Abstract: A method is provided that can include activating at least two wireless communication channels in parallel, between a first wireless transceiver and a second wireless transceiver. Each of the at least two wireless communication channels can operate at a different radio carrier frequency, and the first wireless transceiver may be part of a first vehicle. The method can also include transmitting, by the first wireless transceiver, common information in parallel on the at least two wireless communication channels to the second wireless transceiver and deactivating the at least two wireless communication channels.

Abstract: An exemplary die casting press includes a moveable platen that can be actuated to move toward and away from a fixed platen along tie bars. A fixed die is mounted on the fixed platen and a moveable die is mounted on the moveable platen. A die locking system has a locking post that is attached to and extends from the fixed die and a locking cam that is attached to the moveable die. An actuator moves the locking cam between a locked position and an unlocked position to engage and disengage from the locking post, respectively.

Abstract: The water containment system(s) disclosed herein may include one or more trays operably connected by piping. In some implementations, the trays may be configured to support plants thereon and to catch water used to irrigate these plants. In this way, the collected water may be reclaimed and reused. In some implementations, the water containment system may help prevent water from leaking onto adjacent surfaces. In this way, a potential water hazard may be eliminated. In some implementations, each tray may include a housing with at least one grate covering an interior opening. In some implementations, the housing of each tray may have one or more sloped surface located within its interior. In some implementations, a drain may be located at or near the lowest point within the interior of the housing. In this way, water flowing through the interior of a tray's housing may drain out.
