Patent number: 11933964Abstract: An optical scanning apparatus includes a first polarizing member and a second polarizing member between a light source and a MEMS mirror that is a deflection mirror. The first polarizing member reflects a first polarization component included in a beam light emitted from the light source so as to squarely enter the MEMS mirror and passes a second polarization component having a phase difference of a half-wavelength with respect to the first polarization component. The second polarizing member is provided between the first polarizing member and the MEMS mirror to pass the first polarization component reflected by the first polarizing member therethrough twice before and after being reflected by the MEMS mirror to change the first polarization component into the second polarization component. A rotation axis of the MEMS mirror is parallel to an optical axis of the beam light immediately before being reflected by the first polarizing member.Type: GrantFiled: July 5, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: SHARP KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Hiroshi Yamamoto, Hidenori Sato, Takaharu Motoyama

Publication number: 20150169288Abstract: It is difficult to assign a unified index to log data accumulated and managed at individual systems with, for example, different installation ranges and times, a compliance standard, and vendors. Accordingly, it is burdensome to trace a flow of data and operations from the accumulated log data. Furthermore, if granularity of data which are output to logs differs, there is a possibility that data which can hardly be understood or are unnecessary depending on a user might be included even if all the logs are presented to the user. A log is linked to a sequence across nodes and systems by means of a combination of partial link information. Information is presented according to granularity based on the user's view, for example, on a transmitted and received data basis, application data basis, and inter-system data basis by referring to, for example, application data definition information and system configuration information.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2012Publication date: June 18, 2015Applicant: Hitachi, Ltd..Inventors: Hidenori Yamamoto, Takashi Fukumoto, Hideki Tonooka
