Publication number: 20140297110Abstract: An in-vehicle relay apparatus can restrict transmission of identification information with which a vehicle can be specified to the outside of the vehicle. A vehicle internal communication unit may communicate with at least one in-vehicle device installed in a vehicle, and a vehicle external communication unit may communicate with a vehicle external communication device disposed outside of the vehicle. A communication processing unit may add identification information to relay information that is transmitted to the vehicle external communication device. The identification information may regard a transmission source of relay information by which the vehicle external communication device determines the transmission source of the relay information. Additionally, the communication processing unit may transmit, using the vehicle external communication device, the relay information to the vehicle external communication device.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 27, 2014Publication date: October 2, 2014Applicants: AUTONETWORKS TECHNOLOGIES, LTD, SUMITOMO ELECTRIC INDUSTRIES, LTD., SUMITOMO WIRING SYSTEMS, LTD.Inventors: Tetsuya NODA, Hiroshi OKADA

Publication number: 20140238252Abstract: To provide a transfer apparatus that uniforms peeling characteristics and peeling characteristics in transfer processing and that enables a stabilized transfer result to be obtained, in a transfer apparatus for nipping a transfer film 46 and recording medium K with a transfer roller 33 and transfer platen 31 to form an image on the recording medium, preheating treatment of the recording medium K is performed before transfer processing. At this point, by determining a preheating amount corresponding to the temperature of the recording medium K, it is possible to obtain a stabilized transfer result in response to a change in transfer conditions due to a change in environmental temperature and a change in the transfer surface. Particularly, in the case of performing backside transfer subsequently to frontside transfer, since the temperature of the recording medium K is high, a preheating amount in backside transfer is made smaller than in frontside transfer.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 20, 2014Publication date: August 28, 2014Applicant: NISCA CORPORATIONInventors: Yuichi AIHARA, Tetsuya NODA

Publication number: 20140238254Abstract: To peel off a transfer film varying in easy-to-peel according to the temperature of a recording medium (temperature of an adhesion surface) with a suitable peeling tension and to suppress the occurrence of peeling residues, in a transfer apparatus for nipping a transfer film 46 and recording medium K with a transfer roller 33 and transfer platen 31 to form an image on the recording medium, the temperature of the card K is detected by detecting an environmental temperature outside the apparatus, and the peeling tension (transfer film wind torque) required for peeling off the transfer film 46 from the card K subjected to transfer is changed corresponding to the card temperature. Further, in the case of performing backside transfer subsequently to frontside transfer, since the card temperature is high, the peeling tension in backside transfer is set to be lower than the peeling tension in frontside transfer.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 20, 2014Publication date: August 28, 2014Applicant: NISCA CORPORATIONInventors: Yuichi AIHARA, Tetsuya NODA

Publication number: 20140139606Abstract: To perform preheating on a recording medium before transfer with an inexpensive configuration to reduce a transfer failure due to a change in temperature of a transfer film and further reduce thermal damage to the transfer film, in a transfer apparatus for nipping a transfer film and recording medium with a transfer roller and transfer platen, preheating treatment of the recording medium is performed by heat of the transfer roller before transfer processing. When the preheating treatment is performed using the transfer roller, the transfer film exists between the transport roller and the recording medium, and by shifting the position of the transfer film during the preheating treatment, it is possible to suppress thermal damage to the transfer film without applying heat of the transfer roller to only a part of the transfer film excessively.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2013Publication date: May 22, 2014Applicant: NISCA CORPORATIONInventors: Yohichi SAKAI, Tetsuya NODA, Akira TAKEI, Tatsuya ASAKAWA, Daisuke KANEOYA, Yuichi AIHARA

Patent number: 8116006Abstract: The light directed from a light source to a concave mirror and the light directed from a display device to an eyepiece optical system are intersected by each other in a layout. This allows the light source, the concave mirror, and the display device to be arranged in compactness adjacent to the eyepiece optical system without increasing the optical power of an illumination optical system. As the result, the apparatus can easily be minimized in the thickness or the overall size. A hologram optical element is provided where the relationship between the wavelength range ??1 at half of the diffraction efficiency of each of the three primary colors of the light in the hologram optical element and the wavelength range ??2 at half of the intensity of each of the three primary colors of the light emitted from the light source is defined by ??1 <??2.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2008Date of Patent: February 14, 2012Assignee: Konica Minolta Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Yoshie Shimizu, Yasushi Tanijiri, Takeshi Endo, Tetsuya Noda

Patent number: 8040783Abstract: An optical information recording and reproducing apparatus relating to the invention employs a two-beam interference method. In the optical information recording and reproducing apparatus, a moving device moves an information recording medium between a recording and reproducing position and a retracting position, and a mirror moves together with the information recording medium. When the information recording medium moves to the recording and reproducing position, the mirror moves to a position which is displaced from the at least one of the reference beam and the information beam. When the information recording medium moves to the retracting position, the mirror moves to a position where the mirror can reflect the at least one of the reference beam and the information beam toward a detector for detecting a deviation of the at least one of the reference beam and the information beam.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2009Date of Patent: October 18, 2011Assignee: Konica Minolta Opto, Inc.Inventors: Takeshi Endo, Hiroshi Hatano, Tetsuya Noda, Kazutaka Noguchi, Hiroyuki Matsuda, Shigeru Yamasaki

Patent number: 7898502Abstract: Variation of the wavelength of the light emitted from a light source is reduced by a wavelength variation reduction mechanism. Hence, wavelength deviation of the intensity peak of the light emitted from the light source from the diffraction-efficiency peak of a hologram optical element is reduced. Thus, even when a high-brightness light source is used, the light emitted therefrom can be diffracted with the hologram optical element efficiently. Moreover, the heat generated by the light source is efficiently rejected through the surface of a land portion of a flexible printed circuit, is then, via an insulating layer of the flexible printed circuit, efficiently absorbed through the surface of a heat absorbing member, and is then, via a shield conductor, led out of a casing, so as to be thereby expelled.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2007Date of Patent: March 1, 2011Assignee: Konica Minolta Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Yasushi Tanijiri, Ichiro Kasai, Tetsuya Noda, Hiroshi Yamaguchi, Yoshie Shimizu

Patent number: 7835050Abstract: A hologram optical element is formed on a substrate so as to make an optical device. The hologram optical element is formed in an area smaller than an irradiation area of a beam for reproduction such as image light or object light on the substrate. Supposing that the beam for reproduction is made of a center beam having intensity higher than 50% of center intensity and other peripheral beam, the hologram optical element is formed on the substrate in a size for diffracting only the center beam so that a flare or a ghost can be relieved without using additional optical elements such as a shading plate.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2006Date of Patent: November 16, 2010Assignee: Konica Minolta Photo Imaging, Inc.Inventors: Yasushi Tanijiri, Yoshie Shimizu, Tetsuya Noda, Ichiro Kasai
