Abstract: An electrical header for use in an electrical connector assembly includes a body for mounting to an object and having an opening formed therethrough for receiving an electrical terminal. The body further defines a plug on a first side thereof for engaging with a mating electrical connector of the assembly. The plug includes a pair of first opposing sidewalls extending from the body a first height and defining a locking feature for engaging with a corresponding locking feature of the mating connector, and a pair of second opposing sidewalls extending from the body at a second height, less than the first height. The first and second pairs of opposing sidewalls are adapted to mate with a first mating connector oriented in a first direction with respect to the header, and mate with a second mating connector oriented in a second direction with respect to the header and distinct from the first direction.

The table includes individual planks that laterally interlock with each other to form a tabletop and leg assemblies for supporting the tabletop. The leg assemblies each have a crossbeam and opposing clamps at each end of the crossbeam. The planks are arranged perpendicularly to the crossbeams, and planks on the ends of the tabletop are securely retained against the crossbeams. The table breaks down into individual planks and leg assemblies for transport and storage.

Abstract: A system for automatically initiating a travel mode of a media-playback device is disclosed. The system operates to evaluate vehicle presence factors and determine whether the vehicle presence factors indicate that the media-playback device is in a vehicle. Upon determining presence of the media-playback device in a vehicle, the travel mode is performed using the media-playback device.

Abstract: Defining critical spacing is necessary for steering of parametric audio. Comparing steering measurements both with and without a waveguide leads to a conclusion that the diffuse phyllotactic grating lobe contributes audio and is to blame for poor steering. In addition, the waveguide needs to function with correct phase offsets to achieve the steering required for performance. Arranging tubes so that the array configuration changes from rectilinear to another distribution is useful when the waveguide is short of critical spacing or constrained for space. Array designs may also capitalize on rectilinear transducer design while having the benefits of a transducer tiling that has irrational spacing to promote the spread of grating lobe energy.

Abstract: A system and method for drilling a hole in a vehicle structure and installing a fastener in the hole. A drill plate having openings and associated machine-readable elements is positioned on the structure. A drill gun is positioned in a particular opening and reads hole information from the associated element, and a computer determines whether the drill gun is properly set-up to drill the hole. A fastener insertion gun is positioned in the particular opening and reads fastener information from the element, and the computer determines whether the hole has been drilled and, if so, whether the fastener insertion gun is properly set-up to insert the fastener. A fastener delivery subsystem stores, tracks, and delivers fasteners to the fastener insertion gun. A system computer monitors the drilling of every hole, the insertion of every fastener, and the overall operation of the fastener delivery subsystem.

Abstract: A secure locking hub system for locking a wheel hub of a vehicle to an axle is provided. The system has a locking ring that may be moved between locked and unlocked configurations. When locked, the hub is in a rotationally fixed position relative to the axle on which the hub is mounted. With the hub locked to the axle, the wheel will not rotate and the vehicle thus cannot be moved. The system additionally has a security lock that prevents any unauthorized individual from unlocking the wheel hub, thereby preventing theft of the vehicle. The system has an actuator dial that covers the heads of bolts used to fasten the system together when the dial is rotated to move the locking ring into the locked configuration, which prevents unauthorized disassembly of the system.

Abstract: Systems, devices, apparatuses, components, methods, and techniques for a user interface for media content playback, such as during travel, are provided. An method of media playback by a media playback device, the method comprising: playing a media content item of a selected playlist of a selected group of playlists; generating a user interface displaying a graphic associated with the media content item that is playing; when an input associated with a first dimension is received into the user interface, playing another media content item of the selected playlist; when an input associated with a second dimension is received into the user interface, playing another media content item of another selected playlist of the selected group of playlists; and when an input associated with a third dimension is received into the user interface, playing another media content item of another selected playlist of another group of playlists.

Abstract: A power terminal includes a terminal body having a mating portion including plates with a mating space therebetween. A spring clip is coupled to the mating portion and includes inner spring plates extending along the plates in the mating space with a slot therebetween. The inner spring plates directly engage and electrically connect to the terminal body and to a tab terminal received in the slot. The spring clip includes at least one cantilevered contact spring configured to be spring biased against and electrically connected to the tab terminal. The spring clip includes at least one stabilization contact spring spring biased against and electrically connected to the corresponding plate and configured to be spring biased against and electrically connected to the tab terminal. The stabilization contact spring provides a greater contact normal force against the tab terminal than the cantilevered contact spring.
