Rail system and method for rosin collection
Systems, devices, and methods are disclosed for a rosin press that allows improved extraction over existing presses. The press includes improved platens for rosin collection with built-in gutter rail collection systems and well-distributed force on the pressed product and multiple hydraulic rams. In addition, computerized systems are provided for controlling and monitoring the system in an automated fashion, as well as safety features to prevent injury and damage to the product, especially during automated pressing.
COMPUTERIZED ROSIN PRESS
Systems, devices, and methods are disclosed for a rosin press that allows improved extraction over existing presses. Computerized systems are provided for controlling and monitoring the system in an automated fashion, including via a wireless device or a server.
Device and method for preventing worker safety accident during machining
Proposed is a device and a method for preventing worker safety accidents during machining and, more particularly, a device and a method for preventing worker safety accidents during machining, which can prevent worker safety accidents in advance by stopping an operation of a chuck or cutter and triggering an alarm when a part of a worker's body is present in the danger zone beyond the safety zone judged by an artificial intelligence (AI)-based analysis of work images/videos captured during turning, milling, and other machining using chucks or cutters.
POWER TOOL WITH ANTI-KICKBACK CONTROL SYSTEM
A power tool includes a housing, a motor received in the housing, an output driven by the motor, and a control system. The control system includes a rotational motion sensor configured to generate a rotational motion signal that corresponds to a rotational motion of the housing about an axis, a current sensor configured to generate a motor current signal that corresponds to an amount of current drawn by the motor, and a control circuit that is configured to receive the rotational motion signal and the motor current signal and to control operation of the motor. The control circuit is configured: (a) to determine, based on the current signal, whether a detected kickback condition is likely to be false; (b) to determine, based upon the rotational motion signal, whether an uncontrolled kickback condition has occurred; and (c) to initiate one or more protective operations upon determining that an uncontrolled kickback condition has occurred and is not likely to be false.
EMERGENCY STOP DEVICE FOR A POWER TOOL, AN ELECTRICAL POWER PACK, A POWER TOOL, SYSTEM AND METHOD
The invention relates to an emergency stop device for a power tool comprising an electrical power contact for releasably connecting a power source to the power tool, and an emergency stop circuit connected to the electrical power contact and configured to disconnect the electrical contact from the electrical power source upon receipt of an emergency stop signal by the emergency stop circuit. The invention further relates to a power tool, a system comprising such a tool and a method of performing emergency stop of a power tool.
Work apparatus with safety equipment
An engine-driven brush cutter (100) equipped with a safety device (42) that includes an acceleration sensor unit (24) attached to a drive unit (4) in an aslant orientation such that a detection axis (DA) of the sensor unit (24) inclines by an angle (θ1) relative to the up-and-down direction (V) of the brush cutter (100). This inclined orientation of the detection axis (DA) contributes to lowering the sensitivity of the sensor unit (24) to engine vibration to which the safety device should not be sensitive so much.

FAILSAFE MODULE
A failsafe module comprising an input member (310), an output member (312), and a coupling mechanism for coupling the input member to the output member. The coupling mechanism comprises an intermediate member (316a) movable relative to the output member to energise an energy storage device and a latch mechanism (318, 320) to hold the energy storage device in an energised state. When the latch mechanism is engaged, the input and output members are coupled together and the energy storage device is held in an energised state and isolated from the coupling between the input and output members. When the latch mechanism is released, the energy storage device can release its energy to drive the output member to a predetermined position.
COLLISION PREVENTION CONTROL SYSTEM BASED ON ELECTRIC LIFTING TABLE AND COLLISION PREVENTION METHOD THEREOF
The present invention provides a collision prevention control system based on an electric lifting table and a collision prevention method thereof. The collision prevention control system includes a lifting table, an electronic lifting table control box disposed on the lifting table, and a single-chip microcomputer disposed in the electric lifting table control box. The electric lifting table control box is internally provided with an acceleration and gyroscope chip, the acceleration and gyroscope chip performing synchronous motion with the lifting table, the acceleration and gyroscope chip being in information interaction with the single-chip microcomputer, and motion control on the lifting table being performed through the single-chip microcomputer. The present invention has the advantageous effects as follows: the system has higher sensitivity and more reliable operation, and senses a slight angular change or an acceleration change when the lifting table encounters resistance.
