  • Patent number: 11506527
    Abstract: A sensor includes a body member, a volume change body, and a detection member. The body member has a flat plate-like shape, a first end in a first direction being supported, and a storage space opening at at least one of both end faces in a thickness direction. The volume change body, whose volume changes depending on an amount of a target, is supported by the body member so that at least a part of the volume change body is stored in the storage space. The detection member is in contact with a second end in the first direction of the body member, and detects stress caused by the change in the volume of the volume change body.

  • Publication number: 20220260319
    Abstract: [Problems] To provide a thermoelectric power generation system that has a relatively simple configuration, is not prone to failure, and is capable of efficiently generating power from temperature changes in the surrounding environment alone, even where there is no heat source. [SOLUTION] A thermoelectric power generation device 13 is arranged between a heat storage body 11 having a phase-change material 11b and a heat exchange body 12 whose heat dissipation rate and/or heat absorption rate is greater than that of the heat storage body 11. The thermoelectric power generation device 13 is configured to generate electricity from the temperature difference between the heat storage body 11 and the heat exchange body 12. The thermoelectric power generation device 13 is plate-shaped, and one surface may be in contact with the heat storage body 11 and the other surface may be in contact with the heat exchange body 12.

  • Patent number: 10830737
    Abstract: A detecting device 100 detects an elastic wave propagating through the air. The detecting device 100 includes: a first electrode 12 that is a plate having a cantilever structure with a fixed end FX and a free end FR and that vibrates by being bent by the elastic wave; and a second electrode 32 that is a plate, that is opposed to the first electrode, and that has a predetermined distance from the first electrode. The detecting device 100 detects the elastic wave on the basis of a change in capacitance between the first electrode and the second electrode 32. An end of the second electrode 32 in a direction from the fixed end FX to the free end FR is closer to the fixed end than the free end.
