Abstract: A liquid ejecting apparatus includes an ejection head, a plurality of liquid containers, a casing, and a fixing portion that fixes the plurality of liquid containers to the casing. The liquid container has a liquid storage portion, a liquid supply portion, and a liquid discharge portion. The liquid supply portion is directly or indirectly coupled to one end portion of a supply passage supplying liquid to the ejection head. The liquid discharge portion discharges liquid stored in the liquid storage portion to the outside. The liquid ejecting apparatus includes a separating mechanism that, in a state where fixing of the liquid container to the casing by the fixing portion is released, separates the liquid container individually from the casing in a first direction which is a direction of separating the liquid supply portion from the one end portion of the supply passage.

Abstract: A liquid ejecting system includes a liquid ejecting apparatus provided with an ejection head that ejects liquid and a liquid container capable of storing liquid supplied to the ejection head, and a liquid collection container. The liquid container includes a liquid storage portion capable of storing liquid, a liquid pouring portion that pours liquid into the liquid storage portion, a liquid supply portion that supplies liquid to the ejection head, and a liquid discharge portion that discharges the liquid stored in the liquid storage portion to the outside. The liquid collection container includes a collection coupling portion capable of coupling with the liquid discharge portion, and a collection container portion that stores liquid collected from the liquid container through coupling between the liquid discharge portion and the collection coupling portion.

Abstract: The voice output device includes an utterance setting unit, a determination unit and a voice overlap prevention unit. The utterance setting unit sets a plurality of utterance points and a plurality of utterance contents for the plurality of utterance points, based on a route a destination of a vehicle. The determination unit determines whether or not a first voice output corresponding to a first utterance content at a first utterance point among the plurality of utterance points and a second voice output corresponding to a second utterance content at a second utterance point among the plurality of utterance points overlap at least partly, based on a speed of the vehicle traveling along the route. The voice overlap prevention unit performs processing for preventing overlap of the first voice output and the second voice output, based on a priority set in advance, when it is determined that the first voice output and the second voice output overlap.

Abstract: An information providing device is provided which can provide necessary guidance in an intuitively and easy-to-recognize form even when guidance is mainly by audio or sound. In searching for a route destination, when the distance to the destination is within a prescribed distance, guidance that includes information indicating the distance to the destination is provided by audio, and when the destination is farther than said prescribed distance, guidance that includes address information indicating the address of the destination is provided by audio (steps S28, S30, S17).

Abstract: The present invention provides an information provision device and the like capable of reliably providing necessary guidance information while reducing the amount of audio information that is necessary for processing. The information provision device is provided with: a guidance voice output control unit 1 and a speaker 10 which output a guidance voice; a microphone 11 and a collected sound transmission unit 2 which collect sounds that are made after the guidance voice starts to be output, wherein the guidance voice output control unit 1 and the speaker 10 output re-guidance voice corresponding to the guidance voice, on the basis of the result of determination of whether the collected sounds include a specific sound.

Abstract: The objective of the present invention is to provide an information providing device and the like capable of simplifying entry into a road to be entered, even using guidance by voice or the like. This information providing device is provided with: a route searching unit 1 which acquires both road data 23a and intersection data 23b; and a guidance voice generating unit 2 which, on the basis of the acquired road data 23a and the like, outputs, while moving along a wider road, a simplified guidance voice for moving to a narrower road, in such a way that it is simple to enter the narrower road from the wider road.

Abstract: The information processing device provides information relating to a movement of a mobile body. The receiving unit receives an information request. The load determination unit determines a load of a driver with respect to a driving of the mobile body. The voice output unit outputs, in response to the information request, a basic information when the load is large, and an additional information in addition to the basic information when the load is small.

Abstract: A disclosed voice guidance device or server device includes a route information acquisition unit, a position information acquisition unit, a voice guiding unit, and a notification unit. The route information acquisition unit is configured to acquire route information indicative of a route on which a moving body travels. The position information acquisition unit is configured to acquire position information of the moving body. The voice guiding unit is configured to perform a voice guidance relating to the route. The notification unit is configured to perform a notification by voice that the moving body is traveling along the route, if the moving body is travelling along the route and the voice guiding unit has not performed the voice guidance during travel of the moving body for a predetermined distance or for a predetermined amount of time.
