Abstract: According to one embodiment, a blade damage evaluation system comprising one or more computers configured to: evaluate inflow and collision of solid particles into a turbine based on design data, maintenance data, and operation data; and calculate a survival rate by applying at least one data included in at least one of the design data, the maintenance data, and the operation data as at least one factor to a formula that models the turbine by survival time analysis, the survival rate indicating that erosion amount of at least one of a plurality of blades does not reach a predetermined threshold at arbitrary time in future.

Abstract: A liquid level detector includes: a magnetic detection element that is provided on a shaft of a frame and detects a rotation angle of a holder; and a magnet that is provided in the holder and applies a magnetic field to the magnetic detection element. The holder includes a pair of flanges protruding in respective opposite directions along the extension direction of an arm in an arm holding part. The frame includes: a locking groove that has two side walls facing each other in a direction along a central axis of the shaft and locks the flanges rotatably; and an arm-facing part that is provided at a position facing a trajectory of the arm. A first space between the arm-facing part and the trajectory of the arm is smaller than a second space between the side walls of the locking groove and the flanges.

Abstract: A blade damage evaluation apparatus includes: a registration unit for design information of a turbine and maintenance information; an acquisition processor for detection data of sensors; a first discrimination processor for first facility states of the turbine at a plurality of past time points; a classification processor for classes Cn of a plurality of first facility states; a first determination processor for first operating state values of the turbine; another registration unit for first damage rates at past time points; a setting processor of a characteristic function for each of the classes Cn; a second discrimination processor for a second facility state of the turbine at the current time point; a second determination processor for a second operating state value of the turbine at the current time point; and an analyzer for a second damage rate at the current time point.

Abstract: A heating cooker according to the present disclosure includes a heating chamber, a heating unit, a capturing unit, a control unit, an appearance characteristic analysis unit that analyzes an appearance characteristic of a heated material, an information reading unit that reads heating control information, an information storage unit in which an acceptable range of the heating control information is registered, and an information determination unit that determines whether the heating control information read by the information reading unit is within the acceptable range. When the heating control information read by the information reading unit is within the acceptable range, the control unit executes heating control based on the heating control information read by the information reading unit.

Abstract: A vehicle seat including: an outside cover; an inside cover; a side airbag module; a side frame; an outside reinforcement cloth that covers a seat width direction outer side of the side airbag module; and an inside reinforcement cloth that is disposed between the side frame and the side airbag module, that covers a seat width direction inner side of the side airbag module, that includes one seat front-rear direction end portion separated into seat upper and lower sides and fixed to the side frame in a manner that avoids the fixing portion, that includes another seat front-rear direction end portion joined to the inside cover at the join portion, and that is configured to transmit tension to the join portion during inflation and deployment of the side airbag.

Abstract: A beverage dispenser according to the present disclosure includes a display unit that displays a menu of beverages to be sold, a person detector that detects a person who selects at least one of the beverages, a person attribute determiner that determines attribute information on the person, recommended product determiner that determines a recommended product based on the attribute information, a display method determiner that determines, based on the attribute information, a display method of the recommended product to be displayed on the display unit, and a recommended product display controller that displays the recommended product on the display unit through the display method. Thus, a specific product can be displayed efficiently in a beverage dispenser to be used by an unspecified number of people.

Abstract: When a user touches a menu on a first hierarchy, a display device shows another menu on a second hierarchy near the touched menu. The user can make a selection on the second hierarchy by successively tracing his or her finger on the menu on the second hierarchy. In a third hierarchy and subsequent hierarchies, still another menu on a corresponding hierarchy is shown near the selected menu on the previous hierarchy.
