    Abstract: A wall surface suction-type travel device is configured to travel on a wall surface while being suctioned on the wall surface. An intermediate chamber communicates with decompression chambers facing the wall surface. A suction device sucks in air from the intermediate chamber to decompress the intermediate chamber. Principal communicating parts allow the decompression chambers to communicate with the intermediate chamber. Secondary communicating parts allow the respective decompression chambers to communicate with the intermediate chamber. Valves face openings of the respective principal communicating parts. An area of an opening of each of the secondary communicating parts is smaller than an area of the opening of a corresponding one of the principal communicating parts. On condition that pressure in one of decompression chambers gets higher than pressure required for wall surface suction, a consequent difference in pressure between the one of decompression chambers and the intermediate chamber causes a corresponding one of the valves to close the opening.

    Abstract: A connector holding mechanism includes a biasing member provided in a through hole formed in a bottom plate of a storage body, a cover having a connector insertion hole and an inclined surface which is fixed to the through hole, a connector, in which a terminal is loosely inserted into the connector insertion hole, and a flange portion protruding from an outer periphery of the housing biased by the biasing member. When the connector is waiting to be fitted to a stored object, the connector is held in a posture where the terminal is inclined due to abutment between the inclined surface and the flange with respect to a virtual line perpendicular to the bottom surface, and when the connector is fitted to the stored object, the connector is held in a posture where the terminal is vertical along the virtual line.

    Abstract: A charging device includes: a connector that protrudes from a placement surface; a protective plate; a wall surface intersecting with the placement surface; a support member capable of moving to be in a first orientation in which the protective plate is supported and a second orientation in which the protective plate is not supported; and a lock mechanism that locks the support member in the first orientation. The lock mechanism includes a first protruding part that, when the support member is locked, releases the locking of the support member by being pushed. The support member (i) includes a second protruding part, and (ii) moves from the first orientation to the second orientation by the second protruding part being pushed toward the wall surface in a state where the locking is released. When the support member has moved, the protective plate is capable of moving to the placement stand.
