摘要： A robotic platform may include left and right platforms, a base platform, wheel assemblies, and a tilting suspension. The tilting suspension may include a tilt shaft coupled to the base platform, a crank, suspension arms, and a tilt assembly. The tilt shaft may extend along a substantially vertical tilt axis. The crank may extend substantially perpendicular to the tilt axis and may be coupled to the tilt shaft such that the crank at least partially rotates about the tilt axis along with the tilt shaft. The suspension arms may extend from the crank to the left and right platforms such that rotation of the crank about the tilt axis controls the tilt of the platforms. The tilt assembly may control rotation of the tilt shaft about the tilt axis to control the tilt of the left and right platforms. Various other systems are also disclosed.

摘要： Technology is provided for a server facility cooling system. The system can include a coolant tank containing an electrically insulating liquid and one or more servers submerged in the liquid. At least a portion of the heat generated by the servers is transferred to the liquid. An elongate cooling loop extends vertically between a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is located in the air and the second end is located underground. A heat exchanger is positioned between the coolant tank and the cooling loop to transfer heat from the liquid to the cooling loop. A cylindrical cooling tower is positioned around the first end of the cooling loop.

摘要： Technology is provided for an air flow cooling system and self-balancing robot incorporating the same. The robot includes a body, a robot controller disposed in the body, and a pair of axle housings extending from the body, each containing a drive assembly. An arm extends from the body and supports a head unit. A plurality of intake fans are disposed in the body and are configured to draw air into the body, thereby pressurizing the body, axle housings, and head unit. An axle fan is disposed in at least one of the pair of axle housings and is configured to exhaust air from the axle housings.

摘要： A social networking system includes information identifying a machine (e.g., a robot, a drone, a computer, a thermostat, etc.) and a connection between the machine and an owner of the machine, which is a user of the social networking system capable of authorizing an action by the machine. The owner of the machine associates permissions associated with various actions by the machine, where a permission associated with an action identifies one or more criteria for performing the action. Permissions may specify types of connections between social networking system users and the owner of the machine via the social networking system to allow social networking system users with specific types of connections to the owner of the machine to perform certain actions using the machine. Information describing an action performed by the machine may be communicated to other users of the social networking system via any suitable communication channel.

摘要： A driven caster wheel assembly may include a wheel, an axle, a drive assembly, a drive shaft, and a bevel gear. The wheel may be mounted to the axle for rotation about a drive axis and steering about a substantially vertical steering axis. The drive shaft may extend along the steering axis from a first end to a second end, with the first end being connected to the axle and the second end being connected to the drive assembly such that the drive assembly controls rotation of the drive shaft about the steering axis. The bevel gear may connect the first end to the axle such that rotation of the drive shaft about the steering axis controls rotation of the wheel about the drive axis to drive the driven caster wheel assembly in a substantially horizontal direction. Various other assemblies and methods are also disclosed.

摘要： A robot may include (1) a body having a pivot member, (2) a mobility subsystem, coupled to the body of the robot, that provides omnidirectional displacement of the robot along a plane, (3) a robotic arm, coupled to the body of the robot, for manipulating an object, and (4) a linking extension. The linking extension may include (1) a proximal end that is rotatably coupled to the pivot member of the body of the robot, and (2) a distal end that is dimensioned to rotatably couple to a coupling member of an assistant robot such that the linking extension links the robot and the assistant robot. The robot may also include a control subsystem, communicatively coupled to the mobility subsystem, that coordinates displacement of the robot by the mobility subsystem with displacement of the assistant robot. Various other apparatuses, systems, and methods are also disclosed.

摘要： A lamellar cover for use with an articulating joint is disclosed. The cover includes an annular retainer positionable adjacent a first portion of the articulating joint. A retainer fitting is positionable adjacent a second portion of the articulating joint that is moveable with respect to the first portion. A plurality of overlapping lamellar rings are supported between the annular retainer and the retainer fitting. Each lamellar ring includes a circular support ring, such as an o-ring, and a plurality of lamellas coupled to the circular support ring. One or more connectors extend between adjacent lamellar rings. Each of the plurality of overlapping lamellar rings has a ring diameter. One or more of the ring diameters decrease in size with respect to each other from the annular retainer to the retainer fitting thereby forming a tapered cover around the articulating joint.
