Patents by Inventor Yasuharu Kudo

Yasuharu Kudo 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).

  • Positioning and control apparatus that is interactively programmable using a display
    Patent number: 5631531
    Abstract: An apparatus for synchronously controlling the actual operation of a machine using one or more motors, such as servo motors, by simulating in program form a combination of selectable machine mechanisms, including drivers, connecting shafts, clutches, gears and cams. Each such machine mechanism is represented by a virtual mechanism, preferably as a software module that contains information uniquely identifying the module, operation information that defines the generation of position information and connection information that defines other modules to which connection is made. The software modules comprise drive modules for generating position information, transmission modules for simulating the transmission mechanisms and output modules for outputting motor commands.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 29, 1994
    Date of Patent: May 20, 1997
    Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki Kaisha
    Inventors: Yoshichika Takizawa, Yasuyuki Suzuki, Misako Okada, Makoto Nishimura, Hidehiko Matsumoto, Yasuharu Kudo, Tohru Tsujimoto
