With a total of 2 patents to his name, Shiigi's work showcases his innovative approach to engineering challenges.

Latest Patents

One of Hiroki Shiigi's latest patents is the bi-directional overrunning clutched differential unit. This invention features a pair of coaxial hubs that are relatively unrotatably fitted on respective coaxial output shafts. These hubs are relatively rotatably inserted into a cage that holds rollers. The design includes a pair of second bearings that journal a clutch housing disposed around the cage, which is diametrically larger than a pair of first bearings journaling the respective hubs. These second bearings are positioned between the first bearings in the axial direction of the output shafts. Additionally, an axial end portion of the cage and the second bearing on the same axial side are distanced from the first bearing on the same axial side, creating a space for a friction mechanism that applies frictional rotation resistance onto the cage.
