20080282771 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DETECTING COMBUSTIBLE GAS WITHIN ATMOSPHERE TO BE DETECTED - In apparatus and method for detecting a combustible gas within an atmosphere to be detected, a calculated humidity deviation corresponding to a past gas concentration stored in a memory unit of a microcomputer is calculated on the basis of a correlation between a preset gas concentration of the combustible gas and the calculated humidity deviation, a calculated humidity of the atmosphere to be detected is corrected using the calculated humidity deviation to calculate a corrected humidity, and, when a concentration of the combustible gas is calculated on the basis of a terminal voltage, a temperature of the atmosphere to be detected, and a humidity of the atmosphere to be detected, the calculated corrected humidity is used for the humidity of the atmosphere to be detected calculated on the basis of terminal voltages across first and second heating resistors and the temperature of the detected temperature. | 11-20-2008 |
20110257897 | COMBUSTIBLE GAS DETECTION APPARATUS AND COMBUSTIBLE GAS SENSOR CONTROL METHOD - There is provided a combustible gas detection apparatus with a gas sensor and a control device. The gas sensor includes first and second heating resistors each having a resistance that changes depending on a combustible gas concentration of gas under measurement. The control device includes an energization control section that alternately energizes the first and second heating resistors, a first calculation section that calculates a first calculation value responsive to the combustible gas concentration based on a voltage across the first heating resistor during energization of the first heating resistor, a second calculation section that calculates a second calculation value responsive to the combustible gas concentration based on a voltage across the second heating resistor during energization of the second heating resistor, and an anomaly judgment section that judges the occurrence of an anomaly in the first heating resistor by comparison of the first and second calculation values. | 10-20-2011 |
20130214881 | RELAY - A relay includes a pair of fixed terminals arranged to respectively have fixed contacts, a movable contact member arranged to have a pair of movable contacts, a driving structure operated to move the movable contact member and a magnet arranged to extinguish an arc. The movable contact member has a center section located between the pair of movable contacts. The magnet is placed on at least one of a first side and a second side that face each other across a predetermined face including the movable contact member and the pair of fixed terminals electrically connected by the movable contact member. The magnet is arranged to have a magnitude relation that a center area where the center section is located has a lower magnetic flux density than movable contact portions where the pair of movable contacts are located. | 08-22-2013 |
20130214882 | RELAY - A relay includes: a pair of fixed terminals, each being arranged to have a fixed contact on a one-end face; a movable contact member arranged to have a pair of movable contacts that are correspondingly opposed to the respective fixed contacts; and a driving structure operated to move the movable contact member. In a moving direction of the movable contact member, a side where the fixed contacts are located is called a first side, and a side where the movable contacts are located is called a second side. The movable contact member includes: a center section located between the pair of movable contacts and located on the second side relative to the movable contacts; and a pair of extended sections located between the center section and the pair of movable contacts and extended in a direction including a component of the moving direction. At least one of the pair of extended sections has a specific relationship of being overlapped at least partly with the one-end face located on same side relative to the center section in vertical projection of the relay onto a predetermined plane perpendicular to the moving direction. | 08-22-2013 |
20130214884 | RELAY - A relay includes: a plurality of fixed terminals arranged to have fixed contacts; and a movable contact member arranged to have a plurality of movable contacts that are correspondingly opposed to the respective fixed contacts. The relay further includes: a driving structure operated to move the movable contact member such that the respective movable contacts come into contact with the corresponding fixed contacts; a plurality of first vessels provided corresponding to the respective fixed terminals and arranged to have insulating property; a second vessel joined with the plurality of first vessels; and an air-tight space formed by the plurality of fixed terminals, the plurality of first vessels and the second vessel to allow the movable contact member and the respective fixed contacts to be placed therein. | 08-22-2013 |
