  • Patent number: 4839654
    Abstract: A system for detecting underground objects which uses reflected wave profile data collected for obtaining a detected image output and subjects the data to a sequence of synthetic aperture processing, in which set values of the dielectric constant are successively varied, and obtains the actual dielectric constant of the soil in which the targets are buried by evaluating the results of the synthetic aperture processing, whereby the need for special data collecting work only for obtaining the actual dielectric constant is eliminated.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 10, 1988
    Date of Patent: June 13, 1989
    Assignees: The Tokyo Electric Power Co., Inc., Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki Kaisha
    Inventors: Masaaki Ito, Shiro Odagiri, Kouji Maeda, Yasuhiro Uekubo, Aiko Jitumori, Teruo Usami
  • Patent number: 4831383
    Abstract: A system for detecting underground objects is disclosed wherein image data obtained through a deep range-migration correction and image data obtained through a shallow range-migration correction are combined so that data at the corresponding positions on both the image data at high level may mutually intensify, whereas other data may mutually weaken. The target spot on the thus combined image data is made sharp and provides sufficently high resolution.

  • Patent number: 4493042
    Abstract: A bearing failure judging apparatus correctly judges the type of the cause of a failure of a bearing by synthetically judging many factors found in a vibrating waveform of a vibration produced when a failure takes place in the bearing i.e. various features of the time-waveform; a localization of the amplitudes of the time-waveform, the periods of pulsating waves, a degree of the acuteness of the waveform depicted by its envelope, the presence or absence of the proper peak value in the frequency spectra, and a change of the waveform after a given time.

    Inventors: Ichiji Shima, Hiroshi Teshima, Takayuki Koizumi, Teruo Usami
  • Patent number: 4405376
    Abstract: This invention provides a titanium dioxide pigment improved in durability and dispersibility which a comprises pigmentary titanium dioxide core particle, an inner coating of hydrous oxides of tin and zirconium and an outer coating of hydrous oxide of aluminum, and a process for producing said titanium dioxide pigment.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 16, 1981
    Date of Patent: September 20, 1983
    Assignee: Ishihara Sangyo Kaisha, Ltd.

  • Patent number: 4165458
    Abstract: An electrical signal originating from an abnormal sound is passed through a bandpass filter and compared with a reference signal by a comparator. When the electrical signal is not less than the reference signal, the comparator produces a pulse. A counter counts the pulses from the comparator and causes a display device to display the presence of the abnormal sound when its count exceeds a predetermined value within a predetermined time interval.
