  • Patent number: 11966948
    Abstract: Online advertisers may demand compliance with certain standards for the content of emails and other digital content with which its advertisements may be associated. Emails may contain control objects directing users to a web page showing content related to oil change coupons. However, in some systems, methods, and processes, a small variable proportion of users may instead be directed to a different sequence of pages to conduct a compliance check on the contents of the email received by the user. The compliance check sequence of pages may offer the user an incentive to forward the email to a specified email address for subsequent compliance review. Delivery of an incentive may be conditioned on successful receipt of the forwarded email.

  • Publication number: 20110135416
    Abstract: A spindle apparatus for receiving and driving a tool holder, comprises a drive, a shaft coupled to the drive with a forward end of the shaft having a receptor for affixation of a tool holder, and a clamping device supported at the forward end of the shaft for integral driven rotation therewith. The clamping device has a clamping element disposed within the receptor and selectively actuable between an active position for retaining the tool holder and an inactive position for inserting and releasing the tool holder. An actuator is operatively connected with the clamping device for controlling movement of the clamping element between the active and inactive positions. The actuator is disposed adjacent the forward end of the shaft in surrounding relation thereto, which facilitates a particularly compact, efficient and reliable design.

  • Patent number: 7814871
    Abstract: A portable powered device such as a tool, comprising a housing within which is defined a combustion chamber (8) for combustion of a mixture of fuel and a combustion-supporting gas, which mixture is compressed so as to be subjected to a pressure in excess of the ambient atmospheric pressure prior to combustion, combustion of the fuel/combination-supporting gas mixture providing the power by which the device performs its intended task, and wherein the combustion and/or a further combustive event provides the power to compress a successive fuel/combination-supporting gas mixture, such that a successive cycle of operation of the device may be performed without requiring manual compression of a fuel-combustion-supporting gas mixture by the user.

  • Publication number: 20060169278
    Abstract: A delivery device for and method of delivering substance, the delivery device comprising: a delivery outlet (7) from which substance (5) is in use delivered; a gas chamber (17) containing a gas and being of reducible volume, wherein a reduction in the volume of the gas chamber (17) to a predeterminable volume acts to pressurize the contained gas to a predeterminable pressure; a seal element (11) disposed between the gas chamber (17) and the delivery outlet (7); and an opening mechanism configured, on reduction of the volume of the gas chamber to a predeterminable volume, to open the seal element (11), whereupon a gas flow from the gas chamber (17) acts to deliver substance (5) from the delivery outlet (7).

  • Publication number: 20050082194
    Abstract: A blister pack dispensing device comprises a housing having first (10) and second (12) walls and containing a blister pack (23) and a movable frame (14). The first wall (10) has an array of apertures (11) which correspond to the array of blisters on the blister pack (23). The second wall (12) has an array of buttons (13) which are aligned with the apertures (11). Each button (13) is provided with a projection (22) while the frame (14) has corresponding apertures (15). The frame may be urged by a user to a first position in which the projections (22) on the buttons (13) are aligned with the apertures (15) to allow the buttons (13) to be depressed to disperse the blister contents through the apertures (11). A spring (17) restores the frame (14) to a second position, when released by the user, such that the projection (22) are misaligned with the apertures (15) on the frame (14) and prevent the buttons (13) being depressed.

  • Patent number: 5725034
    Abstract: A pressurized fluid dispensing nozzle (110') such as for LPG is screw-threadedly engageable with a tank inlet (192) such as on a vehicle. A sealing sleeve (154) carrying a nose piece (140') is biassed into abutment with a gasket (194) on a seal face (196) of the tank inlet and is urged rearwardly by the abutment. The sealing sleeve (154) is slidably mounted on a sealing member (136') which is urged rearwardly with the sealing sleeve (154) into a valve actuating condition. A trigger (118') is actuated to open a valve assembly (120') by shifting the valve assembly forwardly to bring a valve body (126') into abutment with an actuator (132') on the sealing member (136) which lifts the valve body off a valve seat (128'). The pressurized fluid passes along a passage (146') through the sealing member (136') to be dispensed but part of it enters a chamber (150) through ports (134').
