Patent number: 9562504Abstract: A fuel pump for a direct injection internal combustion engine having a housing defining a pump chamber. Driven and idler toothed gears are rotatably mounted within the pump chamber so that the driven and idler gears are in mesh with each other at a predetermined location in the pump chamber. A fluid inlet is formed through the housing and open to an inlet subchamber in the pump chamber. A fluid outlet is also formed through the housing and open to an outlet subchamber in the pump chamber. A pressure relief passageway fluidly connects the inlet subchamber to the outlet subchamber and a valve is disposed in series with the pressure relief passageway. A control circuit controls the actuation of the valve to control the pump pressure at the pump outlet.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2012Date of Patent: February 7, 2017Assignee: Hitachi, LtdInventors: Yosuke Tanabe, Jason Abbas, George Saikalis

Publication number: 20160315852Abstract: A control apparatus sets, in a relay device: first control information that forwards, when a packet for flooding is received by a representative port of a trunk, the packet to a prescribed forwarding destination port and to a representative port of another trunk; second control information that executes, when the packet for flooding is received by a nonrepresentative port of the truck, forwarding of the packet to a stack link port associated with the same trunk group as the trunk of the port that received the packet for flooding, and forwarding to a nonrepresentative port of another trunk in the trunk group; and third control information that forwards, when the packet for flooding is received by the stack link port, the packet to a prescribed forwarding destination port and to a representative port of a trunk not belonging to the same trunk group.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 18, 2014Publication date: October 27, 2016Inventors: Yosuke TANABE, Masanori TAKASHIMA

Patent number: 9309849Abstract: A method to reduce engine noise in a multi-cylinder direct injection internal combustion engine. The internal combustion engine includes a high pressure fuel pump having both an inlet valve fluidly connected to a fuel source and an outlet valve typically connected to a pressurized fuel rail. In order to reduce engine noise, especially at low engine speeds, the timing of the opening of either the fuel pump inlet valve or fuel pump outlet valve is varied so that it coincides with the opening of the fuel injectors.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2011Date of Patent: April 12, 2016Assignee: Hitachi, LtdInventors: Yosuke Tanabe, Donald J. McCune

Publication number: 20140314603Abstract: A fuel pump having a housing which defines a pump chamber with an inlet and an outlet. A piston is reciprocally mounted in the pump chamber. An inlet valve is mounted fluidly in series between the pump chamber and the housing inlet which opens and closes the inlet in synchronism with the reciprocation of the piston. A rotary valve is mounted fluidly in series with the housing outlet and the rotary outlet valve is rotatably driven in synchronism with reciprocation of the piston. The rotary valve is configured so that it is fluidly open only at one or more predetermined angular positions of the rotary outlet valve. The open and close timings of the rotary inlet and outlet valves are completely controlled by a motor in order to control the fuel pressure, especially to avoid excessive fuel compression and resulting fuel pressure fluctuation.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 23, 2013Publication date: October 23, 2014Applicant: Hitachi.

Publication number: 20140158205Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling a solenoid actuated inlet valve to a pump chamber of a piston pump. A control circuit energizes the solenoid to open the inlet valve in synchronism with the reciprocation of the piston and thereafter de-energize the solenoid to initiate closure of the inlet valve. The inlet valve is decelerated following de-energization of the solenoid thus effectively reducing engine noise attributable to the inlet valve.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 11, 2012Publication date: June 12, 2014Inventors: Yosuke Tanabe, Donald J. McCune

Publication number: 20130259044Abstract: Even though the number of communication terminals or that of communication services exploited by the communication terminals is increased, load imposed on a node or a controller is to be less likely to be increased, while delay in processing is to be less likely to be produced. Each node of a communication system holds a plurality of packet handling operations which correlate the forwarding destination of a packet belonging to each flow with a set of collation rules that identify each flow, and forwards the received packet in accordance with the processing rules. In case the destination address of the received packet is such address indicating that the packet is to be multicast, the node multicasts the packet using the plurality of the processing rules the node holds.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2011Publication date: October 3, 2013Applicant: NEC CORPORATIONInventor: Yosuke Tanabe

Patent number: 8485310Abstract: Silencing equipment provided with one or more flow channels through which cooling air flows has a flow channel forming member that forms the flow channel, and an acoustic absorbent member that is fixed to the flow channel forming member. A resonance type silencer is formed on a wall surface of the flow channel by providing a cavity for the resonance type silencer in the acoustic absorbent member and an aperture for the resonance type silencer in a portion of the flow channel forming member. The resonance type silencer sets a frequency of noise necessary to be reduced based on a peak frequency of noise generated by a fan. The silencing equipment further has a slide member which slides by a slide mechanism to adjust the area of the top of the aperture. The silencing equipment for electronic devices capable of cooling heat generating sections thereof with air has a small and simple structure and can improve a silencing effect by blowing air.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2011Date of Patent: July 16, 2013Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Yosuke Tanabe, Masanori Watanabe, Akira Goto, Shigeyasu Tsubaki, Masahiko Usui, Akio Idei

Publication number: 20130083929Abstract: A method for analyzing sound transmission paths in a system from a sound source to a receiver in which the all sound paths are first identified from the sound source to the receiver. These sound paths include both structure-borne sound paths and air-borne sound paths. The transfer function from each path to the receiver is measured in terms of particle velocity vector by using a particle velocity sensor or a set of sound pressures by using a microphone array. The load at each path is directly measured or indirectly estimated in the actual source operation. The load at each path is multiplied by the transfer function from the path to the receiver, which represents the contribution of the path to the response at the receiver.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2011Publication date: April 4, 2013Applicant: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Akira Inoue, Yosuke Tanabe

Patent number: 8091682Abstract: Disclosed herein is a sound absorbing system used for an electronic device that has enhanced noise reduction capabilities, while maintaining the cooling performance of the device and without increasing the size of the device. A disk array has multiple fans installed on each of the right and left sides of its front section. A frame that houses a sound absorbing system is placed in the middle of an airflow path through which air passes from the fans. Two sound absorbers are arranged inside the frame such that each of the sound absorbers faces the right-side or left-side fans. Airflow paths through which air passes from the fans are located in the space between the two sound absorbers. The airflow paths are partitioned by an acoustic board such that each of the airflow paths does not have parallel side faces. The frame, the sound absorbers, the acoustic board, and the airflow paths constitute the sound absorbing system.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2010Date of Patent: January 10, 2012Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Genta Yamauchi, Naoki Wada, Masanori Watanabe, Yosuke Tanabe, Kouichirou Kinoshita
