Abstract: A sensor detects a vibration generated due to water leakage. An integration circuit integrates time intervals for which a signal obtained by absolute-value amplifying an output signal from the sensor exceeds a predetermined level within a predetermined period of time. The integration circuit performs the integration a plurality of times. A detection circuit selects a minimum value of a plurality of integration values obtained by the plurality of measurements as an integration value obtained when the influence of unrelated noise is at a minimum and compares the minimum value with a preset reference value. When the minimum value exceeds the reference value, the detection circuit determines the presence of water leakage, and when the minimum value is smaller than the reference value, determines the absence of water leakage.

Abstract: The apparatus is for changing the posture of green extruded bodies which have been shaped into predetermined configuration. The apparatus includes a rotatable first table for receiving and supporting the green extruded body in an extruded posture, a rotatable second table for receiving the extruded body in a standing posture from the first table, and a mechanism for rotating the first and second tables while maintaining them perpendicular to each other during the transfer operation.

Abstract: A dielectric heating apparatus comprising a pair of oppositely located electrodes is disclosed. In this apparatus, a passage for a heated fluid is arranged in the interior of at least one of the electrodes, whereby condensation at the electrode surface can be prevented effectively.

Abstract: A cutting apparatus for ceramic green shaped bodies is disclosed, which comprises a cutting frame having two arm portions arranged side by side in the widthwise direction of the ceramic green shaped body. A cutting fine wire directly extends about the two arm portions through a roll arranged in each of the arm portions. The arm portions are moved toward a cutting direction of the ceramic green shaped body to move the cutting fine wire extended about the rolls into the ceramic green shaped body to cut it. The cutting fine wire is moved reciprocally during the moving of the cutting fine wire across the ceramic green shaped body, and while moving the arm portions toward the cutting direction of the ceramic green shaped body.
