  • Publication number: 20240133907
    Abstract: A GUI is used to schedule a set of tasks for one or more robots to test samples using one or more instruments. A set of drivers are used to map instructions for the robots and instruments form a standardized format to a set of instrument/robot-specific formats. Using the standardized formats enables support for new types of robot and/or instrument to be easily added to the system. The robots and instruments generate test results from samples according to the instructions. Information about the testing may be stored in conjunction with user identifiers and other metadata to provide a verifiable audit trail across the instruments and robots.

  • Patent number: 11820381
    Abstract: An electrically powered, self-propelled cart for safely delivering heavy loads, such as concrete, within job sites with unlevel, irregular, or sloped terrain. A cargo bucket is tiltable over front drive wheels for transporting and dumping cargo. Electric drive motors associated with a transaxle propel wheels at a selectable speed in response to an electric control module. A steering column rotates in response to manually operated handle bars and activates a sensor to generate signals delivered to the control module for throttle adjustments. The sensor may be a linear potentiometer, a rotary differential transformer or a rotary encoder or shaft encoder measuring angular displacement. Extreme steering displacements will electrically reduce cart speed notwithstanding the previous speed setting chosen by the operator through the steering column.

  • Patent number: 11767643
    Abstract: A concrete finishing and forming machine adapted for rail trackbed deck construction accommodates various plinths and channels needed for light rail construction. The adjustably configurable machine comprises a rigid frame disposed above a deck by vertically upright, adjustable jack stands supported at their bottoms by wheeled, powered bogies adapted to traverse upon suitable rails on opposite sides of the deck. The jack-stands may be connected to supporting swing arms that extend from pivot sleeves enabling the jack stands to angularly swing out from the frame. A slidable carriage that is longitudinally displaceable within the frame supports at least one downwardly extending, vertically adjustable paving head having a tool that, when immersed within wet concrete and then horizontally displaced, strikes off elongated, smoothed channels resembling pathways upon the concrete.

  • Publication number: 20230214116
    Abstract: A new type of instruction and a control register for the new type of instruction are provided to handle data that may be misaligned in memory. A first part of data (which may be misaligned in memory) is loaded into a first set of registers by loading a first atom containing the first part of data into registers. The pack instruction is executed by an execution unit to place part of data (whose length and starting position are indicated by second and third values in a control register) from one set of registers into an identified location (identified by a first value in the control register) in another set of registers.

  • Publication number: 20230158238
    Abstract: An auto injector apparatus includes a syringe and an auto injector. The syringe includes a barrel holding a therapeutic fluid including an anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide (anti-CGRP) antibody. The syringe also includes a stopper disposed within the barrel and the stopper moves axially within the barrel between a first position and a second position to expel at least some of the therapeutic fluid from the syringe. The auto injector includes a rod that abuts the stopper and an injection spring that drives the rod to apply a dispensing force through the rod to the stopper. The dispensing force includes a first dispensing force of between 20 N and 40 N and a second dispensing force of between 12 N and 20 N. The injection spring initially applies the first dispensing force and then applies the second dispensing force to move the stopper to the second position.

  • Publication number: 20230084298
    Abstract: For certain applications, parts of the application data held in memory of a processing device (e.g. that are produced as a result of operations performed by the execution unit) are arranged in regular repeating patterns in the memory, and therefore, the execution unit may set up a suitable striding pattern for use by a send engine. The send engine accesses the memory at locations in accordance with the configured striding pattern so as to access a plurality of items of data that are arranged together in a regular pattern. In a similar manner as done for sends, the execution may set up a striding pattern for use by a receive engine. The receive engine, upon receiving a plurality of items of data, causes those items of data to be stored at locations in the memory, as determined in accordance with the configured striding pattern.
