Abstract: An electrostatic atomizing apparatus includes an air flow path, a humidifier, and electrode section, and a control unit. The air flow path has an air intake port and an air exhaust port. The humidifier includes a portion of the air flow path and humidifies air taken in through the air intake port. The electrode section includes a portion of the air flow path and produces charged particulate water by causing water in the air humidified by the humidifier to condense on an electrode and applying voltage to the electrode. A flow rate of the air in the air flow path is regulated in accordance with at least one of humidity and temperature of the air taken in through the air intake port.

Abstract: A humidity sensing structure having a cantilever resistor and a method for fabricating the same are disclosed. The method includes providing a substrate having a first surface and a second surface; performing an oxidation process on the first surface and the second surface to form a first oxide layer and a second oxide layer respectively; forming a resistance sensing layer on the first oxide layer; forming a humidity sensing layer on the resistance sensing layer; forming in the substrate a through-hole penetrating the first oxide layer and the second oxide layer; and forming a cantilever in the through-hole such that both the humidity sensing layer and the resistance sensing layer are secured in position on the cantilever. In response to humidity changes, the humidity sensing layer varies in volume and in consequence the resistance sensing layer varies in length, allowing ambient humidity to be measured.

Abstract: A multi-layered card having a thin, flexible, non-moisture absorbable, printable first layer, a first high tack adhesive second layer on a back side of the first layer joining the first layer to a front face of a third layer of a moisture absorbable card stock. A back side of the card stock covered with a second high tack pressure sensitive adhesive fourth layer joining the card stock to a front face of a flexible magnet sheet fifth layer.
