Patent number: 10520162Abstract: Provided is a high-decorativeness illumination device that utilizes lenticular lens sheets. An illumination device includes first to third lenticular lens sheets, an LED light source, and a casing. The first and second lenticular lens sheets are laminated such that an angle formed by plano-convex cylindrical lenses falls within a first angle range which is greater than 0 degrees and is less than 30 degrees. Accordingly, moire fringes appear in illumination light rays. The third lenticular lens sheet is laminated on the first and second lenticular lens sheets such that angles formed by plano-convex cylindrical lenses fall within a second angle range which is equal to or greater than 30 degrees and is equal to or less than 90 degrees.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2018Date of Patent: December 31, 2019Assignee: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Samito Nakamura, Hiromi Takenoshita, Daisaku Abiru

Patent number: 10371955Abstract: Provided is a high decorative illumination device that utilizes a lenticular lens sheet. An illumination device includes a lenticular lens sheet and an LED light source. The lenticular lens sheet is curved in an X direction, and a convex surface is formed in a concave shape. The LED light source is positioned inside the convex surface of the lenticular lens sheet. First and second reflection components from first and second bright points which are acquired by reflecting irradiation light rays from the LED light source from plano-convex cylindrical lenses are incident on left and right eyes of an observer who observes the illumination device. The observer observes a virtual image as if a light emitter is present in a position in which the first and second reflection components cross each other.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 2018Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Samito Nakamura, Hiromi Takenoshita, Daisaku Abiru, Shuji Ono

Publication number: 20180340671Abstract: A decorative member as a three-dimensional molded article is formed in a curved sheet shape. In the decorative member, a plurality of cylindrical lenses is arrayed in parallel on one surface. In cylindrical lenses in a molding portion and cylindrical lenses in a molding portion, the orientations of the lenses are different from each other. In addition, in the cylindrical lenses in the molding portion and the cylindrical lenses in the molding portion, the shapes of cross sections of these cylindrical lenses in the array direction are different from each other.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 17, 2018Publication date: November 29, 2018Applicant: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Daisaku ABIRU, Hiromi TAKENOSHITA, Samito NAKAMURA

Patent number: 10134309Abstract: A decorative cover includes a lenticular lens sheet, an outer frame, a connection point, and a plurality of LED chips. The outer frame is fitted onto an outer periphery of a smartphone. The lenticular lens sheet is integrated with the outer frame and covers a rear surface of the smartphone. The plurality of LED chips is arranged parallel to a longitudinal direction of cylindrical lenses on a flat surface side of the lenticular lens sheet. A drive unit changes a light emission state of each of the plurality of LED chips. The drive unit is connected with a control unit of the smartphone through a connection point and the connection point. The drive unit changes the light emission state of each LED chip in accordance with an operating state of the smartphone operated by the control unit.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2017Date of Patent: November 20, 2018Assignee: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Samito Nakamura, Hiromi Takenoshita, Daisaku Abiru

Publication number: 20180039089Abstract: Provided is a decorative sheet capable of obtaining an equivalent or higher quality texture than that of a real carbon fiber sheet. The decorative sheet (10) includes a lenticular lens sheet (11) and an image forming layer (13). The lenticular lens sheet includes a plurality of cylindrical lenses (15). The image forming layer includes a first sub-divided region (Si), a second sub-divided region (S2), and an intermediate region (SM) in a unit region corresponding to each of the cylindrical lenses. By changing an observation direction of the decorative sheet, a first-design (P1), a gradation-design (PG), and a second-design (P2) are sequentially observed. The first-design and the second-design have mutually inverted densities. Images of the first-design, the second-design, and the gradation-design are formed in the first sub-divided region, the second sub-divided region, and the intermediate region, respectively, in a state where they are sub-divided in a belt shape.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2017Publication date: February 8, 2018Applicant: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Samito NAKAMURA, Hiromi TAKENOSHITA, Daisaku ABIRU

Patent number: 9772661Abstract: Portable terminal equipment as a mobile telephone includes a display device disposed with a front surface of a housing. A first touch sensor is provided in the display device. A lateral recess is formed in at least one side surface of the housing. A side touch sensor is disposed in the housing in a range including the lateral recess. Preferably, the lateral recess is constituted by plural lateral recesses formed in the one side surface. Also, a state detection device recognizes a lateral recess where contact is detected among the plural lateral recesses by use of the side touch sensor. A disabling device disables the side touch sensor from detecting contact in a lateral recess among the lateral recesses other than the lateral recess where contact is detected, for adaptation to finger operation of one of right and left hands.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2015Date of Patent: September 26, 2017Assignee: FUJIFILM CorporationInventor: Samito Nakamura

Patent number: 9645711Abstract: An electronic book reader includes a touchscreen display device disposed on a front surface of a housing. A storage medium stores image sequence information of plural images of a predetermined sequence. A contact surface portion is disposed on a side surface of the housing. A touch sensor detects contact with the contact surface portion. There is a CPU for display control of displaying the image sequence information on the touchscreen display device. An information processing device is connected between the storage medium and the CPU, for processing the image sequence information according to contact information from the touch sensor. The contact information is information of a rubbing movement in contact with the contact surface portion. The information processing device processes the image sequence information for forward or backward page turning according to a direction of the rubbing movement.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2015Date of Patent: May 9, 2017Assignee: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Yasuhiro Shinkai, Yuzo Aoshima, Samito Nakamura
