ROBOT WITH LINEAR 7TH AXIS
The present application discloses a robotic control system, and a method and a computer system for controlling a robot. The robotic control system includes a memory and one or more processors coupled to the memory. The memory is configured to store configured to store a model of a robot having a plurality of axes of control including at least a linear axis and one or more rotational axes. The one or more processors are configured to use the model to control the robot to perform a task, including by sending to the robot a set of control signals to cause the robot to move with respect to two or more of said axes of control including at least the linear axis.
A Cogwheel
The present disclosure provides an improved cogwheel permitting enhanced meshing of cogwheels when operating perpendicularly. Exemplary embodiments introduce a multi-cogwheel design with specific dimensions and tooth profiles to permit perpendicular engagement of cogwheels whilst permitting translation of such cogwheels.
REMOVABLE ROOF DEVICE
The removable roof system includes a set of guy ropes (10), each of the guy ropes extending between a top anchor point (2) and a bottom anchor point (3) of a structure to be covered, a velum (1) mobile between a deployed configuration in which the velum covers the structure to be covered and a retracted configuration in which the structure to be covered is uncovered, and a set of carriages (20) to which the velum is attached, arranged so as to be moved along the guy ropes of the set of guy ropes between the top and bottom anchor points in order to cause the velum to pass between its deployed and retracted configurations and comprising for each of the guy ropes of the set of guy ropes at least one motorized carriage, at least one motorized carriage cooperating with the associated guy rope by meshing or by alternating wedging.
FOLDABLE CHILD ENCLOSURE
A foldable enclosure apparatus, for a child, including an upper assembly forming an upper portion of an enclosure, and a base assembly connected to the upper assembly and forming a lower portion of the enclosure that supports a base pad. The upper assembly and base assembly are coupled by a side structure of posts, and the upper assembly, base assembly, and side structure are configured so that the foldable enclosure apparatus folds and unfolds effecting closing and opening of the foldable enclosure apparatus between closed and open positions. A flexible frame bassinet is included in the upper portion and dependent from the upper assembly. A changing platform, separate and distinct from the bassinet, is connected to the upper assembly. The changing platform is pivotally mounted to the upper assembly with mounts separate and distinct from mounting of the bassinet, the mounts include a hinged coupling and snap on clamps.

HOUSING FOR ELECTRIC POWER STEERING DEVICE
A housing for an electric power steering device that has an electric motor, a speed reduction mechanism, a ball screw mechanism, and a rack bar. The housing has a first housing having a first end portion covering a part of the rack bar and a second end portion with a portion accommodating at least a part of the speed reduction mechanism. The first housing includes a rack bar insertion hole portion; an electric motor shaft insertion hole portion having a cylindrical shape on a radially outer side of the rack bar insertion hole portion, through which an electric motor shaft is inserted; and a fastening portion having an annular shape overlapping with an inner peripheral surface of the electric motor shaft insertion hole portion along the longitudinal direction of the rack bar when an axis extending in the rack bar longitudinal direction is viewed from a radially outer side.

SHAFT LOCKING METHOD USING A GEAR RACK AND TOOTHED LOCKING LEVER
A shaft locking mechanism includes a rack disposed on a translating shaft and a toothed locking lever disposed on a corresponding translation post. The toothed locking lever engages the rack in a locked orientation to prevent the shaft translating within the translation post. The toothed locking lever is disengaged during translation and the shaft may be translated and locked in place with very granular adjustability. A control rod release mechanism may be biased to maintain the toothed locking lever in the locked orientation. A cam feature on the toothed locking lever engages the body of the control rod which defines a recessed portion that coincides with the cam while in an unlocked orientation.
