Abstract: A connector apparatus of the present invention includes a receptacle into which a plug is inserted, a moving member configured to move in conjunction with insertion of the plug, and a sensor provided below the receptacle and configured to detect presence or absence of the plug in the receptacle, in which the moving member includes a first portion extending downward, a second portion, one end of which is connected to the first portion and another end of which is located above the one end, and a third portion, one end of which is connected to the second portion and configured to move in conjunction with the insertion of the plug to thereby switch between a first state in which the plug is disposed in a predetermined region and a second state in which the plug is not disposed in the predetermined region.

Abstract: (Problem) The invention is to provide to a solenoid valve drive control device, in which though the magnetic path is normally composed (i.e. the plunger is attached to the attracting member), it is never determined by mistake as the dropout, and it is never entered into the reabsorption mode of the plunger. (Resolution Approach) The invention is a solenoid valve drive control device of the invention, in which by controlling of the zero cross timing generation device 72, after application of the electric current to the solenoid 66 is started at zero cross timing by the switching device 68, when the current value that flows to the solenoid 66 detected by the electric current sensing device 78 reaches the circuit protection electric current value Ic (?A), a stabilization mode that repeats the ON-OFF cycle plural times (four times of the total in the Embodiment of FIG. 4), in which application of the electric current to the solenoid 66 is interrupted by the switching means 84, is operated (see A5-A8 in FIG. 4).

Abstract: A temperature sensor element has such a structure as, when reinforcing lead wires on internal electrodes with a paste, one side surface of each of the lead wires is covered with a reinforcement paste and the other side surface is not covered with the reinforcement paste without covering the entire lead wires welded and connected to the internal electrodes. This allows elimination of cause of cracks generating, thereby securing sufficient joining strength and reinforcement of conductivity of the internal electrodes and the lead wires, and securing connection strength between the lead wires and the internal electrodes.

Abstract: Internal electrodes, a protective film, and protective films covering the top parts of internal electrode sides of lead wires are formed on a top surface of a substrate of a temperature sensor element, thereby making the overall shape a quadrangular prism and the transverse cross-section nearly a square even at any portion in the axial direction. A heating part of the temperature sensor element is provided near the center along the length, the height, and the width of the element, thereby preventing deviation of heat generation and stabilizing heat release to the lead wires. This allows the temperature sensor element to suppress fluctuation in detected temperatures due to mounting angle.

Abstract: A resistance pattern and a pair of internal electrodes are formed on a main face of a cuboidal insulating substrate. The pair of internal electrodes are connected to opposite end portions of the resistance pattern. A surface glass film is formed to cover the entire main face including a pair of lead wires and a protective film. The pair of lead wires are bonded to the internal electrodes and protrude outward from the insulating substrate. The protective film is formed on the resistance pattern. The surface glass film extends over a region covering respective upper-side faces of the insulating substrate adjacent to the main face. The total dimension (T+D) is (T+D)?W. T: a thickness of the insulating substrate, D: a wire diameter of each of the lead wires, W: a width of the insulating substrate along a lateral direction.
