Publication number: 20240079224Abstract: An ion transport optical system includes N rod electrodes forming an N-pole arrangement externally tangent to a circle of diameter A1 at an ion-entrance end, where N is an even number not smaller than six. Four electrodes form a quadrupole arrangement externally tangent to a circle of diameter A2 at an ion-exit end, where A2<A1. At least two of them are arranged obliquely to the central axis of the N-pole or quadrupole arrangement. At least four of the N electrodes are shaped such that the cross-sectional radius of their arc-shaped portion facing the central axis at the ion-exit end is smaller than that at the ion-entrance end. A voltage generator applies a DC voltage to the four electrodes and another DC voltage, which differs from the first one, to the N?4 remaining electrodes, in addition to RF voltages of opposite phases alternately applied to the N electrodes.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Applicant: SHIMADZU CORPORATIONInventors: Shinichiro Okamura, Masaru Nishiguchi

Patent number: 10447930Abstract: A monitoring camera sets ON or OFF of swing correction in accordance with setting information about whether or not the swing correction of an image (that is, captured image) captured by an image sensor is performed, and corrects swing by cutting out a part of the captured image based on a swing detected value of a vibration sensor in a case where the swing correction is set ON. The monitoring camera outputs the captured image while maintaining a state thereof in a case where the swing correction is set OFF.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2019Date of Patent: October 15, 2019Assignee: PANASONIC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT CO., LTD.Inventors: Masamichi Ohara, Takamasa Yokoyama, Kazuki Yoshino, Yoshio Sakakibara, Yoichiro Yamagi, Hironori Kuribayashi, Yoshihito Urashima, Jyouji Wada, Shinichiro Okamura
