In 1939, these two companies, leaders in their respective fields, merged to form an integrated electric equipment manufacturer, Not surprisingly, Toshiba’s role as a leading innovator and Tokyo Shibaura Denki (Tokyo Shibaura Electric Co., Ltd.).

In 1875, Tanaka Seizo-sho (Tanaka Engineering Works), Japan’s first manufacturer of telegraphic equipment, was Today, Toshiba’s total commitment to people and to the future, its established.

Under the name Shibaura Seisaku-sho (Shibaura progress continues within the world community finds its origins in Engineering Works), his company became one of Japan’s largest the life stories of Hisashige Tanaka and Ichisuke Fujioka. manufacturers of heavy electrical apparatus. HISAHIGE TANAKA (1799-1881) was a remarkable man. He was a technology pioneer who came from the rich Japanese tradition of creating karakuri or mechanisms that tease, trick or take a person by surprise. For instance, there is a mechanised tortoise that serves sake by carrying the cup on its back and a bird that chirps while moving its beak, head and wings. The arrow-shooting boy or Yumi-iri Doji is his most famous innovation in this field. Hisahige’s greatest achievements were made in mechanics, lighting, clock making and telegraphy. Other important inventions included a water pump for fighting fires, a machine for irrigating rice paddies and fields, Japan’s first artificial ice maker, a device called the “keyless lock” and a sophisticated new machine for manufacturing Kurume-gasuri kimono fabric. Hisahige not only invented his own devices, he also developed and adapted new, imported technologies such as air pressure, steam engines and telegraphs. This great inventor was one of the grandfathers of Japanese technological innovation. He employed and mentored engineers who went on to found major Japanese technology companies such as Oki Denki (Oki Electric) and Anritsu. The company which he founded in 1875, Tanaka Seisakusho, was established to support Japan’s growing telegraph network. The company continued after his death and, following a name change in 1904 and a merger in 1939, what started out as Tanaka Seisakusho became one half of Tokyo Shibaura Denki. Since 1978, Tokyo Shibaura Denki has been known as Toshiba. 1. Man-nen Jimeisho (chronometer) 2. Hoji-ki (time signal instrument) belongs to the collection of the Communications Museum 3.

There is a map of Japan and a planetarium on the top of the clock. The wizard of invention and the warrior of innovation ICHISUKE FUJIOKA (1857-1918) was an entrepreneur with a brilliant academic background. The son of a samurai, he was one of the first graduates of the Kogakuryo (the Imperial College of Engineering) to join the faculty as a professor. Electricity was his passion, but a meeting with Thomas Edison in America in 1884 had made him realize that delivering electric power supply was not enough. He also needed to produce and sell the appliances that ran on electricity. He returned to Tokyo and, in 1885, he designed the first locally built electric generator before leaving academic research to work in industry. In 1890, he launched a company called Hakunetsusha and began serious work on the manufacture of light bulbs. Ichisuke Fujioka was an influential man. He is credited with advising the textile manufacturer Osaka Boseki to install electric lights. This enabled them to operate a night shift and boost productivity. The principles of innovation that he laid down for his company included a strong commitment to research and development. By 1940, the research department had made two key advances in light bulb technology: the dual filament bulb and the frosted bulb, both of which were copied throughout the world. Hakunetsusha changed its name and form until it merged with Hisahige Tanaka’s company in 1939 to become Tokyo Shibaura Denki. Since 1978, Tokyo Shibaura Denki has been known as Toshiba. 1.

    Status Report – ABWR (GEH, HGNE and Toshiba) USA and Japan DATE (2019/11/12) This reactor design is an evolution from the previous ABWR, of which 4 units are operating in Japan [https://pris.iaea.org/PRIS/CountryStatistics/CountryDetails.aspx?current=JP], 5 units are under construction in Japan and Taiwan [https://pris.iaea.org/PRIS/CountryStatistics/CountryDetails.aspx?current=TW], and 4 units with a projected start of construction in 2030s. The reference plant is [Kashiwazaki Kariwa Unit No.7 https://pris.iaea.org/PRIS/CountryStatistics/ReactorDetails.aspx?current=384] and has a net power output of 1,315 MWe. INTRODUCTION Indicate which booklet(s): [ 〆 ] Large WCR [ ] SMR [ ] FR The design of the advanced boiling water reactor (ABWR) represents a complete design for a nominal 1350 MWe power plant. The inclusion of such features as reactor internal pumps, fine motion control rod drives, multiplexed digital fiber-optic control systems, and an advanced control room are examples of the type of advancements over previous designs that have been incorporated to meet the ABWR objectives. The ABWR design objectives include: 60 year plant life from full power operating license date, 87% or greater plant availability, less than one unplanned scram per year, 24 month refueling interval, personnel radiation exposure limit of 100 man-rem/year, core damage frequency of less than 10-5/ reactor year, limiting significant release frequency to 10-6/reactor year, and reduced radwaste generation. The principal design criteria governing the ABWR standard plant encompass two basic categories of requirements: those related to either a power generation function or a safety related function.
