摘要： A mobile powered workstation can include a head unit assembly that can have at least one power outlet configured to provide power to at least one electronic device. The workstation can include a power system coupled to the head unit assembly. The power system can include a permanent battery and a battery assembly. The battery assembly can include a battery connection housing that can have a plurality of power connectors configured to electrically couple to a corresponding plurality of power connectors of a replaceable battery, the battery connection housing can have a first face and a second face that extends from the first face. The first face can define a first raised portion configured to engage with a corresponding first recessed portion in the replaceable battery. The second face can define a second raised portion configured to engage with a corresponding second recessed portion in the replaceable battery.

摘要： The present disclosure relates to a workstation and a technique to automatically configure the workstation. The workstation can be used to perform various tasks including but not limited to medication delivery, collection of medical records, patient care, manufacturing operations, and others. The workstation can be configured by the user depending on the tasks to be performed using the workstation. Various sensors (e.g., hall effect sensors, optical sensors, or the like) can be coupled to the workstation, and sensor operators (e.g., magnets, color coded strips, or the like) can be coupled to the modules. By aligning sensor operators with sensors when modules are coupled to the workstation, a configuration (e.g., size, shape, location, or the like) of modules can be automatically detected by the workstation controller. The controller of the workstation can then adapt to perform certain tasks (e.g., lock/unlock drawers, or the like) depending on the detected configuration of modules.

摘要： In an example, a method of controlling power distribution in a powered furniture system including a first article of powered furniture having a first controller and a first number of power outlets and a second article of powered furniture having a second number of power outlets and a second controller can include determining a first total number of power outlets in the system, wherein the first total number of power outlets includes at least the first number of power outlets of the first article of powered furniture. The method can include controlling application of power to the first number of power outlets associated with the first article of powered furniture using the determined first total number of power outlets in the system, and transmitting the first total number of power outlets to a second controller of a second article of powered furniture having a second number of power outlets.

摘要： A powered furniture system can include at least a first article of powered furniture having a control circuit, a first number of power outlets, and a first identification circuit, and a second article of powered furniture having a second number of power outlets and a second identification circuit. A method of controlling power distribution in the system can include separately communicating with the first and second identification circuits over a communications channel, receiving data representing the first and second numbers of power outlets, determining, using the received data representing the first and second numbers of power outlets, a total number of power outlets in the system, and controlling application of power to the first and second numbers of power outlets using the determined total number of power outlets in the system.
