Abstract: A tugger cart system used in an industrial setting, including a tugger cart and a controller. The tugger cart includes a tugger frame, a bay that is dimensioned to receive a rider cart, a platform configured to secure a rider cart within the bay, and at least one motor that pivots a plurality of wheels from side to side to steer the plurality of wheels. The tugger frame further includes a connector bracket that pivots from side to side along a vertical axis. The connector bracket is configured to attach the tugger frame to an adjacent tugger cart or tugger truck. A sensor system senses a degree that the connector bracket is pivoted relative to the tugger frame and generates an electronic signal. The controller receives the electronic signal from the sensor system and controls the motor to steer the plurality of wheels based on the electronic signal.

Abstract: A chemical composition comprising a mixture of a non-curing organic polymer base with a viscosity between 300 and 10,000 centipoises at 20 degrees C.° and a molecular weight of between 1,000 and 100,000. Into the base is mixed at least one of: metal particles (coated or uncoated), inert particles and non-metal corrosion inhibitors such that reaches a viscosity of between 9,000 and 10,000,000 centipoises. The result is a paste that is useful in applying to metal aircraft parts to help prevent corrosion, including galvanic corrosion.

Abstract: A molybdate solution is disclosed from which molybdate oxide coatings may be derived on metal particles or metal mesh. The coated metal particles may then be combined with a film forming binder and, optionally, corrosion inhibitors to make a corrosion composition. The coated metal mesh may then be used in making gaskets that inhibit corrosion.

Abstract: A tugger cart includes a tugger frame having a first side member, a second side member, and a locking member disposed in between the first side member and the second side member. A first roller assembly is coupled to an inner surface of the first side member and a second roller assembly coupled to an inner surface of the second side member. Each of the first roller assembly and the second roller assembly include a roller assembly frame and a plurality of wheels rotatably coupled to the roller assembly frame. The roller assembly frame supports the plurality of wheels at a slant that declines from a rear of the tugger frame to a front of the tugger frame. An actuator is configured to raise and lower the first roller assembly and the second roller assembly relative to the first side member and the second side member respectively.

Abstract: Methods, systems and apparatuses related to providing, among other things, a collaboration and travel ecosystem are discussed herein. For example, various tools and functionality may be provided that assist a client in determining the availability of telepresence equipment, the cost to use the telepresence equipment, the potential return on investment for money spent traveling as compared to conducting a telepresence event, among other things. In some embodiments, a user interface may be presented to a client that presents various information associated with, e.g., the telepresence equipment and/or facilitates the booking of the telepresence equipment. One or more backend systems may be used to, for example, coordinate the booking of a telepresence event and/or the booking of traditional travel events. In some embodiments, business rules and/or other types of data may be generated, received, maintained and/or received by the backend system(s).
