Lattice transitioning structures in additively manufactured products
An additively manufactured lattice structure includes (a) a first three-dimensional lattice including a repeating interconnected array of a first lattice unit cell, (b) a second three-dimensional lattice including a repeating interconnected array of a second lattice unit cell, wherein said second lattice unit cell is different from said first lattice unit cell, and (c) a first transition segment interconnecting said first three-dimensional lattice and said second three-dimensional lattice. The first transition segment includes (i) a first three-dimensional transitional lattice including a repeating array of said first lattice unit cell and (ii) interleaved with and interconnected to said first three-dimensional transitional lattice, a second three-dimensional transitional lattice including a repeating array of said second lattice unit cell.

Actuator release mechanism
An actuator release mechanism comprising a longitudinal member, e.g. a piston, which is moveable axially to permit or prevent axial movement of the lock bolt and hence deployment of the actuator. Movement of the piston is due to the force of the lock bolt, under a spring force, on the one hand, and to the position and force of a linkage assembly on the other hand. The linkage assembly comprises a first link fixed, at one end, e.g. by means of a piston lock pin, to the piston and fixed at a pivot point to a second link. The second link is fixed to a rotational drive means, here a rotary solenoid or stepper motor, so as to rotate about a centre of rotation.

Corner cabinet fitting for the gearwheel- controlled movable mounting of a shelf in a corner cabinet
A corner cabinet fitting (1) for movably mounting of a shelf (34) in a corner cabinet (37) has a bearing pedestal (7), a supporting arm (8) which is mounted on the bearing pedestal (7) so as to be pivotable in a first pivoting movement about a first vertical pivot axis (9), a shelf carrier (10) which is mounted on the supporting arm (8) so as to be pivotable in a second pivoting movement about a second vertical pivot axis (11), and a coupling mechanism which couples the second pivoting movement to the first pivoting movement. The coupling mechanism comprises a first rolling element (24) and a second rolling elements (22), which roll on one another directly or via a belt or a chain, the first rolling element (24) being coupled to the bearing pedestal (7) and the second rolling element (22) being coupled to the shelf carrier.

FLAP SUPPORT MECHANISM - C BAR
A trailing edge flap actuation mechanism has a flap drive link with a first end pivotally coupled to a fore flap structure of a flap and a second end pivotally coupled to an underwing support structure. An aft tension link has a leading end pivotally coupled proximate an aft end of the underwing support structure and a trailing end coupled to a mid-section structure of the flap. An actuator, when actuated, rotates the flap drive link about a first pivot axle to move the flap between a retracted position and a deployed lowered position. The actuator, including a ball-screw drive shaft having a universal joint, is positioned in a cove above the underwing support structure whereby the extent that the underwing support structure protrudes below the wing is reduced.

Bar member, assembled component and robot
Robot includes an assembled component having a fixed member and a moving member. The moving member includes a multi-hole bar member and a multi-hole circular plate. The multi-hole bar member has a width four times longer than its thickness. The multi-hole bar member includes a set of connecting holes running through the multi-hole bar member along a thickness direction of the multi-hole bar member. The multi-hole circular plate has a central hole and fixed holes distributed around the central hole and arranged circumferentially. The fixed member includes a multi-hole plate and a multi-hole bent plate. The thickness of the multi-hole plate is the same as the thickness of the multi-hole bar member. A bent portion is formed by bending at least one end of the multi-hole bent plate. The fixed holes are arranged in a matrix on the multi-hole plate and distributed on the multi-hole bent plate in a matrix.
