Abstract: A resource collection device of a resource collection system has a resource collection pipe, a protection pipe, and a coiled tubing device. The protection pipe is disposed around the resource collection pipe and protects the resource collection pipe. The coiled tubing device is fed from a winding reel disposed on the sea surface or inside the protection pipe by way of a feeding device and penetrates a side wall of the protection pipe to extend from the interior to the exterior. The resource collection system cracks the sea floor layer by way of: supplying undiluted solutions of foaming material, fuel gas, and air containing oxygen into the sea floor layer through the coiled tubing device; mixing the undiluted solutions of foaming material together to expand in an atmosphere that includes fuel gas and air; and causing the fuel gas accumulated in the hollows of the foaming material to explosively combust.

Abstract: There is provided an aiming adjustment method for a vehicle headlamp which performs aiming adjustment based on a reference point on a light-dark boundary of a light distribution pattern, the method includes setting, as the reference point, an intersection between a vertical light-dark boundary of a part of multi-divided light distribution patterns which are to be synthesized to form a high-beam light distribution pattern and a horizontal light-dark boundary of a low-beam light distribution pattern.
