  • Patent number: 7223463
    Abstract: A foil is formed on a given substrate, then, peeled off of the substrate and floated on the water surface charged in a tank. The surface level of the water is decreased to contact the foil to a folding plate of a jug substrate and thus, fold the foil at the folding plate in two. The two surfaces of the foil opposing each other are laminated along a foil forming-supporting plate within a laminating region. The thus laminated foil is dried and annealed except the area in the vicinity of the foil forming-supporting plate, and then, cut along the folding plate, a foil acceptor and a supporting plate, to provide a stripping foil which can be supported by itself.

    Abstract: An electronic signal relating to a sonic wave when an intended gas does not exist in air is synchronized and locked in a feedback circuit constituting a phase-locked loop (PLL). Then, an electronic signal relating to another sonic wave when the intended gas exist in the air is input into the feedback circuit to release the synchronization (lock) of the feedback circuit to measure as a given electronic signal the difference in phase of the sonic wave in the air between with and without the intended gas to be detected. The intended gas can be detected as the electronic signal due to the difference in phase of the sonic wave.
