Title: Katsuya Usami - Innovator in Transformer Modules and Motor-Driven Compressors
Introduction
Katsuya Usami is an inventive mind based in Kariya-shi, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the fields of transformer modules and motor-driven compressors. Although he currently holds no granted patents, his innovative ideas are reflected in his latest patent applications.
Latest Patent Applications
One of Usami's notable applications is for a **TRANSFORMER MODULE**. This transformer module includes multiple lead terminals, each featuring a bent portion that aligns with a substrate and a joint portion extending along the substrate. The design incorporates lands arranged in parallel on the substrate, which consist of an enlarged land and standard lands. The joint portions of the lead terminals, which are adjacent to each other and share the same electric potential, are soldered to the enlarged land via a solder layer. Each joint portion is also soldered to one of the standard lands through corresponding solder layers. The enlarged land is formed by connecting the standard lands, which are intended for soldering the lead terminals, in the parallel arrangement direction.
Another significant application is for a **MOTOR-DRIVEN COMPRESSOR**. This invention features an inverter that includes a circuit board with an electronic component mounted on it. The housing of the compressor consists of a motor housing member that defines a suction chamber and an inverter housing member that creates an inverter accommodating chamber. A partition wall separates these two chambers. The electronic component is designed to remove noise and is strategically positioned so that its main body faces the outer peripheral surface of the motor housing member in a radial direction of the rotary shaft. Notably, the projected area of the main body onto the circuit board in the axial direction is smaller than its projected area onto the outer peripheral surface of the motor housing member in the radial direction.
Conclusion
Katsuya Usami is an innovative inventor whose latest patent applications showcase his expertise in transformer modules and motor-driven compressors. His work reflects a commitment to advancing technology in these fields.
