Abstract: A tool transport system equipped with a tool storage portion that does not depend on the tool standard is awaited. The tool transport system includes a plurality of machine tools, and a tool storage portion having a plurality of holding parts. Each of the plurality of holding parts has a common holding mechanism capable of holding any of a plurality of tool holders. The tool transport system includes a transport device. A first tool holder of the plurality of tool holders has a common connection mechanism, and a first attachment mechanism. A second tool holder of the plurality of tool holders has the common connection mechanism, and a second attachment mechanism to which a second tool to be used in a second machine tool of the plurality of machine tools is attachable.

Abstract: A display driver IC (200) comprises: a digital circuit including a logic circuit (2); an output unit (11) for outputting, to the outside, a drive control signal with a level corresponding to the output from the logic circuit; and at least one of a first decision unit (21) for determining whether or not an abnormality is present in the register value in a register in the digital circuit and a second decision unit (22) for determining whether or not the level of the drive control signal is the level corresponding to the output from the logic circuit.

Abstract: A horizontal machining center serving as a machine tool includes: a bed; a front-side guide rail shaped to extend linearly along an upper surface of the bed and attached to the bed; and a column provided on the upper surface of the bed and fixed to the bed. The column has a facing portion arranged to face an end of the front-side guide rail in an X-axis direction in which the front-side guide rail linearly extends. The facing portion is provided with a hole through which the front-side guide rail can be inserted. By such a configuration, a machine tool with excellent workability during removal of an elongate body is provided.

Abstract: A power supply apparatus of the present invention comprises: a constant voltage generation section (first DAC (21), second DAC (22), resistor (R2), resistor (R3)) that generates a positive constant voltage (Va); a pulse voltage generation section (pulse oscillator (23), amplifier (24)) that generates a positive pulse voltage (Vb); a capacitor (C1) of which one end is connected to the output terminal of the pulse voltage generation section; and a diode (D1) of which an anode is connected to the other end of the capacitor (C1), and of which a cathode is connected to the output terminal of the constant voltage generation section. A positive-negative bipolar pulse voltage (Vc) is outputted from the other end of the capacitor (C1). Thus, it is possible to generate a positive-negative bipolar pulse voltage with a simple and small-scale circuit configuration.
