Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus for installing a screen protector on an electronic device is disclosed. The apparatus includes a support member and a first assembly. The support member has an upper support surface configured to support an electronic device. The first assembly includes a first member and an actuator. When the electronic device with a screen protector positioned thereon is supported on the upper support surface of the support member, actuating the actuator of the first assembly causes the first member to move into contact with the screen protector and to apply a force onto the screen protector to tack the screen protector to the electronic device.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for treating viral infections, or inhibiting, slowing or halting replication of a virus, e.g., an airborne respiratory virus, by administering to a nasal cavity of a subject in need thereof a composition comprising colostrum. The compositions can further comprise an algan polysaccharide, for example fucoidan. The compositions can be in the form of a nasal spray, nasal drops, nasal mist, or a nasal swab.

Abstract: An apparatus and/or method for installing a screen protector on an electronic device, for example using a wet application process. The apparatus includes a support member for supporting the electronic device and a clamp mechanism for clamping the electronic device in a fixed position on the support member. A tack assembly is used to tack the screen protector to the electronic device. The tack assembly includes an actuator that, once actuated, causes a tack member to apply a force onto the screen protector which tacks the screen protector to the electronic device and prevents misalignment. Finally, a roller assembly is actuated so that a roller member moves across the screen protector to bond the screen protector to the electronic device and remove any excess liquid that may exist between the screen protector and the electronic device.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems are disclosed for producing a screen protector. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a multi-layered sheet into a cutting device, the cutting device configured to provide different cut types. A characteristic of the sheet received into the cutting device is determined. Based thereon, a cut type is determined. The sheet is cut according to the determined cut type to form the screen protector. Further, a charge for the cutting of the sheet is determined based on the cut type.

Abstract: A protected electronic device assembly that includes an electronic device having a display screen and an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner and a multi-layer screen protector that overlies and protects the display screen without rendering the ultrasonic fingerprint scanner inoperable. A multi-layer screen protector that is capable of being utilized on portable electronic devices that utilize the aforementioned ultrasonic fingerprint scanner technology.

Abstract: A hoist system may comprise a collapsible frame, a mounting mechanism, and a pulley mechanism. The mounting mechanism may secure the collapsible frame onto a tree. The pulley mechanism may be operably coupled to the collapsible frame to help pull a load up the tree.

Abstract: A friction spinning apparatus includes a yarn winder and a pair of friction spinning rollers of which one is perforated and provided with a suction slot which is opened and closed on rotation of a piecing lever, means being provided for interconnecting operation of the piecing lever with, on the one hand, restoration of the winding operation and, on the other hand, restoration of fibre feed to the nip between the two friction spinning rollers.Preferably the interconnecting means comprise a pair of cams on the drive shaft linked to the piecing lever and co-operable with respective switches to control drive to the fibre feed roller of the fibre-opening unit and also the package lift mechansim to initiate winding.

Abstract: In a controlled stopping procedure for an open-end spinning machine the fibre feed roller and the yarn delivery rollers decelerate in synchronism. A detector senses a predetermined speed of the yarn delivery rollers after a period of time from starting the deceleration and initiates the stopping of the fibre feed roller. After a further period of time, determined by time delay means, the decelerating yarn delivery rollers are braked. Preferably the yarn delivery rollers have come almost to rest when they are braked.
