Abstract: A structure of a circuitry substrate for securing an area from tampering is disclosed. The structure includes a circuitry substrate with at least one of a top tamper enclosure and a bottom tamper enclosure covering a component in a protected area of the circuitry substrate. The top and bottom tamper enclosures are adhesively bonded to a surface of the circuitry substrate, and a tear initiation site is added to a side of the perimeter of circuitry substrate bordering the protected area that includes at least one tamper enclosure, such that the tear initiation site is located and configured to enable propagation of a delamination of at least one internal layer of the circuitry substrate and a severing of a security circuit when a removal force is applied to the at least one of the top tamper enclosure and the bottom tamper enclosure.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a platen and process for using the platen for treating irregularly shaped textile such as a shoe upper. Platens disclosed herein can include a substantially flat platen comprising a base portion, an extension off the base portion, and a tip connected to the extension, in which all the respective components generally occupying a single plane. The base portion that includes at least one groove has a generally elongated shape with a distal end, a proximal end. The tip is configured to support one or more cords to apply tension to a textile. The platen also includes a securing member used to secure an edge of the textile to the base portion of the platen. The securing member can include protrusions running along one or both bottom edges to help secure the edge of a textile with the grooves.

Abstract: An armored cab having at least an upper wall, two side walls, a front wall, a back wall, and a bottom wall. The armored cab and its respective walls include a longitudinal axis extending from the back wall to the front wall. The bottom wall includes at least one concave surface. The at least one concave surface faces downwardly and away from the armored cab, and is disposed in a direction substantially parallel with the longitudinal axis of the armored cab.

Abstract: A barrier assembly for a motor vehicle having a shift lever and a kit for assembling the barrier assembly are disclosed. The barrier assembly has a retainer, a lever plate, seals and spacers. The retainer has a retainer aperture extending from a first surface to a second surface. The lever plate is moveable and has a lever opening extending from a first face to a second face. A gliding surface allows the lever plate to move in a planar motion parallel to the retainer while supported on the retainer. A first seal is located on the first face of the lever plate proximal to the lever opening. A second seal is located on the first face of the lever plate distal to the lever opening. Spacers project from the retainer distal to the retainer aperture.

Abstract: The disclosed vehicle armor includes a first layer forming an interior bottom surface of the cabin and comprised of a high-strength metal material, a second layer forming an exterior bottom surface of the cabin and comprised of a high-strength metal material, and, a middle layer sandwiched between the first and second layers and comprised of a polymer material. The underbelly device is configured having a plurality of high areas and low areas creating deflection faces and separation distances between an interior of the cabin and an exterior threat. A second, multi-layer composite structure, forming an interior floor of the cabin, may be incorporated as a fragmentation penetration barrier.

Abstract: A novelty candy product comprises a cylindrical barrel having mounted therein a hard candy portion slidable relative to said barrel. The barrel includes an open mouth end removably covered by a cap which is frictionally or otherwise retained in closing relation of the mouth. The end of the candy portion remote from the mouth carries a valve member which is yieldably urged toward the mouth by a coil spring. The barrel includes, at a position adjacent the mouth, a valve seat. When the cap is removed the coil spring projects the candy through the mouth and the valve into sealing engagement with the valve seat whereby syrups developed in the course of consuming the product are precluded from entering the interior of the barrel.
