Abstract: A method of controlling an industrial robot, including a robot controller, a programming interface, which is separate from the robot controller, and a robot manipulator with a plurality of actuators. The method includes: receiving a first release signal via a first safe input means; receiving actuator-selection data, which indicates one or more of the actuators, via an arbitrary input means at the programming interface; receiving a second release signal via a second safe input means at the programming interface after having received the actuator-selection data; and, in response to determining that the first and second release signals are still received, causing the actuators indicated by the actuator-selection data to enter a movement-without-drive-power mode.

Abstract: Connections among two different entities are identified by processing a collection of documents to identify one or more documents that contain co-occurring mentions of each of the two different entities. This relationship may be graphically displayed in a user interface with an icon or the like for each of the two entities, along with a graphical link interconnecting the entities. The graphical link can be an active element of the user interface that responds to user interactions by providing access to evidence within the collection of documents that substantiates the connection between the two entities. In one aspect, a search input form field in a user interface may be used to explicitly request documents that substantiate a relationship between two entities. In another aspect, a user may ground entity mentions by explicitly selecting documents that mention an entity of interest.

Abstract: A massage head for a percussive therapy device includes a base. The base is configured to connect a massage attachment to a reciprocating shaft of a percussive therapy device. The massage head also includes an end portion that includes a heater. The massage head also includes a medial portion located between the base and the end portion. The medial portion is configured to resiliently bias the end portion away from the base.

Abstract: A percussive massage device includes a housing. The housing defines a handle portion and a corner where the handle portion meets another portion of the housing. The percussive massage device also includes a motor contained within the housing, a reciprocation shaft coupled to the motor and configured to reciprocate when the motor is active, and a heart rate sensor located at the corner.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for an event detection system that captures data associated with events while a DC casting system forms an ingot, determines characteristics of the events, and improves the casting system based on the events. Example systems and methods may include initiating a casting operation using one or more pieces of equipment of a casting system including a casting apparatus; capturing sensor data associated with one or more acoustic signals captured relative to the one or more pieces of equipment performing the casting operation; comparing the sensor data with a set of acoustic profiles; determining whether a particular type of event has occurred; causing an adjustment to the casting system or to the casting operation based on whether the particular type of event has occurred; and initiating a second casting operation using the adjusted casting system or casting operation.

Abstract: A percussive therapy device includes a housing, a motor, a reciprocation shaft coupled to the motor and configured to reciprocate when the motor is active, an infrared radiation emitter contained in the housing, and a fan. The housing includes a window including a surface. The fan is configured to direct air along an air flow path, and a portion of the air flow path extends along the surface of the window.

Abstract: A catalyst for the electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide to a C2+ product. The catalyst comprises copper and a metal (M) selected from the group consisting of: yttrium (Y), zinc (Zn), lanthanum (La) and gadolinium (Gd); wherein the molar ratio of Cu:M is from 100:1 to 100:10. The catalyst has particular use in a gas diffusion electrode, a catalyst coated membrane of an electrolyser.

Abstract: An electrical receptacle, that receives an electrical plug having a male terminal or a female terminal, includes the other of the male terminal or female terminal and a latch that, responsive to movement of the electrical plug toward the electrical receptacle resulting in movement of the male terminal into the female terminal, rides along serrations of the serrated insert such that the latch and one of the serrations cooperate to resist disengagement of the electrical plug from the electrical receptacle.

Abstract: A fireproof safe cover designed to provide protection against fire, excessive heat, and smoke for safes such as gun safes used for storing valuable items. The cover includes a rear wall, side walls, a top surface, and a zippered front surface and can be slipped directly over a safe in a closed orientation with front surface zippered/fastened. The zippers mounted along opposing edges of the front surface can be unfastened for easy access of the safe in an open orientation. The cover is available in different sizes and colors and is made of fire-resistant material to safeguard the safe and its contents. The rear wall of the cover has openings for electrical wiring, and the cover can be personalized with embroidered logos or indicia. In some embodiments, the cover has recessed, reinforced, and/or pass-through areas for easy access of the safe and to accommodate protrusions of the safe.
