Abstract: A stacking apparatus includes a stacking stage, a correction mechanism, a driving mechanism, and a linear-motion mechanism. The stacking stage has a stacking surface, on which objects are to be stacked in layers. The correction mechanism moves the stacking stage in a direction parallel to the stacking surface. The driving mechanism moves the stacking stage in a direction perpendicular to the stacking surface. The linear-motion mechanism connects the stacking stage and the correction mechanism, gives freedom of movement in the direction perpendicular to the stacking surface and constrains movement in the direction parallel to the stacking surface. The driving mechanism includes a main body part that does not overlap the stacking stage when viewed in the direction perpendicular to the stacking surface, and an arm part that extends from the main body part and between the stacking stage and the correction mechanism and supports the stacking stage.

Abstract: In a manufacturing method for manufacturing a dispersion body, a plurality of types of solid particles, water, and a liquid dispersant are mixed. In the manufacturing method, at least two types of the solid particles and at least one type of the dispersant that are selected based on a material type selection method are used, and at least an optimal amount of the dispersant that is determined based on an optimal amount determination method is added and mixed. The material type selection method is based on a Hansen solubility parameter distance to water, Hansen spheres of the solid particles, and a Hansen sphere of the dispersant.

The solid particles and the liquid are selected such that Hansen spheres of at least two types of the solid particles and a Hansen sphere of at least one type of the liquid mutually overlap, and a Hansen solubility parameter distance to water of at least one type of the solid particles of which the Hansen spheres overlap that of the liquid is greatest among all solid particles used in manufacturing of the dispersion body, and used to manufacture the dispersion body.

Abstract: A honeycomb structure provided with cell walls which partition the inside of a cylindrical outer skin having openings at both ends, and a large number of cells which are surrounded by the cell walls and provided in parallel in an axial direction of the cylindrical outer skin. At least part of the large number of cells include a protruding piece. The protruding piece forms a through-hole which penetrates the cell wall, and a protruding wall which protrudes inward of the cell at an angle from an edge of the through-hole.

Abstract: An optical disc driving apparatus (300) comprises a complementing means (302), an interleaving means (303), and an emission means (304). The complementing means (302) adds complementary data having a predetermined size to the head of reverse-interleaved data (D002 and D003) obtained by reverse-interleaving drawing data (D001) for drawing an image onto an optical disc (400). The interleaving means (303) generates interleaved data (D005) by interleaving reverse-interleaved data (D004) to which the complementary data is added. The emission means (304) emits laser light according to the interleaved data (D005) thus generated.

Abstract: An image display system produces a color image by arranging a color shutter capable of time-divisionally switching a plurality of colors to be displayed, in front of a monochrome image display. This image display system comprises: a self-luminous image display part for time-divisionally displaying monochrome images corresponding to three primary colors; and a color display part for time-divisionally coloring and outputting the monochrome images which formed on the side of the light outgoing surface of the self-luminous image display part and which correspond to the three primary colors.

Abstract: A ground detection apparatus for electric automobile having a high-voltage DC power supply (31) which is electrically insulated from a body and a three-phase AC motor (33) which is driven by a DC voltage from the high-voltage DC power supply. A ground detection signal consisting of a square waveform is supplied to the DC power supply circuit through a detection resistor and a coupling capacitor, a voltage amplitude of a ground detection point serving as a connection point between the detection resistor (3) and the coupling capacitor (4) is detected, the detected voltage amplitude is converted into an insulation resistance on the basis of the relationship between a preset voltage amplitude and a preset insulation resistance, and levels of insulation resistance deterioration of the high-voltage DC power supply are detected by comparing the converted insulation resistance with a preset ground decision threshold value.
