Patent number: 7952050Abstract: A drilling method and a laser machining apparatus which can shorten the measuring time of workpiece surface height and improve the machining efficiency in spite of irregularities of about 10-30 ?m high in the surface of a table. Surface heights of the table is measured at lattice points in advance. Top surface height at a desired point of the workpiece mounted on the table is measured. Surface height of the point is arithmetically obtained using heights of four points surrounding the point. The difference between the measured height and the arithmetically obtained height is set as the plate thickness of the workpiece. Top surface height of the workpiece at a machining position is regarded as the sum of the plate thickness and the height at that position obtained from the table surface heights.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 2007Date of Patent: May 31, 2011Assignee: Hitachi Via Mechanics, Ltd.Inventors: Hidenori Tateishi, Masaru Futaana, Yuki Saeki, Yasunobu Ueno

Patent number: 7933675Abstract: A machining apparatus in which the machining efficiency can be improved even if characters are machined in a printed circuit board. A coordinate transformation unit is provided for transforming central coordinates of each dot d of each character of a character string into coordinates in a machining coordinate system with which the holes will be machined. Prior to machining, based on a character string and position information of the character string described in a machining program, central coordinates of each dot of each character of the character string are transformed into coordinates in the machining coordinate system with which the holes will be machined. Each dot d is regarded as a hole and machined. The number of times of movement of a table can be thus minimized so that the machining efficiency can be improved.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2008Date of Patent: April 26, 2011Assignee: Hitachi Via Mechanics, Ltd.Inventor: Yasunobu Ueno

Patent number: 7061847Abstract: In an optical recording method and apparatus for an optical storage medium, a recording pulse pattern having a sequence of multiple pulses is used to record one of plural kinds of marks with different lengths on the storage medium through a variable-linear-velocity recording process or a constant-angular-velocity recording process. Two or more discrete write powers are individually allocated to the respective pulses of the recording pulse pattern. Each of the write powers, allocated to the respective pulses of the recording pulse pattern, is linearly varied in proportion with a change of one of the recording linear velocity and a recording position of the storage medium. The resulting recording pulse pattern is supplied to a pickup, and the pickup emits a light beam to the storage medium in accordance with the recording pulse pattern having the linearly varied write powers allocated to the respective pulses, so that one of the plural kinds of marks is recorded on the storage medium.Type: GrantFiled: August 5, 2003Date of Patent: June 13, 2006Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventors: Noboru Sasa, Tatsuya Tomura, Soh Noguchi, Tsutomu Satoh, Yasunobu Ueno, Yasuhiro Higashi
