Abstract: A satisfaction level calculation device (10) acquires environmental data detected by each of a plurality of environment sensors (20). The satisfaction level calculation device (10) sets each of a plurality of indexes about a space environment as a target index. The satisfaction level calculation device (10) calculates, from the environmental data acquired by measuring the target index, an individual satisfaction level, which is a satisfaction level of the target index. The satisfaction level calculation device (10) calculates, from the individual satisfaction level about each of the plurality of indexes, an overall satisfaction level, which is an overall satisfaction level about the space environment.

Abstract: An electronic component testing apparatus that tests a DUT (device under test) disposed in a carrier includes: a test head including a socket; and an electronic component handling apparatus that presses the DUT in the carrier against the socket. The socket includes: contactors disposed to correspond to terminals of the DUT that are exposed to the socket via a first opening of the carrier; and a first wall projecting toward the carrier along a pressing direction of the DUT. The electronic component handling apparatus aligns the terminals with the contactors by pressing the DUT against the socket such that a first pressing mechanism of the carrier presses the DUT against the first wall.

Abstract: A contact probe has a tubular plunger which is not made by press working and rounding so that quality control of gold plating or the like is not necessary or not difficult. The tubular plunger is made of a metal tube with a tip that has a reduced outside diameter and notches spaced from the tip. The tip is bent inside the tube and an outer surface of the metal tube, from a bent part to a bottom side, with a small diameter defining a convex part having a larger diameter. The small diameter part of the metal tube is cut off at the end of the small diameter.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes at least one paper supply portion including a roll paper accommodating portion adapted to accommodate a paper roll constituted by winding long paper around a shaft, a roll paper holding portion on which the paper roll is temporarily put, a paper feeding portion adapted to deliver paper from the paper roll accommodated on the roll paper accommodating portion, a horizontal rotating-shaft adapted to support the paper supply portion in a body of the image forming apparatus, the paper supply portion drawn outwardly from the body of the image forming apparatus by being rotated when change of the paper roll is performed, wherein the change of the paper roll can be performed by rotating the paper supply portion to thereby draw out the paper supply portion.

Abstract: A manual testing instrument 1 is configured by an IC device holding member 2 mounted on a socket guide 6 in a removable way and capable of regulating a position of an IC device 7 in the planar direction with respect to connection terminals of a socket 51; and a height regulating device 3, a position of which is variable in the height direction, having a contact member 31 for contacting an upper surface of the IC device 7 and regulating a position of the IC device 7 in the height direction. A position of the contact member 31 in the height direction can be changed by combination of a block 35 formed with a plurality of grooves 351 having different depths and a regulating member 34 formed with an arm portion 342 to fit in a groove 351 on the block 35.
