Patent number: 7654698Abstract: A light source device includes a discharge tube, a reflector for reflecting a light radiated from the discharge tube, and support members for supporting the discharge tube to the reflector. The support member or the discharge tube is formed of a heat insulating structure so as to prevent a temperature drop of a portion of the discharge tube near electrodes thereof. By this arrangement, it is possible to prolong the operational life of the discharge tube.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2007Date of Patent: February 2, 2010Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventors: Akio Sotokawa, Seiji Hachisuka

Patent number: 7598748Abstract: An inverter system which converts DC input into AC output and supplies the AC output to a load such as an FL tube detects change in a circuit current due to anomaly such as discharge without contacting with a current route. Relating to an inverter which converts DC input into AC output and supplies the AC output to a load, change in a circuit current of the inverter is detected through the medium of magnetic flux change due to the change in the circuit current caused by discharge. For example, if change in a current occurs in the circuit current of the inverter by disconnection discharge or ground-fault discharge occurring in a current route including a load of the inverter, magnetic flux change occurs in circuit wiring and a space of a core gap of a transformer of the inverter. The change in the circuit current is detected through the medium of the magnetic flux change without contacting with the circuit wiring or the transformer.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2003Date of Patent: October 6, 2009Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventors: Seiji Hachisuka, Masaru Tanaka, Minoru Senba, Shuuichi Yadoori

Patent number: 7541723Abstract: A display device includes a backlight having a discharge tube and a reflector. A heat conduction member is attached to the reflector in contact with the discharge tube, so that a part of the discharge tube is locally cooled by the heat conduction member. Liquid mercury is collected at a first position in the discharge tube, and the backlight is assembled so that the heat conduction member or other cooling device is located at the first position. Also, the display device includes an optical sheet having a diffusion portion having projections containing scattering material particles.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2005Date of Patent: June 2, 2009Assignee: Sharp Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Keiji Hayashi, Tetsuya Kobayashi, Tetsuya Hamada, Takeshi Gotoh, Toshihiro Suzuki, Mari Sugawara, Akio Sotokawa, Seiji Hachisuka

Patent number: 7532316Abstract: The present invention relates to a display panel inspection apparatus for inspecting a display panel composed of a plurality of pixels. The display panel inspection apparatus comprises a detecting unit detecting whether or not each of the pixels is a defective pixel and a holding unit holding a result of the detection by the detecting unit, thereby enabling reliable and easy detection of a defective pixel occurring temporarily due to variations of operation environment such as semi-contact trouble or semi-disconnection trouble, and others.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2007Date of Patent: May 12, 2009Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventor: Seiji Hachisuka
