The present invention discloses a lamp connector for connecting several lamps each provided with a power cable, a control cable, and female connector terminals, including a connector body, a power cable, a control cable, and male connector terminals, where the male connector terminals match the female connector terminals; receptacles for accommodating the male connector terminals are disposed in the connector body, and one male connector terminal is disposed on both sides of the connector body to connect the connector body to two lamps simultaneously; each of the male connector terminals includes a power cable terminal and a control cable terminal, two ends of the power cable are respectively connected to the two power cable terminals, and two ends of the control cable are respectively connected to the two control cable terminals; and both the power cable and the control cable are disposed in the connector body. According to the present invention, lamps having matched female connector terminals can be connected by simply performing plugging and unplugging operations, without needing a professional to connect cables for the lamps. As such, the operations are simple and quick.

The present invention discloses a modular lamp, including several modular units and lamp connectors, where the modular unit is a single lamp, and the lamp connector is configured to connect to the modular unit; and a male connector terminal on either side of each lamp connector is electrically plug-connected to a female connector terminal of one modular unit. In the present invention, female connector terminals connected to a power cable and a control cable are disposed on the modular unit, matched male connector terminals are disposed on the lamp connector, and the lamp connector is directly plug-connected to multiple modular units, so that the multiple modular units can be simultaneously physically and electrically connected to obtain the modular lamp. In this way, diversified lighting requirements can be met by adding different installation accessories to the modules. In addition, assembly operations can be completed by simply performing plugging and unplugging operations, without needing a professional to perform cable-connection and cable-routing between the modular units. Special scenario requirements such as good lighting effects and high ambient temperatures can be met by adjusting module power.

A surgical instrument comprising a shaft and an articulatable end effector is disclosed. The surgical instrument further comprises an articulation drive system configured to articulate the end effector and means for retaining the articulation drive system in engagement with the end effector.

A surgical instrument comprising a handle and a rotatable shaft is disclosed. The handle comprises a rotatable actuator configured to rotate the shaft.

A surgical instrument comprising a handle, a shaft rotatable relative to the handle, and an articulation joint rotatable relative to the shaft. The surgical instrument further comprises a motor-driven articulation system including articulation controls which are flipped by a control system of the surgical instrument when the shaft is rotated upside down relative to the handle.

A high voltage electrical swivel includes a first part and a second part, which are mobile relative to each other and form a closed internal chamber, each of the two parts including at least one electrical connector; and at least one electrical track electrically linked to a connector of one of the two parts and at least one brush assembly electrically linked to a connector of the other of the two parts, the at least one brush assembly cooperating with the at least one electrical track to establish an electrical contact, the at least one electrical track and the at least one brush assembly being housed in the closed internal chamber. The closed internal chamber is filled with a dielectric insulating gas having a dielectric strength greater than that of the air surrounding the electrical swivel.

The description relates to hinged devices, such as hinged computing devices. One example can include a first portion and a second portion. The example can also include a communication member spanning between the first and second portions and defining first and second parallel hinge pins. The first hinge pin can include a first cam follower that is received in a first multi-lobe cam of the first portion that forces the first portion away from the first hinge pin when the first and second portions are oriented at non-parallel orientations and allows the first portion to be biased toward the second hinge pin at parallel orientations.

A connector assembly that includes an outer shell and a first communication connector. The first communication connector and/or the outer shell is/are movable about one or more degrees of freedom. The first communication connector is configured to form a first electrical or optical connection with an external communication connector. Optionally, the connector assembly includes a second communication connector. The first communication connector may be connected to a cable or the optional second communication connector by a flexible substrate positioned inside the outer shell. The first communication connector may be implemented as a fiber optic connector optically connected to either a fiber optic cable or the second communication connector, which may also be implemented as a fiber optic connector.

A coupler for electrical connectors. The coupler includes a body having a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The coupler further includes a first connection interface positioned at the first end of the body, the first connection interface having a first set of conductive rings. The coupler further includes a second connection interface positioned at the second end of the body, the second connection interface having a second set of conductive rings electrically connected to the first set of conductive rings.
