Abstract: A thermoplastic polyurethane foamed article has a plurality of bubbles distributed throughout the thermoplastic polyurethane foamed article and comprises a thermoplastic polyurethane composition and an epoxy-functional styrene acrylic copolymer which are foamed in the presence of a blowing agent. The epoxy-functional styrene acrylic copolymer is present in an amount ranging from 0.1 to 5% of the total combined weight of the thermoplastic polyurethane composition and the epoxy-functional styrene acrylic copolymer. The thermoplastic polyurethane foamed article has an average diameter of the plurality of bubbles ranging from 50 to 120 ?m with at least 75% of the plurality of bubbles having a diameter of less than 200 ?m.

Abstract: A method of operating a tilting carrier assembly includes operating a conveyor in a primary direction of travel and supporting a work piece from the conveyor by a pair of links. A pair of respective upper connection points of the links are laterally spaced transverse to the primary direction of travel and a pair of respective lower connection points of the links are also laterally spaced. The work piece is conveyed along the primary direction of travel relative to a work station, and the upper connection points are tilted so that a line therebetween forms a first angle relative to horizontal. In response, the lower connection points and the work piece are tilted to a second angle relative to horizontal, and the second angle is greater than the first angle.

Abstract: A tilting carrier assembly for a finishing process includes a load bar configured to convey a work piece relative to a work station. A skid is configured to receive the work piece. Each of a pair of links is pivotally coupled to the load bar at a first end and pivotally coupled to the skid at an opposite second end. A horizontal span between the first ends of the pair of links is substantially greater than a horizontal span between the second ends of the pair of links.

Abstract: A method of processing a work piece having an enclosure. The method comprises inserting a siphon into the enclosure, submerging the work piece in an immersion tank, removing the work piece from the tank, and draining liquid from the enclosure through the siphon. Inserting can include positioning at least a portion of a short leg of the siphon in the enclosure of the work piece. Preferably, draining includes directing liquid back into the immersion tank. After draining, the work piece can be moved to a second workstation and/or the siphon can be withdrawn from the enclosure. The method can be performed using a finishing system comprising a primary carrier, a work piece suspended from the primary carrier and defining an enclosure, and a siphon positioned in the enclosure. Preferably, the work piece is suspended above an immersion tank. The siphon can be positioned to direct fluid toward the immersion tank.

Abstract: Input device configurations are described. In one or more implementations, an input device includes a sensor substrate having one or more conductors and a flexible contact layer spaced apart from the sensor substrate. The flexible contact layer is configured to flex to contact the sensor substrate to initiate an input of a computing device. The flexible contact layer includes a force concentrator pad that is configured to cause pressure to be channeled through the force concentrator pad to cause the flexible contact layer to contact the sensor substrate to initiate the input.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system comprise a server executing a computer-executable program being configured for receiving psychological profiling information, life experience information and tags at least comprising date information, comments and emotions for the life experience information from registered members of a life experience system. The server is further configured for processing the psychological profiling information, life experience information and tags to generate a psychological profile of the member and a timeline of the life experience information. A client executing a computer-executable application is configured for submitting the psychological profiling information, life experience information and tags to the server. The client is further configured for receiving from the server a home page in which the time line and the life experience information is accessible.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method comprise obtaining from a potential user a favorite selection of viewed presentations. User registration information is obtained from the potential user. Registration confirmation that the potential user has been accepted as a registered user and the registered user is entered into a contest is received. A message inviting potential users to view a presentation, become a registered user and participate in the contest, at least one contact name and an address for the contact name is obtained from the registered user. The message is sent to the contact name at the address. Status information at least indicating contacts accepting the invitation, points awarded in the contest for the acceptances and prizes available in exchange for points is received. A selection of at least one prize to be redeemed with the registered user's points is received from the registered user.
