32 results about "Meridional direction" patented technology

Meridional means "along a longitudinal circle" (a.k.a. meridian) or "in the north–south direction" Meridional flow is a general air flow pattern from north to south, or from south to north, along the Earth's longitude lines (perpendicular to a zonal flow).

Golf ball

A ball body is formed with a mold having upper and lower mold half. Dimples 16 having a shape inverted from the shape of the pimples of the mold are formed on the ball body. The dimples 16 in the vicinity of the equatorial line have a size in the meridional direction D1 being greater than a size in the latitudinal direction D2. The difference between the size in the meridional direction D1 and the size in the latitudinal direction D2 is 0.01 mm or greater and 0.50 mm or less. By grinding the ball body in the vicinity of the equatorial line, a flash generated on the seam resulting form the mold is removed. According to the grinding, the size in the meridional direction of the dimple 16 is reduced, and thus, plane shape of the dimple becomes closer to a perfect circle.

Time-resolved multicolor single-energy X-ray imaging spectrometer

InactiveCN103234987ARealization of Multicolor Single Energy X-ray ImagingImprove spatial resolutionMaterial analysis by transmitting radiationHigh energyObject point
The invention relates to a time-resolved multicolor single-energy X-ray imaging spectrometer comprising a spherical objective lens on a meridional direction and n spherical objective lenses sequentially arranged on a sagittal direction, wherein n is an integer larger than 1. n channels are imaged based on a Kirkpatrick-Baez (KB) structure. X-ray emitted by an object point is reflected by the spherical objective lens on the meridional direction, such that a one-dimensional image is formed; and through the reflection of the n spherical objective lenses sequentially arranged on the sagittal direction, a two-dimensional image of n channels is formed on an image plane. Compared with prior art, the multicolor single-energy X-ray imaging spectrometer provided by the invention has higher spatial resolution than existing MMI and bent crystal imaging technology, and higher light collection efficiency than existing MMI and GMXI. Therefore, the spectrometer is suitable for self-luminous imaging diagnosis with low X-ray yield. Especially, the spectrometer can be used on a kJ-level intense laser device at high energy section area or with low energy.

Eye refractive power measurement apparatus

InactiveUS20110128498A1Specific retardationRefractometersSkiascopesMeasurement deviceMeridional direction
An eye refractive power measurement apparatus includes a measurement optical system, a calculator and an output unit. The measurement optical system projects measurement light onto a fundus of an examinee's eye, extracts the measurement light reflected on the fundus as ring-shaped light, and causes an imaging device to capture a ring-shaped image. The calculator measures eye refractive power of the examinee's eye, based on the ring-shaped image captured by the imaging device, specifies a position of the ring-shaped image to calculate a measured line of the image, performs approximate processing on the measured line to calculate an approximate curve, and calculates a displacement between the measured line and the approximate curve in a meridian direction for each divided region. The output unit outputs a measurement result of the eye refractive power and a calculation result of the displacement in each divided region.

Pneumatic tires with carcass anchored by bead wire reinforcing layer

A pneumatic tire comprises a carcass made from at least one cord array comprised of many arch portions of a cord extending between a pair of bead portions in a meridional direction and arranged over a full circumference of the tire at an equal interval P in a circumferential direction of the tire and many circumferential portions of the cord alternately arranged in the bead portions, each connecting ends of adjacent arch portions to each other in the bead portion and extending substantially in the circumferential direction. In this case, the cord array is arranged at n layers (n is an integer of 2 or more) while offsetting these layers by a distance L obtained by dividing the interval P by n in the circumferential direction. Further, the bead wire reinforcing layer is arranged outward from the overlap region of the circumferential portions in the radial direction so as to sandwich the cord array from both sides thereof.

Provided is an imaging optical system which comprises, sequentially from the object side to the image surface side, a first lens having a positive power, a second lens which is a meniscus lens having a convex surface on the image side, a third lens having a positive power, and a fourth lens having a negative power. The power of the third lens in the vicinity of the principal ray in the meridional direction is positive in the paraxial area, and is negative in an area distant from the optical axis. The power of the fourth lens in the vicinity of the principal ray in the meridional direction is negative in the paraxial area, and is positive in an area distant from the optical axis. The first lens is provided with diffraction gratings on the image side surface. If it is assumed that the focal length of the second lens is f2, the resultant focal length of the imaging optical system is fT, and the distance between the aperture stop or the apex of the object side surface of the first lens, whichever is closer to the object side, and the image surface is TTL, the following formulae are satisfied; |f 2 / f T | >= 3 (1) TTL / f T <= 1.2 (2).

Pneumatic tire

A pneumatic radial tire has a carcass structure, a belt structure, and a tread. The belt structure has at least two plies of reinforcing cords, the cords in the at least two plies being inclined at angles greater than 5° relative to the tire centerline. The cords in the belt plies are inclined at equal but opposite directions relative to the tire centerline. The belt plies have a stiffness variation in the circumferential and meridional directions of the belt plies wherein the stiffness variation is in the range of 12 to 25% between a radially outermost belt ply and a radially innermost belt ply.

Imaging device

An imaging device includes an imaging optical system, an image sensor, and an optical fiber bundle including optical fibers to guide light from the system to the sensor. The optical fiber bundle includes an optical fibers first and second pair, each pair having two optical fibers that are adjacent in a meridional direction. In the first and second pair of optical fibers, a first value, which is a value representing a ratio of a distance component in the meridional direction between the optical fibers centers along a light-exit surface to a distance component in the meridional direction between optical fibers centers along a light-incident surface, is greater than one. The optical fibers second pair is located farther from an optical system optical axis than the optical fibers first pair. The first value in the optical fibers second pair is greater than the first value in the optical fibers first pair.
