Patent number: 8198768Abstract: A motor including electrical components laid out to avoid enlargement of the motor. The motor includes a rotor, a cylindrical housing including a closed end and an open end and accommodating the rotor, and an end bracket fixed to the housing to close the open end and including a connector support. Two power supply terminals extend to the connector support. A noise prevention element includes a connection terminal connected to the power supply terminals. A rotation detector detects rotation of the rotor and includes a detector body. The noise prevention element is arranged between the two power supply terminals. The detector body and the noise prevention element are arranged at a portion of the end bracket closer to the connector support and aligned in an axial direction of the motor.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2010Date of Patent: June 12, 2012Assignee: ASMO Co., Ldt.Inventor: Toshiyuki Kitai

Patent number: 8190231Abstract: A sentinel lymph node detecting apparatus 1 includes: an excitation light source unit 2 that illuminates an excitation light 10 onto a living body observation portion 20 including a sentinel lymph node 21 near a tumor into which a fluorescent dye that emits fluorescence is injected; an optical filter 3 that transmits a fluorescence image 11; an image pickup device 4 that is integral with excitation light source unit 2 and picks up fluorescence image 11 transmitted through optical filter 3; an adjusting device 5 that adjusts the picked-up observation image; and an image displaying device 6 that displays the adjusted observation image. Adjusting device 5 adjusts at least one of a luminance and a contrast of the observation image. A lymph node detecting apparatus that is simple in apparatus arrangement, is easy to handle, and enables good images to be obtained is thereby realized.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2004Date of Patent: May 29, 2012Assignee: Hamamatsu Photonics K.K.Inventors: Mitsuharu Miwa, Takahiro Shikayama, Toshiyuki Kitai
