Title: Masayasu Kawai: Innovator in Torque Measurement Technology
Introduction
Masayasu Kawai is a prominent inventor based in Tokyo, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of torque measurement technology, holding a total of 3 patents. His work has been instrumental in advancing the accuracy and efficiency of torque measurement devices.
Latest Patents
Kawai's latest patents include a torque transducer and a torque measuring device. The torque transducer utilizes phase differences generated between pairs of rotating and stationary members mounted on the drive and load sides of a torque transmission shaft. These phase differences are converted into relative opening amounts produced by slits formed in the respective members. The opening amounts are detected by two transducers and converted into electric signals, allowing for precise measurement of the torque transmitted to the shaft.
Another notable patent is a load cell with a base plate. This load cell features a load sensing section formed by a rigid load introduction section, a rigid load support section, and a strain sensing section. The base plate includes a neck and two parallel plate-shaped rigid sections, with one part integrated with the load sensing section. Strain gauges mounted on the strain sensing section detect the load applied to the load introduction section, converting the measured load into an electrical quantity.
