A movable body control device controls a movable body on which a worker performing a work task at a workplace is capable of boarding and which is capable of adjusting the height of a boarding part on which the worker boards. The movable body control device includes: an acquisition part that acquires, from a terminal device that is carried by the worker and that accepts information which is input by the worker in accordance with the work task, information based on input information which is input by the worker in accordance with the work task; and a control part that controls the height of the boarding part based on the information which is acquired by the acquisition part.

Movable body control device, movable body, movable body management system, movable body control method, and program

A movable body control system includes: a movable body on which a user is capable of riding; a support device that supports a body of the user in a lying posture; a body detection device that detects a state of the user supported by the support device; a periphery monitor device that monitors a periphery of the support device; and a determination part that determines whether or not the movable body is capable of approaching the support device based on a detection result of the periphery monitor device. In the movable body control system, in a case where the body detection device detects that the user is in a predetermined state and the determination part determines that the movable body is capable of approaching the support device, the movable body approaches the support device.

Movable body control system

A control deviceof a rideable mobile bodydetermines a target speed of the rideable mobile bodyaccording to at least the steering operation by a rider, and controls the travel of the rideable mobile bodyaccording to the target speed. In the processing for determining a target speed, the target speed is restricted according to the positional relationship between a virtual wall set in a travel environment of the rideable mobile bodyand the rideable mobile body. Thus, the comfort of the rider is secured while the travel of the rideable mobile body is restricted by the virtual wall.

Control device of a rideable mobile body including speed limiting unit for limiting target speed of the rideable mobile body according to positional relationship with virtual wall

A movable body control device controls a movable body which a worker who performs a work task at a workplace is capable of boarding and which is capable of traveling in a state where the worker is boarding. The movable body control device includes: an acquisition part that acquires, from a terminal device that is carried by the worker and that receives information which is input by the worker in accordance with the work task, information based on input information which is input by the worker in accordance with the work task; and a control part that controls a speed of the movable body based on the information which is acquired by the acquisition part.

A landing gear for a flight vehicle is used during landing. The landing gear for a flight vehicle includes a first cylinder structure configured to have an upper end which is coupled to be able to roll with respect to the flight vehicle; and a second cylinder structure configured to have a lower end which is able to come into contact with the ground, configured to be able to relatively move in an axial direction along a reference axis with respect to the first cylinder structure, and configured to be able to relatively rotate about the reference axis with respect to the first cylinder structure. The first cylinder structure and the second cylinder structure switch the landing gear between a stowed state and a released state by means of the relative movement and the relative rotation.

Landing gear for flight vehicle

A mobile body (A) includes: a base body () tiltably assembled to a movement operation section () that can move on a floor surface; an occupant riding sectioninstalled to the base body () by a connection mechanism (); an auxiliary ground contact sectionconnected to the occupant riding section () and in contact with the floor surface in a slidable or rollable manner when a tilt amount of the occupant riding section () with respect to the floor surface increases to a predetermined amount; and a control device () which controls the movement of the movement operation section () to stabilize the attitude of the mobile body (A). The connection mechanism () elastically rocks the occupant riding section () with respect to the base body () according to the movement of the center of gravity of a user P riding on the occupant riding section ().

Mobile body

The vehicle is provided with a seat which is movable between a high position and a low position, and configured to be grounded when the seat is at the low position, and a support leg extending substantially downward from the seat of the vehicle. The support leg is movable between a retracted position positioned close to a vehicle body frame and a deployed position positioned remote from the vehicle body frame, the support leg being configured to be at the retracted position when the seat is at the high position, and to move from the retracted position to the deployed position when the seat moves from the high position to the low position.

Vehicle provided with lift unit for seat

The vehicle is provided with a lift unit includes a fixed base () supported by a vehicle body frame, a movable base () connected to a seat base supporting a seat (), and supported by the fixed base so as to be movable between a lowered position and a reference position higher than the lowered position relative to the fixed base, an engagement device () configured to selectively retain the movable base to the fixed base at the reference position, an electric lift mechanism () configured to move the movable base vertically relative to the seat base, and a control unit () controlling the engagement device and the electric lift mechanism.

Provided is an inverted pendulum vehicle including a display unit for providing a guide on an operation for putting the vehicle body into the tilted position from the upright position or into the upright position from the tilted position according to a state of the vehicle. In particular, the display unit indicates a direction in which the vehicle body is required to be moved when placing the vehicle body from the tilted position to the upright position and from the upright position to the tilted position.
