Patent number: 11409282Abstract: A control system for a movable body is mountable on the movable body. The control system includes controllers and a detector. The controllers are configured to control functional systems of the movable body. The detector is configured to detect a movement situation of the movable body. Priorities corresponding to movement situations of the movable body are in advance assigned to each of the plurality of functional systems. When at least one of the plurality of controllers malfunctions, control resources of normal controllers, among the plurality of controllers, which do not malfunction are preferentially distributed to one or more of the functional systems having a high priority according to the movement situation of the movable body at that time.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2019Date of Patent: August 9, 2022Assignee: SUBARU CORPORATIONInventors: Kei Suzuki, Masahito Hayakawa, Masato Ogura, Yuichi Nagai

Patent number: 6142920Abstract: A tool gripper which holds a plurality of tools in arm portions thereof. The gripper is provided in a tool rack type magazine that accommodates tools used in machine tools, and each of the arm portions of the tool gripper is arc-shaped and opened in an obliquely upward direction so that a tool entrance of the arm portion faces obliquely upward over a tool holding portion of the arm portion. The tool gripper is obtained by processing a continuous, elongated plate with laser or press to form the arm portions, and such a plate can be obtained by overlaying a plurality of thin plates in the thickness direction into a sandwich structure.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 1998Date of Patent: November 7, 2000Assignee: Mori Machinery CorporationInventor: Masato Ogura

Patent number: 4722159Abstract: Artificial cultivation of mushrooms is described, comprising growing the mushrooms in a culture medium comprising a fungal bed and a covering soil having laid therebetween a water-absorbing sheet composed of a porous sheet and a water-absorbing polymeric substance. The present invention yields various advantages; for example, even if the frequency of water-spray is considerably reduced, the water content of the covering soil can be maintained at 70 to 80%. Thus, it permits production of high quality mushrooms in high yields.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 1987Date of Patent: February 2, 1988Assignee: Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masashi Watanabe, Masato Ogura, Seigo Ouchi

Patent number: 4457672Abstract: A fan assembly has a main body support and a mounting member which are inclined at a predetermined angle thus permitting the fan assembly to be mounted either adjacent to the upper edge of a wall or in a corner of a ceiling. A rotating grill disperses a current of air over a relatively wide area. The main body support has a groove which accommodates a mating engageable member of the mounting member thus permitting the fan assembly to be securely mounted to a wall or a ceiling.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 1981Date of Patent: July 3, 1984Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Masato Ogura, Noriyasu Horio

Patent number: 4367323Abstract: The invention is to provide the methods for producing highly water-absorbable and water-retainable hydrogels having a large particle diameter together with a sufficient gel strength. The method is characterized by use of a specific dispersing agent in the water-in-oil type inverse phase suspension polymerization of an .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated carboxylic acid and/or its alkali metal salt. Due to the high water-absorbability and water-retainability, along with the superior gel strength and the stable gel structure, the hydrogels of the invention enlarge the conventional range of usages.Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 1981Date of Patent: January 4, 1983Assignee: Sumitomo Chemical Company, LimitedInventors: Shuji Kitamura, Fumio Fujita, Toshihiro Oonishi, Yoshiharu Tatsukami, Masato Ogura, Masahiro Niwano, Masaru Oota, Toshifumi Tamura
