Yayoi Sato 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: 11031023
    Abstract: A converter includes a time window cut-out block, a fast Fourier transform (FFT) block, an attenuation amount limitation block, a quantization noise attenuation block, an overtone generation block, an inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) block, and a time window resynthesis block. The attenuation amount limitation block determines the maximum attenuation amount of quantization noise to be attenuated in the quantization noise attenuation block based on the magnitude of a signal level of sound data supplied from the time window cut-out block. The quantization noise attenuation block adjusts amplitude in a frequency domain based on the maximum attenuation amount determined by the attenuation amount limitation block, to attenuate the quantization noise.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8957088
    Abstract: The invention relates to new substituted naphthyridines of formula 1, as well as pharmacologically acceptable salts, diastereomers, enantiomers, racemates, hydrates or solvates thereof, wherein R1 and R6 may have the meanings as described in claim 1, as well as medicaments which contain these compounds. Further, the invention relates to methods of treating a disease selected from asthma, COPD, allergic rhinitis, adult respiratory distress syndrome, bronchitis, allergic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, rheumatoid arthritis and allergic rhinoconjunctivitis by administrating an appropriate amount of a compound of formula 1 to a patient in need thereof.

  • Publication number: 20110201608
    Abstract: The invention relates to new substituted naphthyridines of formula 1, as well as pharmacologically acceptable salts, diastereomers, enantiomers, racemates, hydrates or solvates thereof, wherein R1 denotes a group A selected from among —O—R3, —NR3R4, —CR3R4R5, -(ethyne)-R3, —S—R3, —SO—R3 and SO2—R3 or R1 denotes a group B selected from among C6-10-aryl, five- to ten-membered, mono- or bicyclic heteroaryl with 1-3 heteroatoms selected independently of one another from among N, O and S; while this heteroaryl is linked to the structure according to formula 1 via either a C atom or an N atom, three- to ten-membered, mono- or bicyclic, saturated or partially saturated heterocyclic group with 1-3 heteroatoms selected independently of one another from among N, O and S, while this heterocyclic group is linked to the structure according to formula 1 via either a C atom or an N atom, and 5- to 11-membered spiro group which may optionally contain 1, 2 or 3 heteroatoms selected independently of one another fr
