Patent WO-2022195286-A1 (WO)
Inventor: JAMES HENRY
IPC: H01R25/00
Filed: 2022-03-17
Abstract: 32 Abstract1 The invention provides a means by which consumer electronic devices, and particularly power connectors which are a significant point of weakness and redundancy, can be repaired and/or upgraded with relative ease. A replaceable power connection module may replace (or be used instead of) a conventional charging port which is often the first part of a consumer electronic device to fail, and in the event of such failure the power connection module can be removed and replaced with an identical or similar module, rather than requiring expert intervention to repair. The replaceable power connection module also enables ease of upgrade to newer interface types in that a power connection module comprising a first type of interface or port can be removed and replaced with a power connection module comprising a second type of interface or port, without requiring that the device itself be upgraded. While it is primarily envisaged that the lighting unit (or other consumer/electronic device) be provided with such a replaceable power connection module, a base unit might also be provided with a similar module again to aid in repair and/or upgrade. The invention is not limited to solar power system applications, and may find utility in any consumer electronic device which may be beneficial to upgrade or repair without expert assistance.

Inventor: HITCHCOCK WILLIAM JOHN
IPC: G05D1/00
Filed: 2023-05-18
Abstract: A method for optimising the flight path of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) configured to carry out inspection of solar modules in large-scale solar array installations. The method comprises using a sensor mounted to a UAV to capture an image of at least part of a table of solar modules in a solar array installation. Using a processor, operatively connected to the sensor, the image is converted into image data. Using a machine learning model the boundary of the at least part of the table is detected and UAV perturbation values determined, from the image data. A control algorithm is used to process the UAV perturbation values and to calculate corrected flight path values and the flight path values are passed to a flight controller to navigate the UAV.

Abstract: A surgical instrument holder (10) is made up of a head assembly (68) and a drive spindle assembly (42). The head assembly (68) has a shank (12) with a first driveable end (14) and second coupling end (16). The second end has a coupling device (20) having an interface (22 ) for receiving a surgical instrument (24). The instrument (24) is held in functional assembly to the shank by a releasable locking mechanism (26). The releasable locking mechanism (26) is made up of a ring (30) slideably disposed about the shank, a spring (32) biased against the coupling device (20) by the ring, and a connection device (34) retaining the ring in a fixed position during use. The drive spindle assembly (42) is connected to the head assembly (68) so as to transmit torque therethrough. The spindle assembly (42) has an elongated drive spindle (40), high­precision bearings (44, 120, 122) and a cylindrical tube (46). The drive spindle (40) is releasably mounted to an end (36) of the spindle assembly and is supported for rotation within the cylindrical tube (46) by the high-precision bearings disposed therebetween and held in place at least in part by the shank (12). The bearings (44) precisely control the position of a surgical instrument (24) affixed thereto. The connection device (34) provides a common quick-release connection with the head assembly (68) and the drive spindle assembly (42), such that unlocking of the connection device (34) enables quick disassembly of the connection device, spring (32), ring (30), and drive spindle assembly (42) for cleaning and component sterilization.
