摘要:
A sensing apparatus includes a reference voltage generation circuit for generating a first and a second reference signals having different constant voltage levels, an A/D conversion circuit having a ring-gate-delay circuit, and a correction circuit for correcting an output value of the A/D conversion circuit. The A/D conversion circuit converts a load signal and the first and second reference signals to digital data based on the number of times a pulse signal input to the ring-gate-delay circuit circulates through the ring-gate-delay circuit. The correction circuit corrects the output value based on a ratio of a first difference between the digital data to a second difference between the digital data.

A physical quantity sensing element according to the invention includes an insulating layer and a sensing layer. The sensing layer is configured to generate an electrical signal as a function of a physical quantity applied thereto and has a surface that includes a first and a second area. The first area is completely covered with the insulating layer so that the physical quantity is to be applied to both the insulating layer and the sensing layer through the first area; the second area is exposed to an application direction of the physical quantity without being covered with the insulating layer and being subject to application of the physical quantity. With such a structure, easy and reliable electrical connection of the physical quantity sensing element with external devices and circuits is ensured. In addition, several practical methods of fabricating the physical quantity sensing element according to the invention are also provided.

摘要:
A method of effectively decontaminating a substance contaminated with radioactivity, in particular, shot blasting grit contaminated with radioactivity, and a decontaminating apparatus which makes it possible for a single apparatus to perform all of the decontamination processes without moving the contaminated substance from one apparatus to another for each process, thereby realizing reduction in the installation space and achieving an improvement in operational efficiency. The method comprises: decontaminating a contaminated substance by washing it with achelate liquid; draining the chelate liquid; raising the temperature of the substance to a level not lower than the boiling point of a solvent by means of hot air; supplying the solvent to the substance to result in rapid vaporization thereof; removing the remaining chelate fluid liquid by the force of this vaporization and draining the same;and drying the substance.

摘要:
Two axle-side linking portions and two wheel-side linking portions are included in a rotation body. They are alternately arranged in four positions that are disposed, with equal intervals, along a circumference of a coaxial circle within the rotation body. Four regions located between the axle-side linking portions and the wheel-side linking portions are formed by an elastically deformable member. Further, four ceramic load sensors are arranged respectively in middle positions of the four regions along the coaxial circle. Force acting on a tire is thereby detected only from detection values by a load sensor group of the four load sensors.

A physical quantity sensor according to the invention includes a first member, a second member, a sensing member, a temperature detector, a correcting circuit, and a heat conduction path thermally connecting the sensing member and the temperature detector. The sensing member is interposed in contact between the first and the second members and configured to generate an electrical signal as a function of a physical quantity applied thereto through one of the first and the second members. The temperature detector detects a temperature of the sensing member. The correcting circuit corrects the electrical signal generated by the sensing member using the temperature detected by the temperature detector and outputs the corrected electrical signal. The heat conduction path is formed through the second member such that the second member has a thermal resistance along the path less than that of the first member in an application direction of the physical quantity.
