Patents by Inventor Kiyoyoshi Takada

Kiyoyoshi Takada has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7129449
    Abstract: An induction heating cooker includes an infrared sensor for sensing an infrared intensity from a load pot, a waveguide for guiding infrared radiation from the load pot to the infrared sensor, a first magnetism-proofing unit and a second magnetism-proofing unit for reducing magnetic fluxes leaking from a heating coil. Placement of the waveguide at a position lower than an upper surface of the second magnetism-proofing unit reduces self-heating of the waveguide due to magnetic flux supplied from the heating coil. As a result, a temperature rise of the infrared sensor due to radiation heat from the waveguide can be reduced, and an accuracy of sensing a temperature by the infrared sensor can be improved.

  • Publication number: 20060141205
    Abstract: In this vacuum heat insulator, an excellent heat insulating performance is obtained even at high temperature, and this excellent heat insulating performance is maintained for a long period. The hot insulating device and electric water heater using this vacuum heat insulator exhibit an excellent hot insulating performance, and are decreased in the power consumption for hot insulation. The vacuum heat insulator includes a laminate bag, and an insulating core placed in the laminate bag, and the inside of the laminate bag is evacuated in a vacuum state. The laminate bag is made of a laminate film. The laminate film includes a support layer, a deposition layer evaporated on the surface of the support layer, a protective layer placed at the surface side of the deposition layer, and a seal layer placed at the back side of the deposition layer. The deposition layer is formed of at least one material of metal and metal oxide.
