  • System, method, and computer program for providing notification of a cashback reward from a shopping portal using online screen and email analysis
    Patent number: 10740781
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system, method, and computer program for providing users with notifications of a cashback rewards from a shopping portal using screen and email analysis. A shopping portal system analyzes the content and characteristics of user emails, as well as screens viewed by the user through a client application (e.g., webpages and mobile application screens), to identify probable order-confirmation emails and screens. In response to identifying an order-confirmation email or an order-confirmation screen, the system determines whether a cashback reward should be credited to the user for the order corresponding to the order-confirmation email/screen. In response to an order-confirmation email or screen satisfying the criteria for a cashback reward, the system credits a user account with the cashback reward and notifies the user of the reward.

  • Wall-Mounted Collapsible Exercise System
    Patent number: 10737134
    Abstract: A wall-mounted collapsible exercise system which is adjustable between a collapsed position against a wall and an expanded position for use in multiple exercise configurations. The wall-mounted collapsible exercise system generally includes a mount support adapted to be connected to a wall, a body support adapted to support an exerciser, and a base support adapted to support the body support when the body support is in use. The body support may be pivotably connected to the mount support and the base support may be pivotably connected to the body support such that the body support and base support are adjustable between a first collapsed position for storage and a second expanded position for use. When in the expanded position, the body support may be converted between a glute ham developer configuration and a reverse hyper configuration through use of various exercise attachments.

  • TOOL AND SYSTEM FOR MEASUREMENT, DESIGN COMMUNICATION, ORDERING AND MANUFACTURE OF FLUID HANDLING SYSTEMS AND PARTS
    Publication number: 20200250358
    Abstract: The invention relates generally to a system used to produce a prototype part and subsequently an accurate design specification for a fluid or gas handling system/hose and or tube assembly, followed by the subsequent communication of that specification into an ordering interface that processes the specification into a usable format as a means to accurately produce and re-create the original specification in a remote location by a specific manufacturing process, in order to supply the originator of the design an accurate, working part, produced in the specified materials in a rapid, convenient and cost effective manner. The process has global applications in various industries, markets and vehicle or machinery types, particularly where it is inconvenient or prohibitively expensive to have the work performed on-site by a technician.
