Abstract: A cleaning tool includes: a first tape including an adhesive surface; a head around which the first tape is wrapped and that presses the adhesive surface against an object; a feeder that transports the first tape and a second tape in contact with the adhesive surface; and a separator that separates the first tape from the second tape during transportation of the first tape to the head.

Abstract: A cleaning tool includes: a tool body; and an extension part extending from the tool body and including a head configured to press a cleaning body against a cleaning target. The head includes a conductor part made of a conductor.

Abstract: An aligner device includes a robot hand, a lifting mechanism, sensors, a misalignment calculating unit, an x-y misalignment correcting unit, and a ? misalignment correcting unit. The robot hand includes vertically aligned hand members each configured to hold a planar workpiece. The lifting mechanism moves planar workpieces transported by the robot hand up from and down to the hand members, respectively. Each of the sensors, vertically spaced apart from each other, has a downward sensor surface to capture the outline of a planar workpiece brought close to the sensor surface by the workpiece lifting mechanism. The misalignment calculating unit calculates, by using the images of the captured outline shapes of the planar workpieces, an amount of positional misalignment of each planar workpiece with a reference position in X, Y and ? directions.
