Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to using an application programming interface (API) gateway orchestration layer. A method may include identifying, by the API gateway orchestration layer, a first API request, received by an API gateway API, to access a first microservice of a first API gateway that uses a first API gateway model; identifying a second API request, received by the API gateway API, to access a second microservice of a second API gateway that uses a second API gateway model; determining, based on the first API request, a first route to the first API gateway; determining, based on the second API request, a second route to the second API gateway; routing the first API request to the first microservice based on the first route; and routing the second API request to the second microservice based on the second route.

Abstract: A surface cleaner operable in a reclined use position and an upright position with an accessory. The accessory is positioned to be coupled to a lower portion of a recovery tank.

Abstract: A jaw closure transmission system is presented that includes an input sub-system, output sub-system and a transmission sub-system. These transmission sub-systems may utilize the transmission member as an energy storing device over a certain portion of an input stroke, to achieve a specific desired performance of the surgical tool. These apparatuses and methods may be particularly useful with hand-held, minimally invasive surgical tools having jaws.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a directional radio frequency identification (RFID) system, which provides directional RFID tag scanning using RFID enclosures and moveable radio signal blocking components. The RFID systems herein also prevent unwanted RFID tag activation and focuses RFID readers on specific scan areas. The directional RFID systems may be implemented in any type of system that utilizes RFID tag reading, such as a point of sale systems and other related systems, which utilize RFID scanning.

Abstract: A method and apparatus wherein a flow of elongated product, such as wooden boards, oriented transverse to the direction of travel; having abutted stacks or piles with numerous layers in a variously misaligned fashion, is received onto the first and uppermost of a series of generally horizontal conveyors arranged in a single vertical array one above the other with each subsequent level operating in a direction opposite of the level above it.
