Title: Hiroto Nakajima: Inventor of Flow and Pressure Sensor Technologies

Introduction

Hiroto Nakajima is an inventor based in Tsukubamirai, Japan. His work includes inventions related to ultrasonic flow sensing and pressure measurement. He is associated with SMC Corporation and is named on 2 patents.

Latest Patents

Nakajima’s listed patents address sensor design and fluid control.

- **Ultrasonic flow sensor.** This invention uses a body assembly that houses an ultrasonic element, with clamp assemblies positioned at opposite ends. The clamp assemblies are supported so they can move perpendicular to the housing’s bottom surface, which contacts the tube.

- **Pressure sensor and shock mitigating member.** This invention includes a joint portion and a shock-mitigating member with a flow path connected to a branch path. Its design directs fluid through a first flow path, blocks direct linear flow, and guides the fluid through a second path in a different direction. Outlets connect to the second path, while a gap between the member and joint portion helps adjust fluid pressure.
