    摘要: A miniaturized sensor device comprises at least one pair of active projecting elements or cantilevers, which are set parallel to one another and at a micrometric or sub-micrometric distance apart and are designed to be submerged at least partially in a fluid. Each pair comprises a first cantilever, equipped with actuator means, and a second cantilever, equipped with sensor means. The actuator means can cause a movement of the first cantilever, whilst the sensor means can detect a movement of the second cantilever, induced by the movement of the first cantilever, for generating accordingly a measurable signal, which represents the lubricating capacity of the fluid.

    摘要: An evaluation method in which a capacitive sensor is placed in a region of a container, into which a granular material is fed so as to contact the sensor, and the variation in the impedance of the sensor caused by feeding in the material is evaluated. The method is particularly useful for evaluating the compactness of sand in a formwork for making metal castings. The evaluation system includes a sensor defined by plates sensitive to the variation in the dielectric; and a conditioning and control circuit for indicating the variation in the capacitance of the plates, or more generally the total impedance of the system, when the granular material is fed into the container. In one embodiment, the plates of the sensor are defined by two combs made of conducting material, having two numbers of interlacing segments, and located on a rigid or flexible support.

    摘要: A protective liner for use with a cooking top is provided. The protective liner includes a base sheet and additional sheets which are geometrically similar to the surface of a cooking top. The protective liner shields the cooking top or a portion thereof from soil. Housing holes in the sheets delimit an area for corresponding cooking devices. The upper sheets are removable, leaving the base sheet as a clean sheet to shield the cooking top. An associated system is provided in which a stove having a cooking top with a surface through which one or more cooking devices are disposed has a protective liner to protect the cooking top surface from soil. The sheets of the protective liner are removable such that when a particular sheet is removed, an immediately adjacent sheet provides a clean outer aspect of the cooking top.
