Abstract: A computer-implemented technique is described herein for removing sensitive content from documents in a manner that preserves the usefulness of the documents for subsequent analysis. For instance, the technique obscures sensitive content in the documents, while retaining meaningful information in the documents for subsequent processing by a machine-learning engine or other machine-implemented analysis mechanisms. According to one illustrative aspect, the technique removes sensitive content from documents using a modification strategy that is chosen based on one or more selection factors. One selection factor pertains to the nature of the processing that is to be performed on the documents after they have been anonymized.

Abstract: A component for a vehicle comprises two or more first members each formed of a plateable resin and defining a front surface, wherein the front surfaces of the first members (i) are spaced apart from each other such that they appear discontinuous and (ii) collectively correspond to an outer surface of the component, a second member formed of a non-plateable resin and connected to each of the first members and a chrome plating applied to one or more exposed surfaces of each of the first members. A method of manufacturing the component involves utilizing one or more molds and removing a non-plated component comprising the first members and the second member from one of the one or more molds, attaching the non-plated component to a plating rack, such as via a permanent or temporary conductive circuit, and then performing the chrome plating.

Abstract: An inclusive steaming system for baking dough and method of baking bread enhances the baking of baguettes by providing an elongated baking container is preheatable to high heat prior to receiving dough. A water-capture platform positions in the cavity of baking container, in a parallel, spaced-apart relationship with bottom wall of baking container. The water-capture platform forms a depression that captures melted ice water. When heated, the water-capture platform generates steam in cavity of baking container from melted ice droplets. A perforated baking panel positions in the cavity of baking container, in an elevated relationship from water-capture platform. The baking panel forms a middle ice trough for ice, and a pair of outer dough troughs for receiving elongated dough. As baking container is heated, steam is generated Spacing and perforation in baking panel provides optimal environment for steam circulation around the dough, creating a crunchy outer crust and chewy crumb.

Abstract: A method and system for analyzing machinery operating parameters are provided. The method is implemented using a computing device coupled to a user interface and a memory device. The method can include determining an ideal curve of a first operating parameter of a machine that can include a plurality of component parts. The method also can include receiving an indication of a second operating parameter of the machine and receiving an indication of the first operating parameter of the machine wherein the indication of the first operating parameter is correlated to the received indication of the second operating parameter. The method further can include normalizing the indication of the first operating parameter to the ideal curve of the first operating parameter and determining a condition of the machine based on the normalizing of the indication of the first operating parameter to the ideal curve of the first operating parameter.

Abstract: A rock collecting apparatus includes a frame that has a front side, a back side, a first lateral side and a second lateral side. A pair of wheels is rotatably attached to the frame. A housing for receiving and carrying a plurality of rocks is mounted on the frame. A hitch connector is coupled to the frame and a rake is pivotally coupled to the frame adjacent to the front side. The rake engages rocks such that the rocks are moved upwardly into the housing. The rake is positionable in a deployed position positioned adjacent to the ground surface or in a stored position spaced from the ground surface. A shovel is rotatably mounted to the rake and moves rocks up the rake and into the housing.

Abstract: A poultry loading assembly includes a primary frame and a chute operationally coupled to the primary frame. A primary scissor is operationally coupled between the primary frame and the chute and is actuated to lower or lift the chute. A first conveyor belt is rotatably mounted on the chute and receiving poultry thereon proximate a loading area. A head is operationally coupled to the chute opposite the loading area and is continuously retained in a parallel orientation with the support surface. The head is selectively positionable proximate the container and is selectively movable toward or away from a container. A second conveyor belt is operationally coupled to the head. The first conveyor belt transports the poultry to the second conveyor belt and thereafter the second conveyor belt transports the poultry into the container.

Abstract: An approach is provided in which a data collection system loads a user interface form on a display screen. The user interface form includes an entry field and an extraction formula with a corresponding element type that adheres to an industry-specific schema. The data collection system receives a data packet from a broadcast device, which includes an element value and an element type identifier adhering to the same industry-specific schema. In turn, the data collection system determines whether the element type identifier matches the element type and, if so, the data collection system populates the entry field on the display screen with the element value.

Abstract: A damper actuator assembly comprises a gear train including a follower gear. The follower gear is arranged such that the position of the follower gear indicates the position of at least one blocking member of a damper that the actuator is connected to. A sensor is positioned within the damper actuator and is configured to monitor the position of the follower gear. Accordingly, the sensor is configured to provide an electrical signal indicative of the position of the follower gear to a processor. A driving member is connected to the gear train and is configured to drive the gear train at two or more variable speeds depending on the electrical signal provided to the processor from the sensor.
