An ultrasonic diagnosis system includes a reaction force detection sensor that detects a reaction force acting on an ultrasonic probe when the ultrasonic probe is pressed against a body surface of a subject. Then, the ultrasonic diagnosis system estimates the push-in amount of the ultrasonic probe with respect to the subject by using the reaction force detection sensor during the ultrasonic diagnosis to output a display or a warning of the estimated push-in amount of the ultrasonic probe to the output device.

A distribution system is linked to a delivery vehicle delivering a product stored in a warehouse to a delivery destination and includes an automatic conveyance device and an automatic conveyance device server. An automatic conveyance device server transmits a release instruction to an automatic conveyance device when receiving a request for delivery, transmits a loading instruction for loading of a product to a delivery vehicle to the automatic conveyance device when receiving loading permission, and transmits a release completion notification to a transmitter of a delivery request when receiving information indicating the releasing is completed. An automatic conveyance device picks up a designated product in a warehouse when receiving a release instruction, loads the picked-up product to a delivery vehicle standing by at a standby position when receiving a loading instruction, and transmits information indicating that release is completed to the automatic conveyance device server when loading work is completed.

Distribution system

A stocker system for transporting a good via a transport vehicle to a stocker with multiple storage compartments, the stocker system including: a stocker information memory section configured to memorize stocker information including arrangement position information of the storage compartments in the stocker, and information of presence or absence of the good in the storage compartments; a stocker information updating section configured to update the stocker information in accordance with the goods being taken in and out of the storage compartments; and a stopping position setting section configured to acquire the arrangement position information of an empty storage compartment from the stocker information and to set a stopping position of the transport vehicle for the good to be put into the empty storage compartment based on the acquired arrangement position information of the empty storage compartment.

Stocker system

There are provided a slave, a work machine, and a method for storing log information, which are capable of appropriately store the log information when a communication abnormality occurs such that communication cannot be kept between a master and the slave in an industrial network. The control section performs first storage processing storing the log information into a volatile storage section when a communication abnormality occurs such that communication with the master cannot be kept, communication abnormality determination processing for determining whether the communication abnormality has occurred, and second storage processing storing the log information into a non-volatile storage section by acquiring the log information from the volatile storage section, in response to a determination made in that the communication abnormality has occurred as a result of the communication abnormality determination processing.
