Abstract: An air flow meter capable of rapidly following a change of a pulsation state of an input signal includes: an air flow rate detection element that generates an input signal Qsen relating to an air flow rate to be measured; and a calculation unit that performs calculation to generate an output signal Qout in response to the input signal Qsen. The calculation unit includes: the output signal calculation unit that performs calculation including exponentiation of raising the power of the output signal Qout by more than one; the input signal calculation unit that performs calculation on the input signal Qsen; the subtractor that obtains the difference between the calculation results by the output signal calculation unit and the input signal calculation unit; and the integrator that integrates the difference obtained by the subtractor, and the output signal Qout is generated based on the output from the integrator.

Abstract: A pump device has a motor rotation shaft and a pump rotation shaft whose end portion is connected to an end portion of the motor rotation shaft and which drives a pump unit. The pump device includes: an outer circumferential seal portion that is arranged at either one or both of radially outer sides of the end portion of the pump rotation shaft and the end portion of the motor rotation shaft so as to overlap with either one or both of the end portion of the pump rotation shaft and the end portion of the motor rotation shaft in axial directions of the pump rotation shaft and the motor rotation shaft and has an outer circumferential seal surface; and a seal unit that makes sliding contact with the outer circumferential seal portion.
