Publication number: 20230333395Abstract: A display apparatus is attachable to a user. The display apparatus includes a display, a substrate connected to the display and bendable, and an actuator configured to generate a driving force to move the display in a first direction that intersects a display surface of the display. The actuator is disposed at a position shifted from the display in a second direction different from the first direction. The substrate is fixed at a position closer in the second direction to a surface of the display on a side where the actuator is located than to a surface of the display on a side where the actuator is not located. The substrate extends in the second direction from a connected portion of the substrate connected to the display toward the side where the actuator is located.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 4, 2023Publication date: October 19, 2023Inventor: Kyouhei SUZUKI

Publication number: 20230247270Abstract: A driving apparatus includes a fixed unit, a first movable unit held rotatably about a first axis relative to the fixed unit, a second movable unit held rotatably about a second axis different from the first axis relative to the first movable unit, a bearing configured to support the first movable unit rotatably about the first axis relative to the fixed unit, a first wiring having one end connected to the fixed unit and another end connected to the first movable unit, and a second wiring having one end connected to the fixed unit and another end connected to one of the first movable unit and the second movable unit. The first wiring includes a wound portion wound around the first axis and provided outside the bearing in a radial direction of the bearing. The second wiring is inserted inside the bearing.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 23, 2023Publication date: August 3, 2023Inventors: Shunsuke NINOMIYA, Ryo YAMASAKI, Makoto OIKAWA, Kyouhei SUZUKI

Patent number: 11689120Abstract: A control apparatus for a vibration type actuator that moves a vibrating body in which vibrations are excited by an electromechanical energy conversion element, and a contact body contacting the vibrating body relative to each other includes a generation unit configured to generate multi-phase driving signals having a phase difference applied to the electromechanical energy conversion element, and a detection unit configured to detect an actual position of a movable unit including the vibrating body or the contact body. The generation unit sets the phase difference based on a deviation of the actual position from a target position of the movable unit. The generation unit makes larger a change rate of the phase difference against the deviation from when the movable unit stops to when the movable unit starts moving as the target position changes than that after the movable unit starts moving.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2021Date of Patent: June 27, 2023Assignee: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Kyouhei Suzuki

Publication number: 20230066962Abstract: A display device includes a pair of display units each including displays 1R and 1L and ocular optical systems 2R and 2L. A first driving unit can change an optical positional relationship between the displays 1R and 1L and the ocular optical systems 2R and 2L. A second driving unit can change an interval between the pair of display units. An interpupillary distance adjustment unit adjusts the interval between the display units by the second driving unit in accordance with a detection result obtained by the interpupillary distance detector. After interpupillary distance adjustment is performed, a diopter adjustment unit performs diopter adjustment related to the display unit by the first driving unit.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 11, 2022Publication date: March 2, 2023Inventors: Makoto Oikawa, Ryo Yamasaki, Kyouhei Suzuki, Shunsuke Ninomiya

Patent number: 11463022Abstract: A driving control apparatus that controls driving of a vibration actuator having a plurality of electromechanical energy conversion elements. The driving control apparatus includes a controller configured to generate a plurality of driving signals each of which has a same waveform and has a different phase, and to respectively apply the plurality of driving signals to different elements of the plurality of electromechanical energy conversion elements. The controller changes the waveform according to the phase. A shape of a first waveform according to a first phase is closer to a square wave shape than a shape of a second waveform according to a second phase that is larger than the first phase.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2020Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Kyouhei Suzuki
