  • Patent number: 11953959
    Abstract: A hybrid apparatus for charging electric vehicles and mining cryptocurrency is provided. The apparatus may comprise an electric power input associated with a rated maximum power capacity, an electric vehicle charger, a cryptocurrency miner and a power coordinator. The electric vehicle charger may have at least one vehicle power outlet and a maximum charger power draw from the electric power input. The cryptocurrency miner may have multiple cryptocurrency mining computers and a maximum miner power draw from the electric power input. Each mining computer may have an adjustable intensity level. The power coordinator may be configured to determine mining power availability within the rated maximum power capacity after prioritizing power demand by the electric vehicle charger, and to direct the cryptocurrency miner to continue mining cryptocurrency by adjusting the intensity levels of the mining computers such that the cryptocurrency miner consumes not more than the mining power availability.

  • Publication number: 20240091953
    Abstract: A method for controlling a robotic system includes determining a location and/or a pose of a power system component based on data received from one or more sensors, and determining a mapping of a location of a robotic system within a model of an external environment of the robotic system based on the data. The model of the external environment provides locations of objects external to the robotic system. A sequence of movements of components of the robotic system is determined to perform maintenance on the power system component based on the locations of the objects external to the robotic system and/or the location or pose of the power system component. One or more control signals are communicated to remotely control movement of the components of the robotic system based on the sequence or movements of the components to perform maintenance on the power system component.

  • Patent number: 9850007
    Abstract: A wing skin, which was secured to a wing structure by a plurality of fasteners extending through the wing skin, is removed from the wing and aligned with a template. Template holes are drilled through the template corresponding to each of the fastener holes of the wing skin. The template is then aligned with a new wing skin, and pilot holes are drilled through the new wing skin corresponding to each of the template holes. The new wing skin is then aligned with the wing structure such that the pilot holes permit access to corresponding fastener holes of the wing structure. A mill bit is then positioned through each pilot hole and aligned with the center of the corresponding consumable bushing in the fastener hole of the wing sub-structure, and the skin pilot holes are milled to form fastener holes in the new wing skin aligned with existing sub-structure.
