Provided is a caregiving bed having a variety of usage aspects. A caregiving bed includes a bed main body, and one support platform and another support platform. The bed main body includes a rectangular pad part. Each of the support platforms is provided with an elevator device connected to the pad part to raise and lower the bed main body. Each of the support platforms is provided with a pair of support columns extending upward. A beam member is provided between the support columns of the one support platform and between the support columns of the other support platform. The distance between the pad part and the attachment part decreases when the bed main body is raised by the elevator devices, whereas the distance between the pad part and the attachment part increases when the bed main body is lowered.

A task management system includes: an attribute information acquiring unit acquiring attribute information indicating an attribute of a document corresponding to document data; a billing destination information generator extracting attribute information specifying a billing destination of a cost caused as a price of performance of a task using the document data from the attribute information acquired by the attribute information acquiring unit and generating billing destination information indicating the billing destination on the basis of the extracted attribute information; a process content information storage storing process content information indicating a content of a process performed on the document data by a task terminal used by a task performer; a task content specifier specifying the content of the task performed on the document data by the task performer on the basis of the process content information stored in the process content information storage; a cost correlation storage storing a correlation of the content of the task and the cost caused as the price of the performance of the task; a billing amount information generator generating billing amount information indicating a billing amount for the billing destination on the basis of the content of the task specified by the task content specifier and the correlation stored in the cost correlation storage; and a billing information storage correlating and storing the billing destination information generated by the billing destination information generator and the billing amount information generated by the billing amount information generator.

Task management system

Only the display device stores content files and a management device stores file management information. The content files are managed using the file management information. Because the management device does not store the actual content files, the security policy of an organization is not violated even if the management device is located outside the organization. Furthermore, because the display device stores the content files, the user desire to keep content files locally at hand is satisfied. Furthermore, because file management information consisting of small amounts of data is exchanged between the display system and the management device, the communication environment of the system does not need to be suitable to large data transmissions. Furthermore, because the management device stores the file management information, the storage capacity required by the management device is small.

Information management system, display system, management apparatus and program

An information display system includes a position indicating apparatus that indicates a position and an information display apparatus that displays information and is connected to the position indicating apparatus so as to communicate with the position indicating apparatus. The position indicating apparatus includes: a detecting unit that detects an indicated position; a first storage unit that stores the detected position; and a transmitting unit that transmits positional information indicating the stored position. The information display apparatus includes: a display unit that displays content; a receiving unit that receives the transmitted positional information; an associating unit that associates the positional information with the content; and a second storage unit that stores the positional information and the content associated with each other.

A projection display device having a plurality of transmission screens, each having an image display portion of different dimension, and each having light transmissivity and being provided with a back surface layer having optical directivity on a back surface side; a main body capable of projecting a projection light, and a optical unit that guides the projection light from the projection device main body to the back surface of the transmission screen; and a supporting unit that supports one transmission screen selected from the plural transmission screens and the projection device main body. An image is displayed on the transmission screen by allowing the projection light guided by the optical unit to pass through from the back surface side. One transmission screen is selected, and the selected transmission screen, the projection device main body, the optical unit, and the supporting unit are assembled for use.
