperature detection sensor can be applied may be extensively increased.
