Patent number: 12194874Abstract: A power supply device includes a moving unit that moves a power supply fitting body in an insertion-extraction direction, an up-down direction, and a lateral direction that is orthogonal to the insertion-extraction direction and the up-down direction, and a controller that controls the movement of the power supply fitting body by the moving unit. A position detection device moves in linkage with the movement of the power supply fitting body by the moving unit. A power reception fitting body includes first structures extending along the lateral direction and second structures related to a central position of the power reception fitting body in the lateral direction. The first structure and the second structure are formed protruding to one side of the up-down direction with respect to a ceiling surface. The distances between the second structures and the first structures in the insertion-extraction direction are set in advance.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2022Date of Patent: January 14, 2025Assignee: YAZAKI CORPORATIONInventors: Koji Ikegaya, Takashi Shiroki, Yukinari Naganishi, Suguru Sakamoto

Publication number: 20240025281Abstract: A vehicle charging system includes a main body fixed to a floor part of a vehicle stop space, a slide body slidable in a first direction relative to the main body, a connector unit including arms and a connector to be connected to the vehicle to charge, a first cover that covers the arms from a side of the main body while pivoting in conjunction with pivoting of the arms, a second cover supported by the slide body and disposed on a side opposite to the side of the main body, and third covers supported by the slide body and disposed on both sides of the connector unit in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction. When the arms are erected, the second cover and the third covers extend upward in conjunction with the pivoting of the arms, thereby forming a frame that surrounds the arms.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 13, 2023Publication date: January 25, 2024Inventors: Yukinari Naganishi, Koji Ikegaya, Takashi Shiroki, Hajime Ojiro, Masahiro Namba

Patent number: 10872722Abstract: A shield member and a power transmission unit each include a shielding wall formed annularly about an axis so as to surround a power transmission coil at a position extending along an intersecting direction. The shielding wall shields a magnetic force generated by the power transmission coil. The shielding wall is formed such that a distance between wall faces facing each other in the intersecting direction is wider at a longer distance from a first side toward a second side in an axial direction.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2018Date of Patent: December 22, 2020Assignee: YAZAKI CORPORATIONInventors: Antony Wambugu Ngahu, Takashi Shiroki, Takahiro Nakahara, Ryohei Nishizaki, Takayuki Ueda

Patent number: 10848342Abstract: A communication control system includes a first communication control device that includes a switching unit, a first gateway unit, a first power supply unit, and a first housing. The switching unit is provided in a vehicle, has a plurality of ports, and distributes a signal thereto. The first gateway unit has the CPU that is coupled to any one of the ports to convert a communication protocol of a signal. The first power supply unit supplies electric power to the switching unit and the first gateway unit. The first housing accommodates the switching unit, the first gateway unit, and the first power supply unit. The CPU can execute security processing for monitoring the switching unit.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2019Date of Patent: November 24, 2020Assignee: YAZAKI CORPORATIONInventors: Takashi Shiroki, Takayuki Ueda, You Yanagida
