Patent number: 12241103Abstract: Provided is a novel production system that does not involve, or can minimize, the transport of liquid ammonia in the production of an organic compound or the production of a microorganism by microbial fermentation. A production system for an organic compound or a microorganism includes: an ammonia synthesis apparatus in which an ammonia-containing gas is synthesized by reaction of a source gas containing hydrogen and nitrogen in the presence of a supported ruthenium catalyst; and a culture apparatus that cultures a microorganism having organic compound productivity using ammonia originating from the ammonia-containing gas obtained by using the ammonia synthesis apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2020Date of Patent: March 4, 2025Assignees: Ajinomoto Co., Inc., Tokyo Institute of TechnologyInventors: Mitsuhiro Kishino, Hiroyuki Kojima, Hideo Hosono, Michikazu Hara, Masaaki Kitano, Toshiharu Yokoyama, Toru Numaguchi, Munenobu Ito, Kazuteru Yamada, Hiromi Noguchi

Patent number: 8973432Abstract: An evaluation unit includes a front-rear acceleration sensor and an up-down acceleration sensor. The evaluation unit calculates a length of a track obtained by plotting detected front-rear and up-down accelerations on a three-dimensional space along a time axis within a period from gear shift start of an automatic transmission to gear shift end, calculate a track length per unit time by dividing the length of the track by a time interval from the gear shift start to the gear shift end, and evaluates that a gear shift shock is larger as the track length per unit time is longer.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2011Date of Patent: March 10, 2015Assignees: JATCO Ltd, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Mitsuhiro Kishino, Tsubura Aihara, Hiroshi Sugiyama

Patent number: 8146433Abstract: A failure detect device detects the presence of a failure in a peripheral member of a rotary shaft by analyzing a vibration generated in a device provided with the rotary shaft when the rotary shaft is rotated. A vibration detection unit detects the vibration of the device, and a rotation speed detection unit detects a rotation speed of the rotary shaft. An analysis unit calculates a frequency spectrum of the vibration of the device and determines an actually measured vibration level at each vibration order by dividing a frequency component of the calculated frequency spectrum by the rotation speed of the rotary shaft. A detection unit detects the presence of a failure in the peripheral member on the basis of the actually measured vibration level at each vibration order.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2009Date of Patent: April 3, 2012Assignee: Jatco LtdInventors: Mitsuhiro Kishino, Hisashi Kudou, Masayuki Ashizawa, Hiromu Soya
