Abstract: A materials handling vehicle comprises a distributed processor system including a vehicle network that facilitates an exchange of information with vehicle electronic components, and a distributed multi-processor vehicle control architecture. The distributed multi-processor vehicle control architecture includes an embedded information core having a core processor communicably coupled to the vehicle network, and a tablet having a tablet processor, where the tablet is communicably couplable to, and detachable from the distributed multi-processor vehicle control architecture. When the tablet is detached from the distributed multi-processor vehicle control architecture, the core processor functions as a primary processor that communicates with vehicle electronic components by communicating therewith across the vehicle network.

Abstract: The invention consists of a combination of a golf club and a telescoping support assembly. The support assembly has an inner tube connected to a support section which is designed to be inserted into an outer tube that is inserted into the hollow handle end of a golf club at the vent hole of a grip. The purpose of the support assembly is to hold the grip of the club above the ground at a height sufficient to keep the grip from becoming wet. The outer tube is retained inside the handle end of the golf club by a barbed shoulder integral to the outer tube which engages with the vent hole of the grip. This prevents the outer tube from being inadvertently pulled out of the grip. The outer tube is of sufficient length to prevent the hinge between the inner tube and support section when stowed inside the outer tube from excessive movement inside the club grip and shaft.
