Abstract: A lipolysis device that includes: a base material having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface; a glycerol introduction portion on the first surface of the base material, the glycerol introduction portion having a protrusion containing a lipolytic enzyme or a peptide compound having equivalent activity to that of the lipolytic enzyme; and a glycerol oxidation portion on the second surface of the base material, the glycerol oxidation portion containing glycerol oxidase that oxidizes glycerol introduced from the glycerol introduction portion.

Abstract: A detection sensor according to an aspect of the invention includes a vibratable film constituted by a piezoelectric film, a case accommodating the vibratable film, and a circuit board. The vibratable film is configured to be irradiated with infrared rays and thereby generate first electric signals through a pyroelectric effect, and configured to be vibrated by sound waves and thereby generate second electric signals through a piezoelectric effect. The case includes a transmissive part. The transmissive part is configured to transmit at least infrared rays and disposed on one side in a first direction relative to the vibratable film to face the vibratable film. The first direction is a thickness direction of the vibratable film. The circuit board is fixed to the case and disposed on the other side in the first direction relative to the vibratable film. The circuit board has a sound hole to input therethrough sound waves.

Abstract: A microphone unit including a tubular case having an opened top and an opened bottom, a waterproof film made of metal that has a thickness of 0.01 mm or more and 0.05 mm or less, a hardness of 100 HV or more, a proof stress of 70 N/mm2 or more, and a tensile strength of 350 N/mm2 or more, the waterproof film being fixed to the bottom of the case so as to block an opening part of the bottom of the case, a substrate arranged in the case, a microphone mounted on the substrate, and a sealing member that seals an opening part of the top of the case.

Abstract: A sound collecting device that is located in a first space and collects sounds generated in a second space isolated from the first space by a predetermined plate, comprising a metal plate, a piezoelectric element fixed on an upper surface of the metal plate, a housing that has a tubular shape having opened upper and lower surfaces, and has an upper end surface adhesively attached to a lower surface of the metal plate and a lower end surface adhesively attached to the predetermined plate, and a vibration pickup terminal that is accommodated in the housing, and comprises a leg part adhesively attached to the lower surface of the metal plate, a shaft part extending downward from the leg part, and a tip part which is formed at a tip of the shaft part in the downward direction and comes into contact with the predetermined plate when the housing is adhesively attached to the predetermined plate.

Abstract: A ceramic powder that contains 39.9 mol % to 47.0 mol % of Pb, 2.5 mol % to 6.7 mol % of La, more than 0 mol % to 4.4 mol % of Na, 42.6 mol % to 47.6 mol % of Zr, and more than 0 mol % to 6.2 mol % of Ti based on 100 mol % of a total amount of the Pb, the La, the Na, the Zr, and the Ti in the ceramic powder.

Abstract: A microphone capable of canceling vibration noise caused by mechanical vibration is provided with, in capsules, a pair of diaphragms and a pair of back plates opposite to the respective diaphragms. A printed circuit board is disposed at the middle of capsules. A pair of diaphragms is disposed close and opposite to the surfaces of the printed circuit board with the printed circuit board disposed therebetween. The difference in distance from a vibration source to the two diaphragms is made small. The microphone has a high canceling effect for canceling vibration noise caused by mechanical vibration.

Abstract: A unidirectional microphone includes a cylindrical capsule, a front plate blocking one end of the cylindrical capsule, a front plate sound hole formed in the front plate, a vibrating membrane and a first rear pole plate that are housed in the cylindrical capsule and form capacitance, a substrate blocking another open end of the capsule, and a rear plate sound hole formed in the substrate. The front plate sound hole and the rear plate sound hole are placed on mutually opposite sides of a central axis of the capsule so as to be offset relative to the central axis. The directional axis can be significantly offset relative to the central axis of the microphone using the microphone alone.

Abstract: There is provided a condenser microphone that has improved portability and that can be realized at low costs.
