The currently disclosed two-way, by-passable, overrunning clutch may be used as a joint in the limb(s) of a robot. In particular, the knee joint system enables a walking robot to walk more efficiently, with greater stability, and with increased ability to recover from falls. The non-microprocessor mechanical prosthetic knee joint can be split into two parts through the WSC [wrap-spring-clutch] central body. This enables [the] mounting of the joint system on either side of an intact knee or other joint, to serve as an integral component of an exoskeleton or orthotic system. 1, record 1, English, - walking%20robot

Entre los robots móviles encontramos los caminantes, que utilizan el movimiento sincronizado de sus patas para desplazarse. Los robots caminantes presentan características muy interesantes que los hacen destacar frente a los demás robots móviles terrestres. Algunas de estas ventajas son la mayor movilidad en terrenos irregulares debido a su capacidad para evitar obstáculos, o poder utilizar alguna de sus extremidades como manipulador para realizar alguna tarea […] 1, record 1, Spanish, - robot%20caminante

Through-hole technology is the mounting process by which component leads are placed into the drilled hole of a bare printed circuit board and soldered to the pads on the opposite side. This can be achieved with either manual assembly or automated insertion mount machines. Through-hole mounting was the standard practice until surface-mount technology(SMT) debuted in the 1980s. 3, record 2, English, - automated%20insertion%20mount%20machine

Each NASA ISPR provides 1. 6 m³(55. 5ft³) of internal volume. The rack weighs 104 kg(230 lbm) and can accommodate an additional 700 kg(1543 lbm) of payload equipment. The rack has internal mounting provisions to allow attachment of secondary structure. The ISPRs will be outfitted with a thin center post to accommodate sub-rack-sized payloads, such as the 48. 3 cm(19 in) Spacelab Standard Interface Rack(SIR) Drawer or the Space Shuttle Middeck Locker. Utility pass-through ports are located on each side to allow cables to be run between racks. Module attachment points are provided at the top of the rack, and via pivot points at the bottom of the rack. The pivot points support installation and maintenance. Tracks on the exterior front posts allow mounting of payload equipment and laptop computers. Additional adapters on the ISPRs are provided for ground handling. 3, record 5, English, - international%20standard%20payload%20rack
