Abstract: The subject matter described in this specification is directed to systems and methods for dissipating heat from electronic components supporting autonomous vehicle systems. In particular, the specification describes how the electronic components can be positioned in a duct through which conditioned cabin air can be drawn to convectively dissipate heat from the electronic components.

Abstract: The subject matter described in this specification is directed to systems and methods for dissipating heat from sensors supporting autonomous vehicle systems. In particular, the specification describes how a housing, enclosing a sensor mounted to an exterior of a vehicle, can include heat dissipation components such as cooling fins across which conditioned cabin air and/or ambient air can be driven to convectively dissipate heat generated by the sensor.

Abstract: An assembly of a cup prosthesis (10) and instrument head is described. A cup prosthesis has a circumference and a central axis which defines axial and radial directions. An attachment member (8) is applied around the circumference of the cup. The attachment member comprises: a circumferential band (46); and at least two tabs (50) extending in an axial direction from the circumferential band and having a circumferential region of weakness (60). A surgical instrument head is attached to the attachment member and engaged with the cup prosthesis, and has a radial retaining element (38) which engages an outer radial face of the at least two tabs.

Abstract: A surgical instrument head for use with a cup prosthesis (10) is described. The cup prosthesis has an attachment member (8) applied around the circumference of the cup. The surgical instrument head is configured to engage the cup prosthesis and attach to the attachment member. The surgical instrument head includes a tab separation member (6) rotatable about a central axis of the instrument head relative to the instrument head and having a formation for engaging a rotation instrument (310). The tab separation member defines at least one radial cam surface (40) for engaging at least part of the attachment member in use. An assembly of the surgical instrument head and cup prosthesis and a tool (300) for operating the assembly are also described.
