Abstract: A transport mechanism of a server rack including a carrier plate, a server rack disposed and fixed onto a top surface of the carrier plate, and multiple supporting assemblies respectively stacked onto a bottom surface of the carrier plate is provided. Each of the supporting assemblies has at least one cushion member. The cushion member has at least one hollow portion, and an opening of the hollow portion is exposed to an environment. The stiffness of the cushion member is smaller than the stiffness of the carrier plate. A pallet structure is also provided.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a bi-stable coupling for controlling the depth of a tool insertion, such as drilling, and similar processes. The bi-stable coupling can be used to penetrate (e.g., drill or push) through a material layer of unknown thickness without plunging the tool into the adjacent layer. In accordance with the invention, in a first state, force is applied to the tool to initiate penetration and a reactive force maintains the device in the first state during penetration and when tool penetrates the material, the reactive force is diminished enabling the device to transition to a second state in which the tool becomes retracted. In medical applications, the invention allows for drilling through bone of unknown thickness without plunging into the adjacent soft tissue.

Abstract: A flexible water pipe, including: an inner pipe, which can extend or contract when water-filling or dewatering in the flexible water pipe; an outer pipe, which can unfold or wrinkle when water-filling or dewatering in the flexible water pipe; several rings arranged outside the inner pipe; a joint in inflow side, which is used to fasten the inner and outer pipes in inflow side; and a joint in outflow side, which is used to fasten the inner and outer pipes in outflow side; wherein, the outer pipe is arranged outside the inner pipe and the ring.
