An electrical capacitance proximity sensor with high detector sensitivity has an insulating substrate, a detector electrode and an earth electrode formed in a fixed pattern on one face of the insulating substrate, and a detector circuit which detects an object approaching the detector electrode and the earth electrode by detecting the capacitance between the detector electrode and the earth electrode. The detector electrode is formed in a shape such that it surrounds the earth electrode.

摘要:
A signal/vibration detecting technique employs a simple structure to identify a target optical fiber among many and carry out a bidirectional conversation through the target optical fiber. First ends of optical fibers (202A, 202B), one of which is a target optical fiber, are connected to an optical transceiver (201). Second ends of the optical fibers are connected to each other to form a loop. A local unit (203) is installed at the loop. The local unit vibrates the loop, and the optical transceiver emits lights so that the lights are oppositely propagated through the loop. The propagated lights are coupled together so that they interfere with each other. In the intensity of the interfering lights, a change corresponding to the vibration is detected to identify the target optical fiber. Once the target optical fiber is identified, it is used to carry out a conversation between the optical transceiver and the local unit.
摘要:
A bicycle disc brake caliper is provided with a cooling system that transfers heat away from the actuating fluid. Basically, the bicycle disc brake caliper has a housing and a piston unit, with a coolant member of the cooling system attached to the housing. The housing has a frame mounting member sized to be coupled to a portion of a bicycle frame. The piston unit is movably coupled to the housing between a release position, in which the piston unit is spaced from a brake disc mounted to a wheel of a bicycle, and a braking position, in which the piston unit engages the brake disc of the bicycle wheel. The coolant member has a coolant area for receiving coolant to create a coolant heat sink that transfers heat from the housing. The housing has an actuating passage in fluid communication with the piston unit to move the piston unit via an actuating fluid. In one embodiment, the cooling system includes a pump and a reservoir. In another embodiment, a coolant or water bottle is a attached to the coolant member for manually adding coolant thereto. In another embodiment, the coolant member is filled with a high specific heat gel.
摘要:
A bicycle disc brake assembly is provided with a brake disc support with a pair of floating discs and a bicycle disc brake caliper with three friction pads. The center or intermediate friction pad is a floating friction pad. The bicycle disc brake caliper can be provided with a cooling system that transfers heat away from the actuating fluid. The bicycle disc brake caliper also has a housing with a piston unit. The housing has a frame mounting member sized to be coupled to a portion of a bicycle frame. The piston unit is movably coupled to the housing between a release position, in which the piston unit is spaced from a brake disc mounted to a wheel of a bicycle, and a braking position, in which the piston unit engages the brake disc of the bicycle wheel. The coolant member has a coolant area for receiving coolant to create a coolant heat sink that transfers heat from the housing. The housing can have an actuating passage in fluid communication with the piston unit to move the piston unit via an actuating fluid. Alternatively, a cable instead of actuating fluid can be used to operate the piston unit.
摘要:
A process for preparing a separated soybean protein, by the steps of preparing an aqueous slurry of defatted soybeans, removing water-insoluble components from the slurry and collecting a protein component from the obtained soybean milk, wherein in preparing an aqueous slurry of defatted soybeans, an antioxidant and a chelating agent are added, or at least one member selected from the group consisting of ascorbic acid, erythorbic acid and their salts is added in an amount of at least 0.1 part by weight per 100 parts by dry weight of the defatted soybeans. The process gives a soybean protein which shows improved resistance to discoloration when heat-treated at a high temperature.
摘要:
A mobile communications network and a mobile communication method for reducing loads to be incurred to the mobile communications network which loads occur because the user changes its mobile communication terminal. Mobile communication terminal numbers of mobile communication terminals (21), (22), IDs of users (31), (32) of the mobile communication terminals, and at least one address to be used by each user when the user performs a communication. The mobile communications network comprises an address/user corresponding table (13) having a table for bringing addresses to be used in each of the multiple communication methods and a user ID into corresponding relation. When a terminating request specifying an address is made, a user ID corresponding to the specified address is obtained using the address/user corresponding table. Further, a mobile communication terminal number is retrieved using a user/mobile communication terminal corresponding table (14) for bringing the user ID and the mobile communication terminal number into a corresponding relation, then a mobile location area of the mobile communication terminal corresponding to the user ID is read, and the incoming signal is terminated in the mobile communication terminal using the mobile communication terminal number and the mobile location area.
摘要:
A sensor probe cover (20) is composed of two substantially square transparent films (21) and (22) and a ring (23) having a hole (23a) suitable for being mated with a sensor probe (12). The center of the first film (21) is provided with a hole (21a), and the ring (23) is fused to the inner periphery of the hole (21a) on the inner surface of the first film (21). The ring (23) is made of a material harder than that of the films. The first film (21) and the second film (22) are thermally fused together at the four corners of these films. The thermally fused locations are indicated at (20a). When used in the cover of the probe of an infrared thermometer, the second film (22) is made of a material transparent to infrared radiation. When the tip of the probe (12) is pressed into the ring (23) from above the second film (22), the probe (12) is covered while the second film (22) is folded back. The fitting on of the cover is completed when the ring (23) fits into an annular groove (12a) of the probe (12).
