Patents by Inventor Tomoki Terashima

Tomoki Terashima 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: 10236747
    Abstract: A strain wave gearing with a built-in motor is provided with a motor, a wave gear mechanism enclosing the motor coaxially, and a heat-insulation spacing formed therebetween. The wave gear mechanism has a wave generator attached to the motor rotor so as to rotate integrally with the motor rotor. A wave generator plug of the wave generator is fixed to a rotor magnet back yoke of the motor rotor so as to enclose the rotor magnet back yoke. The spacing is formed in a contact surface portion between the rotor magnet back yoke and the wave generator back yoke, whereby heat transfer from the motor to the wave gear mechanism is suppressed.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9800128
    Abstract: A linear DC motor having first and second drive coils and first and second drive magnets arranged in a symmetrical state in relation to a motor central axis that passes through a sliding member in which a lens is mounted. The first and second coils on a moveable side are positioned to both the left and right sides of the sliding member. The first and second drive coils are designed to be independent without being affected by the shape, size, arrangement position, and the like of the sliding member, a linear guide, and a detection part. The first and second drive coils have high rigidity and do not deform when the sliding member slides. Accordingly, it is possible to obtain a linear DC motor that has a highly rigid moveable part and performs positioning action with high responsiveness and high precision.
