  • Patent number: 12249796
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes an insulating body, a plurality of conductive terminals, a plurality of grounding terminals and two shielding elements. The plurality of the conductive terminals are mounted in the insulating body. The plurality of the grounding terminals are mounted in the insulating body. The plurality of the grounding terminals are located adjacent to two outer sides of the plurality of the conductive terminals. The two shielding elements are disposed at a front end of an upper surface and a front end of a lower surface of the insulating body. Each shielding element has a base frame. Two sides of a rear edge of the base frame are connected with two contact portions. The contact portions of the two shielding elements contact with the plurality of the grounding terminals.

  • Patent number: 4940925
    Abstract: A visual navigation system provides absolute position information to multiple automatically guided vehicles (AGVs) such as mobile robots. The beacon-equipped AGVs emit light visible to overhead television cameras. The beacons are arranged and controlled so that the vision systems can acquire, measure, and report the locations of multiple AGVs. The system controller incorporates a programmable "factory map", or knowledge base, of allowable paths of travel for the AGVs, which navigate by dead reckoning with periodic position updates from the visual navigation system. The visual navigation system notifies the autonomous AGVs and the system controller when an AGV strays from its command path. The combination of computer controls in the elements of the system provides the means to stop and to recover straying AGVs. The navigation system visually monitors normal AGV travel, off-course corrections, "lost" AGV searches, and recovery. Thus, it provides closed-loop, servo-like operation.
