  • Publication number: 20220338564
    Abstract: A pair of tights specially designed for the wearer to self-adjust the waist for fit, adjust compression, adjust for waist training, adjust lower abdominal support, and adjust lower lumbar back support. The localized compression effect is configured and adjusted by a textile piece attached at the left side area of the back waistband that can cross the front of the abdomen to the left and a textile piece attached at the right-side area of the back waistband that can cross the front of the abdomen to the right. The two textile pieces that cross the body are anchored from the opposite side areas of the waistband creating a compression and opposite horizontal pull across the back and can be adjusted to attach across the front of the body. The configuration of the waistband and adjustable textile pieces allows a wearer to self adjust the fit.

  • Patent number: 11372624
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for obtaining a content theme that includes a set of visual components and accessing control panels of a design system. The control panels are configured to provide control functions for adjusting attributes of the components. The control panels receive a selection of a first component that is linked to at least a second component in the set of visual components. An attribute of the first component is adjusted in response to detecting user interaction with a control panel. The user interaction causes adjustment of an attribute of a second component based on the adjusting of the attribute of the first component because of the second component being linked to the first component. Graphical content is created for output at a display based on the adjusted attributes of the first and second components.

  • Patent number: 10802841
    Abstract: Providing a user interface (UI) on a web page. A toolbar section is defined on the web page. The web page includes a content section being different and separate from the toolbar section, and the content section displays additional content of the web page. One or more groups are specified to include one or more action controls associated therewith. Each of the specified groups has a group identifier associated therewith. The one or more action controls are displayed according to the specified groups in the toolbar section of the web page. Each of the one or more displayed action controls includes properties associated therewith, and the included properties define at least one of the following: a name of the action control, a link of the action control, the group identifier of the action control, and a classification identifier of the action control.

  • Patent number: 10035246
    Abstract: One example of the present disclosure relates to a tool for releasing a cable tie. The tool includes a front member having a front indexing surface and a front extension member. The tool includes a rear member movably coupled to the front member, with the rear member including a rear indexing surface and a rear extension member. When the front member and the rear member engage a head of the cable tie in a closed state, the front extension member protrudes into an opening in the head, in an insertion direction, a front extension distance that is less than the length of the head minus a distance from the rear surface to a pawl of the cable tie along the insertion direction, and spaces a contact portion of the pawl, along a transverse direction, by a distance sufficient to disengage the cable tie.

  • Patent number: 9703201
    Abstract: A method of selectively exposing a liquid photopolymer printing blank to actinic radiation to create a relief image printing plate. The printing blank is produced by (i) placing a photographic negative on a bottom glass platen and placing a coverfilm over the negative, (ii) disposing a layer of liquid photopolymer on top of the coverfilm and negative, and (iii) placing a backing sheet over the liquid photopolymer layer. The method includes the steps of scanning a light bar across an upper surface of the liquid photopolymer printing blank through the backing sheet to cure the layer of liquid photopolymer in selected areas, creating islands of cured polymer adjacent to the backing sheet, and imaging the photopolymer through the bottom of the liquid photopolymer printing blank to crosslink and cure selective portions of the liquid photopolymer and create a relief image therein. The relief image is created on the cured islands.

  • Publication number: 20160263008
    Abstract: A method for forming a large particle complex comprising the steps of combining a hydrolyzed corn starch polymer, a starch/cellulose polymer, a hydrogenated phospholipid, and gum arabic in a cosmetically acceptable carrier to form a premix composition; heating said premix to about 85° C. for about 15 minutes; and cooling the composition to room temperature. The particle complex is useful as a component of a sprayable composition which provides volumizing, hair fixing, and conditioning as a leave-on treatment for human hair.
