A projection system includes a projection device that projects drawings individually onto a plurality of work spots in a work site. The projection device includes a driver that changes an orientation of the projection device. When drawings are individually projected onto a first work spot and a second work spot in a stated sequence, and the second work spot is outside a projection angle that is projectable by the projection device, the driver changes the orientation of the projection device to include the second work spot within the projection angle after work at the first work spot is finished. The first work spot and the second work spot are included in the plurality of work spots.

Projection system, projection device and projection method

A projection system includes: a projection device that includes a laser scanner and projects one or more drawings individually onto work spots in a work site; and an adjustment unit configured to adjust at least one of (i) a quantity of the one or more drawings to be simultaneously projected by the projection device or (ii) a setting parameter regarding a mode of projection performed by the projection device.

A projection method, which is executed by a projection device, for projecting drawing data for a building onto a projection plane of the building under construction includes: measuring a distance from each of three or more points which are not aligned in a straight line and are on either of two non-parallel straight lines on the projection plane to the projection device using a distance meter included in the projection device; and projecting the drawing data onto a projection position on the projection plane which is determined based on the distance measured and the angle of the distance meter at the time at which the distance is measured.

A heating cooker includes an inner pot () for accommodating therein a heating object to be heated, a heating cooker body () for accommodating the inner pot () therein, a heating part () attached to the heating cooker body () and serving for heating the heating object, a lid () which is openably/closably attached on top of the heating cooker body () and which can be closed so as to cover the inner pot (), a rotator () rotatably placed between the heating cooker body () and the lid (), stirrers (A,B) which are attached to the rotator () and which are switchable between a stirring state of being in contact with the heating object set in the inner pot () and a non-stirring state of being apart from the heating object set in the inner pot (), and a notification part () for notifying which the stirrers (A,B) are in the stirring state or in the non-stirring state while the lid () is closed.

A mobile vehicle provided with moving means and a moving control device automatically travels while detecting an advance distance and a turning angle by means of one optical displacement sensor. The mobile vehicle comprises a moving unit () for moving a body (), one optical displacement sensor () as a displacement sensor provided on the body (), and a moving control device for controlling the moving unit () based on a moving distance detected by the optical displacement sensor (). The moving control device determines the distance of rectilinear movement and a turning angle of the body () from an amount detected by the optical displacement sensor (). The optical displacement sensor () picks up patterns or the like on a traveling floor surface at specified time intervals and detects a moving distance by comparing images before and after the specified time.

A steam generating apparatusincluding: a vaporizing container; a heaterfor heating the vaporizing container; a feed pumpfor feeding water from a reservoir tankinto the vaporizing container; a drain valvefor draining water out of the vaporizing containerthrough a drain pipe; a temperature detecting meansfor detecting temperature of the vaporizing container; and a controllerfor controlling the heater, the feed pump, the drain valve, and the like. After completion of steam generating operation, water remaining inside the vaporizing containeris drained after the temperature of the vaporizing containerhas lowered to 60&#xb0; C.

A foldable tray is angularly displaceably supported at an end portion of a sheet tray of a printer body so as to be angularly displaceable about a supporting shaft, which foldable tray is capable of being folded onto an upper surface side of the sheet tray and is angularly displaced downwardly from the sheet stacking position when a force which exceeds the maximum loading weight of sheets is applied to the foldable tray. Further, the sheet tray comprises a stopper for holding the foldable tray at a sheet stacking position and at a downwardly displaced position by abutting the foldable tray against the stopper.
