Abstract: A respiration-synchronized oxygen supplying apparatus includes a sensor detecting respiration of human being, a valve connecting and disconnecting communications between a first gas passage coupled to the human being and a second gas passage coupled to the oxygen supplier, and a controller for controlling the valve based on information from the sensor. A negative pressure generating mechanism is provided having a communication area widened as closer to the human being between the valve and the human being, and a third gas passage is coupled to the negative pressure generating mechanism to normally communicate between the sensor and the human being. During an oxygen supplying state, oxygen does not leak toward the negative pressure sensor, so that the oxygen can be employed without waste.

Abstract: A structure of a surface-mount coil is provided which prevents a decrease in the fixing strength between the core and the lead frame of the surface-mount coil when soldering of a surface-mount coil to a mount board. Specifically, the structure of the surface mount coil of the present invention suppresses movement and diffusion of molten solder to lower faces of the core placing portions when soldering the external connection terminals to electrode lands of the mount board. The molten solder is detained on the electrode lands to form sufficient solder fillet on the external connection terminals, resulting in suppression of generation of defects in soldering and prevention of decreases in the fixing strength between the core and the lead frame by preventing heat transfer to the upper surface of the core mount portion of the surface mount coil.
