Abstract: Imaging elements and imaging devices are disclosed. In one example, a potential of a charge retaining unit that retains a charge generated by photoelectric conversion is adjusted. An imaging element includes a photoelectric conversion unit, a charge retaining unit, a charge transfer unit, a reset unit, an image signal generating unit that generates an image signal, capacitive coupling wiring, and a potential adjustment unit. The capacitive coupling wiring is different from wiring that transmits control signals of the charge transfer unit, the reset unit, and the image signal generating unit and wiring that transmits a generated image signal and is capacitively coupled to the charge retaining unit. The potential adjustment unit applies an adjustment signal for adjusting the potential of the charge retaining unit via the capacitive coupling wiring.

Abstract: Provided is a solid-state imaging device that allows high saturation and maximum transfer performance to be achieved. The solid-state imaging device includes a plurality of unit pixels arranged in a two-dimensional array. The plurality of unit pixels each includes a photoelectric conversion unit that photoelectrically converts incident light and a wiring layer stacked on a surface opposite to a light-incident side surface of the photoelectric conversion unit and having a detection node that detects charge stored at the photoelectric conversion unit. In at least some of the plurality of unit pixels, a center of the detection node is coincident with a light receiving center of the photoelectric conversion unit.

Abstract: A control apparatus may include a processor for calculating a detection efficiency, which is detected by a gamma-ray detection unit, of gamma-rays emitted from a sample stuffed into a first container. A shape of the first container is a shape which surrounds at least a part of the gamma-ray detection unit that detects the gamma-rays. An area inside the first container is divided into a plurality of similar areas which is area similar in shape to each other. The gamma-ray detection unit detects the gamma-rays emitted from the sample included in each the similar areas for each of the plurality of similar areas. The processor calculates the detection efficiency as a similar-area-detection efficiency based on a result of detection performed by the gamma-ray detection unit.

Abstract: A slide rail includes a fixed-side rail, a movable-side rail, and a reinforcing structure that prevents detachment of the movable-side rail from the fixed-side rail. The reinforcing structure includes a fixed-side engaging portion attached to the fixed-side rail, and a movable-side engaging portion attached to the movable-side rail. The fixed-side and the movable-side engaging portions are configured, while allowing sliding of the movable-side rail, to come in contact with each other due to an action by a large load in a detaching direction input between the fixed-side rail and the movable-side rail, and to be engaged with each other to restrict movement of the movable-side rail in the detaching direction. A contact surface, that comes in contact with the movable-side engaging portion, of the fixed-side engaging portion includes surface regions that have mutually different positions in the detaching direction and are provided side by side in a sliding direction.

Abstract: A conveyance seat includes a seat frame, and a rod that extends to a region on a seat inside, and that is connected to the seat frame. The rod is connected to the seat frame via a shaft member. The shaft member includes a tubular portion having a through-hole, and a protruding portion protruding toward an outside in a radial direction from one end of the tubular portion in an axial direction. The shaft member is assembled to the seat frame in a state in which the tubular portion is inserted through the seat frame from a seat outside, and an insertion position of the shaft member in the axial direction is restricted by a position where the protruding portion abuts against an outside surface of the seat frame. The rod is inserted in the axial direction through the through-hole in the shaft member, and assembled to the shaft member.
