Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed for socket interconnect structures and related methods. An example socket interconnect apparatus includes a housing defining a plurality of first openings and a plurality of second openings and a ground structure coupled to the housing. The ground structure defines a plurality of third openings. The third openings of the ground structure align with the second openings of the housing when the ground structure is coupled to the housing. A plurality of ground pins are located in respective ones of the second openings and third openings. The ground structure is to electrically couple the ground pins. A plurality of signal pins are located in respective ones of the first openings of the housing. The signal pins are electrically isolated from the ground structure.

Abstract: Erectable displays and methods of making such erectable displays are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a display apparatus including a shroud having a first sheet and a second sheet disposed in opposition to one another, the first sheet and the second sheet being connected to one another at a first end by a first joint and at a second end by a second joint. The display apparatus includes at least one support member disposed between the first and second sheets and between the first and second joints, the support member(s) being configured to outwardly bias the first and second sheets to cause the shroud to assume a curvilinear cross-sectional shape along at least a portion of a longitudinal axis of the shroud.

Abstract: In one example, a triangular display includes a first substrate, a second substrate coupled to and disposed in opposition to the first substrate, a first line of weakness formed along an axial direction of the first substrate to define a first section and a second section, a second line of weakness formed along an axial direction of the second substrate to define a third section and a fourth section and a former having a first side, the former extending between the first section and the third section, and in a deployed position, at least one of the first section or the second section has rotated about the first line of weakness and at least one of the third section or the fourth section has rotated about the second line of weakness to place the second section and the fourth section adjacent to the first side of the former.

Abstract: In one example, a quadrilateral display includes a shroud including a first section, a second section, a third section and a fourth section, the first section, the second section, the third section and the fourth section being rotatably disposed relative to adjacent ones of the first section, the second section, the third section and the fourth section and a plurality of anchors including a first anchor attached to the first section, a second anchor attached to the second section, a third anchor attached to the third section and a fourth anchor attached to the fourth section, the plurality of anchors being disposed in a first position within the shroud in a stowed position and a second position within the shroud in a deployed position.

Abstract: A filter medium capable of removing microorganisms from a fluid such as water. The filter medium includes particles of activated carbon, particles of a substantially insoluble inorganic material having an isoelectric point greater than the fluid being filtered. A low melt index binder, preferably with a melt index of less than about 1 gram per 10 minutes, binds the particles of activated carbon and particles of inorganic material, such that the binder will become tacky at elevated temperatures without becoming sufficiently liquid to substantially wet the particles of activated carbon and inorganic material.
