Abstract: Various methods and systems are provided for a water collection feature of an imaging probe assembly. In one example, a medical imaging probe assembly includes an electrical connector, an imaging probe, and an electrical cable including a first end connected to the electrical connector and a second end coupled to the imaging probe, the cable including a water collection feature arranged at an outer surface of the cable, proximate to the first end. The water collection feature may have converging edges extending outward from the cable, toward the first end, shaped to draw water droplets away from the cable.

Abstract: A snubber for a machine is provided. The snubber includes a frame that is mounted on an implement of the machine, a shaft that is operatively coupled to a movable component of the implement and a housing that is coupled to the shaft and rotatably received within the frame. The housing defines a cavity that is configured to store a fluid therein in a sealed manner. The snubber also includes at least one brake disc disposed within the housing and configured to rotate with the shaft and at least one brake pad disposed within the housing and configured to frictionally engage with the at least one brake disc to oppose rotational movement of the housing relative to the frame. The fluid is configured to at least partly remove heat generated due to the frictional engagement between the at least one brake disc and the at least one brake pad.

Abstract: A snubber for a machine includes a housing, a shaft and a pinion that is coupled to the shaft. The housing is mounted on an implement of the machine. The shaft is rotatably received within the housing and operatively coupled to a movable component of the implement. The snubber also includes a cylinder defining a cavity, a piston slidably received within the cylinder, a rack coupled to the piston, and a hydraulic device. The cylinder is at least partly disposed within the housing. The piston divides the cavity of the cylinder into a first chamber and a second chamber. The rack engages with the pinion to convert a rotation of the shaft into a linear movement of the piston. The hydraulic device is in fluid communication with the cavity and controls a flow of fluid between the first chamber and the second chamber to oppose rotation of the shaft.

Abstract: A linkage system for a snubber of a machine is provided. The snubber is being mounted on an implement of the machine. The linkage system includes a first linkage component operatively coupled to the snubber. The first linkage component defines a plurality of apertures therein. The linkage system also includes a second linkage component having a first end distal to the first linkage component and a second end proximate the first linkage component. The first end of the second linkage component is pivotally coupled to a door of the implement about a door pivot axis. The second end of the second linkage component is selectively and pivotally coupled to one of the plurality of apertures about a link pivot axis in order to change a perpendicular distance between the door pivot axis and the link pivot axis.

Abstract: A snubber for a machine includes a housing mounted on an implement, a shaft, a first member that has multiple helical splines that is coupled to the shaft. The shaft is rotatably received within the housing and operatively coupled to a movable component of the implement. The snubber also includes a cylinder defining a cavity, a piston received in the cylinder and dividing the cavity into a first chamber and a second chamber, a second member that has multiple helical splines and is coupled to the piston and, a hydraulic device. The helical splines of the first and second member engage with each other to convert a rotation of the shaft into a linear movement of the piston. The hydraulic device is in fluid communication with the cavity and controls a flow of fluid between the first chamber and the second chamber to oppose rotation of the shaft.

Abstract: An adjustable wear assembly for a machine mounting component having a channel is disclosed. The adjustable wear assembly may have a wear insert located within the channel, and an inclined adjustment plate located within the channel in contact with the wear insert. The adjustable wear assembly may also have at least one wedge block located within the channel in contact with the inclined adjustment plate, and a cover connectable to the mounting component to close off a side of the channel.
