  • Patent number: 10844792
    Abstract: To provide a damping device that includes an acoustic liner that forms an acoustic-liner resonant space along an outer periphery of a combustion chamber in which a combustion gas flows, and an acoustic damper provided on an outer peripheral side of the acoustic liner, to form an acoustic-damper resonant space that communicates with the acoustic-liner resonant space. The acoustic liner is formed with a damper opening connected with the acoustic damper for causing the acoustic-liner resonant space and the acoustic-damper resonant space to communicate with each other. The acoustic liner includes a divided portion that is a portion to be divided in a circumferential direction of the combustion chamber by the damper opening, and a continuous portion that is a portion continuous over the circumferential direction of the combustion chamber.

  • Patent number: 5111447
    Abstract: A photo-pickup wherein a light emitting portion, a surface acoustic wave generating portion, a lens portion, a light receiving portion and a control portion are integrally integrated on a base plate formed on its surface with a light transmission path. The light emitting portion propagates a light beam to the light transmission path. The light beam propagating in the light transmission path is first deflected within a plane of the light transmission path by surface acoustic wave propagating on the light transmission path and propagated towards the lens portion. The lens portion is provided to project the light beam outside from the light transmission path and effect two-dimentional focusing of the projected beam and adjustment of focal position. The light receiving portion comprises a combination of a plurality of light receiving elements disposed at suitable intervals from the projected position of the light beam to receive a reflected light of the light beam.
