Latest Patents
Usui is credited with 1 patent: “Teaching Method for Loading Arm for Objects to Be Processed.” The method teaches relative positions to a loading arm by manually moving it near selected support portions of a boat, including the uppermost and lowermost portions and at least one intermediate portion. The three-dimensional coordinates of those selected portions are stored, and the coordinates of the remaining portions are derived from the stored values. This approach is designed to determine support locations accurately, including when the boat has become deformed.
