Publication number: 20130259669Abstract: An impeller element includes a plurality of blades disposed along an outer circumference of a circular support plate. Each blade is divided into a plurality of blade sections in a rotational axis direction. At least one of the divided blade sections as a long-chord blade section is configured such that a chord as a line segment connecting a blade outer-circumferential edge and a blade inner-circumferential edge of the blade in a cross section perpendicular to a rotational axis of the blade has a greater length than a chord of another one of the blade sections as a short-chord blade section. The blade inner-circumferential edge of the at least one long-chord blade section having the longer chord protrudes toward the inner circumferential side, relative to the blade inner-circumferential edge of the at least other one of the blade sections as the short-chord blade section having the shorter chord.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2011Publication date: October 3, 2013Applicant: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Takahide Tadokoro, Takashi Ikeda, Shingo Hamada, Mitsuhiro Shirota

Patent number: 7178924Abstract: A lens cap of a projector has a front portion covering a lens and a cylindrical side portion. The front portion has an opening to which a prescribed string holding member is attached. The string holding member is formed to have a pair of engaging portions, a string inserting portion, a cover portion and a guide groove. The pair of engaging portions are engaged with the opening formed in the lens cap. A string is inserted through the string inserting portion, and the string is retained as a knot of the string prevents the string from being pulled out. The cover portion covers the opening with the string holding member engaged in the opening. The guide groove is formed on the back side of the cover portion, and guides the string from the back side to the front side of the front portion of the lens cap. Thus, the lens cap can easily be put on the focus ring without any interference with the front panel.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2004Date of Patent: February 20, 2007Assignee: Funai Electric Co., Ltd.Inventor: Shingo Hamada

Patent number: 6868722Abstract: A diversion passage is constructed into an inverted U shape in which an upstream diversion passage and a downstream diversion passage each having a passage direction in a direction of projection of a detector flow tube communicate by means of a curved portion. An inflow port is constructed by removing a portion of a wall of the upstream diversion passage on an upstream side in the main direction of flow, and removing a portion of first and second side walls of the upstream diversion passage facing each other in a direction perpendicular to the main direction of flow and the direction of projection of the detector flow tube. In addition, a wall surface on a downstream side of the upstream diversion passage in the main direction of flow at the inflow port is formed into a curved surface shape that is gradually displaced upstream relative to the direction of projection of the detector flow tube to constitute an air lead-in surface.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2004Date of Patent: March 22, 2005Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Koji Tanimoto, Hiroyuki Uramachi, Tomoya Yamakawa, Shingo Hamada

Patent number: 6869192Abstract: A rib, provided on an outer periphery of a projection ring, includes: a first rib extending along a direction in which an optical axis of a lens main body extends (an attachment direction of a focus lens); and a second rib, brought into contact with one end of first rib, extending along a direction approximately orthogonal to first rib so as to have one side and the other side. On the other hand, a protrusion, provided on an inner periphery of the cylindrical focus ring, includes a pair of protrusion parts arranged with a spacing in a direction in which an optical axis extends. With this structure, it is possible to obtain a projector having a focus ring capable of being easily attached to a lens main body and being easily molded.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2003Date of Patent: March 22, 2005Assignee: Funai Electric Co., Ltd.Inventor: Shingo Hamada

A string is inserted through the string inserting portion, and the string is retained as a knot of the string prevents the string from being pulled out. The cover portion covers the opening with the string holding member engaged in the opening. The guide groove is formed on the back side of the cover portion, and guides the string from the back side to the front side of the front portion of the lens cap. Thus, the lens cap can easily be put on the focus ring without any interference with the front panel.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 30, 2004Publication date: February 3, 2005Applicant: Funai Electric Co., Ltd.Inventor: Shingo Hamada
