Publication number: 20240126155Abstract: A projector includes a projection lens and a projector body. In the projection lens, a U-shaped optical path is formed by optical axis to optical axis. A lens barrel is a U-shaped barrel. A housing of the projector body includes a storage section. The projection lens is supported rotatably about the optical axis with respect to the housing, in an up-down direction and a right-left direction of the housing perpendicular to the optical axis, between a first position where the projection lens is stored inside a storage section provided in the housing and a second position where the projection lens is protruding from the housing.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 27, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Masaru AMANO, Yukiko NAGATOSHI, Hironobu KAYANO, Kenji ITO

Patent number: 6883582Abstract: To provide a monitoring system for remotely monitoring the operation of a molding apparatus or an air-flow and press molding apparatus. The monitoring systems for monitoring a molding apparatus and an airflow and press molding apparatus include sensors, a local unit, and a remote unit. The local unit transmits the signals associated with the required attributes, which are measured by the sensors, of the molding apparatus to the remote unit via the communication network. The remote unit is designed so that it receives the signals transmitted from the local unit; thereby the user can monitor the molding apparatus or the air-flow and press molding apparatus remotely at the production and operation by them.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2003Date of Patent: April 26, 2005Assignee: Sintokogio, Ltd.Inventors: Hironobu Amano, Yasuo Moribe, Hiroshi Umeda, Mitsuyuki Matsushita

Patent number: 5695000Abstract: The molding apparatus includes a table movable between an area where molding sand is fed and a mold-producing area for carrying a pattern plate on which a flask is mounted, a cylinder for vertically moving the table, a closing cover having an opening at the lower part thereof, the opening communicating with an upper opening of the flask. The closing cover has a stepped part such that the cross-sectional area of the lower part of the closing cover is smaller than that of the upper part thereof. At least one air-supply pipe communicates with the upper part of the closing cover and an air valve communicates with the air-supply pipe to introduce ambient air into the air-supply pipe. An opening is formed in an upper and side part of the closing cover for communicating with a vacuum source. A press plate is suspended in the closing cover for a vertical movement such that the press plate can be airtightly inserted into the small lower part of the closing cover.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 1995Date of Patent: December 9, 1997Assignee: Sintokogio, Ltd.Inventors: Nagato Uzaki, Ukichi Oishi, Ryoji Kanayama, Hironobu Amano, Tokiya Terabe

Patent number: 5558148Abstract: Molding sand (5) is fed into a space defined by a pattern plate (2) and a flask (3) mounted on the pattern plate (2), and the space is enclosed at the upper part of the flask (3) by a cover (6). The air in the enclosed space is evacuated to reduce the air pressure between the grains of the molding sand in the enclosed space to 1 Torr to 150 Torr, and then air is introduced into the enclosed space from the upper part of the space so that the pressure in the space can increase at the rate of 15 atm/s to compress the molding sand (5). The method eliminates the need for vent holes and enables the mold to be crack-free since the air flow is not reflected.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 1995Date of Patent: September 24, 1996Assignee: Sintokogia, Ltd.Inventors: Nagato Uzaki, Ukichi Oishi, Ryoji Kanayama, Hironobu Amano, Tokiya Terabe

Patent number: 4931242Abstract: A method of forming from a sintering material slurry a shaped-body to be sintered having a complicated configuration. A mold is prepared using frames, a shielding member swollen with a solvent, and a filler including a substance formed of particles, and utilizing the action of vacuum. A sintering material slurry is poured into the thus prepared mold to form a shaped-body to be sintered.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 1988Date of Patent: June 5, 1990Assignee: Sintokogio, Ltd.Inventors: Shoji Uchimura, Hironobu Amano, Kazuhiro Ohta, Hirohide Ishiguro, Takehiko Matsumoto, Takuya Ito
