Publication number: 20110179871Abstract: Acceleration sensors and a microcomputer are mounted on a sensor mounting board. At this time, the accelerations sensors are arranged so that, even in the case where any detection axes of the acceleration sensors is made horizontal, the other detection axes of the acceleration sensors cannot be horizontal. Then, the microcomputer selects an acceleration sensor in which detection accuracy is the best from among the acceleration sensors, and arithmetically operates a tilt angle of a tilt sensor unit based on an output signal of the selected acceleration sensor.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2011Publication date: July 28, 2011Applicant: PANASONIC ELECTRIC WORKS CO., LTD.,Inventors: Atsushi MISAWA, Kazuya NOHARA

Patent number: 6906412Abstract: A sensor package P is a surface-mounted sensor package which is adapted to be mounted on a printed board 200. The sensor package P includes a case 1 for accommodating a semiconductor acceleration sensor chip 100 having output pads 101. The case has a bottom wall 10, which is divided into a center area 10a for supporting the sensor chip 100 and a peripheral area 10b. Output electrodes 15 to be connected to the output pads 101 are formed on external surfaces of the peripheral area. These output electrodes 15 are soldered to the printed board 200 for electrical connection between the sensor chip and an electric circuit of the printed board as well as for holding the sensor package physically on the printed board. The feature of the present invention resides in that grooves 12 are formed in an interior surface of the bottom wall 10 between the center area 10a and the peripheral area 10b.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2003Date of Patent: June 14, 2005Assignee: Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd.Inventors: Eiichi Furukubo, Masami Hori, Kazuya Nohara

Patent number: 5866818Abstract: An acceleration sensor element constitutes a piezoresistance type acceleration sensor in which an acceleration sensor chip including a cantilever structure of mass and beam parts and a piezoresistor formed on the beam part is mounted on a main lead which is slanted for positioning the piezoresistor and the center of gravity of the mass part substantially on the same horizontal plane in a mounted state of the sensor. The element thereby improves the reliability and assures such property as other-axis sensitivity of the sensor at the time of shipment.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 1996Date of Patent: February 2, 1999Assignee: Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd.Inventors: Sadayuki Sumi, Shigenari Takami, Fumihiro Kasano, Naohiro Taniguchi, Kazuya Nohara

Patent number: 5485749Abstract: In an acceleration detector for detecting three-dimensional components of acceleration applied thereto independently with respect to three axes X, Y and Z of an orthogonal coordinate system, a plurality of resistance elements having a piezo resistance effect are formed in a thin-sheet resilient member with an unique arrangement thereof for improving the sensitivity of the detector. Electric resistance of the resistance elements is varied in response to strain of the resistance elements accompanied with an elastic deformation of the resilient member. The resilient member is fixed at its periphery on a frame of the detector. A weight is connected with a center portion of the resilient member such that the elastic deformation is caused when the weight is displaced by receiving acceleration.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 1994Date of Patent: January 23, 1996Assignee: Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd.Inventors: Kazuya Nohara, Naohiro Taniguchi
