  • Patent number: 11920628
    Abstract: An equipment mounting system for mounting equipment to a support structure is described. An equipment mounting system including: (i) a mounting plate having defined therein a plate aperture of a particular shape; (ii) a bolt having a shaft portion including a threaded portion and a non-threaded portion that is of a complementary shape that complements the particular shape of the plate aperture; and (iii) a washer having defined therein a scored aperture that includes multiple radially extending scorings. In an assembled configuration of the mounting plate, the bolt and the washer, the plate aperture of the particular shape aligns with the scoring aperture such that both of the plate aperture and the scoring aperture receive the non-threaded portion of the complementary shape, and the particular shape of the mounting plate engages with the complementary shape of the bolt to prevent rotational displacement of the bolt around the mounting plate.

  • Patent number: 6749512
    Abstract: A real time video frame sequence is spread in time, frame by frame, to match the transmission rate and bandwidth of a computer communication network and once transmitted is reconstructed at the receiving site to its real time frame rate. The video frame sequence may be loaded, frame by frame, into a first-in-first-out memory stack to be substituted for the conventional video frame network transmission whenever a high excitement event is indicated by the audio level associated with the video frame sequence, the first-in-first-out memory stacking allowing for the usual group reaction delay. The method is particularly useful in transmitting video images from selected gaming sites of a casino.
