  • Patent number: 11852366
    Abstract: An air conditioning system includes a first air conditioning device installed in a predetermined space, and a second air conditioning device installed in the predetermined space. The first air conditioning device is configured to change an air state in the predetermined space in accordance with a direction inputted by voice to an input-output device that is voice operable. The second air conditioning device is configured to change the air state in the predetermined space in accordance with the direction inputted by voice to the input-output device. Upon acquisition of direction information indicating the direction not specifying a device, the air conditioning system performs processing in response to the direction with use of an air conditioning device selected from the first air conditioning device and the second air conditioning device in accordance with a predetermined condition set in advance.

  • Publication number: 20220010999
    Abstract: An air conditioning system includes first and second air conditioning devices for a predetermined space, a selector, and a transmitter. The first and second air conditioning device include first and second detectors, and are capable of outputting first and second detection information detected by the first and second detectors. The first and second detection information is relevant to voice direction inputted to a voice operable input-output device. The selector acquires direction information indicating the direction. The selector selects, in order to cope with the direction, one of a first option of selecting the first detection information, a second option of selecting the second detection information, and a third option of selecting both the first and second detection information. The transmitter transmits, to the voice operable input-output device, output information for output by the voice operable input-output device in accordance with the option selected by the selector.

  • Patent number: 6508378
    Abstract: The tank type container of the present invention comprises a long, horizontally placed, drum-shaped tank 3 and a parallelopiped container frame 5 surrounding the tank 3. The tank 3 is provided with a charging tube 20 at the top of the longitudinal front end, a discharging tube 21 at the bottom of the longitudinal back end, and, at the outside, an air-supplying apparatus for supplying compressed air into the tank to discharge polycarbonate resin pellets. The tank 3, the charging tube 20, the discharging tube 21 and the air-supplying apparatus are accommodated in a space surrounded by the container frame 5. The container frame 5 is provided with metal fitting members 6 for locking engagable with a locking mechanism possessed by the bed of a trailer. Therefore, the present tank type container is usable as a large-capacity container for land transportation and sea transportation, allowing for improved efficiency in transportation of polycarbonate resin pellets.
