摘要:
In a detection apparatus, an inlet and an outlet are opened and an air introducing mechanism is driven to introduce air to a case, and airborne particles are electrically attracted and held on a collecting jig 12. After introduction, the inlet and outlet are closed, and amount of fluorescence received by a light receiving element resulting from irradiation with light emitted from a light emitting element is measured by a measuring unit. Thereafter, the collecting jig is heated by a heater and the amount of fluorescence after heating is measured by the measuring unit. Based on the amount of change in the amount of fluorescence before and after heating, the amount of microorganisms collected by the collecting jig is calculated at the measuring unit.
摘要:
A light receiving element provides a current signal corresponding to an amount of received light scattered by suspended particles moving at a predetermined speed to a pulse width measurement circuit and a current-voltage conversion circuit via a filter circuit. A pulse width measured from the current signal is converted into a voltage value based on a predetermined relationship by a pulse width-voltage conversion circuit, and is provided to a voltage comparison circuit. The current-voltage conversion circuit converts a peak value of the current signal into a voltage value, and an amplifier circuit amplifies the signal at a predetermined amplification factor and provides the same to the voltage comparison circuit. The voltage comparison circuit uses the voltage value converted from the pulse width as a boundary value, and the suspended particles causing the scattered light are detected as microorganisms when the peak voltage value is smaller than the boundary value.

A particle detection device detects a biological particle. The particle detection device includes a collection unit that collects a particle to a collection substrate, a fluorescence detection unit that emits excitation light toward the particle collected on the collection substrate and receives fluorescence emitted from the particle, and a cleaning unit that removes the particle from the collection substrate at a refreshing position separated from a collection/heating position and a detection position. At the collection/heating position, the particle is collected onto the collection substrate by the collection unit. At the detection position, fluorescence is received by the fluorescence detection unit. With such a structure, the particle detection device in which the particle is highly accurately detected is provided.

There is provided a particle detector that can increase a detection sensitivity to fluorescence emitted from biogenic particles. A particle detector for detecting biogenic particles includes a substrate having a principal surface and configured to collect the biogenic particles on the principal surface, a light emitting element configured to irradiate particles collected on the principal surface with excitation light, and a light receiving element configured to receive fluorescence emitted from the particles when the particles are irradiated with the excitation light from the light emitting element. An optical axis of the Fresnel lens and a ray direction of the excitation light intersect with each other. The principal surface is a mirror surface.

摘要:
An air purifier includes a detection apparatus, calculates a relative value of the number of microorganisms detected from airborne particles by the detection apparatus to a prescribed total value, and determines a central angle α corresponding to the relative value. Further, regarding the number of airborne particles other than microorganisms detected by the detection apparatus as the number of dusts, relative value of dust particles to a prescribed total value is calculated, and the central angle β corresponding to the relative value is determined. On a display panel, the amount of microorganisms is displayed as a bacteria meter by the area from the start position to the angle α, and by the following area to the angle β, the number of dusts is displayed as a dust meter, in a circle graph.

An apparatus for controlling the distortion of a reticle (28) includes a temperature adjuster (258) and a control system (226). The temperature adjuster (258) includes a plurality of adjuster elements (258E) that individually adjust the temperature of a plurality of regions (28R) of the reticle (28). The control system (226) includes a state observer (250) and a controller (260). The state observer (250) estimates an estimated physical condition (250C) of the reticle (28). The controller (260) controls the adjuster elements (258E) of the temperature adjuster (258) based at least in part on the estimated physical condition (250C).
