Patent number: 10416346Abstract: A photosensor includes a light projection unit, a light receiving unit, a determination unit that determines a magnitude relation between a received light quantity of the light receiving unit and a threshold value set for the received light quantity; and a threshold value setting unit that sets the threshold value of the received light quantity. The threshold value setting unit calculates for each of a plurality of different wavelength regions, a contrast difference that is a difference between a received light quantity obtained when projection is performed on a detection target on a surface of a workpiece and a received light quantity obtained when projection is performed on a background on the surface of the workpiece, and updates the threshold value based on the contrast difference for a wavelength region among the plurality of wavelength regions in which the contrast difference has a maximum value.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2017Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Assignee: OMRON CorporationInventors: Hironobu Morita, Motoharu Okuno, Yasuhito Uetsuji, Kazunari Komai, Takuya Matsushima, Yusuke Iida, Seho Seo

Patent number: 8877334Abstract: Provided is a surface protection film having a hard-coat property, an anti-glare property and transparency as well as a sufficient weather resistance property. A surface protection layer is provided on at least one surface of a substrate film, the surface protection layer is formed by a cured paint comprising an ionizing radiation curable resin composition, a matting agent, an ultraviolet ray absorbing agent, a dispersant and inorganic fine particles having an average primary particle diameter of 50 nm or smaller whose surfaces are subjected to a hydrophobization treatment with dimethyldichlorosilane. The inorganic fine particles are included by 200 parts or more by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of a dispersant. The inorganic fine particles can be silica.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2010Date of Patent: November 4, 2014Assignee: Kimoto Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hironobu Morita, Shigeru Aoki
