Abstract: A recording device includes: a drive source; a driven portion having a driven gear; a drive transmission mechanism having a drive gear driven by the drive source and capable of swing between a first position where the drive gear is engaged with the driven gear and a second position where the drive gear is not engaged with the driven gear; and a regulating mechanism capable of swing between a regulating position where swing of the drive transmission mechanism is regulated and a non-regulating position where the swing of the drive transmission mechanism is not regulated. In the recording device, the regulating mechanism is capable of swing around a rotation axis of the driven gear.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention is a printing apparatus, comprising: a carriage on which a printing head is mounted and that can move reciprocally in a first direction; a motor configured to generate driving force; a driving shaft extending in the first direction and driven to rotate by the driving force; a plurality of driving units driven by the driving force transmitted through the driving shaft; a switching unit configured to switch a transmission destination of the driving force in the plurality of driving units in conjunction with the driving shaft; and a contact unit configured to rotate around a rotatably supporting unit so as to be in a contact position in which contact with the carriage is made or a non-contact position in which the contact with the carriage is not made and to move with the carriage in the contact position.

Abstract: A method to perform remote operation of a mobile vehicle is provided. In this method, data of two types of camera images whose imaging ranges partially overlap each other and data of operation content in the remote operation are acquired. Further, based on the data of the operation content, the position in the vertical direction at which the two types of the camera images are combined is set. Further, at least one of the two types of the camera images is moved in the vertical direction such that the two types of the camera images are combined at the set position in the vertical direction, and the two types of the camera images are combined. Then, a composite image of the two types of the camera images is output from a display of a remote operation device.

Abstract: The system acquires a dispatch request including at least a boarding location, a destination, and a payment limit price from a user. When a plurality of dispatch requests matching with a dispatch condition are acquired, the system sets, as the provisional highest dispatch request, the dispatch request having the highest satisfaction in a bid evaluation item among the plurality of dispatch requests. However, when a new dispatch request that matches the dispatch condition and has a higher satisfaction in the bid evaluation item than the provisional highest dispatch request is acquired by the time the vehicle dispatch is completed, the system updates the provisional highest dispatch request. The system directs the vehicle to the boarding location designated by the provisional highest dispatch request, and when the provisional highest dispatch request is updated, the dispatch destination is changed to the boarding location designated by the updated provisional highest dispatch request.
