LM317 is a variable-output voltage regulator. I would expect to find it in small home appliances with electronic controls, portable radios, car electronics, cell phone chargers, etc.

If you need to find the chip somewhere to do some repairs, you can probably ask a manufacturer to send you a (free) sample. Otherwise, you can buy small quantities online from places like digi-key.
