Abstract: A touch-screen control panel interface has a dielectric flat or curved front panel and a printed circuit board with a front side and a reverse side which is the component side. Alphanumeric display module(s) or an LCD display and optional protective cap mounted on the reverse side of the circuit board are visible through window cutout(s) on the board. An array of LED indicators can be mounted on the back side of the circuit board and visible through cutouts in the board. Metallized capacitive pads on or adjacent the back side of the front panel at touch locations permit selection of various modes, functions, and settings. These pads may be formed on the flat front side of the circuit board, on the back of the front plate, or on an intermediate membrane. A microprocessor is connected with the various components and with capacitive pad. Icons may be printed onto the flat panel, in registry with the metallized capacitive electrode pads.

Abstract: A harmonic drive featuring helix-facilitated lubrication includes a circular spline, a flexspline, a wave generator, and an agitating member. The flexspline meshes with the circular spline. The wave generator has a bearing installed within the flexspline, an elliptic wheel positioned in the bearing, and a shaft coupling connecting the elliptic wheel. The agitating member is located in a lubricant-holding space between the wave generator and the flexspline, and has a rotatory part and blade parts formed about a rotatory part. The rotatory part of the agitating member is connected to the shaft coupling of the wave generator, so that when the agitating member is driven by the shaft coupling, the helical blade parts agitate lubricant to perform convection, thereby better lubricating the bearing of the wave generator.

Abstract: A transfer device has a carriage supported on a base, movable between a home position and an extended position. A table assembly includes a lower table fixed to the carriage and an upper table coupled to the lower table, movable between a downward position in forcible contact with the lower table and an upward position having no contact with the lower table. The table assembly moves toward the extended position with the tables in forcible contact to place the table assembly underneath the object to be transferred while keeping the base stationary. The plates are separated to lift the object on the upper table while the lower table remains resting upon the support surface. The table assembly returns to the home position while supporting the object on the upper table and keeping the upper and lower tables separated. The device may operate in a bidirectional manner.
