Patent number: 7754015Abstract: This invention relates to a vacuum vapor-deposition apparatus for forming vapor-deposited films on a base film, thereby to produce vapor-deposited films, and also to a method of producing vapor-deposited films. In the vacuum vapor-deposition apparatus, the synchronizing means equalizes the circumference velocity v1 of the coating roll and the circumference velocity v2 of the takeup guide roll. Hence, v1=v2. Therefore, the takeup guide roll never rubs the vapor-deposited layer provided on the surface of the film. This eliminates the possibility that the vapor-deposited layer has scratches. The vapor-deposited layer can therefore possess desired properties.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2005Date of Patent: July 13, 2010Assignees: Toppan Printing Co., Ltd., Applied Materials GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Noboru Sasaki, Hiroshi Suzuki, Fumitake Koizumi, Nobuhiko Imai, Kunimasa Arai, Hiroyuki Konagai

Patent number: 7507368Abstract: A small hot-air circulation furnace performs continuous treatment using hot air at a fixed temperature. Hot air supplied from a heat source is blown out from an axial-flow fan toward a hearth to form a circulating flow passing through an annular heating-target mount on the rotating hearth. The heating-targets are taken out one by one after increasing the temperature of the heating-target on the mount to a predetermined point during one rotation of the hearth. Further, a partition whose outlet-side opening ?2 is narrower than the inlet-side opening ?1 is provided inside the annular partition to supply part of high-temperature gas blown.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2004Date of Patent: March 24, 2009Assignees: Nippon Furnace Kogyo Kaisha, Ltd., Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Kiyobumi Kurita, Noboru Sasaki, Yukiharu Itakura

Patent number: 7123293Abstract: In image processing on digital image signals, a color difference due to a type of image sensing device by which the image signals have been acquired is compensated. For this purpose, a characteristic value, such as an average of each digital image signal, is extracted from digital image signals of a plurality of subjects photographed by the same image sensing device. Based on the characteristic value, conversion of each image signal is carried out.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 1999Date of Patent: October 17, 2006Assignee: Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd.Inventors: Mitsuhiro Uchida, Noboru Sasaki
