  • Patent number: 11981117
    Abstract: A liquid absorbing sheet includes: a receiving base material which has a liquid permeability and which includes a first base material, a second base material, and a bonding portion at which the first base material and the second base material are bonded to each other at margins thereof, the first base material and the second base material each being composed of a material including fibers; and a water absorbing resin which has a water absorbing property, which is swelled in association with water absorption, and which is received in a portion between the first base material and the second base material surrounded by the bonding portion. In the liquid absorbing sheet described above, the bonding portion is at least partially broken when the water absorbing resin is swelled.

  • Patent number: 11912032
    Abstract: A liquid ejecting apparatus includes: a liquid ejecting head configured to eject a liquid; a liquid flowing portion coupled to the liquid ejecting head and configured to flow the liquid; and a frame that houses the liquid ejecting head and the liquid flowing portion. The frame is provided with a passage hole configured to pass the liquid flowing portion along a depth direction. when viewed in the depth direction, a portion of the liquid flowing portion disposed outside the passage hole is configured to be deformed.

  • Patent number: 11050401
    Abstract: Technology includes a current sensor that detects electric current flowing through an object. The current sensor includes a magnetic core through which the object is inserted, a coil wound around the magnetic core, a transmission line that transmits electric current supplied from the coil, a terminating resistor that converts electric current from a terminating end of the transmission line into voltage and outputs the voltage, and an impedance matching unit that implements impedance matching between the coil and the terminating resistor. The impedance matching unit raises, to a characteristic impedance of the transmission line, at least one of an impedance viewed from the terminating end of the transmission line toward the terminating resistor and an impedance viewed from a starting end of the transmission line toward the coil, in a band of frequency components involving amplitude attenuation among frequency components of the voltage output from the terminating resistor.

  • Publication number: 20200295728
    Abstract: A current sensor adapted to detect electric current flowing through an object to be measured includes a magnetic core through which the object to be measured is inserted, a coil wound around the magnetic core, a transmission line adapted to transmit electric current supplied from the coil, a terminating resistor adapted to convert electric current from a terminating end of the transmission line into voltage and outputs the voltage, and an impedance matching unit adapted to implement impedance matching between the coil and the terminating resistor. The impedance matching unit is adapted to raise, to a characteristic impedance of the transmission line, at least one of an impedance viewed from the terminating end of the transmission line toward the terminating resistor and an impedance viewed from a starting end of the transmission line toward the coil, in a band of frequency components involving amplitude attenuation among frequency components of the voltage output from the terminating resistor.
