Title: Innovations of Yoshihiro Kashoji

Introduction

Yoshihiro Kashoji is a notable inventor based in Shizuoka, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of igniter technology, holding a total of 2 patents. His work reflects a commitment to enhancing the functionality and safety of ignition systems.

Latest Patents

Kashoji's latest patents include an innovative igniter design. This igniter is activated by the rotation of an actuator, allowing for ignition to be disabled simply by rotating the actuator in its initial or non-used state. The design ensures that the ignition lock can be released during a series of igniting actions without hindering the automatic return of the igniter to its locked state. This feature enhances the operability of the igniter significantly. The igniter is equipped with an actuator mechanism that performs the igniting operation on a valve mechanism, controlling the gas supply from a reservoir to a gas nozzle. The actuator mechanism consists of a rotatable actuator, a fulcrum member for rotation, and an interlocking member that operates a piezoelectric unit. The igniting operation involves rotating the actuator in one direction and performing an auxiliary operation in the opposite direction, with the mechanism automatically returning to its initial state.
