Abstract: Approaches are described for coating various flexible media, such as sheets of paper, synthetic polymer (polyolefin, polyester, etc.) sheets or fabric sheets, with a silicone on high-speed rolls. For example, an efficient method is described for minimizing and/or reducing mist formation when coating flexible supports with a liquid silicone composition precursor of crosslinked coatings. The coating process can be performed using a coating device that includes a roll operating at a high speed.

Abstract: Hitch mounted robot systems and methods for operating the same are disclosed. A hitch mounted robot system includes a coupling mechanism that is insertable into a hitch receiver on a vehicle and a height adjustment mechanism coupled to the coupling mechanism. The height adjustment mechanism automatically moves the coupling mechanism in a system vertical direction to lift the hitch mounted robot system off a ground surface when the coupling mechanism is inserted into the hitch receiver.

Abstract: A power assist device may include a motor, a motor driving circuit, sensors to output signals in accordance with a rotational speed of the wheel, a memory, and a signal processor. The memory stores information of a parameter defining a transfer function that interrelates a total torque to be input to the vehicle and a rotational speed of the wheel, and an inverse transfer function thereof. Based on the inverse transfer function, the signal processor determines an estimated value of total torque from a detected value of rotational speed of the wheel. Moreover, based on the transfer function, the signal processor updates at least a portion of the information of the parameter so that, for example, an error between a detected value of rotational speed of the wheel and an estimated value of rotational speed of the wheel as determined from the estimated value of total torque is reduced.

Abstract: A mobile X-ray imaging apparatus has an angle sensor and a movement calculation circuit that controls the driving of drive wheels based on the turning angle of auxiliary wheels relative to a straight moving direction of the base unit when a fine movement switch instructs movement of the base unit in the fine movement mode. The turning angle of auxiliary wheels is detected by a turning angle sensor and the rotation of the pair of drive wheels is controlled by the movement calculation circuit as the auxiliary wheels turns to the straight moving direction.

Abstract: An electric-powered vehicle includes a drive wheel and a coasting wheel. The drive wheel and the coasting wheel are spaced apart from each other in a vehicle traveling direction. A frame is arranged between the drive wheel and the coasting wheel and rotationally supports the drive wheel and the coasting wheel. The frame has an object mounting portion. A stay is coupled to the frame and extends upward from the frame. A seat and a handlebar are supported by the stay. The vehicle has a plurality of modes including a ride mode, in which a user uses the vehicle while being seated on the seat and holding the handlebar, and a cart mode, in which the user uses the vehicle while standing on the ground and holding the handlebar. The vehicle is selectively switched to a shape corresponding to each of the modes.
