Patent number: 11946513Abstract: A clutch device includes a clutch center, and a pressure plate movable toward or away from the clutch center, rotatable relative to the clutch center, and operable to press input-side rotating plates and output-side rotating plates. The clutch center includes center-side fitting teeth holding the input-side rotating plates and the output-side rotating plates, projecting radially outward from an outer peripheral surface of an outer peripheral wall, and arranged in circumferential directions, and an oil channel in an end portion of at least one of the center-side fitting teeth in a second direction. The oil channel allows clutch oil flowing at least at an inner peripheral surface of the outer peripheral wall to be discharged to outside of the clutch center.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2023Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: KABUSHIKI KAISHA F.C.C.Inventors: Makoto Kambara, Jun Komukai

Patent number: 10373063Abstract: In a search schedule determining apparatus, a target probability distribution showing a distribution of probabilities of positions of a target in a time zone is calculated based on target previous information. A search ability showing a quantitative evaluation of an ability to discover the target is calculated based on search vehicle previous information. A search effort distribution is calculated based on the target probability distribution and the search ability such that a combination of probabilities in which each of the search vehicles discovers the target has a maximum. A search schedule is automatically determined based on the target previous information and the search vehicle previous information such that the search vehicles are operated to realize the search effort distribution.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2015Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES, LTD.Inventor: Jun Komukai
