Abstract: A platform 12 is supported by four belts 22 to 25. Of the belts 22 to 25, a pair of belts 24, 25 is attached to a pivoting arm 26 so that the pivoting arm 26 is pivotable around a pivoting shaft 28. Pivoting of the pivoting arm 26 absorbs, for example, the difference in length between the belts 24, 25. The present invention makes it possible to simplify an elevate and lower driving mechanism of the platform 12 and to easily adjust the lengths of the belts 22 to 25. The present invention also makes it possible to prevent vibration during elevation or lowering and to allow the belts 22 to 25 to stand long use.

Abstract: An image processing device includes a pre-processing unit, an adder, a quantization unit, a post-processing unit and a surrounding error calculating unit. The pre-processing unit calculates an average pixel value of an aggregated pixel formed of a plurality of adjacent pixels for input image data. The adder calculates a correction average pixel value by adding a correction error value to an average pixel value of a target aggregated pixel to be a processing object. The quantization unit carries out a quantization processing of the correction average pixel value at a quantization level of a prescribed number. The post-processing unit divides the aggregated pixel into a plurality of pixels and allocates a pixel value corresponding to the quantization level to each of the divided pixels. The surrounding error calculating unit calculates a correction error value for processing a surrounding target aggregated pixel in accordance with a quantization error generated in the quantization processing.
