A support system for supporting a robot arm system in an operating configuration and a stowed configuration relative to a workspace comprises a base assembly and a platform assembly. The base assembly is adapted to be secured to a structural surface, the base assembly defining a pivot opening. The platform assembly adapted to support the robot arm system, the platform assembly comprising a pivot member. The pivot opening is sized and dimensioned to receive the pivot member such that the platform assembly is movable between the operating configuration and the stowed configuration relative to the workspace.

A mounting system capable of mounting objects to support structures is disclosed. The mounting system includes a wall mount including a display bracket configured to hold the object, a fixed support bracket couplable to a vertical support structure, and a linkage assembly. The linkage assembly has a low-profile stowed configuration in which the object is held in a raised position close to the support structure. The linkage assembly moves to another configuration to move the object. The object can be held in a lowered position. A biasing mechanism can facilitate convenient movement of the object.

The invention is a mounting bracket particularly suited for mounting monitoring equipment in underground mines. The mounting bracket comprises a wall mounting plate and a levelling bracket removably attachable to the wall mounting plate. A first hinge member on one of the wall mounting plate or the levelling bracket and a second hinge member on the other of the wall mounting plate or the levelling bracket together form a hinge that engages between the wall mounting plate and the levelling bracket allowing the levelling bracket to be swung down to reduce it's profile or to be removed entirely. A locking screw locks the hinge to prevent hinged movement between the levelling bracket and the wall mounting plate when in use.

An arm mechanism includes a first arm, which is hollow, a second arm, and a connection portion for mutually rotatably connecting the first arm and the second arm. A connection portion 15 includes a rotary shaft extending in a direction perpendicular to an axial direction of a first arm 11 and a second arm 12, a friction portion for generating a frictional force against rotation of the rotary shaft, and a biasing member which is housed in the first arm, has an end portion facing away from the rotary shaft and connected to the first arm, has an end portion facing the rotary shaft and connected to the second arm via a connection member, and generates a contraction force which is increased with an increase in angle between an axis of the second arm and an axis of the first arm by rotation of the rotary shaft.

A machine for launching targets, comprising a base on which an assembly comprising a launch mechanism and a drum for storing targets is arranged. The assembly is configured to be mobile with respect to the base, wherein it comprises a tilting mechanism comprising a main tilting system providing a main mobility of the assembly with respect to the base consisting of a curved slide rigidly connected to one out of the base and the assembly, and an element guided by the slide in a single degree of freedom in translation along the slide and rigidly connected to the other out of the base and the assembly. The slide and the guided element are mounted movably in translation along the slide.

A camera slider has a base and a tubular hollow arm pivotally attached to the base. A counterweight carriage is supported on the arm on carriage rollers. An electric drive motor moves the counterweight carriage linearly on top of the arm. A slider counterweight is movable from a first position, wherein the counterweight carriage is at or adjacent to a first end of the arm and the slider counterweight is at or adjacent to a second end of the arm, and a second position wherein the counterweight carriage is at the second end of the arm, opposite from the first end, and the slider counterweight is at or adjacent to the first end of the arm.

A stand assembly for an electronic device includes a neck portion with a first end that holds and extends from the electronic device, a spine portion that is coupled via a joint structure to a second end of the neck portion, the joint structure being configured to provide a first rotational degree of freedom of the neck portion with respect to the spine portion, and one or more interconnect wires. The one or more interconnect wires include a first wire portion, a second wire portion and a third wire portion, the first wire portion being routed through an interior of the neck portion, the second wire portion being routed along a surface of the spine portion, and the third wire portion being routed though the joint structure from the surface of the spine portion to the interior of the neck portion.

This application is directed to a passively-cooled electronic device including a housing, a plurality of electronic assemblies and a plurality of thermally conductive parts. The electronic assemblies are enclosed in the housing, and include a first electronic assembly and a second electronic assembly. The first and second electronic assemblies are disposed proximately to each other within the housing, and the second electronic assembly is substantially sensitive to heat, including heat generated by operation of the first electronic assembly. The thermally conductive parts are coupled between the first electronic assembly and the housing, and configured to create a first plurality of heat conduction paths to conduct the heat generated by the first electronic assembly away from the second electronic assembly without using a fan. At least a subset of the thermally conductive parts mechanically supports one or both of the first and second electronic assemblies.

Implementations of a camera rig configured for use in the production of virtual reality (VR) content are provided. In some implementations, the camera rig may be configured so that multiple cameras can be mounted thereon, each mounted camera faces away from the camera rig and provides a different field of view. In some implementations, the camera rig may be configured so that cameras mounted thereon are able to capture a scene (e.g., a surgical site) from the perspective of a subject (e.g., a surgeon), without obstructing the subject's view of the scene. In some implementations, the camera rig may comprise a first planar member and a second planar member connected together by a first angled bracket and a second angled bracket, each angled bracket includes a connector that is configured for use in orienting and/or positioning the camera rig over the scene (e.g., a surgical site) to-be recorded.

A system for mounting a flat panel television or display to a surface such as a wall. A base plate is configured to operatively connect to a surface, while an adapter plate is configured to operatively connect to a display device. A plurality of connecting arms are used to operatively connect the base plate to the adapter plate. Each of the plurality of connecting arms includes a base plate engagement portion slidably engageable with slots in the base plate and an adapter plate engagement portion operatively connected to the adapter plate. Movement of the base plate engagement portions within the base plate's slots results in a translational movement of the adapter plate relative to the base plate.
