This filter unit panel includes a plurality of filter units (100) and an outer frame (10) that surrounds these units. Each of the plurality of filter units includes a pleated filter medium and a frame body that supports the filter medium. Both of the outer frame (10) and the frame body are resin members. The filter units (100) are integrated into a single unit by welding their frame bodies adjacent to each other, and the outer frame and the frame bodies are integrated with each other by welding.

Abstract: An electron multiplier that can easily obtain characteristics according to a purpose is provided. By bonding a marginal portion 23 of an MCP 2 and a marginal portion 33 of an MCP 3 to each other via a conductive spacer layer 7, a gap 12 is formed between channel portions 22, 32. Therefore, when the electron multiplier is used for a purpose that requires a particularly high gain, by adjusting the thickness of the spacer layer 7, the gain can be increased by increasing the gap 12. In addition, when the electron multiplier is used for a purpose that requires an increase in gain as well as time characteristics, by adjusting the thickness of the spacer layer 7, the size of the gap 12 can be adjusted so that desired characteristics are obtained. Consequently, by only adjusting the thickness of the spacer layer 7, characteristics according to the purpose can be easily obtained.

Abstract: The present invention provides filter units that, when joined together, allow joining portions thereof to be fixed together satisfactorily and can prevent air from leaking at the joining portions. A filter unit includes a filter medium that has been pleated and a frame that supports the circumference of the filter medium. The frame has a protruding part on at least one face selected from an upper face and a lower face thereof, with the protruding part being formed by allowing a part of the at least one face to protrude. The upper face is a surface of the frame that faces the upstream side relative to the flow of air that passes through the filter medium, and the lower face is a surface of the frame that faces the downstream side relative to the flow of air.

Abstract: A sending apparatus transmits a call to a receiving apparatus to send image data. If a response from the receiving apparatus to the call indicates that the receiving apparatus is in a non-receivable status, the sending apparatus secures a communication channel for sending the image data to the receiving apparatus until the receiving apparatus sends a notification that the receiving apparatus has shifted to a receivable status. A receiving apparatus notifies a sending apparatus of a non-receivable status, when the receiving apparatus receives a call to send image data from the sending apparatus while it is in the non-receivable status.

Abstract: In an MCP assembly 10 having one or a plurality of MCPs 5, 6 sandwiched with an input-side electrode 4 and an output-side electrode 7, there provided at the surface facing the MCP 5, 6 of at least either (preferably, both) of the input-side electrode 4 and the output-side electrode 7, is a substantially annular contact face that contacts the MCP surface to fix the same, and there provided at a periphery of the contact face is a separation surface retracted in a direction to be separated from the MCP surface. Thereby, provided is an MCP assembly having a construction enabled to prevent damage to the MCP in manufacturing and handling.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an MCP unit or the like having a structure intended to achieve a desired time response characteristic, without depending on a limitation imposed by a channel diameter of MCP. The MCP unit comprises the MCP for releasing secondary electrons internally multiplied in response to incidence of charged particles, an anode arranged in a position where the secondary electrons reach, and an acceleration electrode arranged between the MCP and the anode. In particular, the acceleration electrode includes a plurality of openings which permit passing of the secondary electrons migrating from the MCP toward the anode. Further, the acceleration electrode is arranged such that the shortest distance B between the acceleration electrode and the anode is longer than the shortest distance A between the MCP and the acceleration electrode. Thus, an FWHM of a detected peak appearing in response to the incidence of the charged particles is remarkably shortened.
