20100204601 | RESPIRATION TYPE EVALUATION APPARATUS - A respiration type evaluation apparatus includes a bioelectrical impedance determiner for determining a bioelectrical impedance at at least a body region of a human subject that contributes to respiration of the human subject, and a respiration type determiner for determining whether respiration of the human subject is abdominal or costal on the basis of change over time of the bioelectrical impedance determined by the bioelectrical impedance determiner. | 08-12-2010 |
20120016254 | RESPIRATION CHARACTERISTIC ANALYSIS APPARATUS AND RESPIRATION CHARACTERISTIC ANALYSIS SYSTEM - A respiration characteristic analysis apparatus includes a bioelectrical impedance determiner adapted for determining a first bioelectrical impedance at the upper body trunk of a human subject including the upper lobes of the lungs of the human subject and excluding the abdomen of the human subject and a second bioelectrical impedance at the middle body trunk of the human subject including the median and lower lobes of the lungs of the human subject and the abdomen of the human subject; and an analyzer adapted for analyzing a respiration characteristic of the human subject on the basis of change over time in each of the first bioelectrical impedance and the second bioelectrical impedance determined by the bioelectrical impedance determiner. | 01-19-2012 |
20120016255 | RESPIRATION CHARACTERISTIC ANALYSIS APPARATUS AND RESPIRATION CHARACTERISTIC ANALYSIS SYSTEM - A respiration characteristic analysis apparatus includes a bioelectrical impedance determiner adapted for determining bioelectrical impedance at a part including the right lung of a human subject and for determining bioelectrical impedance at a part including the left lung of the human subject; and a respiration depth calculator adapted for calculating a right lung respiration depth related to a respiration capability of the right lung of the human subject on the basis of change over time in the bioelectrical impedance at the part including the right lung determined by the bioelectrical impedance determiner, and for calculating a left lung respiration depth related to a respiration capability of the left lung of the human subject on the basis of change over time in the bioelectrical impedance at the part including the left lung determined by the bioelectrical impedance determiner. | 01-19-2012 |

20090027060 | ADAPTER AND INTERFACE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE TEST APPARATUS PROVIDED WITH ADAPTER - An adapter able to reduce the costs of an electronic device test apparatus, the adapter having a frame member interposed, between an opening formed at a handler and a HIFIX attached to a test head and inserted in the opening for adapting the shape of the HIFIX to the shape of the opening. | 01-29-2009 |
20090189631 | MOVEMENT APPARATUS AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE TEST APPARATUS - An air cylinder raising and lowering a pickup head for holding an IC device in an electronic device test apparatus, the air cylinder includes a cylinder tube; a piston; a first hollow chamber formed below the piston; a second hollow chamber formed above the piston and being larger than the first hollow chamber in terms of a pressure receiving area of the piston; and a rod with one end coupled with the piston and the other end coupled with the pickup head. The first hollow chamber is connected to the air feed device via a first feed system in which the air feed is secured even if the electric power supply of the electronic device test apparatus is cut off, and the second hollow chamber is connected to the air feed device via a second feed system having a shutoff valve. | 07-30-2009 |
