    Abstract: A signal acquisition unit (2020) acquires a signal. From the signal acquired by the signal acquisition unit (2020), a detection signal extraction unit (2060) extracts, as a detection signal, a signal of any frequency band among a plurality of partial detection frequency bands into which the frequency band that is the subject of detection has been divided. A determination unit (2070) determines, in order, for each detection signal corresponding to each of the different partial detection frequency bands, whether the detection signal shows any leakage, and if at least a prescribed number of the detection signals are not showing any leakage, determines that leakage is not taking place.

    Abstract: Provided are a vibration detector and a vibration detecting method, which are power saving, can detect vibration even if the vibration is very weak, and can perform both start-up of the apparatus and collection of data of vibration information by the use of only one sensor. The apparatus includes a vibration detector, a semiconductor switch, a controller and a power supply. The semiconductor switch and the controller are connected to the power supply. The vibration detector detects vibration and consequently generates a vibration voltage. The semiconductor switch includes a voltage divider for generating a bias voltage inside. The semiconductor switch detects a voltage produced by superposing the bias voltage onto the vibration voltage outputted from the vibration detector, and conducts current when the detected voltage is equal to or larger than a certain value. The controller wakes up with the current conducted by the semiconductor switch as a trigger signal.

    Abstract: Each functional configuring unit of a leak inspection device (2000) operates in the manner that follows. A vibration acquisition unit (2020) acquires a signal indicating tubing vibrations or vibrations propagated from tubing. A filtering unit (2040) extracts a signal of a predetermined frequency band from the signal acquired by the vibration acquisition unit (2020). A characteristic value extraction unit (2060) splits the signal extracted by the filtering unit (2040) into predetermined time intervals, calculates for each split signal the absolute value of each extreme value of the magnitude of the signal, performs for each split signal a statistical process with respect to the calculated plurality of absolute values, and considers values calculated by the statistical process to be characteristic values. A leak determination unit (2080) considers inspection results to indicate the presence of a leak when a determination index value stipulated using the characteristic values is greater than a predetermined threshold.

    Abstract: A piezoelectric vibration sensor includes a piezoelectric element which is in a form of flat plate, an element holding plate which is in a form of flat plate, and first and second support members. An electrode is arranged on at least one plane of the piezoelectric element. The piezoelectric element is joined to one plane of the piezoelectric element. The first support member and the second support member support the piezoelectric element and the element holding plate. A vibration film activates vibration of the element holding plate between the first support member and the second support member. Moreover, the element holding plate is joined to each of the first support member and the second support member through the vibration film. As a result, it is possible to obtain high sensitivity in a wide frequency range and to withstand an impact which is added from the outside.
