Nobuo Wada has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11796228
    Abstract: A heat exchanger includes: a low temperature side channel through which low temperature liquid helium flows; a high temperature side channel through which high temperature liquid helium flows; and a thermal conduction unit that conducts heat from the high temperature side channel to the low temperature side channel. The thermal conduction unit has a partition member that separates the high temperature side channel and the low temperature side channel from each other and a thermal resistance reduction unit that reduces the thermal resistance between the partition member and the liquid helium. The thermal resistance reduction unit has a porous body having nano-size pores and fine metal particles having higher thermal conductivity than that of the porous body.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6656167
    Abstract: A piercing needle having a low piercing resistance even if repeatedly caused to pierce is provided. The piercing needle has an undercoat of a silane coupling agent, preferably, an amino group-containing alkoxysilane or an epoxy group-containing alkoxysilane, and an outer surface of a mixture of a (1) reactive silicone such as a reaction product of an amino group-containing alkoxysilane, an epoxy group-containing alkoxysilane and a silicone having silanol groups at both terminal ends, with (2) a non-reactive silicone.
