Patent number: 7914596Abstract: Behind a front panel of an air purifier are formed guide paths on the right and left sides thereof. A space between the front panel and a filter unit is partitioned by a partition plate into a front panel rear space and a filter unit front space. Part of an airflow that has entered the guide path through an air intake enters the filter unit front space, and the other part thereof enters the front panel rear space. When entering the front panel rear space, the airflow takes a sharp turn at a sharp turn corner. As a result, coarse dust is separated from the airflow, and the separated coarse dust falls into a dust box.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2006Date of Patent: March 29, 2011Assignee: Sharp Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Haruhito Miyazaki, Takeshi Furukawa, Shinichiroh Murayama, Ryuhji Asakura

Patent number: 7621115Abstract: The present invention provides a hall-type electric propulsion that exhibits both overheating protection and operational stability, thereby simultaneously solving the problem of waste heat, which worsens with micronization, and the problem of discharge current oscillation. First, the magnetic flux distribution in ionization/acceleration channel is formed to optimize ion velocity vector, whereupon a propellant flow passage (propellant conduit) is disposed in a magnetic pole of the propulsion, or more specifically in the vicinity of the acceleration channel, and then propellant is passed through the flow passage. Thus, the magnetic pole, which is overheated by the generated plasma, can be cooled, and at the same time the propellant can be heated.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2008Date of Patent: November 24, 2009Assignee: Japan Aerospace Exploration AgencyInventor: Takeshi Furukawa

Publication number: 20090125836Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an image output device capable of performing a screen switching without causing a user to feel discomfort or anxiety. An in-vehicle image output device 101 receives moving image data from a content storing section 110 via a communication section 102, and the received moving image data is decoded in a decoding section 103. An effect processing controlling section 106 calculates, as an effect processing execution time, a time period required from when an instruction to reproduce the moving image data is received to when the reproduction of the moving image data starts, and causes an effect processed image generating section 107 to generate an image in which a current screen is shifted to a subsequent screen. After displaying the effect processed image, the control section 105 changes an output so as to display an image of the moving image data.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 10, 2007Publication date: May 14, 2009Inventors: Akihiro Yamamoto, Kenji Nishimura, Toshiaki Mori, Atsushi Iisaka, Takeshi Furukawa
