Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a communication interface for receiving order information from a user terminal and a memory unit for storing the received order information in association with a terminal identifier of the user terminal and an order status indicator. The order status indicator identifies one of a plurality of stages in a transaction from order reception to handover of an item to the user. A processor is configured to update the order status associated with the order information in response to an instruction to change an order status that is received from a store terminal. The processor causes a notification to be transmitted the user terminal when the order status associated with the order information is changed to indicate the item is ready for handover.

Abstract: According to an embodiment, an information processing device includes a control unit that is configured to store information relating to items of a plurality of stores at a shared facility and information relating to orders for the items of the plurality of stores. The control unit receives, from a terminal, an order for items of the plurality of stores. After a settlement process of the order is completed, the control unit transmits a settlement completion notice to the terminal and causes the terminal to display a settlement completion screen including a receipt request operator for transmitting a receipt request from the terminal. If the receipt request is transmitted from the terminal, and the order includes items from different stores in the plurality of stores, the control unit transmits separate electronic receipts for each of the different stores from which an item was ordered.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a server device for a congestion notification system includes a communication interface to receive a request for congestion information from a user terminal, a storage unit for storing congestion information, and a processor.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a server includes a storage unit, a communication interface to connect to store servers and customer terminals, and a control unit. The control unit is configured to receive an order from a customer terminal via the communication interface for an item at a store in a plurality of stores at a facility shared by the plurality of stores and output a seat congestion information request to the customer terminal. The seat congestion information request causes the customer terminal to display a request on the customer terminal for an input of congestion information indicating a congestion state of shared seats at the facility. The control unit receives the congestion information from the customer terminal device and tracks the congestion state of the shared seats based on the received congestion information.

Abstract: An upper holding device holds a substrate in a horizontal attitude without rotating the substrate. A lower holding device rotates a substrate while holding the substrate by suction. A substrate held by the upper holding device is cleaned with use of a cleaning liquid, and a substrate held by the lower holding device is cleaned with use of a cleaning liquid. Gas in a processing space is exhausted by exhaust equipment of a factory through an exhaust system. When a substrate is held by the upper holding device, gas in the processing space is not exhausted or gas in the processing space is exhausted at a first flow rate. Gas in the processing space is exhausted at a second or third flow rate that is higher than the first flow rate when the substrate is held by the lower holding device.

Further, the substrate alignment device includes a first pressing member that is arranged to be opposite to the first support member in a plan view, and moves the substrate by pressing one portion of the outer peripheral end of the substrate in a first direction directed from the second support member toward the first support member with the substrate supported by the first and second support members. The first support member includes a movement limiter that limits movement of the substrate in the first direction past a predetermined prescribed position.

Abstract: A cleaner comes into contact with a lower-surface center region of a substrate held by a first holder, so that the lower-surface center region is cleaned. The cleaner comes into contact with a lower-surface outer region of the substrate rotated by a second holder, so that the lower-surface outer region of the substrate is cleaned. During cleaning of the lower-surface center region, the second holder is rotated about a vertical axis while not holding the substrate. Alternatively, during cleaning of the lower-surface center region, the gas injector arranged between the cleaner and the second holder injects gas toward the substrate from a first height spaced apart from the substrate by a predetermined distance. Further, during drying of the lower-surface center region, the gas injector injects gas toward the substrate from a second height closer to the substrate than the first height.

Abstract: A lower-surface center region of a substrate held by a first holder is cleaned by a cleaner. A lower-surface outer region of the substrate rotated by a second holder is cleaned by the cleaner. A mobile base provided with the second holder and the cleaner is moved in a horizontal plane such that a reference position of the first holder coincides with a center axis of the second holder in a plan view when the substrate is received and transferred between the first holder and the second holder, and is moved in the horizontal plane such that the cleaner overlaps with the lower-surface center region of the substrate held by the first holder and a center axis of the cleaner coincides with a first portion different from a center of the substrate in the plan view when the lower-surface center region is cleaned.

Abstract: A substrate is held in a horizontal attitude by a substrate holder. At a processing position, a lower surface of the substrate held by the substrate holder is cleaned by a lower-surface brush. The lower-surface brush is cleaned by a brush cleaner at a waiting position that overlaps with the substrate held by the substrate holder in an up-and-down direction and is below a processing position. The lower-surface brush is lifted and lowered by a lower-surface brush lifting-lowering driver between the processing position and the waiting position.

Abstract: A first cleaner cleans an upper surface of a substrate by scanning above the substrate to pass through a first point in an outer edge of the substrate in a plan view. A second cleaner cleans an outer peripheral end of the substrate by coming into contact with a second point in the outer edge of the substrate in a plan view. A virtual first straight line passing through the first point and the second point and a virtual second straight line passing through a center of the substrate and is parallel to the first straight line are defined. A third cleaner is arranged below the substrate and opposite to the first cleaner and the second cleaner with the second straight line located between the third cleaner, and the first cleaner and the second cleaner, and cleans a lower surface of the substrate.
