Publication number: 20240149872Abstract: A collision damage reduction apparatus executes a collision damage reduction control to reduce damage due to a collision of an own vehicle with an object. The apparatus executes the collision damage reduction control when the object exists in a first area. The first area is an area in a moving direction of the own vehicle and has a first width set, based on a width of the own vehicle. The apparatus executes the collision damage reduction control when the object does not exist in the first area, but the object predictively exists in a second area after a predetermined period of time. The second area is an area in the moving direction of the own vehicle and has a width smaller than the first width.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 18, 2023Publication date: May 9, 2024Inventors: Kento OOE, Kan MAYOSHI, Atsushi KOBAYASHI

Publication number: 20240025365Abstract: There is provided an interior component for a vehicle including an impact absorbing member that is lightweight and compact while improving energy absorption efficiency in the event of a side collision. A side door component includes a door panel; a door trim attached to the door panel; and a protector disposed between the door panel and the door trim and attached to one of the door panel and the door trim. The protector has a bottom surface on which fixing portions attached to the one of the door panel and the door trim are formed, and a facing surface facing the other of the door panel and the door trim, and is attached to the one of the door panel and the door trim in a cantilever manner.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2021Publication date: January 25, 2024Inventors: Naoki KUBO, Yuta OGIWARA, Kento KOBAYASHI, Atsushi YASUKAWA, Koji SHIMADA

Patent number: 11233753Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes memory and a processor. When first and second users have a conversation by transmitting and receiving conversation information to and from each other, and the first user chooses to use an automatic reply function for conversation information that is transmitted from the second user after the first user has received conversation information from the second user at least once or more, the processor is configured to automatically reply to conversation information that is transmitted to the first user from the second user after the first user has made the choice.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2020Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: FUJIFILM Business Innovation Corp.Inventor: Kento Kobayashi

Patent number: 11118634Abstract: A torque limiter 10 includes an input unit 11 connected to a driving device M on input side, and an output unit 12 connected to a robot arm A on output side. The input unit 11 and the output unit 12 include a coupling structure in which the input unit 11 and the output unit 12 approach and recede from each other so as to enable switching of a connecting state where the input unit 11 and the output unit 12 are connected to each other and a non-connecting state where the input unit 11 and the output unit 12 are not connected to each other, through adjustment of magnetic force therebetween. The coupling structure includes an electromagnet 17 that enables adjustment of the magnetic force through adjustment of an application voltage.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2018Date of Patent: September 14, 2021Assignee: WASEDA UNIVERSITYInventors: Alexander Schmitz, Wei Wang, Alexis Carlos Holgado, Chincheng Hsu, Kento Kobayashi, Javier Alvarez Lopez, Yushi Wang, Shigeki Sugano

Publication number: 20200139562Abstract: A power transmission system 10 includes: a variable torque limiter 16 configured to allow a torque limit value to be variable, the torque limit value being an upper limit value of transmitted power from an input unit 21 to an output unit 22; an input-side displacement sensor 17A configured to detect a displacement state of the input unit 21; an output-side displacement sensor 17B configured to detect a displacement state of the output unit 22; and a control device 19 configured to perform transmission control of the power based on detection results of the respective sensors. The control device 19 includes a safety measure control function 25, a teaching control function 26, and an operation control function 27. The safety measure control function 25 interrupts transmission of the power when the transmitted power exceeds the limit value. The teaching control function 26 interrupts transmission of the power in teaching.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2018Publication date: May 7, 2020Applicant: WASEDA UNIVERSITYInventors: Alexander Schmitz, Wei Wang, Alexis Carlos Holgado, Chincheng Hsu, Kento Kobayashi, Javier Alvarez Lopez, Yushi Wang, Shigeki Sugano
