Patent number: 6288672Abstract: High-frequency signals from an oscillator (10) are transmitted, through a power divider (12) and a switch (14), from transmission antennas (T1, T2, T3). Reflection waves reflected by targets are received by reception antennas (R1, R2) to thereafter be fed via a switch (16) to a mixer (18). The mixer (18) is supplied with transmission high-frequency signals from the power divider (12) to retrieve beat-signal components therefrom, which in turn are converted into digital signals for the processing in a signal processing circuit 22. The transmission antennas (T1 to T3) and the reception antennas (R1, R2) are switched in sequence whereby it is possible to acquire signals equivalent to ones obtained in radars having a single transmission antenna and six reception antennas.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 1999Date of Patent: September 11, 2001Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Toyota Chuo KenkyushoInventors: Yoshikazu Asano, Tomohisa Harada

Patent number: 6246359Abstract: A signal processing unit detects the azimuthal direction of a target in accordance with the phase difference between signals received by two receiving antennas. Then, by sequentially switching plural transmitting antennas having mutually different beam directions with a switching device, received signals are obtained using each of the transmitting antennas.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 1999Date of Patent: June 12, 2001Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Toyota Chuo KenkyushoInventors: Yoshikazu Asano, Shigeki Ohshima

Patent number: 6228308Abstract: A screw adapted for plasticizing a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin wherein screw lead (distance of the resin advancement in the direction of the axis per 1 revolution of the screw when it is postulated that the screw channel is 100% filled with the resin) of the screw in its compression section decreases in the direction toward the forward end of the screw. A plasticizing apparatus wherein such screw is mounted. A method for molding a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin by using such an apparatus. A molded article produced by such molding method. In the present invention, shear force of sufficient level can be obtained to avoid the formation of clumps while breakage of the reinforcing fibers is avoided to leave long fibers in the molded article. The resulting molded article has excellent mechanical properties, and such article is quite useful as a material for use in automobile parts and other parts.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 1999Date of Patent: May 8, 2001Assignees: Kawasaki Steel Corporation, Hitachi Metals, Ltd.Inventors: Kenichi Uehara, Shigeru Takano, Yoshikazu Asano, Masanori Amano

Patent number: 5276714Abstract: A MUSE sound decoder detects a broadcasting/non-broadcasting identification flag included in the control signals in an applied MUSE signal to determine whether the MUSE signal is broadcasted or non-broadcasted. The MUSE sound decoder further includes a frame synchronization protection circuit for protecting frame synchronization over a predetermined frame synchronization protection time period when the frame synchronization pattern is not detected at the proper timing. The frame synchronization protection circuit sets the frame synchronization protection time period to a long time period when the MUSE signal is determined to be a broadcasted MUSE signal, and to a short time period when the MUSE signal is determined to be a non-broadcasted MUSE signal. Appropriate muting of a sound signal can be carried out according to the condition of the received MUSE signal.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 1992Date of Patent: January 4, 1994Assignee: Sanyo Electric Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yoshihiro Hori, Kazuo Naganawa, Yoshikazu Asano, Yosuke Mizutani, Shuji Yanase

Patent number: 4949268Abstract: A land vehicle navigation system is adapted to display the present position of a vehicle by receiving signals from a combination of satellites under the global positioning navigation system. The present position of the vehicle is displayed on a screen, superposed over map data. To obtain the best global positioning data, the combination of satellites is selected in connectio with the visibility. To perform the positive reception of signals from the satellites as the vehicle is running in an urban area, data relating to the building height around the area can be obtained from a geographical information section including data indicative of the map and the building height distribution with respect to the area to determine the visibility.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 1988Date of Patent: August 14, 1990Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Toyota Chuo KenkyushoInventors: Kunitoshi Nishikawa, Mitoshi Fujimoto, Yoshikazu Asano

Patent number: 4853782Abstract: A frame synchronizing signal detecting circuit detects a frame synchronizing signal in a video signal. When the frame synchronizing signal is not detected by the frame synchronizing signal detecting circuit, a clamp level switching circuit is responsive to a switching signal from a timer circuit for generating alternately an upper clamp potential V.sub.+ and a lower clamp potential V.sub.-. When the frame synchronizing signal is detected by the frame synchronizing signal detecting circuit, the clamp level switching circuit generates a normal clamp potential V.sub.0. A clamping pulse generating circuit is responsive to an output from the frame synchronizing signal detecting circuit for generating a clamping pulse. A clamping circuit is responsive to the clamping pulse for clamping an analogue video signal at the clamp potentials V.sub.0, V.sub.+ or V.sub.- from the clamp level switching circuit.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 1988Date of Patent: August 1, 1989Assignee: Sanyo Electric Co.Inventors: Yoshikazu Asano, Kazuo Naganawa
