Latest Patents
One of Umezawa's latest inventions is a flow rate measurement device and method. This device is designed to measure the flow rate of gas within a pipeline. It features an ultrasonic transducer that is in contact with the pipeline, along with a flow rate calculation component that determines the gas flow rate based on ultrasonic wave reception. The ultrasonic transducer includes an oscillation part that emits ultrasonic waves and a reception part that captures them. Notably, the oscillation part has a focusing feature that directs the ultrasonic waves toward the center of the pipeline.
Another significant patent is a torque measurement device and program. This invention aims to enhance the accuracy of identifying the positions of reflectors attached to a rotating body. The device utilizes a pair of reflectors on the rotating surface, which are spaced axially. It captures reflected light data from these reflectors, allowing for the determination of a point that minimizes the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) for the reflected light model. This process enables the calculation of the twist amount of the rotating body, leading to a more precise torque measurement.
