Abstract: A control system for a motorized valve. The control system comprises a backup circuit comprising energy storage means and a discharge gate through which the energy storage means can be selectively discharged to provide a discharge actuation pulse to the valve to cause the valve to move to a safe (e.g. closed) position. The backup circuit further includes an energy harvesting circuit for harvesting power from the power supply lines. The energy harvesting circuit is able to harvest sufficient energy within the duration for a single actuation pulse provided by the motor controller to charge the energy storage means from zero to a sufficient level to allow the backup circuit to generate at least one corresponding discharge actuation pulse for causing the valve to move to the safe position.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides various methods and embodiments for alerting a customer when requested food items are not available. When a customer places a grocery request, the system determines whether the requested items are available. If the system determines the requested items are not available, an alert is sent to the customer before a scheduled pick up time.

Abstract: A fastener system for quick and easy assembly of an article of slatted furniture is used to join multiple slats and connects a support thereto. A flange inserted into one of the slats receives a stud connected to the support. A rod connects a plurality the slats, and mates with the flange. The flange and rod are rotatable within the slats to properly position and tighten the fastener system.

Abstract: A system includes a seat frame. The seat frame includes a fore beam and an aft beam. The system includes a pouch. The pouch includes: an opening; a top panel extending from the opening; an end panel abutting the top panel; a first side panel abutting the top panel and the end panel; a second side panel abutting the top panel and the end panel; a bottom panel abutting the first side panel, the second side panel, and the end panel; a curved panel extending from the opening toward the bottom panel and abutting the first side panel, the second side panel, and the bottom panel; a closeout flap extending from a top edge of the opening and abutting the top panel; aft straps attached to the top panel and secured around the aft beam; and fore straps attached to the top panel and secured around the fore beam.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides various methods and embodiments for substitution of remotely-ordered grocery items. When a customer places a grocery request, the system determines whether substitution items are available for the requested items and, if so, will communicate the substitution items to the customer. Upon acceptance of the substitution items, the system will schedule delivery of the substitution items to the customer.

Abstract: A touch display device includes a substrate, a display element layer, a composite substrate, a touch electrode and an adhesive layer. The display element layer is disposed on the substrate. The composite substrate includes a support layer and a moisture barrier layer. The moisture barrier layer is in direct contact with and covers a surface of the support layer. The display element layer is located between the substrate and the composite substrate. A moisture transmission rate of the moisture barrier layer is less than 1×10?2 g/m2/day. The touch electrode is disposed on the composite substrate. The adhesive layer is disposed between the display element layer and the composite substrate.

Abstract: The invention provides a touch display device and an operation method for the touch display device. The touch display device includes an integrated control circuit and a touch driver. The integrated control circuit is coupled to the touch driver. The integrated control circuit outputs a first synchronization signal to the touch driver. The touch driver outputs a touch mode signal to the integrated control circuit, so that the integrated control circuit generates a synchronization enabling signal to the touch driver according to the touch mode signal.

Abstract: A display device including a display panel and a driving circuit is provided. The display panel is configured to display an image frame. The driving circuit is coupled to the display panel. The driving circuit is configured to output a gate signal to drive the display panel to display the image frame during a driving period. The driving period includes a first period, a second period, and a third period. The gate signal has a first voltage level during the first period and a second voltage level during the second period. The second voltage level is greater than the first voltage level.

Abstract: Plasma processing apparatus for processing a workpiece are provided. In one example embodiment, a plasma processing apparatus for processing a workpiece includes a processing chamber, a plasma chamber separated from the processing, and an inductively coupled plasma source configured to generate a plasma in the plasma chamber. The apparatus includes a pedestal disposed within the processing chamber configured to support a workpiece. The apparatus includes an insert disposed in the plasma chamber movable to one or more vertical positions within the plasma chamber. Methods for processing of workpieces are also provided.

Abstract: A method for producing singulated encapsulated components. The method includes the steps of application of a frame structure on a substrate surface of a substrate, wherein the frame structure surrounds components arranged on the substrate surface; bonding of a cover substrate on the frame structure; hardening of the frame structure; and singulation of the encapsulated components, wherein the frame structure is formed from an adhesive.
