Abstract: The invention relates to a method for monitoring the pressure in a device for the pneumatic adjustment of a seat in a transportation means, in particular in a motor vehicle. The device comprises a plurality of cushions (101, 102, . . . , 105) which are able to be filled with air and which are connected via respective valves (201, 202, . . . , 205) to a common preliminary pressure volume (3), wherein a pressure sensor (4) is provided for measuring the pressure (p) in the preliminary pressure volume (3) and the preliminary pressure volume (3) is coupled to a compressor (6) for supplying compressed air without a non-return valve being connected therebetween. For the purpose of monitoring the pressure in a respective cushion (101, 102, . . . , 105), a predefined pressure is set in the preliminary pressure volume by way of operation of the compressor (6) and/or by way of air discharge from the preliminary pressure volume (3) via at least one leak, with the valve (201, 202, . . . , 205) between the respective cushion (101, 102, . . . , 105) and the preliminary pressure volume (3) closed, wherein the predefined pressure deviates from a target pressure (p1, p2, . . . , p5) in the respective cushion (101, 102, . . . , 105) by at most 10% of the target pressure and/or at most 50 hPa. After the setting of the predefined pressure, the valve (101, 102, . . . , 105) between the respective cushion (101, 102, . . . , 105) and the preliminary pressure volume (3) is opened and the pressure in the preliminary pressure volume (3) is measured via the pressure sensor (4). If the measured pressure (p) deviates from the target pressure (p1, p2, . . . , p5), the measured pressure (p) is set to the target pressure (p1, p2, . . . , p5) by way of operation of the compressor (6) and/or by way of air discharge from the preliminary pressure volume (3) via the at least one leak.

Abstract: A zero-strain soil pressure sensor includes a shell provided with a hydraulic oil cavity and a cavity located below the hydraulic oil cavity, a processor, an outer elastic film arranged at the upper end of the hydraulic oil cavity, an inner elastic film arranged between the hydraulic oil cavity and the cavity, an outer strain bridge circuit connected with the outer elastic film, an inner strain bridge circuit connected with the inner elastic film, a piston communicated with the hydraulic oil cavity, and a driving mechanism connected with the piston. The outer strain bridge circuit, the inner strain bridge circuit and the driving mechanism are electrically connected with the processor. The invention has the beneficial effect that the piston is driven by the driving mechanism to control the oil pressure in the hydraulic oil cavity, external soil pressure is balanced through the oil pressure to keep the outer elastic film in an non-deforming state all the time, and only the inner elastic film is deformed, so that the soil arch effect and soil displacement are avoided, and thus the liquid pressure measured by the inner elastic film is the soil pressure, and the measurement result is more accurate.

Abstract: A technique facilitates measurement of forces resulting from a variety of loads, stresses, temperatures, or other sources. In an embodiment, the system comprises a load cell constructed with channels extending into a component which may be subjected to forces. Sensors cooperate with the channels to detect changes in volume of the channels as an indicator of the forces acting on the component. In some applications, the channels enclose a liquid, and the sensors comprise pressure sensors which detect changes in pressure within the liquid due to the volumentric changes in the channels. The system also may comprise a compensation system which compensates for external influences, such as temperatures and hydrostatic pressures.

Abstract: A seat portion includes a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer that are stacked sequentially from the surface side to the inner side of the seat portion. The second layer has a higher stiffness than the third layer, and the first layer has a lower stiffness than the third layer. A pressure sensitive part has a pressure sensitive-part body arranged between the first layer and the second layer.

Abstract: Certain embodiments provide a system and method for measurement of the force applied to a bone-conduction oscillator during application to a subject, resolving the measured force relative to a pre-determined criteria, and providing an indication to the user to specify whether an external force applied to an applied force indication system coupled with a bone-conduction oscillator is within a pre-determined acceptable range. A mechanical arrangement is prescribed which allows the full extent of the force applied to be represented onto the pressure measurement apparatus. The system and apparatus may be applied onto or integrated into bone-conduction oscillators.

Abstract: The invention relates to an optical sensor device comprising a reference body, an optical fiber including an intrinsic fiber optic sensor, and a hydraulic transmission system. The hydraulic transmission system is connected to the reference body such that an input portion and an output portion are movable with respect to the reference body. The optical fiber is connected with a first connecting portion to the output portion of the hydraulic transmission system and with a second connecting portion to an element exterior to the hydraulic transmission system. The intrinsic sensor is positioned between the first and second connecting portion. The input portion is arranged for receiving an input action and the hydraulic transmission system is arranged for converting the input action to a sensing action applied to the optical fiber by the output portion such as to modify strain in the optical fiber dependent on said input action.
