  • Publication number: 20230367076
    Abstract: A lens including a lens body and a support. The lens body includes at least one lens portion and at least one holding hole for holding at least one optical fiber. A central axis of the or each holding hole is positioned on a phantom line extending through an optical axis of the or a corresponding lens portion. The support includes a support body fixed to the lens body. With a first portion of the or each optical fiber securely received in the or a corresponding holding hole, a bottom face of the or each holding hole abuts an end face of the first portion of the or a corresponding optical fiber, a peripheral face of the or each holding hole partly abuts an outer peripheral face of the first portion of the or a corresponding optical fiber, and the support body supports a second portion of the or each optical fiber.

  • Publication number: 20210223129
    Abstract: A sensing device including a sensitive part and a first sensor. The sensitive part includes a sealed internal space. At least part of the sensitive part is flexible and configured to be flexed, by a load applied on the sensitive part or by vibration of the sensitive part, so as to change an air pressure in the internal space. The first sensor borders the internal space or is at least partly housed in the internal space. The first sensor includes at least one sensing part configured to detect changes in the air pressure in the internal space.

  • Publication number: 20210223074
    Abstract: The fluid sensing device including a sensitive part, at least one obstacle, and a sensor. The sensitive part includes a flexible portion extending in a second direction substantially orthogonal to a first direction or fluid flow direction. The at least one obstacle extends in the second direction and is located in spaced relation to, and upstream of, the flexible portion. A collision of the fluid with the at least one obstacle generates vortexes in the fluid alternately on opposite sides in a third direction relative to the at least one obstacle, so that one or more of the vortexes collide with the flexible portion so as to distort at least part of the flexible portion. The third direction is substantially orthogonal to the first and second directions. The sensor includes at least one sensing part to detect the distortion of the flexible portion as a flow of the fluid.
