Publication number: 20250020583Abstract: The present invention is a biological information detection device including: a laser oscillator that oscillates a pulsed laser beam oscillated at a suitable wavelength associated with a measuring target substance; an irradiation mechanism that emits the pulsed laser beam to a liquid biological object inside which the measuring target substance exists; a light receiving sensor that receives a detected laser beam output from the liquid biological object; and a control unit that controls operations of respective components. The control unit outputs an oscillation instruction to the laser oscillator so as to oscillate the pulsed laser beam at a constant cycle, cuts out a detected signal received from the light receiving sensor as time segment data for a time period corresponding to the constant cycle, and calculates a quantity of the measuring target substance in the liquid biological object based on the time segment data.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 9, 2022Publication date: January 16, 2025Applicant: DUJITA MEDICAL INSTRUMENTS Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hironobu MAEDA, Yoshihiro YAMAGUCHI

Patent number: 11557427Abstract: A coil component in which a change in thicknesses of the winding part is prevented is provided. According to the coil component, since each of a pair of neighboring resin walls and a seed part between the pair of resin walls are separated by a predetermined distance, a plating part grown on the seed part is easy to grow uniformly between the pair of neighboring resin walls. For this reason, the winding part whose surface is gentle and in which a change in thickness is prevented is obtained by plating growth.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2020Date of Patent: January 17, 2023Assignee: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Hitoshi Ohkubo, Masazumi Arata, Manabu Ohta, Yuuya Kaname, Yoshihiro Maeda, Takahiro Kawahara, Hokuto Eda, Shigeki Sato

Patent number: 9973122Abstract: A sensorless electric motor control device is provided that completes a phase detection of a rotor before an activation signal is received, so as to shorten a time period from when the activation signal is received to when the rotor reaches a target number of rotations. The control device for a sensorless electric motor 10 includes an inverter 11 that drives the electric motor 10 and a first processor 18 that serves as a phase detection unit that causes the inverter 11 to perform a phase detection before the inverter 11 receives an activation signal that activates the electric motor 10, wherein the phase detection aligns a magnetic pole of a rotor of the electric motor 10 with a predetermined position with respect to a stator.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2015Date of Patent: May 15, 2018Assignee: KABUSHIKI KAISHA TOYOTA JIDOSHOKKIInventors: Kiyoshi Uetsuji, Satoshi Umemura, Yoshihiro Maeda, Makio Oshita, Toshihiro Yamamichi
