Abstract: In a coil component, a shield layer is provided after the unevenness of the surface of an element body is smoothened by the surface being covered with an insulating layer. A Cu layer of the shield layer is provided on a smooth surface, and thus a thickness variation can be suppressed and the Cu layer can be formed with a substantially uniform thickness. In the coil component, a point where the shield layer is thin or a point lacking the shield layer is unlikely to be generated and a functional degradation of the shield layer is effectively suppressed.

Abstract: An inspection apparatus of an embodiment includes a rotor image-pickup unit for picking up an image of a rotor using a rotor image-pickup device in the air gap between the rotor and a stator. The rotor image-pickup device includes: a carriage casing; a camera; an image-pickup position changing part; and an image-pickup direction changing part. The camera is installed in the carriage casing, and picks up an image of a ventilation hole of the rotor in the air gap. The image-pickup position changing part is installed in the carriage casing, and changes an image-pickup position of the camera by moving the carriage casing in a circumferential direction of the rotor in the air gap. The image-pickup direction changing part is installed in the carriage casing, and changes an image-pickup direction of the camera to an inclined angle to a radial direction of the rotor in the air gap.

Abstract: A semiconductor device capable of measuring a minute current is provided. The semiconductor device includes an operational amplifier and a diode element. An inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier and an input terminal of the diode element are electrically connected to a first terminal to which current is input, and an output terminal of the operational amplifier and an output terminal of the diode element are electrically connected to a second terminal from which voltage is output. A diode-connected transistor that includes a metal oxide in a channel formation region is used as the diode element. Since the off-state current of the transistor is extremely low, a minute current can flow between the first terminal and the second terminal. Thus, when voltage is output from the second terminal, a minute current that flows through the first terminal can be estimated from the voltage.

Abstract: To provide an electronic wind instrument capable of accurately detecting the amount of rotation of a transmission member. An electronic wind instrument whereby contact with an optical sensor by a flat surface of a rear section can be suppressed even when at least a prescribed amount of a reed is bitten, as a result of the flat surface rotating in a direction away from the optical sensor when the rear section of the transmission member rotates in conjunction with displacement of the reed. As a result, the spacing between the facing flat surface and the optical sensor can be set comparatively narrowly in the initial state and the detection sensitivity at the optical sensor increased, thereby enabling accurate detection of the rotation amount of the transmission member (the amount of the reed that is bitten).

Abstract: Provided is a polyurethane elastic fiber wherein surface treating agents do not bleed even after lengthy storage, thereby preventing contamination of packing material, and which exhibits stable friction performance independent of storage duration, making the fiber suitable for a stable gathered member with low occurrence of core slip-back. This polyurethane elastic fiber is a multifilament polyurethane elastic fiber and is characterized by having, in the multifilament cross section, a void part demarcated by the constituent individual filaments being in contact with one another and by having a cross-sectional void part area ratio of 15% to 60% as calculated according to the formula (cross-sectional void part area ratio [%])=100×(area of the void part)/(total cross-sectional area), where the total cross-sectional area is the sum of the area of the void part and the cross-sectional areas of all individual filaments that constitute the multifilament.

Abstract: Provided is a keyboard device for which the number of parts can be reduced. The present invention is provided with: hammers rotatably linked to a chassis; keys rotatably linked to the hammer thereof; guiding pins provided to the keys and extending in the widthwise direction of the keys; and a guiding groove provided to the chassis side and into which the guiding pins are inserted. The downward displacement of the front-end sides of the keys is guided by the rotation of the hammers with respect to the chassis, and the downward displacement of rear-end parts of the keys is guided by the sliding of the guiding pins with respect to the guiding groove. This eliminates the need for links to guide the displacement of the rear-end parts of the keys, thus allowing the number of parts to be reduced.

Abstract: Provided is a keyboard device that can suppress a reduction in the operability of a key. A rear guiding member comprises a pair of guiding surfaces that, in a side view of a key, face forward and rearward and are formed along an arc that is convex toward the front. The key comprises a pair of sliding surfaces that slide against the pair of guiding surfaces. Due to this sliding of the guiding surfaces and the sliding surfaces, rotation of the key can be guided while displacement of the key in the front-rear direction is regulated. Consequently, because forward and rearward displacement of the key during key pressing can be suppressed, a reduction in operability (feeling of touch) during pressing of the key can be suppressed.

Abstract: To provide an electronic wind instrument capable of accurately detecting the amount of rotation of a transmission member. During an electronic wind instrument performance by a performer, external light (such as light from lighting) may easily shine on the upper surface side of an instrument main body. However, the light-receiving section of an optical sensor faces toward the bottom surface side of the instrument main body therefore external light from the upper surface side of the instrument main body can be prevented from reaching the light-receiving section of the optical sensor. As a result, erroneous detection of the external light by the optical sensor can be suppressed therefore the rotation amount of a transmission member can be accurately detected by the optical sensor.
