Abstract: A modular slide for use on a staircase includes at least a first slide module with an entry section having an entry surface defining a seat and a gripping surface substantially opposite the entry surface. The modular slide also has a ramp section with an elongated surface extending from the entry section towards a terminal end of the ramp section, an underside being configured to rest upon portions of the staircase, and two opposing sidewalls spanning both the ramp section and the entry section and having an upper edge defining a handrail. An identical second slide module is configured to overlap and integrate with an upper portion of the first slide module to form a continuous slide surface and a continuous handrail of an extended modular slide.

Abstract: Aspects described herein include methods, apparatuses, and non-transitory computer-readable storage mediums for operating a germicidal lighting device. A target environment is monitored for one or more people. In response to the monitoring indicating the presence of one or more people, the lighting device is caused to operate in an occupied target environment operating mode including causing the lighting device to emit far-UVC light at a given intensity into the target environment for a first period of time; and, in response to expiry of the first period of time, causing the lighting device to emit far-UVC light at a different intensity to the given intensity into the target environment for a second period of time.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance apparatus comprising: a magnetic system configured to provide a magnetic field throughout at least a portion of a cavity, the magnetic field based on magnetic-system-control-data; a transmitter antenna disposed at least partly within the cavity and configured to transmit radio-frequency-transmitted-signalling based on transmitter-control-data; and a receiver antenna disposed at least partly within the cavity and configured to receive radio-frequency-received-signalling representative of magnetic resonance interactions of at least one object, disposed within the portion of the cavity, with the magnetic field and the radio-frequency-transmitted-signalling; wherein, at least one of the transmitter antenna, the receiver antenna and the magnetic system comprises a plasma antenna, and the magnetic resonance imaging apparatus is configured to provide received-data representative of the radio-frequency-received-signalling, the received-data in combination with the magnetic-system-control-data and

Abstract: An apparatus for blocking discharge from a flanged pipe coupling, including a strap configured to surround, and cover a gap between flanges. The apparatus includes a tensioning mechanism with a lever pivotally coupled to the strap, a clamp pin mounted on the opposing end of the strap, and an adjustment pin on a side of the clamp pin opposite the lever. Holes extend through ends of the clamp and adjustment pins. The tensioning mechanism includes a bolt having ends, and a mid-portion looped around the lever, so that portions of the bolt on opposing ends of the mid-portion are generally parallel and project through the holes. A fastener is mounted onto each bolt end on a side of the adjustment pin opposite the clamp pin. When the lever pivots away from the clamp pin, contact between the lever and bolt urges the ends of the strap together, increasing tension therein.

Abstract: An anti-theft system for preventing removal of a light bulb when installed in a socket housing of a light fixture. The anti-theft system includes an anti-theft collar configured to mechanically engage with the light bulb and the socket housing. The anti-theft collar includes a wall portion configured to enclose at least a portion of the light bulb and at least a portion of the socket housing. The anti-theft collar also includes one or more features configured to inhibit rotation of the light bulb with respect to the anti-theft collar when the anti-theft collar is installed. The anti-theft collar also includes one or more features configured to inhibit movement of the anti-theft collar with respect to the socket housing of the light fixture.

Abstract: An anti-theft collar for preventing removal of a light-emitting diode (LED) bulb having cooling fins when the LED bulb is installed in a socket housing of a light fixture. The anti-theft collar includes a wall portion configured to enclose at least a portion of the LED bulb and at least a portion of the socket housing. The anti-theft collar also includes a pair of ribs configured to engage with the cooling fins to inhibit rotation of the LED bulb with respect to the anti-theft collar when the anti-theft collar is installed. The anti-theft collar also includes one or more features configured to inhibit movement of the anti-theft collar with respect to the socket housing of the light fixture.
