Provided is a bone inspecting system for placing the lower legs (L) of an examinee (P) on a proximal support block (26) and a distal support block (28) mounted on a turning base (24). The proximal support block supports the heads of fibula, and the distal support block supports the lateral malleolus or medial malleolus of a tibial distal end of the examinee. The turning base is supported turnably on a turning axis positioned near the knees of the examinee, with respect to a main base (22), and is moved up and down by an elevating mechanism (30) disposed near the ankles. The turning base (24) is turned by the elevating mechanism while bearing the lower legs thereon, thereby positioning the lower legs horizontally.

An echo tracking processor unit detects a bone surface section based on an echo signal and tracks a position of the bone surface section. An interpolation line generator unit generates an interpolation line connecting tracking points which represent the tracked bone surface section. A translational displacement corrector unit removes a translational displacement component between an interpolation line corresponding to a time phase of a no-load state stored in a memory and an interpolation line corresponding to a time phase in a loaded state output from the interpolation line generator unit. A strain calculator unit calculates an amount of strain of bone for each time phase and outputs to a characteristic curve generator unit. The characteristic curve generator unit generates a characteristic curve related to the strain of bone based on a load value output from a load measurement device and the amount of strain of bone output from the strain calculator unit.

An angle calculating unit calculates a bending angle of a bone based on a plurality of surface points. A characteristic data calculating unit determines an indication value which reflects a load applied on the bone, a bone length of the bone, and a position of a fractured part. The characteristic data calculating unit calculates, as characteristic data reflecting a mechanical characteristic of the bone, a proportionality constant indicating a ratio between the indication value and the bending angle of the bone.

A DDS type variable frequency signal generator generates a jitter free and stable output signal regardless of the address interval. If the total number of addressable memory locations of a memory storing digital data is divisible without remainder by an initial address interval, then the memory is read every initial address interval with a clock signal of a predetermined frequency. If the total number of addressable memory locations is not divisible without remainder by the initial address interval, then the address interval is modified to a value that is divisible without remainder into the total number of addressable memory locations and the clock frequency is modified in accordance with this modification of the address interval. The memory is read every modified address interval with the modified clock signal.

A temperature compensated amplifier network for a fiber optical receiver includes a photodiode having an optical input and a current output, and a cascadable transimpedance amplifier having N stages, each stage having a common base-emitter voltage. An emitter-follower transistor is coupled to the last stage of the transimpedance amplifier network and has a base-emitter voltage of the same magnitude but of opposite polarity from the base-emitter voltage of each of the amplifier stages. Any DC drift of the amplifier stages is therefore offset by a compensating drift in the opposite direction by the output emitter-follower.
摘要:
An electronic device measurement apparatus measures a characteristic of an electronic device under test (DUT) by applying a sine-wave voltage to the DUT, detecting the voltage across the DUT as well as the current flowing through the DUT and displaying a characteristic curve in accordance with the detected voltage and current. The sine-wave voltage is generated in phase with an AC line voltage but the amplitude thereof is independent of the line voltage, and consequently the circuits in the measurement apparatus are not affected by variations in phase and amplitude in the line. Moreover, the generated sine-wave voltage is symmetrical, whereby display distortion is substantially eliminated. A voltage limiter and a current limiter are provided for limiting the voltage and current to be applied to the DUT to values determined by a display window, for protecting a current detecting resistor and a voltage divider connected to the DUT.
