According to the conventional knowledge, a thermal humidity measurement device has problems in which the direction of air flow is limited to one direction is too hard to handle in securing the humidity responsiveness because there are limitations on the mounting direction of the thermal humidity measurement device and the state of air flow. An introduction guide protrudes from an air introduction surface to the outside of a measurement chamber, is parallel to a humidity introduction port surface, and has a portion not in contact with an inlet surface of a humidity introduction tube as seen from any direction to guide the flow of air to the humidity introduction tube from any direction of 360&#xb0;.

Humidity measurement device

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a current detection device which is less susceptible to a disturbance magnetic flux and does not easily cause the decrease of a detectable maximum current. A current detection device is provided with: a first magnetic shield member which has a side wall part that covers one side of a conductor and a protruding part that protrudes toward the other side from the side wall part; and a second magnetic shield member which has a side wall part that covers the other side of the conductor and a protruding part that protrudes toward the one side from the side wall part, and the protruding part of the first magnetic shield member and the protruding part of the second magnetic shield member form a gap therebetween while overlapping each other in the protruding direction of the protruding parts.

Current detection device

After the periphery of the magnetic sensitive element is surrounded by an elastic member, the magnetic sensitive element is mold-formed with resin material. Soft epoxy or gel resin is employed as the elastic member, poured in an element-mounting space and solidified. The magnetic sensitive element is surrounded by silicone rubber. Such construction allows the magnetic sensitive element not to be affected by vibration and allows the elastic member to absorb the stress which is created due to the thermal deformation of the molded resin.
