    摘要: The present invention relates to an improved dual beam multichannel spectrophotomer employing a simple and novel optical system in combination with photodiode arrays and a unique logrithmic data converter to convert light signals to absorbance. In particular, the optical system utilizes optical elements in a novel arrangement to direct a pair of equivalent sample and reference beams in an essentially parallel formation respectively through a sample and reference cell and to focus and direct the emergent sample and reference beams to a single flat horizontally ruled grating which disperses each of the sample and reference beams respectively onto a pair of vertically disposed photodiode arrays whereby the light signals are converted into absorbance units (AU) by an unique logarithmic data converter. The spectrophotometer is highly accurate, has very low drift, less than 2.times.10.sup.-4 AU/.degree.C., and very low noise, less than .+-.2.times.10.sup.-5 AU. The dual beam multichannel spectrophotomer is particularly suitable for use in high pressure liquid chromatography to record the absorbance spectrum of the samples as they are being eluted from the chromatographic column.

    摘要: A toner depositing amount measuring apparatus for measuring the amount of toner deposited on a photosensitive drum includes a light source for irradiating the surface of the photosensitive drum with light and a photoelectric converting section for receiving the reflected light and converting the received reflected light into an electric signal. A logarithmic calculation is applied to the output signal of the photoelectric converting section in a logarithm-compressing section. The temperature characteristics of the logarithm-compressing section are compensated for in a temperature compensating section. The amount of the toner deposition is calculated in a toner depositing amount calculating section based on a difference between the data during non-deposition of the toner and the data during deposition of the toner, the data being obtained from the logarithm-compressing section. Further, image forming conditions are changed in a control section in accordance with an output signal denoting the calculated deposition amount of the toner so as to control the density of the image formed.

    摘要: An indicator circuit is provided for an apparatus that measures the concentration of a selected component in a test sample. The apparatus generates a test voltage that represents the concentration of the component in the test sample. The circuit generates a series of range voltages, each of which represents a respective one of a series of potential concentration ranges of the component in the test sample. A switching circuit selects an adjacent pair of range voltages immediately above and below the test voltage and applies the selected range voltages across an incremental voltage divider such that the voltage difference of the selected range voltages is divided into a series of incremental voltages, each of which represents a respective one of a series of potential incremental concentration levels of the component within each concentration range. The test voltages are compared with each of the incremental concentration voltages and the actual incremental concentration level of the component in the test sample is determined. There is a group of incremental indicator elements, each of which represents and displays a respective incremental concentration level in each of the concentration ranges.

    摘要: A portable hand held instrument is capable of making accurate colorimetric measurements in the field. The instrument has a body which houses the electronic circuitry and a door which allows a vial having a solution to be measured to be placed therein. The vial is illuminated lengthwise by a light beam of two wavelengths, one of which serves as a reference. The light emerging from the top of the vial is spatially integrated and directed to a detector. The detector measures the intensity of the transmitted light, and the electronic circuit determines the difference between the logarithms of the detected signals. This difference is multiplied by a constant to produce a signal representative of the concentration and is displayed. The resolution of the measurement is automatically increased when the processor senses that the signals are too small.

    摘要: In a spectrophotometer of double beam type comprising a radiation source, reference and sample cells, a photo detector, and beam path switching means, a current-voltage converting amplifier and a logarithmic amplifier in parallel connection are connected to the photo detector. In measuring the transmittance of a sample material in the sample cell, an output of the detector responding to a sample cell transmitted beam is directly supplied to the logarithmic amplifier without undergoing current-voltage conversion while an output of the detector responding to a reference cell transmitted beam is supplied to the current-voltage converting amplifier without undergoing logarithmic amplification.
