Patent number: 10876588Abstract: In the spring mechanism, the negative spring mechanism biasing the loading plate to the positive side in the z-direction has the spring shaft and interspring. The spring shaft is rotatably connected to the fixed part and is connected through the slider with respect to the loading plate so that it can rotate and can move in the x-direction. The connection part with the loading plate is positioned on the positive side in the z-direction and on the positive side in the x-direction relative to the connection part with the fixed part. An elastic force countering the compression is generated by the spring shaft. The interspring is connected to the loading plate and is connected through the slider to the spring shaft. It generates an elastic force countering the displacement to the positive side in the x-direction of the connection part of the spring shaft with the loading plate.Type: GrantFiled: August 5, 2016Date of Patent: December 29, 2020Assignee: NATIONAL UNIVERSITY CORPORATION SAITAMA UNIVERSITYInventor: Masato Saitoh

Publication number: 20100030478Abstract: According to the present invention, an analysis system constructed as a rheology model of a foundation-ground system that is capable of expressing a frequency dependent dynamic spring by using elements with non-frequency-dependent coefficients may be provided. The analysis system according to the present invention is a model for reproducing dynamical characteristics of a system including the foundation and the ground. The analysis system includes an elastic element, a damper element for damping vibration, and a reaction force generation element that generates reaction force proportional to relative acceleration of both ends thereof. The analysis system is constructed as a base system in which the elastic element, the damper element and the reaction force generation element are connected in parallel.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 21, 2008Publication date: February 4, 2010Applicant: NATIONAL UNIVERSITY CORPORATION SAITAMA UNIVERSITYInventor: Masato Saitoh

Patent number: 6026271Abstract: An image forming apparatus is capable of effectively removing a residual toner on a surface of an intermediate transfer roller by a cleaning roller and a predetermined plate form blade without injuring the surface of the intermediate transfer roller. In the electrophotographic type image forming apparatus, the cleaning roller rotates in an opposite direction to the rotating direction of the intermediate transfer roller and is provided in contact with the surface of the intermediate transfer roller. Also, a plate form blade contacting with the cleaning roller is provided. Also, at least the cleaning roller is movable toward and away from the intermediate roller.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 1999Date of Patent: February 15, 2000Assignee: NEC CorporationInventor: Masato Saitoh

Patent number: 5449493Abstract: Piezoelectric elements are attached to both sides of a flexible metal thin plate, thus forming a bimorph-type piezoelectric vibrator. A portion of the metal thin plate is extended to form a stirring blade. A suitable weight is attached to a part of the metal plate such that the amplitude of the blade is made greater than the amplitude of the vibrator itself. The voltage to be applied to the vibrator and the frequency are adjusted, and the vibrator is vibrated in a second-order mode. Thereby, the entire solution is moved simultaneously, vertical motion is caused, and the stirring efficiency is enhanced.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 1993Date of Patent: September 12, 1995Assignees: Kabushiki Kaisha Toshiba, Toshiba Ceramics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kyuji Rokugawa, Morito Inoue, Soichiro Sakaguchi, Hideo Oya, Noboru Aoki, Masato Saitoh
