Abstract: An assembly includes a dash and a deployable panel supported by the dash. The deployable panel is moveable relative to the dash from an undeployed position to a deployed position. The deployable panel has a proximal end at the dash in the deployed position and a distal end spaced above the dash in the deployed position. An airbag is supported by the dash and is inflatable to an inflated position. The airbag abuts the deployable panel when the deployable panel is in the deployed position and the airbag is in the inflated position. A tether extends from the airbag to the deployable panel in the undeployed position.

Abstract: Improved inspection techniques are described herein for checking for the presence of and identifying surface defects on a honeycomb body. The improved inspection utilizes measurement of travel of an outer surface of the honeycomb body to collect images of the outer surface. The images are combined into a composite image showing the outer surface of the honeycomb body. The composite image is analyzed to identify surface defects.

Abstract: An irrigation system having a pipeline supported by one or more towers includes an improved truss connection system having a means for readily adjusting a crown height of the pipeline. A pair of cooperating members define a joint which selectively couples headed ends of adjacent truss rods together to form a truss rail of a truss system that supports the pipeline. A single fastener may fasten the cooperating members, a strut, and a cross-member together at the joint. A length of the truss rail may be decreased by holding the truss rods closer together. In an aspect, the headed ends of the adjacent truss rods are held closer together by inserting a shim in one of the joints. Decreasing the length of the truss rail increases the deflection of the pipeline and raises the crown height.

Abstract: An assembly includes a dash and a deployable panel. The deployable panel has a proximal end rotatably connected to the dash. The deployable panel is rotatable about the proximal end from an undeployed position to a deployed position. The proximal end is engaged with the dash in the deployed position and the deployable panel has a distal end spaced above the dash in the deployed position. A member is supported by the dash and translatable upwardly from an undeployed position to a deployed position. The deployable panel abuts the member in the deployed position. The member is rigid relative to the panel in the deployed position. An airbag is supported by the dash and is inflatable to an inflated position. The airbag abuts the panel in the inflated position. The deployable panel is between the airbag and the member.

The tether extends through the back panel from the deployable panel to the impact panel.

Abstract: A personal exercise device with a cable and resistance mechanism comprises a sensor arrangement configured to detect two orthogonal angles to define a trajectory of the cable extending in the 3-dimensional space during use. The sensor arrangement comprises a pulley to direct the cable as it extends from the device during use, a cable follower through which the cable passes, the cable follower pivotally mounted to pivot about a first pivot axis and about a second pivot axis, the second pivot axis orthogonal to the first pivot axis, and wherein the first pivot axis is collinear with a rotational axis of the pulley, and one or more sensors configured to detect pivoting of the cable follower about the first and second pivot axes and provide one or more outputs indicative of the two orthogonal angles to define the trajectory of the cable extending in the 3-dimensional space.

Abstract: Embodiments of a cashdrawer exoskeleton system are disclosed. In one embodiment, a modular base piece has an integrated fastener configured to facilitate a coupling to a cash drawer. An aperture is formed through the top surface of the modular base piece and leads to an area where the cash drawer is positioned when the modular base piece is coupled to the cash drawer utilizing the integrated fastener. At least one spacer is then configured to facilitate creation of a gap between the modular base piece and the cash drawer when the modular base piece is coupled to the cash drawer utilizing the integrated fastener.

Abstract: An airbag assembly for a vehicle is provided that includes a housing coupled to the support structure of a vehicle. An airbag module is coupled to and supported by the housing. The airbag module includes an airbag deployable from an undeployed condition to a deployed condition, and an inflator configured to inflate the airbag from the undeployed condition to the deployed condition. An air duct that is configured to transmit an airflow is at least partially integrally coupled to the housing.

Abstract: An assembly includes an airbag inflatable to an inflated position. The assembly includes an airbag housing supporting the airbag, the airbag housing having a side wall that is movable outward to a deployed position upon inflation of the airbag. The assembly includes a display screen moveable from an initial position to a stowed position, the display screen operatively coupled to the side wall such that movement of the side wall to the deployed position moves the display screen to the stowed position.

Abstract: An assembly includes a housing having a sidewall defining a first slot and a second slot, the sidewall having a press plate between the first slot and the second slot, the press plate movable between an initial position and a deployed position. The assembly includes an airbag supported by the housing and inflatable from an uninflated position to an inflated position, the press plate being moveable from the initial position to the deployed position by inflation of the airbag from the uninflated position to the inflated position.

Abstract: A seat assembly for a vehicle includes a seat frame. The seat assembly includes an armrest. A hinge pivotally connects the armrest to the seat frame. The armrest includes an upper extension extending upwardly from the hinge and a lower extension extending downwardly from the hinge. The seat assembly includes a deformable member between the seat frame and the lower extension of the armrest. The deformable member is deformable relative to the seat frame and the armrest.

Abstract: Examples described herein generally relate to identifying a set of service events corresponding to an incident report, querying a multiple-layer relational graph to determine one or more other service events related to the set of service events, detecting a pattern in the set of service events and a subset of the one or more other service events, and indicating, via a user interface and based on the incident report, the subset of the one or more other service events as related to the incident report.

Abstract: A shielded semiconductor device has a first die attached to a die pad of a lead frame and a second die attached to a surface of the first die. The first die is electrically connected to inner lead ends of leads that surround the die pad, and the second die is electrically connected to the first die and to an inner end of a shielding lead. A mold compound forms a body around the first and second dies and the electrical connections. Outer lead ends of the leads project from the sides of the body. The outer end of the shielding lead projects from a central location of one side of the body and is bent up the side surface from which it projects and over the top of the body and provides EMI shielding.
