Patent number: 10116175Abstract: A stator and a rotary electric machine include a stator core including a plurality of stacked annular electromagnetic steel plates with coupling portions. The coupling portions are arranged with a pitch of an integral multiple of a central angle. The central angle is defined as an angle between two adjacent magnetic poles of the same polarity relative to a rotational center of the rotor. When a number of the coupling portions is an odd number, fixing portions are arranged with the same pitch as the pitch of the coupling portions, or with a pitch corresponding to a divisor of the pitch of the coupling portions. When a number of the coupling portions is an even number, the fixing portions are arranged with a pitch corresponding to a divisor of the pitch of the coupling portions, or a divisor of 180°.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2016Date of Patent: October 30, 2018Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Ken Noda, Hiroyuki Hattori

Patent number: 6636953Abstract: A receiving apparatus that sequentially receives and accumulates a plurality of broadcast contents into a storage medium deletes each content accumulated in the storage medium after a predetermined time period as the capacity of the storage medium is limited. The receiving apparatus is connected to at least one external device, and accepts a user designation of a content to be stored and of an external device into which the content is to be stored. The receiving apparatus schedules the transfer of the content in the available time period of the external device, and transfers the content to the external device if the device is not busy at the scheduled time.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2001Date of Patent: October 21, 2003Assignee: Matsushita Electric Co., Ltd.Inventors: Aki Yuasa, Hideyuki Takeda, Ken Noda, Hiroyuki Iitsuka
