Gas ejection apparatus

A gas ejection apparatus ejects gas by use of a compressor that compresses the gas, and the gas ejection apparatus includes a detector and a microcomputer. The detector detects a signal relating to an ejection target device. The microcomputer controls the compressor to change a number of times of ejection of the gas in accordance with an amount of time elapsing between a detection of the signal by the detector and a next detection of the signal by the detector.

Tool cleaning apparatus
11697140 · 2023-07-11 · ·

A cleaning apparatus for a tool is provided. The cleaning apparatus includes a support structure having a first base portion, and a nozzle disposed on the first base portion of the support structure. The cleaning apparatus further includes circuitry that is communicatively coupled to an electronically-actuated fluid release mechanism and a robot. The circuitry determines a count of operation cycles of the tool coupled to an end-effector of the robot and instructs the robot to align the tool with the nozzle. The instruction is provided to the robot based on a determination that the determined count is greater than or equal to a threshold number. The circuitry controls the electronically-actuated fluid release mechanism based on whether the tool is aligned with the nozzle, to release a cleaning fluid through the nozzle for a first time-duration to clean the tool.

Mass spectrometer
11551920 · 2023-01-10 · ·

A mass spectrometer provided with an ionization chamber (10) in which ionization is performed on a sample by laser ionization, includes an opening part (12) that is provided on a side wall of the ionization chamber (10), and includes a door (13); a ventilation port (14) provided in a wall of the ionization chamber (10), which is opposite to the opening port (12); and a gas supplier (64), (67) for supplying high-pressure cleaning gas to the ionization chamber (10) through the ventilation port (14). In this configuration, the high-pressure cleaning gas flows into the ionization chamber (10) from the gas supplier (64), (67) while the door (13) is opened, thereby blowing up particles including fragments of bacterial cells, which are piled up on a floor of the ionization chamber (10), and/or sweeping particles floating near the floor, so as to discharge the particles to the outside.
