Publication number: 20230332983Abstract: A tire state determination system (100) acquires, from a vehicle (50), state data that includes various types of information that may exert influence on deterioration of a base body portion of a tire (1), and calculates an evaluation value S that indicates a state of the base body portion of the tire (1), based on the acquired state data. This allows an inspector who inspects an applicability to a base tire, to preliminarily grasp, as a material for determining whether it can be used as the base tire, the state of the base body portion of the tire.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 20, 2022Publication date: October 19, 2023Applicant: Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Masaki TERAMOTO, Kazuharu TANIMURA, Yukinori HASHIMOTO, Takahiro NISHIMOTO, Kenji YONEDA

Patent number: 8414177Abstract: A planar light emitting device (PLED) includes: a light guide plate (LGP) having upper/lower surfaces; a light source substrate (LSS) mounted with a point light source parallel with a side end of the LGP; a first chassis covering a back of the LSS and a lower surface of the LGP in parallel; and a second chassis having an emission opening; a light source member in a side surface of the PLED; and a fixing member on the side of the PLED with an inclined portion. The inclined portion of the fixing member is formed so pressing the fixing member moves the LGP toward the LSS, which is fixed between the side end of the LGP and the first chassis. Removing the fixing member forms a gap between the LSS and the side end surface of the LGP or the first chassis, and the LSS can exit the LSS take-out portion.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 2010Date of Patent: April 9, 2013Assignee: NLT Technologies, Ltd.Inventor: Yukinori Hashimoto

Patent number: 8373822Abstract: A surface emitting device includes a light guide plate having a light outgoing surface and a reflection surface and an LED light source that includes an LED element provided so that light from the LED element enters the light guide plate through a light incoming end surface of the light guide plate. The light guide plate includes a concave portion corresponding to the LED element on a side of the reflection surface just in front of the LED light source. The concave portion has dimensions in which a width of the light guide plate is equal to or larger than a width of a light outgoing surface of the LED element, and a depth from the reflection surface in a thickness direction of the light guide plate is set so that the concave portion does not overlap with a region opposed to the light outgoing surface of the LED element.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2010Date of Patent: February 12, 2013Assignee: NLT Technologies, Ltd.Inventor: Yukinori Hashimoto
