Patents by Inventor Eisuke SHIINA

Eisuke SHIINA 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: 10801996
    Abstract: An inspection system includes: a sheet material that is attached to a surface of a pipe and has two-dimensional patterns drawn thereon that are arranged on the pipe and indicate positions on the pipe; a reader that is mounted to an ultrasonic probe and reads the two-dimensional patterns; and a calculation unit that acquires position data on the pipe based on the two-dimensional patterns read by the reader. The inspection system associates the position data with a flaw detection result obtained from a detection result based on the ultrasonic probe.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10365151
    Abstract: Disclosed is an inspection probe of an inspection system that includes an ultrasonic probe that is freely movable on a test object and irradiates the test object with an ultrasonic wave to detect a reflected wave, and a calculation unit that executes arithmetic processing according to a detection result according to the ultrasonic probe to acquire a flaw detection result of the test object. The inspection probe includes a chassis that is freely movable on a sheet material where a two-dimensional pattern disposed on the test object and indicating a position on the test object is drawn. The ultrasonic probe is fixed to the chassis so that an incident point of an ultrasonic wave that is incident onto an opposing surface of the test object from the ultrasonic probe is within an angle of view of the reader which reads the two-dimensional pattern.
