Abstract: A hand drill lifting and actuating apparatus includes a post has a bottom end and a top end. The post is telescopic and includes an upper section and a lower section. A mount is attached to the top end and releasably secures a drill to the post. An actuator is mounted on the post and engages a switch on the drill to turn the drill on. A fulcrum is attached to the lower section of the post. A handle has a first end and a second end. The first end is pivotally coupled to the upper section. The handle is pivotally coupled to the fulcrum between the first and second ends such that the upper section is lifted upwardly when the second end is urged downwardly. The mount is thereby urged upwardly when the second end is pulled downwardly.

Abstract: A control system and related method for controlling the machine in a mine. The control system may comprise a LADAR, an interface device, a processor and an AECM. The LADAR may be configured to capture scan data of physical mine walls. The interface device may be configured to display a mine map illustrating a section of the mine. The processor may be configured to add a virtual wall to the mine map in response to a first user input. The processor may be configured to add a temporary wall to the mine map in response to a second user input. The temporary wall may be based on scan data of a physical mine wall captured by the LADAR. The AECM is configured to control an operation of the machine, based on the mine map, to avoid collision of the machine with the virtual wall or the temporary wall.

Abstract: Included are systems and methods for modeling compliant parts. Some of the systems and/or methods include creating a 3-dimensional simulation of a product that includes an outer part and an inner part, determining a deformation characteristic of the product, and simulating an interaction of the inner part with the outer part. Similarly, in some of the systems and/or methods a characteristic of interaction may be measured from the interaction, a determination may be made regarding whether the characteristic of interaction meets a predetermined threshold. In some of the systems and/or methods, in response to determining that the characteristic of interaction meets the predetermined threshold, an output may be sent indicating product design acceptability. In response to determining that the characteristic of interaction does not meet the predetermined threshold, the 3-dimensional simulation may be iteratively altered until the characteristic of interaction meets the predetermined threshold.
