  • Publication number: 20250019161
    Abstract: The modular and adjustable system repairs structural damage or proactively prevents future damage to the upright frames of industrial pallet racks. The system includes several components to repair damage to pallet racks having a variety of shelf and upright connection types at various heights and depths. An angular adjustable strut may be fitted between a replacement column and the floor to provide additional stability without overloading a repaired component of the pallet rack. Additionally, a cuff provides further adjustability for small differences between manufacturers or field installation conditions such as shimming at the floor. In combination, the system transfers various forces on the pallet rack below the original repair back to the floor.

  • Publication number: 20240220602
    Abstract: Environment type validation can provide a tamper-resistant validation of the computing environment within which the environment type validation is being performed. Such information can then be utilized to perform policy management, which can include omitting verifications in order to facilitate the sharing of policy, such as application licenses, from a host computing environment into a container virtual computing environment. The environment type validation can perform multiple checks, including verification of the encryption infrastructure of the computing environment, verification of code integrity mechanisms of that computing environment, checks for the presence of functionality evidencing a hypervisor, checks for the presence or absence of predetermined system drivers, or other like operating system components or functionality, checks for the activation or deactivation of resource management stacks, and checks for the presence or absence of predetermined values in firmware.
