Apparatus and methods for providing a robotic arm cart for transporting, delivering, and securing robotic arms to a surgical table having a tabletop on which a patient can be disposed are described herein. In some embodiments described herein an arm cart can contain multiple robotic arms. A robotic arm can be selected and moved from a storage position within the arm cart to a deployment position in which at least a portion of that robotic arm protrudes from the arm cart. A robotic arm in a deployment position can be coupled to a surgical table and decoupled from the arm cart.

A mount is configured for attachment to a neck of a pressure vessel that has a body having a height and width. The mount includes a central plate, and first and second flanges. The central plate has a height and width, both of which are approximately equal to or less than the respective height and width of the pressure vessel body, and an aperture. The first and second flanges are located at opposed first and second sides of the central plate, respectively, are oriented substantially perpendicular to the central plate, and are configured to extend toward the body. The central plate has a cut-out portion that borders at least one of the first and second flanges.

Systems, devices, and methods of protecting sensitive equipment against vibrations, mechanical shocks, and earthquakes. A support device includes a lower fixed or non-moving frame, and an upper movable frame. The two frames are connected via four dampers, at or near their four corners; and also by four generally-vertical cables or wires that together with the supported device operate as an inverted pendulum or an upside-down pendulum in response to incoming vibrations or applied forces. The dampers, as well as the inverted pendulum created by the cables, dissipate and absorb vibration energy and mechanical shocks. Optionally, the entirety of the support device has not more than four dampers. Optionally, the entirety of the support device has or not more than eight dampers, wherein four of the eight dampers are not connected to the vertical cables, and four other of the eight dampers are connected to lower ends of the four vertical cables.

An embodiment is directed to a contact plate configured to establish electrical bonds between battery cells in a battery module, including at least one primary conductive layer, and a set of bonding connectors that are configured to provide direct electrical bonds between the contact plate and terminals of a group of battery cells, the set of bonding connectors being configured to connect the group of battery cells in parallel with each other, wherein at least one bonding connector in the set of bonding connectors is configured with a higher fuse rating than each other bonding connector in the set of bonding connectors so as to contain arcs among the set of bonding connectors to the at least one bonding connector.

Disclosed is an arrangement for coupling a fairing panel to an engine casing. The arrangement includes a pair of rigid brackets having a specific stiffness, wherein the pair of rigid brackets couple a first side of the fairing panel to a first side of the engine casing. The arrangement further includes a pair of flexible brackets comprising a first flexible bracket having a first stiffness and a second flexible bracket having a second stiffness more than the first stiffness. Moreover, the first stiffness and the second stiffness are less than the specific stiffness of the pair of rigid brackets. Furthermore, the pair of flexible brackets couple a second side opposite to the first side of the fairing panel to a second side opposite to the first side of the engine casing.
