Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provided herein include systems, apparatuses, and methods for utilizing cleaning fixtures. The utilization of cleaning fixtures may be to clean one or more devices and/or device cases. In some embodiments the fixtures may be utilized in a system or apparatus having a plurality of stations, including a pairing station, scanning station, cleaning station, and testing station.

Abstract: A wearable multifunctional hands free pet carrier system seamlessly combines features of an adjustable bag for carrying a pet, with petting pockets, an in-vehicle restraint system, and a retractable leash. The petting pockets allow the user to touch and pet the animal directly while using the pet carrier system, thereby fostering bonds of attachment between pet owner and pet.

Abstract: A method for disposing of propellant containers containing a propellant, comprising submerging the propellant containers in a detonation suppressant liquid, shredding the propellant containers while submerged in the detonation suppressant liquid into shredded propellant container material reduced in size to provide release of the propellant from the propellant containers, and removing the shredded propellant container material from the detonation suppressant liquid. A system for disposing of propellant containers is also disclosed.

Abstract: A multifunctional baby carrier and diaper bag apparatus that seamlessly combines at least two essential baby products - permutations of a baby carrier and a diaper bag. Such an apparatus allows a user to wear each of the carried products separately, if desired, or simultaneously using a multi-purposed, interchangeable shoulder strap system.

Abstract: Apparatus and a method for decomposing a body of a deceased person, as an alternative to traditional cremation. The apparatus includes a primary vessel where the body is treated with a highly basic solvent to render the body into skeletal remains and liquid remains. A clamp is applied to the skull during processing for solvent access to the skull. A secondary vessel is used to receive the liquid remains from the primary vessel and further treat them. During this further treatment, the skeletal remains left in the primary vessel after the liquefied portion has been transferred to the secondary vessel, can be treated to be decolorized and deodorized, and then returned to the decedent's next of kin as ash-like material.

Abstract: Hazardous waste is treated by shredding and then passing the material through an enclosure by means of a conveyor through direct steam impingement. The enclosure is maintained at a pressure greater than or equal to atmospheric pressure in order to maintain steam temperature at or above 212° F. Pressure locks are positioned at an inlet and discharge of the enclosure. The pressure locks allow transport of waste material into and out of the enclosure while maintaining a pressure differential between the interior and exterior of the enclosure.

Abstract: A tabletop formed from slats for use in rigid, light-weight tables, such as portable banquet tables. The tabletop includes a center section formed from a plurality of open-channel, rectangular tubular slats that are laterally coupled together. Each slat has a top wall that aligns with top walls to form the upper working surface of the tabletop. Each slat also has downwardly-projecting sidewalls and a bottom wall with a longitudinal slot running the length of the slat to form the rectangular, downwardly-orientated channel. The adjacent contacting sidewalls of adjacent slats coupled together to form substantially vertical support beams. The tabletop further includes a pair of elongate end caps disposed on opposite ends and spanning the plurality of slats of the center section, with each end cap having a plurality of finger pairs extending into the plurality of slats with a center slot the receives a support beam therein.
