Abstract: (PROBLEM) To provide a seamless conveyor belt comprising knit fabric. (SOLUTION MEANS) A seamless conveyor belt employing monofilament made up of continuous fiber at filament constituting core yarn; being made up of weft-knit or warp-knit in which there is mutual intertwining of filament; flexural stress and heat causing monofilament at core yarn to undergo plastic deformation at locations of entanglement; being a seamless knit belt (1a) comprising a knit pattern (8) which is weft-knit or warp-knit; being a knit pattern (8) in which pitch (Ps) of stitch loops in a width direction (18) is smaller than pitch (Pg) of stitch loops in a conveying direction (17) of the seamless knit belt; mutually contacting loops (9) and filament undergoing deformation; entangled regions of filament being maintained; fraying at side ends of the knit belt (1a) during conveyance by the conveyor belt being prevented; spacing of pitch (Ps) of stitch loops in the width direction (18) being small; and strength being improved.

Abstract: A conveyor belt comprising knit fabric of high practicality, and an apparatus which uses such a conveyor belt. The conveyor belt includes weft knit fabric. Suction of air from below belt(s) is used to convey sheet-like and/or small thing(s) which are object(s) to be conveyed that are placed. The strength of filament(s) of knit fabric at side end(s) is adequately maintained. Loops exhibit mutual intertwining of filament(s) Pitch Ps of loops in width direction is formed so as to be smaller than pitch Pg of loops in conveying direction. Adjacent loops are mutually flattened and filament(s) of loop(s) are entangled, mutual intertwining of filament(s) causes knit fabric to have suppressed percentage elongation and increased strength in conveying direction, fraying of filament(s) at side end(s) of belt(s) is prevented, and strength is adequately increased.

Abstract: A translation apparatus capable of producing an optimal translation of an input sentence is provided.

Abstract: A translation apparatus allowing a user to confirm a range of a translated sentence in corresponding relation to a range of an original sentence selected by the user is provided. The translation apparatus translates a first sentence of a first language to a second sentence of a second language using a parallel translation template. The translation apparatus includes a display control unit displaying the first and second sentences on an output unit, a detecting unit detecting selection of one or a plurality of words/phrases included in the first sentence, and a specifying unit specifying a plurality of words/phrases corresponding to the selected words/phrases, at least based on the parallel translation template. The display control unit changes manner of display of the corresponding words/phrases when the corresponding words/phrases are specified.

Abstract: A translation apparatus capable of producing an optimal translation of an input sentence is provided.

Abstract: Provided is a conversation assistance device which enables a user to easily search for a desired content. The conversation assistance device includes an input unit, a memory unit, a processing unit, and an output unit. A template database stored in the memory unit includes a plurality of templates. Each of the templates associates category sentences in a plurality of languages with a keyword. A keyword is specified by one keyword expression and one or more character inputs (keyword reading). When the input unit receives any of the plurality of character inputs, an example sentence selection unit retrieves one of the templates having a keyword corresponding to the input character.
