Abstract: An externally-powered strapping tool includes a strapping tool assembly configured to perform one or more strapping operations; and an external power source operatively coupled thereto, the external power source being attached to the strapping tool assembly in a substantially immovable manner. According to another aspect, a strapping tool assembly includes one or more strapping tool subassemblies configured to perform one or more strapping operations; a power transfer subassembly operatively coupled to the one or more strapping tool subassemblies, the power transfer subassembly configured to transfer motive power from the external power source to the one or more strapping tool subassemblies; and a coupling member configured to couple the strapping tool assembly to the external power source.

Abstract: A tailgate assembly includes a frame subassembly having a cargo bed access opening disposed between a driver side section and a passenger side section, and a door subassembly that is pivotably coupled to the frame subassembly and is pivotable relative to the frame subassembly back-and-forth between a door open position and a door closed position. The door subassembly closes the cargo bed access opening when the door subassembly is in the door closed position. The assembly further includes a tube of the frame subassembly. The tube extends along an inboard side of the driver side section, along an inboard side of the passenger side section, and along a bottom of the cargo bed access opening.

Abstract: An orthopedic instrument, comprising a pair of pivotally-connected arms, extending beyond a pivot axis of a first pivot; a pair of feet mounted to ends of the pair of pivotally-connected arms; and a quadrilateral linkage configured to maintain parallelism between the pair of feet over a range of angles and to selectively alter a distance between the pair of feet.

Abstract: A light-emitting system (1000) removably attachable to headgear is provided, which comprises: a form factor (1010) configured to surround a portion of the headgear when the light-emitting system (1000) is removably attached to the headgear for use; a plurality of halo lighting elements (1100) configured to selectively generate at least a partial halo of light that radiates outwardly away from the light-emitting system; and at least one task lighting element (1120) aligned in a direction along a task light axis (1130) that is fixed and oriented downwardly at an oblique angle (?) relative to a transverse plane (TP) of the light-emitting system (1000), the at least one task lighting element (1120) being configured to selectively generate flood task lighting in an area in front of a user.

Abstract: Vehicle systems for accessing and utilizing vehicle cargo spaces on vehicles equipped with a tailgate assembly having a door subassembly may include deployable step systems, deployable lift panel systems, deployable cargo extender systems, etc. The vehicle systems may be either separate from or integrated with the door subassembly of the tailgate assembly. An exemplary vehicle system may include a deployable step that is movable between a stowed position and a deployed position in order to present a step surface to a user for accessing the vehicle cargo space.

Abstract: A machine learning system that includes three machine learning models implemented in a hardware processor, a first-level feature creation module, and a combination module provides an output based on one or more channel inputs. Each of the three machine learning models receives the channel inputs and additional feature inputs based on the channel inputs to produce the output. The first-level feature creation module is implemented in hardware and receives the channel inputs, performs a feature creation operation, creates the additional feature inputs, and provides the additional feature inputs to at least one of the machine learning models. The first-level feature creation operation performs a calculation on one or more aspects of the channel inputs, and the combination module receives the one or more machine learning model outputs and produce a machine learning channel output.

Abstract: An unmanned aerial vehicle is provided, including an airframe including a fuselage and at least one stowable wing. The unmanned aerial vehicle can further include a radar panel positioned on the fuselage such that the radar panel is angled downward and extends longitudinally along a ventral region of the fuselage. The unmanned aerial vehicle can further include a drop-away rocket engine that is configured to detachably mount to the airframe adjacent the radar panel.

Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for presenting augmented reality (AR) interfaces are provided. For example, a first object corresponding to a representation of content in an AR interface may be presented. Responsive to receiving a selection of the first object, a first graphical object corresponding to the content may be presented. An AR interface comprising a real time view of a camera of the device may be presented. A first graphical representation of the first graphical object may be presented overlaid on the real time view of the camera of the device. A second graphical representation of the first graphical object comprising the graphical modification and a second graphical object associated with information corresponding to the content may be presented overlaid on the real time view of the camera of the device. Responsive to receiving a selection of the second graphical object, the information may be presented.

Abstract: A strapping tool and a pump used thereby are disclosed herein. In one or more embodiments, the strapping tool includes a battery-powered motor; a hydraulic assembly operatively coupled to the battery-powered motor; and a sealing assembly, the sealing assembly comprising at least one crimping jaw member, the hydraulic assembly operatively coupling the at least one crimping jaw member to the battery-powered motor, and the at least one crimping jaw member of the sealing assembly configured to crimp or notch a strapping seal member so as to secure a piece of strapping around a package or bundle of items. In one or more embodiments, the pump includes a pump rotor; and a plurality of balls displaced by the pump rotor, the plurality of balls configured to displace a fluid in the pump. The pump contains no linkage members and no piston.

Abstract: In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to a flexible magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radio frequency (RF) array coil configured to operate in at least one of a transmit (Tx) mode or a receive (Rx) mode. The MRI RF array coil includes a first row of saddle coil elements. At least a first saddle coil element and a second saddle coil element are in the first row. The first and second saddle coil elements partially overlap with one another. Each of the first and second saddle coil elements include a left loop and a right loop that is coupled to the left loop by two connection segments.
