Toshio Miyahara has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11964590
    Abstract: A battery provided in a vehicle and configured to supply electric power is cooled down by coolant the heat of which is exchanged with the heat of external air by a radiator. The radiator is provided near the battery and performs heat-exchange between the coolant and the external air taken in through introduction holes provided on a bottom face of the vehicle. Thus, even in a case where the radiator is provided in a vehicle floor portion so that the battery is upsized, it is possible to restrain a coolant pipe from being elongated. This accordingly makes it possible to improve mountability to the vehicle.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8340482
    Abstract: An optical fiber holding apparatus in accordance with the present invention is characterized in that the same comprises a surface in order to hold an optical fiber which is to be a state of which is rolled up so as not to overlap with each other, wherein at least the surface is formed of a thermo conductive molding body which has a thermal conductivity to be higher than or equal to 0.5 W/mK, and which has an Asker C hardness to be between twenty and fifty. Or, the same comprises a peripheral surface in order to roll up and hold an optical fiber, wherein at least the peripheral surface is formed of a thermo conductive molding body which has the thermal conductivity to be higher than or equal to 0.5 W/mK, and which has the Asker C hardness to be between twenty and fifty. Moreover, it is desirable for the thermo conductive molding body to have a compressive strength of which a peak value is between ten and thirty N/cm2 and a stabilized value is between three and ten N/cm2.
