  • Publication number: 20240152922
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for verifying geolocation of a user, and more specifically to verifying geolocation of the user for marketplace aggregator when parties listed on the marketplace aggregator have differing geolocation requirements. A system can receive available transactions from third party computing systems, such as sportsbooks, where the available transactions require location verification. The system can display the available transactions, and the user can select one or more of those transactions. The system can then execute location verification of the user, and initiate, after receiving the verified location, communications between the system and the third party computing system, the communications enabling fulfillment of the selection.

  • Publication number: 20230341113
    Abstract: A frame for supporting a light fixture has regions of its sidewall corners that are double walled and secured with at least one mechanical-fastener (e.g., a rivet) at each such region of the sidewall corners. This results in a stronger frame that is able to support heavier loads as compared to a frame without such reinforced corner regions. The frame also has holes on its largest-planar-member for attaching to I-brackets and the I-brackets may be attached to a light-fixture-can of the light fixture. The frame also has different holes, on opposing sidewalls, that may be attached to a junction-box that covers over a largest-hole of the frame. Each I-bracket has a concave-surface for concentrically pressing up against an exterior surface of the light-fixture-can. Each I-bracket may attached to the light-fixture-can and to the frame. The I-brackets permit a height of the light-fixture-can to be set at different heights.

  • Patent number: 11662084
    Abstract: A reflector and of a holding-plate slidingly attach to each other to form a flangeless trim assembly. The reflector may be removably attached to a spackle-frame. The spackle-frame may be installed within ceiling drywall around a hole for a downlight. The holding-plate may be attached to a lighting module. In a default resting configuration, a top of the reflector butts up against a bottom of the holding-plate because springs push these two parts towards each other. When an opposing force is applied that is greater than the spring's force, then a variable gap is formed between the reflector and the holding-plate, but while the reflector and the holding-plate are still attached to each other. This gap may be used by human finger(s) to both disengage the reflector from the spackle-frame and to pull down the reflector, the holding-plate, and the lighting module from the spackle-frame—all without tools.

  • Publication number: 20220243883
    Abstract: A lighting-junction-box-assembly-for-remodel (assembly) has a lighting-junction-box, leg-springs attached to the lighting-junction-box, and mounting-tabs attached to the lighting-junction-box. The leg-springs are used to (temporarily) hold (by friction) the assembly within a hole in an existing ceiling, sized to fit the assembly. While the leg-springs are (temporarily) holding the assembly within the hole in the existing ceiling, other/different holes within extension-portions of the mounting-tabs are used to secure the entire assembly to the existing ceiling, via mechanical fasteners passing through the extension-portion holes and into the existing ceiling. An existing ceiling may be retrofitted with this assembly to have a lighting-junction-box where desired/needed in that existing ceiling; and as such, this assembly is particularly useful in remodeling situations (applications); however, the assembly may also be used in new construction.
