Publication number: 20120069238Abstract: A rotation body having an optical member is stored in an optical capsule that is filled with a liquid that is an anti-freeze solution. A magnetic rotation driver rotates the rotation body by applying a magnetic force in a rotation direction to a first magnetizer provided to the rotation body, and heats the liquid. Specifically, the stator core that configures the magnetic rotation driver is formed so that a surface opposing the first magnetizer fits along a curved surface of an outer surface of the optical capsule. The opposing surface is applied with a silicon grease and then firmly attached to the optical capsule. Thus, the entire opposing surface of the stator core acts as a thermal conduction path to more efficiently heat the liquid, thereby making it possible to stably rotate the rotation body even in a cold environment.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 14, 2011Publication date: March 22, 2012Applicant: PANASONIC CORPORATIONInventors: Yuuji TOYOMURA, Seiji URANO

Publication number: 20110291966Abstract: According to the present invention, a touch screen device includes a first electrode having a plurality of first conductor lines, inclined at a predetermined angle in clockwise and counterclockwise directions with respect to a first direction and provided at a predetermined interval to form a grid-shaped pattern; and a second electrode having a plurality of second conductor lines, inclined at the predetermined angle in clockwise and counterclockwise directions with respect to a second direction, the second direction perpendicular to the first direction and provided at the predetermined interval to form a grid-shaped pattern. The first electrode and the second electrode are superimposed to form a pattern of squares as basic shapes, and the predetermined angle is greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees. By superimposing the first electrode and the second electrode, a pattern of two different squares as basic shapes is formed due to interaction of the first electrode and the second electrode.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 25, 2011Publication date: December 1, 2011Applicant: PANASONIC CORPORATIONInventors: Shigeyuki TAKAO, Seiji URANO, Akinori OSADA, Shinichi KITAMURA

Publication number: 20110279408Abstract: The size of a pointing object is determined based on a detection result of a touch operation with a pointing object, and the number of electrodes in a group is switched according to the size of the pointing object. In particular, the size of the pointing object is categorized into three groups based on the size of an adult's finger, a child's finger, and a stylus, and the number of electrodes in a group is set to three levels. The number of electrodes in a group varies according to powers of two, such as two, four, and eight.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 13, 2011Publication date: November 17, 2011Applicant: PANASONIC CORPORATIONInventors: Seiji URANO, Shigeyuki TAKAO, Shinichi KITAMURA, Satoru MIYANISHI
