Inventor: CHANA KAMALJIT SINGH
IPC: G01B7/14
Filed: 2008-06-30
Abstract: An eddy current sensor for use as a dynamic proximity sensor, particularly for monitoring of blade tip timing and clearance in turbomachinery, has a common coil (6) for use in both generating a magnetic field in a proximate region and detecting the effect of eddy currents generated by said field in electrically conductive objects passing through that region. The coil is wound on a rectangular or other elongate former so that the coil is itself elongate in section. This can improve the resolution of the device when used for sensing the passage of objects of elongate section (such as a turbine blade tip (11)) when the sensor coil is oriented with its shorter cross-sectional dimension aligned with the shorter cross-sectional dimension of the respective object. Also described is a method of processing a signal wave form from such devices to derive "trigger" points for blade tip timing.

Abstract: An elastic tube is connected to the base end portion of a catheter main body having a balloon at its top end portion. When the elastic tube is set at a vibrator device (RP), the end portion side of the elastic tube, projecting outside, works as a margin volume part. A roller of the vibrator device (RP) can have a shut-off state where the elastic tube is pressed and completely closed, and a communication state where the elastic tube cannot be pressed. When the roller is rotated in a predetermined direction with the inside of a route from the balloon up to the elastic tube filled up with a liquid for heating, the liquid in the elastic tube is pressed toward the margin volume part in the shut-off state, while in the communication state, the pressurized heating liquid in the margin volume part flows backward to the balloon side. Repeating the pressurizing and the backward flow vibrates the heating liquid in the balloon. When the balloon is larger, the length (V) of the margin volume part is made longer, so that an adequate level of vibration in accordance with the size of the balloon can be applied.
