摘要:
An acoustic impedance measuring apparatus emits ultrasonic waves to a target measurement object and measures the acoustic impedance of the target measurement object by ultrasonic waves fed back from the target measurement object. This acoustic impedance measuring apparatus includes an ultrasonic transducer, pulse signal generator, signal separator, frequency converter, parameter extractor, and acoustic impedance calculator. The pulse signal generator generates a pulse signal to be applied to the ultrasonic transducer. The signal separator separates, from an output from the ultrasonic transducer, an immediate ultrasonic response signal resulting from ultrasonic waves reflected by the surface of the target measurement object. The frequency converter obtains the frequency characteristics of the immediate ultrasonic response signal. The parameter extractor extracts predetermined parameters from the frequency characteristics. The acoustic impedance calculator calculates the acoustic impedance of the target measurement object by using the parameters extracted by the parameter extractor.

First terminal fitting accommodating chambers (61A) are arranged in a width direction in a housing (41) of a connector (40) for receiving first terminal fittings (42). A second terminal fitting accommodating chamber (61B) for receiving a second terminal fitting (42) is adjacent the first terminal fitting accommodating chambers (61A) in a height direction and between the first terminal fitting accommodating chambers (61A) in the width direction. First lances (64A) are in the first terminal fitting accommodating chambers (61A) for engaging the inserted terminal fittings (42) and are deformable into first deformation spaces (65A) lateral to the second terminal fitting accommodating chamber (61B). A second lance (64B) is in the second terminal fitting accommodating chamber (61B) for engaging the second terminal fitting (42) and is deformable into a second deformation space (65B) between the first terminal fitting accommodating chambers (61A).

An ultrasonic transducer of a capacitance type includes a pair of electrodes disposed to be opposed to each other and a vibration film including one of the pair of electrodes. The ultrasonic transducer includes n (n is a natural number equal to or larger than 1) air gap layers interposed between the pair of electrodes and m (m is a natural number equal to or larger than 1) insulating layers interposed between the pair of electrodes. In the ultrasonic transducer, a following Formula (1) is satisfied: d1≦{Σdn+Σ(tm/Km)}/3 (1) where, dn indicates a thickness of an nth air gap layer, d1 indicates a thickness of an air gap layer for allowing the vibration film to vibrate, tm indicates a thickness of an mth insulating layer, and Km indicates a dielectric constant of the mth insulating layer.
摘要:
A detecting portion outputs a contact state signal in accordance with a contact state with respect to an object to be manipulated. The contact state signal represents at least one of information of a sense of sliding of the detection portion with respect to the object and surface information such as surface roughness of the object. A signal processing section converts the contact state signal from the detecting portion into tactility information corresponding to at least one of the information of the sense of sliding and the surface information. A tactility providing portion is excited in accordance with the tactility information from the signal processing section to generate at least one of a traveling wave corresponding to the information of the sense of sliding and a standing wave corresponding to the surface information. A transmission portion transmits at least one of the traveling wave and the standing wave generated by the tactility providing portion to a finger of an operator.
