Patent number: 7152446Abstract: At the time for forming an internal gear from a raw material 2 of an internal gear, first, the raw material 2 is externally inserted onto a forming die 3 and fixed to the forming die 3 through a pressing die 4. Next, a forming roll 5 is moved in a direction as indicated by an arrow B of FIG. 6 while rotating the forming die 3. By this, the inner peripheral surface of the raw material 3 is pressed against an outer gear part 3b formed on the outer peripheral surface of the forming die 3 so that an internal gear part 1c is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the raw material 2. The rotating direction of the forming die 3 is selected such that the first end part of the outer gear part 3b located on the front side in the feeding direction of the forming roll 5 is moved ahead in the rotating direction (the direction as indicated by an arrow A of FIG. 6) of the second end part located on the rear side in the feeding direction of the forming roll 5.Type: GrantFiled: February 10, 2003Date of Patent: December 26, 2006Assignee: Toyoda Machine Works, Ltd.Inventors: Yukio Wada, Yasufumi Nakamura, Akinao Minegishi, Hirofumi Okuda

Patent number: 6030536Abstract: A method for easily decomposing viscous, solidified spilled fuel oil or crude oil containing sea water and other disposal inhibiting substances. Titanium dioxide particles are added to viscous spilled fuel oil recovered in drums in a weight ratio of at least 0.2 to 1 times. Fuel oil is specifically adsorbed by the adsorbent and the mixture can be suspended in water. The suspension is filtered by a coarse filter to remove substances interfering with disposal by the oil. This filtrate is passed through a high performance filter (of sufficiently fine mesh to retain the adsorbent) so that the adsorbent is recovered, and sea water and other substances are discarded.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 1998Date of Patent: February 29, 2000Assignee: Japan Cycle Nuclear Development InstituteInventors: Yukio Wada, Kazumasa Kosugi, Masaki Ozawa, Kaoru Sugawara, Hidechiyo Kashihara, Nobuyuki Sasao

Patent number: 5585043Abstract: In a method of coextracting neptunium and plutonium, a nitric acid solution containing a mixture of neptunium and plutonium is oxidized by irradiation of ultraviolet light. As a result, different valences of neptunium are adjusted all into the valence 6, which can remain in water, and in the meantime, valences of plutonium are adjusted into the valence 4 or 6, which can be extracted in the organic phase. It is therefore possible to coextract neptunium and plutonium without difficulty. The coextracted neptunium and plutonium can be used in forming mixed fuel by blending at least a portion of at least one of neptunium and plutonium which neptunium and plutonium have been formed by separating a nitric acid solution containing neptunium and plutonium by exposing the solution and a reducing agent to ultraviolet radiation to adjust the valences, and extracting the solution using an organic phase to extract plutonium from the solution into the organic phase.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 1994Date of Patent: December 17, 1996Assignee: Doryokuro Kakunenryo Kaihatsu JigyodanInventors: Yukio Wada, Kyoichi Morimoto, Takayuki Goibuchi, Hiroshi Tomiyasu

Patent number: 5465849Abstract: Particles contained in a suspension are separated in accordance with their magnetic susceptibility and based on the variation in flow velocity of suspension. In order to achieve this magnetic separation, a pair of wall plates having at least one flat surface in which a plurality of ferromagnetic narrow wires are buried in parallel are positioned in parallel to each other with a small distance therebetween so that the flat surfaces are opposed to each other to form a channel. The suspension flows in a laminar state with different flow velocities through the channel in the longitudinal direction of the ferromagnetic wires. A magnetic field is externally applied to the channel in the direction perpendicular both to the flow direction and the wall plates. Particles are separated in accordance with their magnetic susceptibility and based on variation in flow velocity which interacts with the magnetic susceptibility.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 1994Date of Patent: November 14, 1995Assignee: Doryokuro Kakunenryo Kaihatsu JigyodanInventors: Yukio Wada, Kazunori Yamamoto, Osami Tsukamoto, Takeshi Ohara, Chie Miyake, Sadao Mori

Patent number: 5343085Abstract: A power-on reset system comprises one-shot pulse generator for generating a one-shot pulse signal in response to a change in the power supply potential, a flip-flop to be set to operate by a one shot pulse signal and a timer to be activated by an output signal of said flip-flop operating as an enable signal for timing a given period of time. An output signal of said timer operates to reset the flip-flop so that the output of said flip-flop is utilized as a system reset signal. The timer includes an oscillator and a counter for counting oscillation signals. A voltage step-up means has an input responsive to the oscillation signals. With such an arrangement, the overall surface area of an LSI incorporating the system is minimized and a sufficiently long reset period is ensured for it.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 1993Date of Patent: August 30, 1994Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Takuya Fujimoro, Yukio Wada
