Abstract

This sensor device system is provided with a sensor device (D1) that is used by being attached to an instrument (G1) provided with a scale plate (G16), a shaft member (G17), a pointer (G14), and a magnet (G18), and that acquires, in a non-contact manner, a measurement value measured by the instrument (G1). The pointer (G14) has an axial center part that is attached to the shaft member (G17), and an indication part that extends radially outward from the axial center part and that points to the scale when viewed in the axial direction (Z). In the magnet (G18), one N pole and one S pole are arranged one by one along the circumferential direction of the shaft member (G17). The sensor device (D1) is provided with a sensor circuit (2) and a case (1) that accommodates the sensor circuit (2). The sensor circuit (2) detects a magnetic pole boundary direction parallel to a boundary surface between the N pole and the S pole to generate a magnetic pole boundary direction value, and corrects the magnetic pole boundary direction value by a correction value to generate a meter reading value. The correction value is calculated on the basis of the extension direction of the pointer (G14) and the angle formed by the magnetic pole boundary direction and the reference direction for the magnetic pole boundary direction.

Abstract

A sensor module (100) comprises a sensor unit (20) and a lens unit (32), and is accommodated in a housing (10) and disposed outside a cap (3) attached to an opening (2) of a container (1) containing a content. The sensor unit (20) has a transmission/reception section (21) and a computation section. The transmission/reception section (21) has a transmission part (21a) that transmits a radio wave and a reception part (21b) that receives the radio wave. The transmission part (21a) transmits a radio wave that passes through the cap (3) and reaches an inner space (1a) of the container. The reception part (21b) receives a reflected wave resulting from the radio wave reflected by the content (5) in the inner space (1a). The lens unit (32) is opposed to the transmission/reception section (21). The computation section computes the remaining amount of the content (5) on the basis of a period of time between when the radio wave is transmitted by the transmission part (21a) and when the reflected wave is received by the reception part (21b).

Abstract

A capacitive sensor including a substrate, detection and drive electrodes, and a controller. The substrate includes one or a plurality of insulating layers including first and second faces. The detection electrode includes mutually electrically connected detection lines arrayed at spaced intervals on the first face. The drive electrode includes mutually electrically connected drive lines each arranged on the first or second face and located between adjacent two of the detection lines. When a target approaches the detection electrode being charged and discharged by the controller, the approach causes a change in a first capacitance between the detection electrode and the target. When a target approaches the detection and drive electrodes while the controller is supplying drive pulses to the drive electrode, the approach causes a change in a second capacitance between the detection electrode and the drive electrode. The controller detects the target referring to changes in the first and second capacitances.

Abstract

An electromagnetic actuator including a coil; a non-movable part constituted by a magnetic substance and disposed on one side relative to the coil; and a movable part including a permanent magnet on the other side relative to the coil. Applying a current to the coil alternately generates first and third driving forces to move the magnet and the movable part to one and the other sides in a first direction relative to the coil and the non-movable part. As the movable part moves from a neutral position to the one side in the first direction, a portion of the magnet positioned on the one side in the first direction relative to the first end of the first non-movable part gradually enlarges and is magnetically attracted toward the non-movable part. As the movable part moves from the neutral position to the other side in the first direction, a portion of the magnet positioned on the other side in the first direction relative to the second end of the first non-movable part gradually enlarges and is magnetically attracted toward the non-movable part.

Abstract

Provided is a connector module that is highly durable and that also allows easy position alignment with a connection target instrument while maintaining high shielding performance. The connector module includes a connector case and a connector inserted in the connector case. The connector includes a contact, a holder, a conductive tubular shell, a housing and a conductive shield case. The shield case includes a first member having an elastic portion and a second member in the form of a bottomed tube. The first member forms an elastic piece contactable with the second member. Fixing of the connector case to a main body case via a fastener member causes, in the connector, elastic deformation of the elastic piece, resulting in decrease in a gap between the first member and the second member, consequently in establishment of electrical connection between the first member and the second member.

Abstract

An electronic component module including a fixing part, a function part housed in, or fixed to, the fixing part, at least one connection line, and at least one protrusion on the function part or the fixing part. The fixing part includes an abutting face, an outer face extending from an end of the abutting face in a direction including a component of a first direction, and an edge line along which the abutting and outer faces meet. The connection line is flexible, electrically connected to the function part, positioned on a second direction side relative to the abutting face, and configured to be led out in a third direction from an inside to an outside relative to the edge line. The protrusion extends at least partly in the third direction and is positioned at least partly on the first direction side relative to the connection line in the led-out state.

Abstract

A vibratable element for loudspeaker use including a coil bobbin, a voice coil attached thereto, and a main body being constituted by a single thin plate and including a fixing portion, a damper portion, a vibrating portion, and an edge portion. The fixing portion is a part of the plate to which the coil bobbin is fixed from one side in a first direction being the axial direction of the voice coil. The damper portion is a part of the plate located inside the fixing portion. The vibrating portion is a part of the plate located outside the fixing portion. The inside refers to a side toward the center of the plate, and the outside refers to a side away from the center of the plate. The edge portion is a part of the plate outside the vibrating portion and includes an outer perimeter portion of the plate.

Abstract

A proximity sensor including a first substrate, a second substrate, a first connecting member, at least one first electrode, and a detection part. The first substrate is disposed in the vicinity of a first detection space. The second substrate is disposed on an opposite side of the first substrate to the first detection space. The second substrate faces the first substrate. The first connecting member connects the first substrate and the second substrate. The at least one first electrode is provided on the first substrate and configured such that a signal from the at least one first electrode changes in response to a change in a first capacitance caused by a detection target approaching to the first detection space. The detection part is provided on the second substrate and configured to detect the approach of the detection target based on the signal from the at least one first electrode.
