Abstract: A motor monitoring sensor is continuously operable at a lower cost. The motor monitoring sensor includes an acceleration sensor attachable to a motor to be monitored to detect vibration of the motor, a processor that generates state information indicating a state of the motor based on a detection value indicating the vibration of the motor detected by the acceleration sensor, a transmitter that transmits the generated state information to a host device, and a vibration-powered generator attachable to the motor to generate power with the vibration of the motor and supply the generated power to the acceleration sensor, the processor, and the transmitter.

Abstract: A projection-type display device includes: a light source; a dust-proof case; heat-dissipating fins; a heat-dissipation fan that causes cooling air to flow into the heat-dissipating fins; a prism unit that is provided inside the dust-proof case and that separates light from the light source into a multiplicity of illumination light beams; an internal circulation fan; heat-receiving fins; and heat pipes that connect the heat-dissipating fins and the heat-receiving fins. The heat-receiving fins and the heat-dissipating fins are both formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, each having, as cooling air inflow surfaces that are effective in heat dissipation or heat reception, a first surface and a second surface whose area is greater than the first surface. The cooling airflow inside the dust-proof case that is supplied by the internal circulation fan flows from the first and second surfaces of the heat-receiving fins.

Abstract: A color wheel includes a plural of transmission areas (R, G, B, C, W and Y) on which light from a light source is made incident and which each transmit light of a different wavelength. A detector detects ambient information. A power supplier supplies power to the light source. A controller controls the supply power to be supplied to the light source by the power supplier. The transmission areas (R, G, B, C, W and Y) on which light from the light source is made incident are sequentially changed. When the ambient information satisfies a predetermined condition, the controller changes the supply power in synchrony with the transmission areas (R, G, B, C, W and Y).

Abstract: A light source device includes a holder for holding a lamp unit, a duct member placed over the holder, a flow path formed between the holder and the duct member, a plurality of port groups disposed in the holder, each port group including ports for connecting the inside of a reflector of the lamp unit to the flow path, and a plate member disposed in each port group and configured to selectively open/close ports included in each port group. The plurality of port groups is located around the center axis of a light-emitting tube of the lamp unit, and the plate member rotates under its own weight to open some of the ports included in the port group while closing the other ports.

Abstract: Provided is a light source device capable of effectively cooling a bulb included therein. The light source device includes: a luminous tube having a bulb to seal a pair of electrodes that generates light by electric discharging; a reflector formed into a concave surface shape and configured to emit light from the bulb; and an air blowing device that generates a flow of gas to cool the luminous tube.

Abstract: A cooling device is provided that can thin a boundary layer and thus obtain the effect of sufficiently improving the heat transfer coefficient. The cooling device for an electronic apparatus that has a plurality of members juxtaposed such that the surfaces of the members confront each other, the surface of at least one member of these members having a heat discharge surface from which heat is discharged, includes: a duct (100) equipped with an opening (100a) whereby a first air flow emitted from the opening (100a) flows in a first direction along the heat discharge surface, and a duct (101) equipped with an opening (101a) whereby a second airflow emitted from the opening (101a) flows along the heat discharge surface in a second direction that intersects with the first direction. Taking as a boundary a line (200c) that passes through the center (200a) of the heat discharge surface, the center of the opening (101a) is located on the side opposite the side in which the opening (100a) is provided.
