    Abstract: A painting device includes a paint output part for outputting paint toward an object to be painted; an introduction pipe through which the paint flows and which introduces the paint into the paint output part; flowmeters placed outside the introduction pipe and measuring the flow rate of the paint in the introduction pipe; and a determination unit for determining whether the condition of the paint is normal on the basis of the result of measurement by the flow meters. The flow meter can be placed between an air motor and a valve. The flow meters can be placed downstream and upstream of the valve, respectively. The flow meters can be placed downstream and upstream of a joint, respectively. The flow meters can be placed downstream and upstream of a pump, respectively.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, devices, systems, and a computer readable medium for controlling an automatic guided vehicle (AGV). In some embodiments of the method, a first load identifier is determined at a first location on a predetermined trajectory of the AGV. The first load identifier represents a first load condition at the first location. A first set of values of a plurality of control parameters is determined based on the first load identifier. A movement of the AGV is controlled based on the first set of values. With these embodiments, the movement of the AGV can be controlled according to a set of values of control parameters based on the load condition.

    Abstract: In one aspect, a fuel cell power system is provided. The fuel cell power system includes a ring bus, a plurality of bidirectional uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs), a plurality of direct current (DC) fuel cell modules, and a plurality of bidirectional direct current to alternating current (DC-AC) power converters. Each of the plurality of UPSs is electrically coupled to at least one battery, an AC utility feed, a load, and via a choke, the ring bus. Each of the plurality of DC fuel cell modules includes one or more fuel cells coupled to a hydrogen storage. Each of the plurality of bidirectional DC-AC power converters is electrically coupled to a corresponding one of the plurality of DC fuel cell modules and a corresponding one of the plurality of bidirectional UPSs at the AC utility feed.

    Abstract: A medium voltage circuit breaker switching pole includes: a fixed contact of a vacuum interrupter; a movable contact of the interrupter; and a threaded drive element. The movable contact moves along a longitudinal axis of the interrupter. A center axis of the drive element is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the interrupter. When in an open configuration the fixed contact and movable contact are separated from one another. When in a closed configuration the fixed contact and movable contact are in contact with one another. Rotation of the drive element about its center axis in a first direction is transitions the switching pole from the open configuration to the closed configuration. Rotation of the drive element about its center axis in a second direction counter to the first direction transitions the switching pole from the closed configuration to the open configuration.
