Publication number: 20230139333Abstract: An electronic device provides, to a user, a user-curated playlist, the user-curated playlist including an ordered set of media items that were added by the user. While providing a first media item in the ordered set of media items, the electronic device receives a first user input selecting an option to include recommended media items in the user-curated playlist. In response to the first user input, the electronic device updates the user-curated playlist to include a first recommended media item, the first recommended media item selected without user intervention based at least in part on attributes of the user-curated playlist. The first recommended media item is positioned in the user-curated playlist in between media items that were added to the ordered set of media items by the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2022Publication date: May 4, 2023Inventors: Gustav SÖDERSTRÖM, Sandra Kristina HANSSON, Jason Allen RUSSELL, Kelly DRECOURT, Morgan HECHT, Simon AMOR, Ajay Mathew KALIA, Jeremy HOPPLE, Jonathan MARMOR, Bianca CAPRETTA, Ingrid Maria PETTERSSON, Matthew BUDELMAN, Björn Håkan LINDBERG, Gabriella Maria Eleonora LJUNGGREN, Ian Alexander VANNEST, Tim Olsson WIKLUND, Gastón MONTEMAYOR OLAIZOLA

Patent number: 10456898Abstract: Damping device for a percussion device of a hydraulic rock drilling machine (1) with a striking direction (R), including a damping piston (5) for action in an axial direction against a tool, wherein the damping piston (5) exhibits a first piston portion (6), which is received in a first damping chamber (7) and a second piston portion (8), which is received in a second damping chamber (9). In operation, in a normal striking position of said percussion device, the damping piston (5) is set against a fixed stop (19) against movements in the striking direction. A damping slot (10) is established between the first (7) and the second (9) damping chamber in all axial positions of the damping pistons, and the first damping chamber (7) is pressurized with a hydraulic pressure. The invention also concerns a percussion device and a rock drilling machine.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2015Date of Patent: October 29, 2019Assignee: Epiroc Rock Drills AktiebolagInventor: Maria Pettersson
