Publication number: 20240118007Abstract: A method for operating a cryocooler includes: connecting a second compressor in series with a first compressor on a high pressure line or a low pressure line; connecting a buffer volume to the low pressure line via a supply valve; executing initial cooling for cooling an expander from an initial temperature to a cryogenic temperature in a state where the second compressor and the buffer volume are connected to the cryocooler; and executing a steady operation of maintaining the expander at the cryogenic temperature after the initial cooling. The execution of the initial cooling includes supplying a working gas to the expander by using the first compressor and the second compressor, and controlling the supply valve to keep a pressure of the high pressure line within a preset appropriate pressure range based on the measured pressure of the high pressure line.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Applicant: SUMITOMO HEAVY INDUSTRIES, LTD.Inventors: Takayuki YOKODO, Takaaki MATSUI

Patent number: 11139763Abstract: A motor drive control device has a controller and a driver. The controller generates a control signal for controlling driving of a two-phase stepping motor so as to alternately repeat one-phase excitation in which a coil of one phase in coils of two phases of the two-phase stepping motor is excited and two-phase excitation in which the coils of two phases in the coils of the two phases are excited. The driver drives the coils of the two phases, based on the control signal. The controller determines, based on a back electromotive force generated in the coil that was not excited during the one-phase excitation, a period of performing the one-phase excitation, and determines, based on the period of the one-phase excitation performed before the two-phase excitation, a period of performing the two-phase excitation.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2020Date of Patent: October 5, 2021Assignee: MINEBEA MITSUMI INC.Inventors: Haruka Miyaji, Kei Yamazaki, Takayuki Matsui, Kazuo Takada, Shigeki Miyaji, Ayaka Shimada
