Abstract: A shelf inventory management system includes: a shelf installed in a house; a sensor that detects that an article is taken out from the shelf; a management unit that manages an inventory status of the article stored in the shelf, based on a detection result of the sensor; and a terminal for notifying a user of information related to the article stored in the shelf. The management unit stores, for each user, a taken out amount of each health-related product a consumption amount of which affects health, of the article stored in the shelf, and is able to output the taken out amount of each health-related product to the terminal.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a detection system used in a case where a transport robot transports a package in a state where the package in which an opening portion of a container is closed by a lid is placed on a placing portion of the transport robot. The detection system is configured to detect that the lid is opened.

Abstract: A rack includes: a casing; M pairs of supports that are provided inside the casing so as to extend in a depth direction and arrayed at regular intervals in a predetermined direction; and a lock mechanism. The rack can house all returnable containers of one or more prespecified sizes along the respective pairs of supports. The M pairs of supports are arrayed in N rows in an orthogonal direction orthogonal to the predetermined direction. The lock mechanism is configured such that moving first and second shafts that are provided for the respective rows and for the respective tiers, respectively, so as to be movable in the predetermined direction can switch between engagement and disengagement between branches of the first and second shafts and first and second holes, respectively, of the returnable containers.

Abstract: A lower vehicle-body structure of a vehicle may include: a floor panel; a side sill; and a frame member that extends in the front-rear direction on the vehicle-width-direction inner side of the side sill and includes a front-rear extended portion that is in abutment against the side sill on the vehicle-width-direction inner side and extends in the vehicle front-rear direction along the side sill. The front-rear extended portion may include: a bottom face portion; an inner wall portion; and an inner-side flange that extends to the vehicle-width-direction inner side from a distal end portion of the inner wall portion and is joined to the floor panel. Deformation facilitating facilitators that facilitate deformation of the bottom face portion in the vehicle width direction when a collision load in the vehicle width direction is input may be formed in the bottom face portion.

Abstract: A rack includes: a casing; M (an integer not less than three) pairs of supports that are provided inside the casing so as to extend in a depth direction and arrayed at regular intervals in a predetermined direction (a height direction or a left-right direction); and a lock mechanism. The rack can house all returnable containers of one or more prespecified sizes along the respective pairs of supports. The lock mechanism includes N (an integer not less than two and meeting N<M?2N?1) shafts that are movable in the predetermined direction. Branches are provided on the shafts such that a combination of engagement and disengagement between the branches and holes provided in protrusions of the returnable container is different in each of the returnable containers housed on the respective M pairs of supports.

Abstract: A probe set is provided which can assay larger amounts of samples in a simpler manner and enables typing of all HLA-DR types currently known to be present in Japanese. The probe set comprises part or all of oligonucleotides having the following sequences 1 to 16 or complementary strands thereof:sequence 1: CGGTTGCTCGGAAAGATGCATCsequence 2: ACACTCCCTCTTTGGCTGsequence 3: GGCCGGGTGGACAACTACsequence 4: ATGTTTAACCTGCTCCAAsequence 5: CCTGATGAGGAGTACTGGAAsequence 6: AGCTACTGCGCTTCGACsequence 7: CGTAGAGTACTCCAAGAAsequence 8: CTTATACTTACCCTGCCAsequence 9: AGACAGGCGGGCCCTsequence 10: TCAAACTTATCCTGCTTCsequence 11: AAACTTAACCTCCTCCAAsequence 12: ACTCTACGTCTGAGTGTCsequence 13: ACGGGTGAGTGTTATTTCsequence 14: GACCTCCTGGAAGACAGGsequence 15: ACATCCTGGAAGACGAGCsequence 16: CCCGTAGTTGTGTCTGCA.
