Patents by Inventor Takahisa Yashiro

Takahisa Yashiro 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: 11118670
    Abstract: A vehicle cooling system comprises an oil circulation circuit in which a cooling oil is circulated by an electric oil pump to cool a predetermined cooling target with the cooling oil; an oil temperature sensor detecting an oil temperature that is a temperature of the cooling oil; and a control device including a cooling control portion outputting a rotation command for operating the electric oil pump so as to cool the cooling target. The control device includes a pump abnormality determination portion outputting the rotation command to the electric oil pump to determine a presence/absence of abnormality based on a rotation state of the electric oil pump when an operation stop time of the vehicle is longer than a predefined determination permission time and an oil temperature detection value detected by the oil temperature sensor is higher than a predefined determination permission temperature.

  • Patent number: 8653779
    Abstract: A rotating electrical-machine control system is provided with: a rotating electrical-machine comprising a rotor further comprising permanent magnets that are divided into a dividing-number of sections; an inverter circuit that drives the rotating electrical-machine by PWM control, using a carrier wave having a carrier frequency; a storage unit that has stored therein a relationship file that indicates the relationship between the dividing-number of the magnets, the magnet temperature, and the carrier frequency; and a control apparatus.

  • Patent number: 8427029
    Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a rotor shaft capable of sufficiently securing a fastening strength between an inner shaft and an outer shaft, obtaining an excellent anti-rotation torque, and reducing a weight of the rotor shaft. A rotor shaft is divided into an inner shaft and an outer shaft. The inner shaft includes a tip end portion, a rear end portion, and a thick portion. The thick portion connects the tip end portion 41 and the rear end portion with each other in the radial direction, and has the same inner diameter as that of the tip end portion and the same outer diameter as that of the rear end portion. The outer shaft includes an inner cylindrical portion, a magnetic body-mounting outer cylindrical portion, and a flange that connects the inner cylindrical portion and the magnetic body-mounting outer cylindrical portion with each other.
