Abstract: It provides the measurement data of each portion of the target object with a high accuracy. The measurement data calculation apparatus 1020 includes an obtaining unit 1024A, an extraction unit 1024B, a conversion unit 1024C, and a calculation unit 1024D. The obtaining unit 1024A obtains the image data in which the target object is photographed and the full length data of the target object. The extraction unit 1024B extracts the shape data indicating the shape of the target object from the image data. The conversion unit 1024C converts and silhouettes the shape data based on the full length data. The calculation unit 1024D uses the shape data converted by the conversion unit 1024C to calculate the measurement data of each portion of the target object.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a compound having a STING agonistic activity, which may be expected to be useful as an agent for the prophylaxis or treatment of STING-related diseases. The present disclosure relates to a compound represented by the formula (I): wherein each symbol is as defined in the description, or a salt thereof.

Abstract: A storage battery management device according to one embodiment includes a hardware processor functioning as an acquisition unit, a calculation unit, and a display control unit. The acquisition unit acquires, as current operation state data of a storage battery system including a plurality of storage batteries, charge/discharge power, a cell voltage, a charge/discharge current, and a temperature of a battery board of the storage battery system. The calculation unit calculates, by using a digital model for simulating operation of the storage battery system, a chargeable/dischargeable capacity, a State of Charge (SOC) level change amount, and an SOC maintainable charge/discharge amount being a charge/discharge amount maintaining an SOC level within a predetermined range. The display control unit causes a display unit to display the chargeable/dischargeable capacity, the SOC level change amount, and the SOC maintainable charge/discharge amount.

Abstract: A parts feeding apparatus of the piezoelectric drive type consists of a base, a plurality of bimorph cell assemblies each including a leaf spring the lower end of which is fixed to the base and two piezoelectric elements each fixed on respective sides of each leaf spring to vibrate each leaf spring when AC voltage is applied to the piezoelectric elements, and a conveyor connected with the lower end of each connecting member. Furthermore, the upper end of each bimorph cell assembly is connected with the lower end of each connecting member so that the vibration of each bimorph cell assembly is transmitted to the conveyor to feed articles placed on it. Each connecting member has lower bending stiffness than each leaf spring by forming one or more semicircular cut-out portions in it or selecting its thickness or its material so that an external force acting on each piezoelectric element in vibration is decreased.

Abstract: A refrigerating apparatus for individually refrigerating a plurality of chambers by a single compressor is disclosed. The refrigerating apparatus includes a plurality of evaporators which are disposed one in each of the respective chambers, and are coupled with each other in parallel. An electromagnetic valve is coupled to each evaporator in series to control the flow of refrigerant, and an expansion valve such as a capillary tube also is coupled to each evaporator in series, to thereby form a plurality of electromagnetic valve-expansion valve-evaporator combinations. An additional heat exchanger is disposed in the refrigerating circuit in parallel with the parallel electromagnetic valve-expansion valve-evaporator combinations through a valve device. The valve device allows adjustment of the flow of refrigerant to the evaporators and the additional heat exchanger to maintain the chambers at their desired temperature without varying the capacity of the compressor.
