Abstract: A management system includes a plurality of resources configured to be electrically connected to an external power supply, and a management device configured to manage the resources. The management device includes a planning unit and a management unit. The planning unit is configured to determine a power balancing plan of each of the resources by using first information on a use schedule of each of the resources and second information indicating a magnitude of an environmental load in a process of generating electric power to be supplied by the external power supply. The management unit is configured to manage the resources to cause each of the resources to operate according to the power balancing plan or a modified power balancing plan in power balancing of the external power supply.

Abstract: A master device that is a fixed device belongs to any of a plurality of areas, and includes: a notification information generation unit that generates notification information including position information of a plurality of fixed devices installed in the area to which the fixed device belongs; and a communication unit that transmits a notification signal including the notification information to a mobile device at a timing different from a timing of transmission of the notification signal from another area, the mobile device being configured to estimate a position based on the notification information.

Abstract: A decorative member that is a three-dimensional modeled article comprises a sheet, a lens part, and an image-forming part. The sheet has a light-transmitting property and has a first sheet surface formed as a curved surface. The lens part is provided so as to curve along the first sheet surface. The lens part comprises a plurality of protruding lenses disposed in parallel. The image-forming part comprises a specific image depiction region in which a specific image is depicted. A minimum value of a width of the specific image depiction region is in a range of 2 mm or more and 20 mm or less. The curved surface has a first region to a third region having different normal directions and has a shape in which one of the normal directions of the respective regions is inclined with respect to a plane including the other two normal directions.

Abstract: Dope is discharged onto the peripheral surface of a rotating casting drum to form a casting bead. A decompression chamber decompresses an upstream side from the casting bead in a moving direction of the casting drum. The decompression chamber includes a sensor unit for detecting a width of the casting bead. A control section shifts outer side seal plates in the width direction based on the width data, such that the outer side seal plates are located in an upstream side from side ends of the casting bead. Upon formation of a casting bead having a new width, the control section shifts the outer side seal plates based on the new width such that the outer side seal plates are located in the upstream side from the side ends of the casting bead having the new width.

Abstract: A casting drum is rotated around a shaft. A peripheral surface of the casting drum moves in an X direction. A dope is discharged through a casting die onto the peripheral surface. A casting bead is formed so as to extend from a discharge port of the casting die to the peripheral surface. A decompression chamber decompresses an upstream side from the casting bead. Air flowing toward the casting bead is generated at the vicinity of the peripheral surface. A lateral labyrinth plate is disposed at a clearance between the decompression chamber and the peripheral surface. The lateral labyrinth plate is provided with a labyrinth groove extending along a width direction of the casting bead. An edge portion for forming the labyrinth groove has a cross section with an acute angle in a direction of air flowing between the decompression chamber and the support.

Abstract: A casting drum is rotated around a shaft. A peripheral surface of the casting drum moves in an X direction. A dope is discharged through a casting die onto the peripheral surface such that a casting bead is formed so as to extend from a discharge port of the casting die to the peripheral surface. A decompression chamber decompresses an upstream side from the casting bead in a moving direction of the casting drum. The decompression chamber is provided with a sensor unit for detecting a width of the casting bead in a Y direction as width data. A control section shifts outer side seal plates in the Y direction based on the width data detected by the sensor unit such that the outer side seal plates are located in an upstream side from side ends of the casting bead in the X direction.
