  • Publication number: 20220050364
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for controlling a gimbal, implemented by a gimbal controller. The gimbal includes a gimbal assembly connected to the gimbal controller, the gimbal assembly being configured to mount an imaging device and drive the imaging device to rotate to adjust an imaging direction of the imaging device. The method includes determining whether the gimbal has entered a preset mode; and controlling rotation of the gimbal assembly to stabilize the imaging direction of the imaging device at a first balance direction when the gimbal enters the preset mode, and controlling a movement of the gimbal assembly such that the imaging direction of the imaging device is within a first cone angle range with the first balance direction as an axis before the gimbal exiting the preset mode.

  • Patent number: 9133755
    Abstract: An engine component incorporates an installation feature for minimizing probability of misassembly of the component to or within an engine structure. For example, a ventless thermostatic valve may be made distinguishable from a vented, but otherwise identical, thermostatic valve, via the provision of tabs extending upwardly from the top of the ventless thermostatic valve. The tabs may be received into a corresponding tab-receiving groove of an associated engine part. As such, the tabs of the ventless component may offer a tactically sensitive distinguishing feature to signal that something may be amiss during an engine installation. The corresponding tab-receiving groove may be a widened aperture within a radiator elbow sleeve into which an upper portion of the ventless thermostatic valve may be mated and secured between an elbow sleeve flange and a cylinder head. Finally, a method of using the installation feature to reduce opportunities for misassembly error is disclosed.
