Abstract: A cutting bit assembly for attachment to a tool holder of a milling-type machine includes a cutting tip, a generally cylindrical shank extending from the cutting tip and comprising a rotation-limiting surface, and a spring clip surrounding a body of the shank. The spring clip includes a protrusion configured to interact with the rotation-limiting surface of the shank to limit rotation of the shank relative to the spring clip. The spring clip includes a contracted configuration and an expanded configuration, and in both the contracted configuration and the expanded configuration the protrusion interacts with the rotation-limiting surface.

Abstract: A cutting bit assembly for attachment to a tool holder of a milling-type machine, including a cutting tip, a generally cylindrical shank extending from the cutting tip, a spring clip surrounding a body of the shank and including a contracted configuration and an expanded configuration, and a washer having an installed configuration in which the washer is disposed on a shoulder of the shank and an uninstalled configuration in which the washer surrounds the spring clip and retains the spring clip in the contracted configuration. At least one of a distal edge of the spring clip or a proximal edge of a bore of the washer comprises a bevel or radius.

Abstract: An architecture for receiving and responding to requests in a vehicle system may include transmitting requests to a remote processing system configured to verify the authenticity of requests and determine responsive actions. The action jobs may be maintained at a location remote from the vehicle, and the vehicle may be configured to retrieve action jobs from the remote location.

Abstract: Provided is a brace including upper and lower frame members and upper and lower cuff members. An upper adjuster is coupled to the upper frame member and upper cuff member and is configured to enable selective adjustment of the distance between the upper frame member and the upper cuff member. An upper connector is coupled to the upper frame member and the upper cuff member and is configured to enable selective engagement between the upper frame member and the upper cuff member. A lower adjuster is coupled to the lower frame member and the lower cuff member and is configured to enable selective adjustment of the distance between the lower frame member and the lower cuff member. A lower connector is coupled to the lower frame member and the lower cuff member and is configured to enable selective engagement between the lower frame member and the lower cuff member.

Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for facilitating the creation and management of marketing campaigns, as well as the delivery of advertisements associated with those campaigns. Some embodiments provide a Mobile Marketing Platform (“MMP”) configured to determine an audience profile based on received marketing campaign information (e.g., delivery time, demographic information, ad copy). The determined audience profile describes a market segment that is expected or predicted to respond positively to the marketing campaign. The MMP then receives an indication that a particular user is accessing a resource (e.g., content item, Web site, mobile application). The MMP then compares the attributes of the user (e.g., demographics, location, device type) with multiple stored audience profiles and select the audience profile that best matches the user and his associated attributes. The MMP then serves an advertisement of the marketing campaign associated with the selected audience profile.

Abstract: A joint protecting brace includes a cuff member. The cuff member includes a pair of upper lateral and lower lateral tightening portions positioned on opposed sides of a cuff longitudinal axis. The cuff member further includes a liner disposed between and coupled to the upper lateral tightening portions and lower lateral tightening portions and extending along the cuff longitudinal axis. The cuff member further includes a connector coupled to a latitudinal strap. The cuff member further includes a first adjuster coupled to the upper lateral tightening portions and the connector. The cuff member further includes a second adjuster coupled to the lower lateral tightening portions and the connector. The first and second adjusters are disposed in tension for adjusting a distance between the upper and lower lateral tightening portions respectively. The first and second adjusters are communicable via the connector.

Abstract: The invention provides a device for protecting ligaments in a knee joint of a user. The device includes a knee brace positionable about a knee joint of a user and a boot wearable on a foot of a user. Additionally, the device includes a flexible tether member including a first coupling element coupled to the knee brace and a second coupling element coupled to the boot. The boot and knee brace are attachable and detachable via the first and second coupling elements. The flexible tether member is adjustable in length to dispose the flexible tether member in tension at least in a portion of a maximum foot range of rotation, where the maximum foot range of rotation of the user's foot relative to the knee joint causes hyperextension of a knee ligament.
