Patent number: 12217343Abstract: An information processing device including a control unit that displays a virtual object on a three-dimensional coordinate space associated with a real space and causes the virtual object to perform a predetermined movement according to a predetermined sound reproduced from a real sound source disposed in the real space, in which the control unit performs delay amount setting processing of increasing a delay amount of movement start timing at which the virtual object is caused to perform the predetermined movement with respect to reproduction timing at which the real sound source reproduces the predetermined sound, as a position of the real sound source in the real space and a position of the virtual object on the three-dimensional coordinate space are separated from each other.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2020Date of Patent: February 4, 2025Assignee: SONY GROUP CORPORATIONInventors: Takaomi Kimura, Yasuko Ishihara, Hajime Wakabayashi, Atsushi Ishihara, Masayuki Inoue, Hirotake Ichikawa, Hidenori Aoki, Ryo Fukazawa

Patent number: 11815009Abstract: A forced-induction device includes a turbine wheel, a turbine housing, and a connection pipe. The connection pipe includes a partition wall that partitions the inside of the connection pipe into a first passage and a second passage. When a cross section orthogonal to a rotation axis of the turbine wheel is viewed, a line segment extending from the distal end of the partition wall toward the upstream side in the flow direction of exhaust gas and defining a boundary between the first passage and the partition wall is a first downstream line segment. A line segment extending from the distal end of the partition wall toward the upstream side in the flow direction of exhaust gas and defining a boundary between the second passage and the partition wall is a second downstream line segment. The first downstream line segment and the second downstream line segment are parallel to each other.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 2023Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Yasuko Inoue, Takashi Tsukiyama

Patent number: 11788459Abstract: A forced-induction device includes a turbine wheel and a partition wall that partitions the interior of a connection pipe into a first passage and a second passage. When viewed in a cross section orthogonal to a rotation axis of the turbine wheel, a line segment connecting the rotation center of the turbine wheel and a downstream end of an inner wall in a flow direction of exhaust gas is a first line segment. A straight line orthogonal to the first line segment and extending from the downstream end in the flow direction of the exhaust gas is a first imaginary line. A straight line passing through a proximal end of the partition wall and orthogonal to an inflow direction of the exhaust gas is a second imaginary line. The distal end of the partition wall is located between the first imaginary line and the second imaginary line.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 2023Date of Patent: October 17, 2023Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Yasuko Inoue, Takashi Tsukiyama

Patent number: 10934882Abstract: A wastegate is attached to a turbine housing of a turbocharger. The wastegate opens and closes a bypass passage. An actuator is coupled to the wastegate via a link mechanism. The link mechanism includes a link rod and a link arm. The longitudinal direction of the link rod in a state in which the bypass passage is fully closed is defined as a width direction of the link arm. The coupling center position in the link arm to which the link rod is coupled is located at a position offset in a direction in which the link rod moves to open the wastegate from a middle of the link arm in the width direction.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2019Date of Patent: March 2, 2021Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Kouji Nagai, Akitoshi Iwata, Akihiro Asano, Takayasu Ogasawara, Yasuko Inoue
