An information processing apparatus autonomously determines a pick-up location for an on-demand bus. The information processing apparatus has a controller configured to determine a first location that is not predicted to be crowded with people as the pick-up location based on a user's preferred pick-up location and first information related to locations within the operation area of the on-demand bus that are predicted to be crowded with people. The controller of the information processing apparatus selects the first location thus determined as the pick-up location for the on-demand bus.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method

A control apparatus includes a controller configured to acquire reservation information including a reservation time of a medical checkup for a user and a site of the medical checkup, acquire boarding positional information indicating a boarding position of the user, and generate a dispatch plan for a vehicle, that the user boards to travel between the boarding position and the site, based on the reservation information and the boarding positional information.

Control apparatus, control method, and non-transitory computer readable medium

An information processing apparatus acquires position information of a user terminal, and causes the user terminal to issue a first notification by audio or vibration in a case where a distance between a first point where a user of the user terminal is to get on board a vehicle provided for a predetermined service and the user terminal falls to or below a first distance, the first notification indicating that the first point is getting closer. The information processing apparatus causes the user terminal to issue a second notification by audio or vibration in a case where the distance between the first point and the user terminal falls to or below a second distance that is smaller than the first distance, the second notification indicating that the first point is getting closer.

Information processing apparatus, and method

A controller of an information processing apparatus is configured to determine a stop location for a health checkup vehicle at which travel distances required for patients of health checkups to be performed on the health checkup vehicle to travel to the health checkup vehicle are equal to or less than a predetermined threshold, calculate a parking allowable number at the stop location or a parking allowable number at a parking lot in a vicinity of the stop location, and suggest, in a case in which the patients include more patients who plan to travel using vehicles than the parking allowable number, transportation means other than the vehicles to the patients who plan to travel using the vehicles.

Information processing apparatus, method, and non-transitory computer readable medium

A controller of an information processing apparatus is configured to, upon accepting appointments for health checkups from users, present the users with inquiry information inquiring of each user whether to be able to provide a parking place for a vehicle equipped with equipment to be used for the health checkups, and determine a parking place based on replies from the users to an inquiry indicated by the inquiry information.

Crystals of the compound represented by formula (1), a method for the production thereof, and a method for producing an antibody-drug conjugate using the crystals.

Method for producing antibody-drug conjugate

A separator for a fuel cell, to be disposed opposing to a membrane electrode assembly, is provided. The separator includes a separator central area portion opposing to a center area of the membrane electrode assembly that concerns generating power, an outer edge portion located in an outer edge of the separator central area portion, a rubber molded body made of rubber, the rubber molded body being formed in the outer edge portion by die-casting a die-casting rubber material using die, and an adhesive layer formed in the outer edge portion, for adhering the rubber molded body to the outer edge portion. The adhesive layer is formed over an adhesive layer area that includes and is larger than an area where the rubber molded body is die-casted in the outer edge portion. Thus, a disadvantage due to burrs which are generated when die-casting the rubber molded body can be reduced.

Separator for fuel cell, fuel cell, and manufacturing method of separator

There is provided a terminal plate comprising a plate stacked body including a first metal plate that is electrically conductive and has a current collecting terminal for power collection, and second metal plates that have higher corrosion resistance than the first metal plate and are placed across the first metal plate. A first gasket is mounted to the second metal plate and is provided to surround at least a gas flow hole used for supply of a gas on the second metal plate-side. A second gasket is mounted to the second metal plate and is provided to surround a cooling water flow area which communicates with a cooling water flow hole used for supply of cooling water on the second metal plate-side. The current collecting terminal is protruded from a plate outer circumferential end of the first metal plate in a direction from one flow hole of the gas flow hole and the cooling water flow hole toward the plate outer circumferential end of the first metal plate. This configuration enables the current collecting terminal to be cooled down from the second metal plate-side via the first metal plate.

Terminal plate for fuel cell, and fuel cell

In a fuel cell separator and the like, a technology for reducing the separation of a flow path rib which rectifies the flow of a fluid is desired. A separator used in a fuel cell is provided, the separator including: a separator main body that includes a fluid flow region through which a reactive gas or a coolant flows, a through-hole through which the reactive gas or the coolant flows, and a connection portion which connects the fluid flow region and the through-hole; and a flow rectifying portion that is arranged by being adhered on the connection portion and that rectifies flow of the reactive gas or the coolant between the fluid flow region and the through-hole, where the flow rectifying portion includes a plurality of protruded portions and a coupling portion which is thinner than the protruded portions and which couples the protruded portions.

Fuel cell separator, fuel cell current collector plate, fuel cell and fuel cell stack

A shock absorbing device for a rack and pinion type steering device includes a rack shaft, a rack housing, a stopper portion formed in an end part of the rack shaft, a stopper engaging portion provided on the rack housing to define a stroke end position for the rack shaft by engaging the stopper portion, a stepped portion formed on the rack shaft, a shoulder portion formed in an enlarged diameter portion of the rack housing, and a cylindrical elastic member fitted on the rack shaft such that the elastic member is pressed in the axial direction of the rack shaft by the stepped portion and the shoulder portion. The elastic member is formed with grooves on each of an outer circumferential surface and an inner circumferential surface thereof. Such shock absorbing device for a rack and pinion type steering device has a high shock absorbing capability.

The principal object of the present invention is to provide a liquid electrolyte for electrochemical device having a wide potential window. The invention solves the problem by providing a liquid electrolyte for electrochemical device, which comprises an electrolyte dissolved in an MFcomplex being liquid at ordinary temperatures wherein 'M' represents B, Si, P, As or Sb and 'X' represents the valence of &#x201c;M&#x201d;.

Liquid electrolyte for electrochemical device

Worm gear mechanism includes a driving worm, a torque delivering worm wheel meshing with the worm, and an auxiliary worm wheel superimposed on the torque delivering worm wheel. The auxiliary worm wheel has a pitch diameter greater than that of the torque delivering worm wheel. The auxiliary worm wheel is biased against the driving worm wheel via a biasing member in the form of a leaf spring.
