Publication number: 20240149324Abstract: A technique disclosed herein relates to a method for producing a plate piece including a partial outline and a remaining outline continuous from the partial outline. The method disclosed herein may comprise removing an outer region external to the partial outline from a plate workpiece by a first punch (first punching process); and punching out an inner region internal to the remaining outline by a second punch from the plate workpiece in which the outer region has been removed while applying a block to a side surface of the plate workpiece along the partial outline (second punching process). In the second punching process, by applying the block to the side surface of the already-formed partial outline, deformation of the partial outline can be suppressed when the inner region internal to the remaining outline is punched out by the second punch.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 23, 2023Publication date: May 9, 2024Applicant: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Takashi TAKAHASHI, Hokuto SUZUKI, Yuma IWAMOTO

Patent number: 11973535Abstract: A wavelength monitoring circuit obtains a light output proportional to only an input optical signal, independent of wavelength, by adding a light split circuit to the configuration in the related art, or changing the light split circuit to a light trifurcation circuit. In addition, wavelength monitoring with high accuracy is possible while improving the resistance to noise. The extraction of the light output proportional to only the input optical signal is performed by a light split circuit for input light at the top stage of the wavelength monitoring circuit or a light split circuit for interference in a stage in the middle of the circuit. The changed light split circuit causes the MZI included in the wavelength monitoring circuit to operate in a state of losing the balance of the configuration or the optical signal level, and increases the signal level near the bottom portion of the transmission characteristics.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2020Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATIONInventors: Osamu Moriwaki, Manabu Oguma, Kenya Suzuki, Takashi Go, Yuichiro Ikuma
