Abstract: A powder supply apparatus includes at least a vibration sieve part configured to vibrate a powder supply port by a vibration source. The powder supply port has a rectangular shape. The vibration source is mounted on a short side of the powder supply port.

Abstract: A board connection terminal (15) is connected to a circuit board that detects a current having flowed through a resistor element (10). The board connection terminal (15) includes an intermediate part (31) and two connecting parts (30) integrated with one another. The intermediate part (31) has a substantially linear shape, and is connected to a shunt resistor (7). The two connecting parts (30) have proximal ends thereof located at opposite ends of the intermediate part (31), and protrude in a direction substantially perpendicular to the intermediate part (31), to be connected to the circuit board. The two connecting parts (30) are arranged substantially in parallel to each other. The board connection terminal (15) comprises two board connection terminals (15) that are arranged with the resistor element (10) sandwiched therebetween. Contact resistance between the intermediate part (31) and the shunt resistor (7) is lower than conductor resistance of the intermediate part (31).

Abstract: It is an object to provide a configuration with an enhanced sensing accuracy, in which a shunt resistance main body and a terminal member are formed as separate pieces. A shunt resistor includes a resistance main body and a terminal member (21) that is electrically connected to the resistance main body. The terminal member (21) includes a resistance connection portion (23) to be in contact with the resistance main body, and a circuit connection portion (24) provided so as to extend from the resistance connection portion (23). The circuit connection portion (24) is divided into two parts by a slit (27) being formed therein. The slit (27) is formed up to a part of the resistance connection portion (23).

Abstract: A first optical attenuation filter is arranged in a predetermined optical path and attenuates light to be attenuated with a first variable attenuation amount. A second optical attenuation filter is arranged in the predetermined optical path and attenuates, with a second variable attenuation amount, the light which has been transmitted through the first optical attenuation filter. The first and second optical attenuation filters can be driven in the forward and reverse directions and each has an attenuation amount characteristic which changes monotonously in both the forward and reverse directions. An attenuation amount setting section sets a desired attenuation amount to the light to be attenuated. First and second drivers are coupled to drive the first and second optical attenuation filters in the forward and reverse directions, respectively.
