Title:
HEAT FLOW SENSOR AND DETECTION UNIT BODIES
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2017131541
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately measure a heat source distribution.SOLUTION: There is provided a heat flow sensor for detecting a predetermined heat source distribution under a skin of a living body. The heat flow sensor is constituted so as to comprise: a plurality of heat transfer elements 320 interposing heat insulating materials 330 among the plurality of heat transfer elements 320 adjacent to one another and being disposed in a planar shape; and detection sections for outputting signals in accordance with vertical temperature differences of individual heat transfer elements 320. Further, detection unit bodies of the heat flow sensor for measuring heat flow based on the vertical temperature differences of the individual ones of the plurality of heat transfer elements 320 disposed in the planar shape are constituted so as to comprise: the heat transfer elements 320; and the heat insulating materials 330 disposed around the heat transfer elements 320.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
