Abstract: A carrier body of a lift carrier includes: a pair of wheel support mechanisms that supports a first wheel of a vehicle to be transported; a frame-shaped structure connected to the wheel support mechanisms; and one or more lifting units that lift or lower the pair of wheel support mechanisms. The frame-shaped structure includes a frame portion and an upper plate and is open on a lower side of the carrier body. Each of the lifting units includes a wheel support and an air spring. The air spring is interposed between the wheel support and an upper plate. As the air spring expands, the wheel support is rotated about one end of the wheel support rotatably supported by the frame portion, and is deployed out of the frame-shaped structure.

Abstract: Even when one refactoring operation cannot establish a target software structure, an appropriate refactoring operation establishes the target software structure. An improvement proposing device includes: a structure comparator to output, as an improvement object, a difference between a first software structure and a second software structure different in software structure from the first software structure; and an improvement plan examining unit to examine an improvement plan for each improvement portion in the improvement object, the improvement plan being a method for bringing the first software structure closer to the second software structure.

Abstract: A lift carrier (10) includes: a carrier frame that is inserted under a vehicle to be transported; a lifting mechanism that lifts and lowers the carrier frame to lift and lower the vehicle; and a carrier body configured to move the carrier frame. The carrier frame includes a rear end frame that includes a pair of arm fixing plates provided so as to protrude outward in a lateral direction of the vehicle from lower surfaces of the side members. The top plate is fixed to the rear end frame, fixes a plurality of rear end arms at such positions that the rear end arms are sandwiched between the top plate and the arm fixing plates, and fixes an upper end face of a lifting unit that is the lifting mechanism.

Abstract: A lift carrier includes: a bogie frame that is inserted under a transport target vehicle; an elevating mechanism that raises and lowers the bogie frame with each of a plurality of tires supported with arms to raise and lower a vehicle; a bogie body that is able to move the bogie frame to any location. The bogie frame includes a main frame and a rear end frame joined to the main frame. The rear end frame is formed in a rectangular shape by a pair of side members, a first cross member, and a second cross member. The rear end frame includes a first reinforcing member projecting from the first cross member toward a front end side and a second reinforcing member projecting from the first cross member toward a rear end side. The first reinforcing member is joined to a part of the main frame.

Abstract: A vehicle transporting device includes a bogie frame, a device main body, and an upright frame. The upright frame connects a tip portion of the bogie frame and the device main body. The bogie frame includes two frame members and at least two pipes, which are disposed parallel to a longitudinal direction of the bogie frame. The two frame members are disposed parallel to the at least two pipes at a position outside the at least two pipes in a width direction of the bogie frame. The at least two pipes include two pipes facing each other in the width direction. A reinforcing member extending in the width direction is provided at the tip portion of the bogie frame and between the two facing pipes. The two frame members, the reinforcing member, and the upright frame are connected to each other at the tip portion of the bogie frame.

Abstract: A vehicle transporting device includes a bogie frame, a total of eight arms, upper surface plates, and arm driving units. Two arms in a longitudinal direction of the bogie frame of the total of eight arms are paired with each other to support tires. The upper surface plates extend in a width direction of the bogie frame to support the arms. At least six arm driving units are provided on the bogie frame to individually drive at least six arms. Base end portions of pivoting arms are pivotably supported by the upper surface plates in outer peripheral regions of the upper surface plates. Tip portions of the pivoting arms are located outside the upper surface plates. One ends of the arm driving units are attached partway through the pivoting arms. The other ends of the arm driving units are located outside the bogie frame.

Abstract: A source code analysis unit identifies dependency strengths of one or more functions included in a source code. An influence analysis unit identifies one or more transfer functions that will each move to a different subsystem due to refactoring and identifies a dependency strength to be influenced by the refactoring, based on the dependency strengths that have been identified by the source code analysis unit with respect to the one or more transfer functions. A scale calculation unit calculates the scale of the refactoring, based on the dependency strength to be influenced, which has been identified by the influence analysis unit.

Abstract: In a requirement analysis apparatus, a connection analysis unit classifies a plurality of requirement items into groups based on connections between requirement items indicated in item connection information. A subsystem analysis unit extracts the number of subsystems that are reached by tracing the connections from each requirement item, based on the connections between the requirement items indicated in the item connection information and based on the connection between each requirement item indicated in the item connection information and each subsystem. A result display unit displays, for each requirement item of the plurality of requirement items, analysis result information which is set with an identifier identifying a group into which the requirement item has been classified, and the number of subsystems being reached by tracing the connections from the requirement item.

Abstract: A vehicle body front structure and an impact absorbing method thereof, in which an impact force applied to front side members is efficiently absorbed by an intended deformation of a reinforcing member. A part of the impact force applied to the front side members (12) is received by supporting forces in axial directions of a dash cross member (20) and a pillar brace (22). A recess (24) is provided in the dash cross member (20) in the portion thereof connected with the front side member (12). A recess (26) is provided in the pillar brace (22) in the portion thereof connected with the front side member (12). Due to the dash cross member (20) and the pillar brace (22) compressively deforming in the axial directions starting at these recesses (24), (26), the dash cross member (20) and the pillar brace (22) absorb impact force which is applied to the front side members (12) from the front of the vehicle.
