Abstract: A hybrid electric vehicle charging station (EVCS) is provided. The EVCS includes a charging chassis that is configured to support a charging circuitry for providing a charge current to an electric vehicle and a multi-conductor cable that is attached to the charging chassis and that receives the charging current from the charging circuitry and that transmits the charging current to the electric vehicle. The EVCS further includes a user interface that is attached to the charging chassis and that is configured to provide digital content to a vehicle operator during a charging event of the electric vehicle. The charging chassis includes multiple user interface attachment structures that are each configured to support the user interface.

Abstract: A seating structure includes a base, a seat supported by the base, and a backrest having a frame and a suspension material supported by the frame. The frame includes an upper end and a lower end opposite the upper end. The seating structure also includes an upper thoracic support assembly supported by the frame adjacent the upper end. The upper thoracic support assembly including a thoracic support pad positioned between the frame and the suspension material. The thoracic support pad configured to engage the suspension material to support an upper thoracic region of a user.

Abstract: A table includes a plurality of legs, a work surface supported by the plurality of legs, a lower rail spaced apart from the work surface and extending between the plurality of legs, and a cable clip. The lower rail includes a channel disposed in an underside of the lower rail. The cable clip is receivable by the channel of the lower rail. The cable clip includes a deformable channel configured to receive wires.

Abstract: A cooking hob includes a cooktop defining a major surface extending between a plurality of sides and a plurality of edge surfaces extending away from the major surface at respective sides thereof and a plurality of burner units disposed at the major surface within respective sections of the major surface. The cooktop further includes a lighting assembly affixed with the cooktop opposite the major surface and extending adjacent at least two of the sections of the major surface and including a plurality of lighting elements respectively exposed at respective portions of the edge surfaces corresponding with the sections of the major surface.

Abstract: A mixing appliance assembly includes a housing, which includes a motor and shaft operably coupled with the motor and extending outwardly from the housing. A top handle is operably coupled with a top end of the housing and includes a pulse button and a continuous run switch. A side port is disposed in the housing and configured to receive a port connecting member and includes an interlocking feature. An interlock switch is disposed inside the side port. A switch engagement member is configured to engage the interlock switch such that the continuous run switch can be depressed. A bowl clamp is engageable with the side port and configured to removably secure the housing to a bowl and includes the switch engagement member. A side handle is engageable with the side port and is configured to be removably coupled with the housing and aid a user in handling the mixing appliance.

Abstract: A method of implanting a blood pump in a heart of a mammalian subject includes maintaining a temporary plug in an inlet opening of a pump having a pump body and an outlet cannula projecting from the pump body, advancing the pump into a ventricle of the heart through a hole in a wall of the heart so that the inlet of the pump is disposed within the ventricle and the outlet cannula extends through a valve of the heart into an artery, and then withdrawing the temporary plug from the inlet of the pump.
