Abstract: Article transport vehicles have, as operation states, a first state of traveling toward a transport destination that is a destination set for receiving an article or delivering an article, and a second state in which a transport destination has not been set. A controller divides the entirety of a travelable route into a plurality of set areas and executes imbalance reduction control to arrange standby transport vehicles such that imbalance of the densities of standby transport vehicles present in the areas is within a predetermined range, the standby transport vehicles being article transport vehicles in the second state.

Abstract: A liquid ejecting apparatus includes: a liquid ejecting head configured to eject a liquid; a liquid flowing portion coupled to the liquid ejecting head and configured to flow the liquid; and a frame that houses the liquid ejecting head and the liquid flowing portion. The frame is provided with a passage hole configured to pass the liquid flowing portion along a depth direction. when viewed in the depth direction, a portion of the liquid flowing portion disposed outside the passage hole is configured to be deformed.

Abstract: A reference cost and a variable cost are included in a link cost for setting a set route for causing a setting vehicle to travel to a destination on a travelable route. A controller obtains an adjusted variable cost by adjusting a variable cost using a priority adjustment value set higher as a priority for arriving more quickly at a destination decreases, determines a link cost for each link in a candidate route, which is a candidate for a set route for a setting vehicle, based on the adjusted variable cost and the reference cost, obtains a route cost for each candidate route based on the link costs, and sets the set route based on the route costs of the candidate routes.

Abstract: Disclosed is an agrochemical-containing pressure sensitive adhesive tape 10, including a substrate 11 and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer 12 provided on the substrate 11. The pressure sensitive adhesive layer 12 contains an emulsion pressure sensitive adhesive and a systemic agrochemical. Preferably, the emulsion pressure sensitive adhesive is an acrylic emulsion pressure sensitive adhesive or a rubber-based emulsion pressure sensitive adhesive containing latex rubber as a main component. The agrochemical is preferably at least one of an insecticide, a bactericide, an insecticidal and bactericidal agent, a herbicide and a plant growth regulator.

Abstract: The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for surface protection has a three-layered film formed by laminating a layer A, a layer B and a layer C in this order and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed on the layer C; wherein the layer A contains a polyethylene in an amount of at least 60% by weight based on a total weight of the layer A; the layer B contains a polypropylene type polymer in an amount of at least 50% by weight of based on a total weight of the layer B; and the layer C contains a hydrogenated styrene/diene type hydrocarbon copolymer in an amount of at least 10% by weight based on the total weight of the layer C. This sheet has excellent weathering resistance to undergo neither chalking nor fracture in the substrate at peeling, even after a prolonged outdoor exposure, develops less corona odor to enable extended operation of applying it, and can be manufactured inexpensively with reduced manufacturing process, since no anchor coat treating procedure is required.

Abstract: In order to allow easy estimation of the operating condition of a magnet by a technician of any skill level, and to allow accurate prediction of a potential failure beforehand, a data processing section 52 is provided for resolving pressure data for a cooling helium gas, level (remaining amount) data for a liquid helium, first temperature data for a first stage of a refrigerator, second temperature data for a second stage of the refrigerator, and third temperature (room temperature) data for an equipment room 13 in which a compressor 40 is placed, as prespecified parameters, into a plurality of elements, using the elements as magnet data, calculating the Mahalanobis distance D2 of the normalized magnet data, and comparing the calculated Mahalanobis distance D2 with data stored in a database 53 obtained by developing magnet data in a normal condition into a Mahalanobis reference space to estimate the operating condition.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for surface protection, which has a substrate containing an ethylene/propylene copolymer and an ethylene/1-butene copolymer in a weight ratio of 60:40 to 90:10, and an adhesive composition for pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets for surface protection, which contains 5 to 30 parts by weight of a rosin resin tackifier based on 100 parts by weight of a blend comprising 50 to 100% by weight of a polyisobutylene and/or a butyl rubber and 50 to 0% by weight of a polybutene.

Abstract: In a liquid crystal projector having a light source and liquid crystal panel units disposed in the optical paths, reflecting means is disposed on the emanating side of the projector for reflecting the light in a direction approximately perpendicular to the optical axis, and change-over means is coupled to the liquid crystal panel units for reversing the lateral directions of images.

Abstract: In a flat luminescent lamp fitted to an under surface of the liquid crystalline TV display panel to backlight its image, a pair of the electrode plates 14 of cold cathode type are opposingly positioned in the cavity. The electrode plate has a concave cross section, auxiliary electrodes on each electrode plate project toward the other electrode plate from both terminations and has a lead plate projecting outwardly in the same direction as the extract tube of the lamp.
