摘要:
An apparatus for non-invasively measuring the oxygen saturation in the blood of a subject comprises light sources for irradiating a sample of blood in tissue with at least a first light beam and a second light beam having different wavelengths. A switching device drives the light sources and sequentially switches the irradiation of the sample of blood between the first and second laser beams. A photoelectric detector detects light transmitted through or reflected from the sample of blood and provides an electrical output signal indicative of the intensity of the detected light. A converter converts the electrical output signal of the photoelectric detecting device to a power spectrum, and a processor processes the power spectrum and calculates the oxygen saturation of the sample of blood. The blood oxygen saturation in the blood can be measured with high accuracy based on the detection of the light intensity transmitted through or reflected from the blood, regardless of the presence or absence of a pulsed blood flow. Additionally, by irradiating the subject by switching between laser beams of two wavelengths, the subject receives less irradiation than when two lasers are used at the same time. Thus even if the amount of irradiation at each wavelength is slightly increased, the accuracy measurement can be improved without adversely affecting the subject.

A power supply device in which bars BB extend in one direction and connect the terminals of the battery cells adjacent to each other. The lines (20) are electrically connectable to the bars BB. The tabs TB electrically connect the bars BB to the lines (20). The bar BB is formed of a clad plate formed of a first metal (3A) and a second metal (3B). The bar BB includes first and second holders (3a and 3b), and a tab holder. The first and second holders (3a and 3b) are arranged in the first and second metals, respectively, and hold the terminals at holding positions. The tab holder is arranged in the first metal (3A), and holds the tab TB at a holding position. The impedance between the first holder (3a) and the tab holder is substantially equal to the impedance between the tab holder and the second holder (3b).

To provide a catalytic converter that reduces non-uniformity of temperature of a catalyst support and that can approach a uniform temperature distribution, and a structural body for supporting a catalyst that structures this catalytic converter. At a catalyst support, gradually decreasing width portions, at which a width thereof gradually decreases toward electrode centers, are formed at regions where electrodes, are contactingly disposed, as seen in a cross-section orthogonal to a direction in which exhaust flows. The width is shorter than a length of a center line at a given position. Heat generation and heat dissipation of the catalyst support are balanced overall.
