摘要:
The invention concerns a gas analyzer comprising: a measuring volume (2), a radiation source (1) for providing a beam to pass said measuring volume; a heat sink (16) for said radiation source; at least one thermal detector (3) having a hot junction within a support structure and receiving the radiation and a cold junction for reference within the same support structure and protected from said radiation; at least one optical bandpass filter (9) between said hot junction and said radiation source; and a thermal mass (11), which is formed of a material having high thermal conductance. The thermal mass has a cavity with a bottom step (34) and a rim (32), and a first length therebetween. The support structure has a frontal edge (35) and a base plate lip (33), and a second length therebetween. There is a radial gap between the thermal mass and the support structure. Press means urge said support structure in the cavity, whereupon a more efficient thermal contact is either between said frontal edge and said bottom step, or between said base plate lip and said rim. A first thermal barrier (17) is between the heat sink and the thermal mass, and a second thermal barrier (22) surrounds the thermal mass. A shield (19) formed of a material having high thermal conductance covers said second thermal barrier and is in thermal contact with said heat sink.

A paramagnetic oxygen sensor and method employs a pressure sensor having a membrane extending through an air gap for a magnetic field. A piezoelectric element is mounted on the membrane. Gas chambers are formed on either side of the membrane. The gas mixture, the properties of which are to be measured, is supplied to one of the chambers. A reference gas is applied to the other chamber. A pulsating magnetic field is provided across the air gap and through the chambers containing the gas mixture and reference gas. The differing responses of the gas mixture and reference gas to the magnetic field deflect the membrane. The deflection of the membrane is sensed by the piezoelectric element. The piezoelectric element maybe operated either in a passive mode or active mode to sense the deflection of the membrane.

A thermopile sensor for detecting infrared radiation arriving in an axial entering direction. The thermopile sensor comprises a metal housing that has a base section and a mantle section, a cavity between said mantle section and said base section, an opening in said mantle section opposite said base section for entering of said infrared radiation, thermopile chip on a top surface of the base section, electrical connectors connected to said thermopile chip(s) and which extending through said metal, and a radiation transparent window. Said thermopile sensor is a miniature sensor construction, in which said cavity has an inner dimension adapted for at least one thermopile chip. Said base section has an outer base dimension and a base thickness forming the first part of a thermal mass, and said mantle section extends with a length from said base section and has a wall thickness around said opening forming a second part of said thermal mass, which surrounds said thermopile chip. Electrical connectors are metal film leads on an electrical insulation membrane.

A non-dispersive single beam detection assembly in an infrared gas analyzer. The detection assembly comprises radiation source(s) providing infrared radiation, a measuring chamber, and a physical beam splitter for dividing said radiation beam into a reflected beam portion and a transmitted beam portion, or for combining a reflected beam portion and a transmitted beam portion into said radiation beam. A measuring detector receives one beam portions, and a reference detector receives another beam portion. Alternatively a measuring/reference detector receives both beam portions. Said transmitted beam portion has a first spectral intensity peak at shorter wavelengths with a first peak wavelength, and said reflected beam portion has a second spectral intensity peak at longer wavelengths with a second peak wavelength. There is a wavelength gap between said second peak wavelength and said first peak wavelength, which gap corresponds a wavelength shift of an optical interference filter with said second peak wavelength as tilted from its perpendicular position to an angled position. Said wavelength gap is at maximum 10% of the second peak wavelength, and at minimum 0.5% of the second peak wavelength.

摘要:
A nebulizer apparatus to atomize liquid solutions or suspensions. The nebulizer is typically used in conjunction with a breathing circuit to deliver atomized medicine to a patient. A housing with an opening covered by a thin mesh plate is supplied with the liquid to be nebulized on an “on-demand” basis. The mesh plate or liquid is vibrated at ultrasonic frequencies to atomize the liquid as it passes through the plate into the breathing gases flowing through the breathing tube. The vibration is produced with a piezoelectric element. The most efficient point to produce vibrations is found by measuring current, voltage or phase angle taken by the piezoelectric element or by measuring the resistance of the strain gauge attached to vibrator.
