Patent number: 11007383Abstract: A measurement device includes a sensing portion and a measuring portion. The sensing portion contains at least a fluorescent material whose emitting of fluorescent light ceases due to an action of a radioactive beam. The measuring portion measures a radiation quantity of the radioactive beam, with which the sensing portion is irradiated, based on an amount of decrease in the intensity of the fluorescent light emitted by the fluorescent material contained in the sensing portion when the radioactive beam acts on at least a portion of the fluorescent material. The fluorescent light is emitted due to irradiation of the fluorescent material by an excitation source.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2019Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignees: Cancer Intelligence Care Systems, Inc., FUJIDENOLO CO., LTD.Inventors: Yoshio Imahori, Tsuyako Takeyoshi, Hideki Miyazaki, Shinsuke Kato, Norihide Takeuchi, Akari Sakuragi

Patent number: 10668153Abstract: A boron neutron capture therapy system has a neutron beam irradiation device, a patient restraint/placement portion, a three-dimensional diagnostic device, an irradiation table, a position adjustment mechanism, and a control unit. The boron neutron capture therapy system performs position determination with a sufficient degree of accuracy at the time of the boron neutron capture therapy. Further, the control unit, using the movement of the irradiation table, performs collision avoidance processing that changes the movement of the irradiation table before the patient restrained on the patient restraint/placement portion receives injury by colliding with the irradiation port, and thus, collision between the patient and the irradiation port can be avoided.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2018Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignees: Fujidenolo Co. Ltd., Cancer Intelligence Care Systems, Inc.Inventors: Tsuyako Takeyoshi, Masaru Nakamura, Yoshio Imahori, Hideki Miyazaki, Toshitaka Fujioka, Shinsuke Kato

Patent number: 7835532Abstract: By integrating plural condenser microphone constituting bodies in an array state, a condenser microphone array is obtained. The condenser microphone array is formed by dicing a laminate of a circuit board forming member, a housing forming member, a spacer forming member, diaphragm sheet, diaphragm plate forming member and a cover forming member which form a part of the plural condenser microphone constituting bodies respectively. In an air chamber of each condenser microphone constituting body constituted in the laminate, a back plate and a contact spring are built.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2006Date of Patent: November 16, 2010Assignee: Star Micronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kentaro Yonehara, Yoshio Imahori, Hiroshi Fujinami, Yasunori Tsukuda, Motoaki Ito

Patent number: 7835533Abstract: A circuit board forming member, a case forming member, a spacer forming member, a diaphragm sheet and a diaphragm plate forming member are laminated to form a portion, as excepting a back plate and a contact spring, of a condenser microphone, in plurality in a laminate. Moreover, the back plate and the contact spring are arranged in the air chamber, which is defined by the individual forming members, to form a plurality of condenser microphone constituents in the laminate. Next, the laminate is cut to separate the individual condenser microphone constituents thereby to manufacture the condenser microphones.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2006Date of Patent: November 16, 2010Assignee: Star Micronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kentaro Yonehara, Yoshio Imahori, Hiroshi Fujinami, Yasunori Tsukuda, Motoaki Ito

Patent number: 7447327Abstract: In an electroacoustic transducer, a pair of coil terminals elongating from a voice coil are electrically connected to a pair of terminal members attached to a frame via a flexible printed circuit board, respectively. According to the configuration, even in a case where an electroacoustic transducer is used at a high sound pressure, breakage of the coil terminals hardly occurs. In the flexible printed circuit board, the width of an intermediate portion is set to be smaller than the widths of an end portion on the side of the coil terminals and an end portion on the side of the terminal members. Therefore, the flexibility of the intermediate portion can be enhanced, whereby transmission of characteristic vibration of the flexible printed circuit board to a diaphragm, and stress concentration in the vicinity of the end portions are effectively suppressed.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2005Date of Patent: November 4, 2008Assignee: Star Micronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hajime Kitamura, Yoshio Imahori, Isao Fushimi

Publication number: 20080267439Abstract: A condenser microphone includes: a casing including a sound hole; a vibration film disposed in the casing so as to face the sound hole; a back plate disposed opposed to the vibration film; a spacer disposed between the vibration film and the back plate; and a hold member including a spring member. The back plate has an outer peripheral shape that is smaller than an inner peripheral shape of the casing so as to provide a clearance between an outer peripheral surface of the back plate and an inner peripheral surface of the casing. The back plate is held by the hold member from an opposite side of the vibration fills.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 25, 2007Publication date: October 30, 2008Applicant: STAR MICRONICS CO., LTD.Inventors: Kentaro YONEHARA, Yoshio IMAHORI, Yasunori Tsukuda, Motoaki ITO

Patent number: 7403631Abstract: The two coil spring terminals have the structure of double coil spring terminal including a small diameter coil spring terminal and a large diameter coil spring terminal. In this case, a terminal holder is provided with a clamping portion for clamping the large diameter coil spring terminal between the terminal holder and an internal circuit board. Specifically, the terminal holder is formed, in an upper end portion of its outer peripheral surface, with an annular groove which is adapted to be engaged with a small diameter portion formed in an upper end portion of the large diameter coil spring terminal. This omits fixation of the large diameter coil spring terminal to the internal circuit board, and necessity of soldering the two coil spring terminals respectively to the internal circuit board as a conventional art, enhancing mounting workability of the terminal holder.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2005Date of Patent: July 22, 2008Assignee: Star Micronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Norihiro Sawamoto, Hiromi Yamada, Yoshio Imahori, Yasunori Tsukuda

Patent number: 7346182Abstract: A diaphragm subassembly comprises a voice coil, a diaphragm, a frame, and a pair of terminal members. A magnetic circuit unit comprises a yoke, a magnet, and a base. The diaphragm subassembly and the magnetic circuit unit are accommodated in a bottomed cylindrical cover. In the manufacturing process, the cover is placed with the open end directed upward. The diaphragm subassembly, the yoke, the magnet, and the base are dropped into the cover in this order. The manufacturing process of a dynamic electroacoustic transducer is thereby simplified.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2003Date of Patent: March 18, 2008Assignee: Star Micronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Tomoyuki Sato, Yoshio Imahori
