A breakaway hinge for a portable medical device, such as a cart-borne ultrasound system, enables the movement of an access door in other dimensions than the hinge access. The hinge includes a sliding magnet which attaches to a fixed magnet, and a hinge pin, all acting together to allow the door to open, to shift the door away from the hinge, and to detach the door as desired.

Improved systems and methods for operating moveable architectural elements (e.g., furniture) are described. The system can include improved features implemented throughout various elements, including hardware elements, controller elements, and/or software elements. As one example, the system can feature the ability to map a characteristic load profile across a particular length of actuation and, if during operation a measured load exceeds the profile, adjust (e.g., stop) the system's motion. The system can also advantageously map its current draw to increase energy efficiency. In addition, the system can include a positioning system that enables it to automatically determine its position upon start up and during operation. In some implementations, the system includes multiple moveable elements (e.g., furniture items). In some cases, power is distributed to the moveable element(s) using a moveable power distribution module. Many other improvements and features are contemplated and described.

Various embodiments, relate to a system of lockers including a plurality of tracks and a plurality of walls. At least two of the plurality of walls slidably coupled to at least two of the plurality of tracks. Four of the plurality of walls form four sides of a locker cavity. The system also includes a plurality of doors. Each of the plurality of doors are oriented perpendicular to the plurality of the walls. A first door of the plurality of doors is coupleable to a second door of the plurality of doors so as to form a third door, and at least one of the plurality of doors form one side of the locker cavity. The system also includes a back wall, which forms one side of the locker cavity. The system further includes a lock for securing positions of the plurality of walls and of the plurality of doors.

A maintenance window locking device is disclosed, including a maintenance window body, a maintenance window cover, a fastening plate, a first limiting mechanism including a groove, and a roller. The fastening plate includes a fastening plate body and a pin which are of an integrated structure. The pin is rotatably connected to the roller. The maintenance window body is hinged to a first end of the maintenance window cover. The fastening plate body is rotatably connected to a second end of the maintenance window cover. The first limiting mechanism is located on the maintenance window body. The fastening plate body drives the maintenance window cover to move toward the maintenance window body. The roller rolls along the first limiting mechanism until the roller is clamped into the groove, such that the maintenance window cover and the maintenance window body are tightly attached.

A hinge structure may comprise a first assembly including a central post with an outer surface and a first connector element on the central post for mounting on a first structure, a second assembly pivotally coupled to the first assembly and including a ring extending about the central post, a ring connector connected to the ring, and a second connector element on the ring for mounting on a second structure. A braking element may apply a selectable amount of resistance to pivot movement of the second connector element with respect to the first connector element and including a friction pad extending about a portion of the central post, a pressure band for pressing the friction pad against the central post, and a connecting structure connecting the ends of the band and being adjustable to move the ends closer toward each other and to relax the ends away from each other.

An unmanned aerial vehicle airport, an unmanned aerial vehicle system, a tour inspection system and an unmanned aerial vehicle cruise system. The unmanned aerial vehicle airport comprises a support base, a parking apron, a protective cover and a protective cover opening and closing driving device. The parking apron is installed on the top of the support base; the protective cover covers the top of the apron; the protective cover opening and closing driving device is installed between the support base and the protective cover, and the protective cover opening and closing driving device is configured to cause a bar linkage mechanism to drive the protective cover to switch between an open position and a closed position. The unmanned aerial vehicle airport is provided with the protective cover for the parking apron. If the protective cover is open, the unmanned aerial vehicle is parked on the parking apron, and takes off from the parking apron.

A key duplicating machine includes: a support structure, a front operational area which is accessible by the operator and which is removably covered and separated, at least partially, from the external environment by a covering and/or protection crankcase movable with respect to said structure of support. At least one key cutter and/or another cutting element, and at least one terminal (12) for locking a key, are housed in the front operational area, a rear containment area, covered and separated from the external environment by a casing mechanically fixed to the support structure, and a control and command unit having a mechanism for moving said crankcase for covering and/or protecting the front operational area, the crankcase being configured to be mounted on a fixed structure of the duplicating machine so as to be able to be moved with respect to the fixed structure.

The present utility model relates to a graphite furnace locking device, comprising: a stationary part which is provided with a locking unit, a movable part which is arranged along a first direction facing the stationary part, the movable part being provided with a latch bolt unit; wherein, the movable part may move towards the stationary part along the first direction until the latch bolt unit and the locking unit are connected and then the locking device is in a locked state; the latch bolt unit provides a first elastic force for the movable part towards the direction of the stationary part; the locking unit is used to disconnect from the latch bolt unit, and then the locking device is in an unlocked state; the latch bolt unit provides a second elastic force for the movable part in a direction away from the stationary part, and the movable part can move away from the stationary part in the first direction under the action of the second elastic force to its initial position. For the locking device of the present utility model, when it is under an unlocked state, the movable part is automatically sprung away to prevent the operator from being injured by scalding.

A stamping tool may include a base and a cover. The cover is removably affixed to the base through a hinging assembly. The base can include a first base hinge and a second base hinge substantially perpendicular to the first base hinge. The base hinges can include hinge sections. The hinge sections can include a first wall and a second wall that can be biased to define a cavity that is accessible through a channel between the first wall and the second wall. Hinge sections can be separated by one or more receptacles. The cover can include one or more hinge bars corresponding to the hinge sections on the base. The hinge bars can have an unequal aspect ratio allowing for easy insertion and removal of the cover. The cover can also include one or more protrusions separating the hinge bars. These protrusions correspond to the receptacles on the base.
