Title: Akihiro Miyamoto: Innovator in Transmission Technology
Introduction
Akihiro Miyamoto is a notable inventor based in Nagoya, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of transmission technology, holding 2 patents that showcase his innovative approach to engineering.
Latest Patents
Miyamoto's latest patents include a transmission synchronizer designed to effectively lower the peak value of the operation load during synchronization. This invention features a coupling sleeve, synchro hub, balk ring, and clutch gear. The synchronizing support force generating mechanism converts a circumferential force induced by relative rotation into an axially applied synchronizing support force, pressing the balk ring against the clutch gear. Additionally, a relative rotation regulating structure is incorporated to manage the amount of relative rotation between the balk ring and the synchro hub when in neutral.
Another significant patent is a synchronizer for a transmission, which includes a synchronizer hub and a synchronizer sleeve that engages with a clutch gear. This design features sleeve spline teeth with chamfers and a synchro ring with pairs of spline teeth, where the leading edge of the chamfer is offset from the center of each spline tooth. This innovative arrangement enhances the efficiency of the synchronizer mechanism.
