Abstract: The present invention provides a cheap angular velocity sensor capable of detecting angular velocity with high precision by using a vibration mode which cannot be set by external vibration. The angular velocity sensor includes: a vibrator (2) formed as a solid of revolution and made of a magnetostrictive material; a supporter (3) disposed on an axis of the vibrator (2) and supporting the vibrator (2) at a position where the axis crosses the surface of the vibrator (2); an excitation coil (4) for generating a magnetic field along a radial direction around the axis as a center in the vibrator (2), thereby making the vibrator (2) vibrate in the radial direction; a detection coil (6) which is disposed apart from the vibrator (2) and detects a magnetic flux change caused by a change in the vibration of the vibrator (2) which occurs depending on angular velocity.

Abstract: A haptic feedback controller 100 according to the present invention is a haptic feedback controller that controls a controlled appliance and includes a base 110, a cap 120, a piezoelectric motor 130, a rotation control device, and a rotational state detecting device. According to haptic feedback controller 100 of the present invention, the piezoelectric motor 130 that can produce a large torque even when rotating at low speed is used, so that even when the cap 120 is rotated at low speed, sufficiently large haptic feedback can be applied to the cap 120. Also, since the base 110 and the cap 120 are respectively fixed to the stator 140 and the rotor 150 of the piezoelectric motor 130, there is no backlash. As a result, according to the present invention it is possible to provide a haptic feedback controller for which there is no loss in the ability to express haptic feedback, so that a wide variety of haptic feedback can be expressed.

Abstract: A mechanical pencil for using a lead effectively includes a tip pipe for protecting a lead. The tip pipe is mounted to a front end portion of the mechanical pencil so as to be able to axially project from or retract into a tip opening of the front end portion of the mechanical pencil. The tip pipe is preferably made of metal and, at least one slit (and preferably two slits) axially extending from the tip, preferably is formed on the tip pipe so as to be mutually approximately in parallel. In the case of two slits, the two slits are arranged circumferentially at less than substantially 180E intervals and approximately in parallel with an axial direction and a portion between these two slits forms an elastic piece. Because the elastic piece of the tip pipe tends to move inwardly so as to make a surface contact against the lead, the force holding the lead is increased.
