At least one of the horizontal members and/or the vertical members has a cross-section that reduces drag under wind load.

A device may include a display, a housing, a base, and a hinge operably coupling the display and the housing. The hinge may be moveable over a range of positions. One or more loudspeakers are disposed in the housing. A motor couples to the housing and is configured to rotate the housing and the display. The base is configured to remain stationary during actuation of the motor. In some instances, the device may include a camera and one or more microphones for determining a position of a user. The motor may actuate in a direction of the user to provide increase audio and/or visual experiences.

The invention is an articulated funnel holder and a method, the articulated funnel holder comprising a magnetic tray supporting a J-shaped support arm that attaches at one end to the magnetic tray and at another end to a pivoting device, the pivoting device further connects to one mast end of telescopic mast to move the telescopic mast between raised and lowered positions relative to the magnetic tray, a remaining mast end removably supports a funnel ring that removably receives and supports a funnel, wherein the articulated funnel holder moves between an open operative position and compact storage position; wherein articulated funnel holder in the compact storage position places the telescopic mast and the one or more funnel rings within a storage area as defined by edges of the magnetic tray.

An electric vehicle (EV) charging station includes a frame and a panel having an interior surface and an exterior surface. The panel is hinged to the frame so as to articulate the panel away from the frame. The panel includes a display facing outwardly from the exterior surface of the panel and mounted on the interior surface of the panel. The EV charging station further includes a computer accessible when the panel is articulated away from the frame, the computer including one or more processors and memory, the memory storing instructions for displaying content on the display.

A camera supporting device includes a supporting frame, an outer casing, a camera holding structure, and a linkage mechanism. The outer casing is rotatably connected to the supporting frame. The camera holding structure is rotatably connected to the supporting frame independently of the outer casing. The linkage mechanism incudes a driving part and a driven part kinematically connected to the driving part. The driving part is fixedly connected to the camera holding structure. The driven part is fixedly connected to the outer casing. An image-capturing device can be fixed on the camera holding structure. Through the camera holding structure driving the outer casing through the linkage mechanism, the outer casing can provide a wider angle range available for the image-capturing device to capturing exterior images.

A camera mount assembly for holding a camera or other perception sensor that may be fixed with respect to a ground plane and used for incremental angle measurement of the camera or other perception sensor in three axes, such that the precise spatial relationships of imaged objects with respect to the orientation/position of the camera or other perception sensor may be determined. A base structure of the camera mount assembly may be affixed to a fixed or moveable support structure and multiple leveling devices and/or laser devices are provided to establish a reliable reference relative to the ground plane. Thus, the exact orientation of the camera or other perception sensor in space may be determined frame to frame, such that the precise orientation of imaged objects with respect to the orientation/position of the camera or other perception sensor relative to the ground plane may be determined over time.

A biaxial pivoting mechanism configured for connecting an object to a holder includes a mount component, a rotatable connector, a main body and a mount base. The mount component is configured to be fixed to the object. The rotatable connector is rotatably disposed on the mount component about a first axis. The main body is fixed to the rotatable connector. The mount base is configured to be fixed to the holder, and the main body is rotatably disposed on the mount base about a second axis not parallel to the first axis. The main body has a first surface, a second surface, and an accommodating space. The first surface is located closer to the rotatable connector than the second surface. The accommodating space extends to the second surface from the first surface. At least part of the mount base is located in the accommodating space.

An exterior rearview mirror assembly includes a mounting arm and a mirror head having a mirror casing, a mirror reflective element and an actuator. The mounting arm is received through an aperture in the mirror casing and the actuator is attached at the mounting arm inside the mirror casing. The actuator is electrically operable to adjust the mirror head relative to the mounting arm. The actuator attaches at the mounting arm and to the mirror casing. The actuator includes an actuator housing that houses first and second motors that drive respective first and second gears. When the first motor is electrically operated, the first gear causes pivoting of the mirror head about a vertical pivot axis, and when the second motor is electrically operated, the second gear causes pivoting of the mirror head about a horizontal pivot axis.

A photographic equipment stand includes a support frame, a pan-tilt head and a first cold shoe. The support frame includes a fixed base and a support leg. One end of the support leg is rotatably fixed to the bottom of the fixed base, and the support leg can be placed vertically. The pan-tilt head is detachably arranged on the top of the fixed base, and the photographic equipment can be mounted on the top of the pan-tilt head. The pan-tilt head comprises a pan-tilt head base. The pan-tilt head base is detachably arranged on a top of the fixed base. The pan-tilt head connector comprises a first connection end and a second connection end. The first connection end passes through the pan-tilt head tray and is provided with an external thread. The second connection end is rotatably connected to the pan-tilt head base.

A fan clamp is provided for supporting a fan on a support surface by clamping to the support surface. The fan clamp includes a clamp assembly having an upper clamp member for engaging a top side of the support surface, a lower clamp member for engaging a bottom side of the support surface and a screw adjustment assembly extending through the lower and upper clamp members for clamping the upper clamp assembly and lower clamp assembly to the support surface. The clamp assembly further includes a shield extending from the lower clamp assembly through the upper clamp assembly that partially surrounds the screw adjustment assembly to block the screw adjustment assembly from being visible when the lower and upper clamp assemblies move away from each other to engage a support surface. The fan clamp may further include an arm extending from the clamp assembly for supporting the fan. The arm may be a swing arm that is rotativity connected to the fan clamp.
