Title: A capacitive wetness sensor and method for manufacturing the same
Inventor: CURRAN PETER
IPC: A61F13/42
Filed: 2012-07-31
Granted: 2015-05-28
Abstract: A sensor device for sensing wetness in an absorbent article worn by a subject includes one or more sensing elements; and a coupling for communicating sensor signals between the one or more sensing elements and a receiver. A change in environmental parameter causes a change in electrical behaviour of at least one of the sensing elements, which behaviour can be analysed to determine occurrence of a wetness event in the absorbent article. The changes in electrical behaviour are communicated in the sensor signals to the receiver. The analysis may be by the receiver or a processor in communication with the receiver. Ideally, the sensing elements include capacitive elements and preferably, resonance circuits.

Abstract: A free movement, arris protection, construction joint (1) has a pair of arris protection members (2,3) formed complementarily from strips of sheet with a continuous trapezium wave form. A divider one (2) of the members is typically 100mm deep for a nominal 0.1m deep slab. The other one (3) is typically 50mm deep. The members are of steel plate. The wave form is comprised of flanges (4,5) extending in the length of the joint and of webs (6) angled to the flanges and the length of the joint. The flanges (4,5) are spaced on opposite sides of a mid-plane (7) of the joint. The members (2,3) are bolted together with flangible nylon bolts (8), with their top (in use) edges flush. Welded to the outer ones of the flanges are L strips (9) having apertures (10) in their flats (11) extending from the flanges for anchoring the joint to its slabs. Beneath the anchor members, extending out from every other flat (5) of the deep divider one (2) of the protection members are load transfer dowels (14), with sleeves (15) on their extent across the mid-plane and beyond. In use, concrete is cast with a horizontally castellated edge, castellations at positions (16) being bounded by the divider member (2). Complementary castellations on the other side of the joint at the positions (17) interdigitate with the first castellations (16). The castellations extend to the full depth of the slabs and can be expected to have a long life.
